Movies have bigger budgets. There are way better looking movies.
I think by current new anime I meant tv shows not movies but yeah Summer Wars and Sword of the Stranger are legit.

Still so damn good. Is there any current new anime that looks as good as this or would that level of animation be too expensive?
Not sure if it was quite this level but Dennou Coil looked great for a TV series, and god why hasn't that show been localized yet?
i'm gonna need to see it in motion first before making judgement.
Love the body designs and artstyle, but the eyes look a bit too same-y with each character. Makes the characterization of the character designs a tad lacking, but again, it could be good. I remember not liking Steins;gate eyes when I first say them in images and artwork, but in motion and in the anime it was fantastic.
As for everyone talking about Tamers 2 in the first few pages, I don't think i could handle the feels. Damn tamers was hard to watch sometimes :'(

If it turns out even just slightly under average, based on its history and popularity in the US, it seems more than likely one of them will pick it up. Adult Swim will need another popular anime to replace Bleach after all.

I only watched up until Tamers, and I don't remember anything like that either, I'm just wondering since they might be aiming this at a different audience.
I'm surprised you don't know what I'm talking about, but relying on panty-shots, dumb character designs for the female characters, weird-ass incest storylines, etc.

Comparing movies to standard anime isn't really fair, but there are tons of recent shows that were on that level, shit like Ping Pong Animation-

I don't get what some of you guys mean when you say the characters look too similar.
They all look pretty distinct to me.

If you told me that was character designs for Persona 5, I would believe you.

I'd contest that notion, as would quite a few others. Those shows might not have enjoyed much popularity, but they were still great shows to watch.

Don't know who Venusmon is, but other than some scantily clad Digimon there wasn't really anything really annoying as far as fanservice is concerned.
I kinda don't expect there to be anything in this new season either. Just because the protagonists are older that doesn't mean we're more likely to get shitty fanservice.

Whoah that's some Kid Story animatrix kinetic shit...I must watch this.
Something causes the timeline to split or their destinies to change, and we'll have a better epilogue. Believe.
Yeah, I don't recall anything too ridiculous in the first two seasons, and I don't exactly have the highest tolerance for that stuff. But I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Mimi looks fucking amazing, as expected.
Fanservice is nothing new to digimon.
*Warning: somewhat NSFW* This is a kids show in Japan
Considering the audience and the general state of anime today, we're getting some form of fanservice.

Duh, I meant if there was an anime tv show that was as good looking as that digimon movie, and the post was pretty obvious that I wasn't expecting an anime tv series to top a mamoru hosoda movie.I think that clip you first indicated was from Our War Game, which was a movie

That picture looks great and is hitting me right in the nostalgia.
So this is a show or a movie? When does it air?

That was deeply stupid.
(Not your post, the webm).
Anyway, other than the usual suspects like Angewoman and LadyDevimon, I doubt it'll be terribly fanservice-y. There'll probably be a hot springs gag in there somewhere, tho.
Ah, sorry. Got confused
I hope so.
Sora deserved to be a soccer or tennis star. All the female characters got shafted in the ending. Yolei a housewife, Sora a fashion designer, Mimi a cook(IF ANYONE IS A DESIGNER IT SHOULD BE HER) and Kairi a teacher which was probably the only decent one.Mimi is so damn flawless. She's seriously the best.

Yes you must.
Welcome to the sad state of a lot of anime today. It seems like there is a whole lot more pandering to a certain demographic of the anime community. It could just be me and my nostalgia glasses, but that's how I see it. It is what it is.
I do think that the new art style is nice though. Maybe we'll get something different.

If anyone should have been a cook, it was Matt.
Sora started getting shafted when the writers started pretending that being a tomboy wasn't a major part of her character.
Mimi lived in New York. She should have been a fashion designer.
Doesn't always mean fanservice.
Remember in Season 1, episode 17, the girls were in just towels for part of the episode. (Episode titles: Illusive Captain Cockatrimon (JP), The Crest of Sincerity (EN)).
If you don't consider that fanservice, a hot spring scene/gag doesn't need to/mean fanservice.

From what Digimon show is that even? Probably something 'newer' I haven't seen.
And nah, fanservice is no guarantee whatsoever. A good show that doesn't need and want to rely on that shit won't have it. From this current season for example, I can't recall much if any fanservice in 'Shirobako' and 'Parasyste'.
There's a bunch of it in F/SN UBW but *surprise* the show's also shit...and well has its origin in an eroge VN.
Digimon Adventure never needed fanservice and neither will this new season if its equally well written and directed. Even if there's a higher chance we get some nudity or so because the characters' average age is higher, that still doesn't mean it's going to be there or has to be fanservice.
That said, I'm gonna shake my head in disappointment if we get some creep-camera zooming in on a showering Sora or s.th. If the show's going to sink so low though, I'll most likely be disappointed already anyways!

Not always, but more often than not it is. And actually, that episode was why I'm guessing we'll get one this time around, as a callback.

Tamers 2 after Adventure Tri please.
I loved that season. The cards were kinda unnessecary but the new three-protagonists dynamics made it really interesting.

I barely noticed the direction in Katanagatari. It felt extremely dull and lifeless.
