Mushikago no Cagaster

To start this out the story is a solid 8.5, as an Anime fan it earns that. Where Cagaster fails is Netflix's approach to CGI animation for their Anime's, it just doesn't work. The color is flat, there's a clear lack of illustration detail, and the character movement s is stiff. Look no other than Episode 5 to what this show could have been, through a series of flashbacks, the show switches to traditionally styled Anime animation techniques with what looks like 2D hand drawn animation. It's almost as if the show runners and lead animators are subtly saying "if you want traditional animation you only get it with flashbacks." As if they're saying that's a thing of the past. The 2D style that is shown briefly in episode 5 is beautiful and I wish the entire series was animated this way. If they do green light a season 2 -- season 1 ended well enough if that they may not -- they should consider learning from the mistake of CGI in season 1 and take their time to animate this the right way, which may lead to better action sequences as well.

Cagaster of an Insect Cage, a mix of zombies, Attack on Titan, and bad animation. What could have been. I'd recommend it if you need a quick binge.
