Representation of Animation

About sixty animation are shown at movie theaters in Japan this year.  Some of them including Hollywood films were already released.  As far as I am concerned, I don't much care for ones with 3D-type and video-game-type characters.  In other words, I prefer Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937) to "Toy Story" (1995) as a computer-animated film. 

It isn't a matter of my reminiscence about the good old days but the technique of the Manga, comic book/cartoon.  "Traditional" animation, whether or not it is difference of the number of exposures, gives the viewers more imagination of the story.  Computer-made animation seems to be too realistic.  It is like moving dolls or puppet.  I don't know exactly the difference of the production cost between them, and there are always the pros and cons of the representation, but I think one made by the computer doesn't give viewers dream and/or the taste of "a-castle-in-the air" at all.  The production staff of the Manga should realize that new technology is not always superior to old ones, and they should more focus on the quality of the story, seeking for fhe essence of the human being, rather than the image technique.     #YS
