The writer thinks he's writing hunter x hunter but the fights aren't even that sophisticated. The artist is also a bit overly fascinated with male anatomy and it's kind of awkward to watch. I'm also very confused with the connection to the previous series which left off in a contradictory place. The pacing is the absolute worst part, since the narrator will start raving about something stupid, obvious, or not that special, and you'll have to listen to a 10 minute repeated rant about natural order, honor, or made up bs about the human body, and that's pretty much the whole show. They also spend a ridiculous amount of time animating very short seasons, which is a little pointless since there's so little action.

The story focuses around Piccolo and Gohan, which is very refreshing, and the story develops in a satisfying way imo.

I'm not saying it looked bad, but it did look worse, cheap, and unnatural. Plenty of anime uses CGI for characters, but in the good ones you don't notice (unlimited bladeworks for example). You definitely notice in this one. With drawn characters, artists are able to stretch things, add motion, and produce art that can better display movement. But the 3D makes the characters look stiff, lifeless, and like they're made of plastic. It honestly looks like a video game, and that's pretty offensive because this isn't a new series, it has a preexisting art style and they changed it, so of course that's an issue. I just don't think 3D animators are very talented, and I want them to stick to video games and Saturday morning Disney shows.
