You're right, it would be *the* remake to look forward to. But as it is? Not so much. It's clear nergal wanted to change things up with the designs, especially the MC, and that's just one of the issues. The "animation" in the remake is so heavily tweened it barely qualifies as animation. Having an artist draw a few works and then have them give those pics to another person that "inputs" them into some program to give them some quick "movement" is cheap and lazy. And it shows.
Don't get me wrong the animation on the original wasn't good. It was at best, okay, *if* that. But you could tell the person working on it was trying to actually animate. And the designs from the original, especially the women, had some charm and personality. The new designs look pretty but then all the women look similar in proportion - practically everyone has the same body - and lack depth. The whole remake feels, in a word, hollow.
She mentioned she does want to do some more reanimated scenes, including Ms Jennings. Can't wait.
