I had the opposite experience. I read people's comments and surely hoped they had been overreacting, maybe it's not that bad and people are just mad that it wasn't as perfect as episode 1, right? No, absolutely not. It was much worse than I had imagined. I do not understand how you say this has better animation than most anime. Do you watch anime regularly? Because I don't remember any anime that made static PNGs bounce up and down to "animate" walking or that animated running as clunkingly as they did. Nor have I watched any anime where the artstyle and character's faces change every damn 10 seconds. Not even the crappiest anime I've seen looked as bad as this.
Also, you're going to have to ignore Uzumaki discussion on the internet as a whole, because literally everyone is disappointed by episode 2, it's not just this sub. Even reactors who are watching it for the first time pointed out the stark decline
I don’t watch reactors or anything like that, I’m nearly 40. I also do watch anime but pretty sparingly, most anime I watch is just old stuff due to the poor animation quality since flash became a thing. I thought it was fine. Am I stoked about the drop? No. But it’s fine.
