No, I agree, but I left my opinion out of it since I have seen so many opinions thrown around even before the trailer and the early premiere that I'm even tired of my own at this rate, haha.

My friend and I discussed it after we attended the early premiere, and the coloring/animation decisions were our big problem. The backgrounds were nice, but the characters designs didn't look like a part of the world. There were also nice bits of whole animation undercut by other cheap ones. The ones that stuck with me the most were Jadeite's first appearance--he looked fine (everyone cheered), they animated the full creation of the baddie, the baddie minion herself looked more detailed--but then stuff like the compact looks like a literal painted still. There's also the dramatic space pan in the opening that was also in the trailer, for another.

I know a lot of people are miffed about the proportions, but this is the stuff I can't ignore, and the stuff that could actually be fixable to a degree. That's why I'm hoping they'll be improving later on.

Agreed on all points. There was a lot of weird inconsistency in the episode and not even where you would expect it, they had things that looked cheap even in their shots where all the money should have gone and yet random moments looked really good.

And the proportions are not my main issue either, I waited to see the animation despite not liking the designs for that very reason. There are certain things that could be tweaked in a minor way that could lead to amazing results. Right now the two things I really want is a little more expression and some better perspective on the faces.

Same. I hope they manage it, because I would like to see this at its best, even if its best isn't what I was expecting. Thinking back on it, the silhouette pieces for the breaks were my favorite part. I hope they make some posters or postcards for those pieces, because I would put those on my wall.
