One of the things that I absolutely love about the mp100 anime is how they decided to animate body language and facial expressions. Like I feel a lot anime won’t do it nearly as well as mp100. Idk how to make gifs but some examples would be like how Reigen moves and how the animators gave him a distinct posture compared to the other characters, or that scene in ep8 where right before ritsu starts to cry he does that face twitch people do when they’re holding back tears. There are way more examples but yeah. Even when I first started watching this show and I was still unsure how I felt about it, this was one of the first things I noticed. Idk I’m not really going anywhere with this, just sharing some thoughts.
OP? Yeah first off great post.
Second:
Their movements and expressions all flow to the weight of the character in the first gif the big muscular guy is put to a halt but weighs him down in contrast to Mob who is much lighter he is being tossed around and looks near weightless.
Another example is the oh so expressive Reigen. In the first gif he moves with confidence and purpose, the way his hips move as he tosses his coat on. He knows he looks like one bad bitch. However when he is nearly busted as a fraud his movements are more frantic but he stays in place trying to ground himself only moving to whisper
Then here is Mob, very tried and we can tell by his movements they are fummbly and slow then the telepathy club, they have a mission they move with vigor!
And my personal favourite. The expression says it all folks, he is desperate and trying not to cry
The animators didn’t hesitate bitch. And thank god they didn’t
[peter b voice] “it’s impossible to know when the middle of my life is, so i’ve decided to have an ongoing crisis”
peni has to actively avoid giving history spoilers
peni: “wow they haven’t used tech like this since world war IV” gwen, peter b, and miles: “world war what”
noir: “…wait there’s gonna be a world war II”
miles leaves little spiderman tags next to street art he likes
jefferson to spiderman: “officially, i don’t agree with your methods and think that vigilantism is a danger to society. unofficially? that was dope”
the mallet really does fit in miles’ pocket and he still can’t figure out how
miles: “hey question, if i get shot do i own the bullet? like, can i keep it?” peter b: “…miles did you get shot”
someone: “man spiderman’s so cool” ganke, remembering that time he found on miles crying on the ceiling during finals week: “mmhm. yeah. yep. he sure is”
the spideys are constantly comparing universe notes
there’s a heated berenstein bears vs berenstain bears debate
miles’s universe doesn’t have comic con, gwen’s doesn’t have spongebob, and peter b’s doesn’t have the beatles
noir doesn’t know what any of those things are, porker’s universe has all of them but they’re animals, and peni is beginning to realize that all of her friends are like. super old
miles: “i made you a friendship bracelet” gwen: “i’m not really a jewelry person” miles: “oh it’s cool you don’t have to wear-” gwen: “no i’m gonna wear it forever back off”
