Kim-Chan 41 Report post Posted September 3, 2011 The new style is pretty nice, but it is a bit shaper for my taste. I liked how that looked about pre-200 eps. Like the hair had more strands and the light coloring/shading. Conan looked cuter and Ran looked prettier Besides, I like how their eye color popped out a bit more. The REALLY early style was a cool retro style but the ears were a bit too big for my liking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akazora 293 Report post Posted September 4, 2011 In general, I like the newer style. Especially since the drawings for the anime aren't as sloppy as they used to be from around 500-600. After 600, they started to get a bit better, more like the movies. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parkur 165 Report post Posted September 7, 2011 I don't get why people complain about a crisper, clearer, art style 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wakarimashita 137 Report post Posted September 7, 2011 The older by far, especially colour wise. A detective anime with flashy colours just seems weird. Besides, I prefer hand-drawn animation to cheaper digitally made garbage. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kim-Chan 41 Report post Posted September 7, 2011 I don't get why people complain about a crisper, clearer, art style Not sure whether or not you are referring to me, but I'm not complaining. The new style is awesome, but doesn't it seem TOO clear? TOO shiny? or TOO angler/sharp? That's just my opinion, I hope no one thinks I dislike the new style, but I just stated some reason why other people may prefer the older style(s).

Aeyra 260 Report post Posted September 7, 2011 Newer one, definitely. The details are crisper, and the old one just wasn't to my taste. The art itself didn't suck me in until around... ... About Volume 26. I can't watch the first and second movies because I can't stand seeing the art for so long, but the new ones are just so pretty. Conan's cuter, Ran's prettier, Shinichi is more epic... *sigh* I like it sharp and clear. It'll never match up to the art of Death Note and the like, but I still love the newer style. :3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chekhov MacGuffin 1089 Report post Posted September 8, 2011 I prefer the newer style because it is more refined, the backgrounds and scenery look nicer, and they've done a bit towards correcting anime coloring errors (e.g. Haibara's auburn, Gin's silver), but the "rainbow tinted" hair colors on the characters bother me at times. Edit: I like it when the characters had slightly rounder faces and eyes though, but not like it was in the very beginning. I think I like the middle transition point.

detective-db 16 Report post Posted March 18, 2012 I prefer he new ones... ...even though my most favorite ep. is on the first part (season1) >>drawings are getting better >>stories are more challenging >>new characters Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stopwatch 36 Report post Posted March 18, 2012 I prefer around the 200, 300 episodes in terms of 300, 400 era generally having a lot less moments where, say, Conan looks the size of Takagi's head and stuff. One of my favourite animated cases is 347 because well, it looks so smooth and fits imo (I know that the person who did that episode is by far my favourite), though I know Wakari prob'ly thinks the animation round there was too childish, right? But, the old stuff without the bright colours, but still kind of... new-ish style animation is around the 200, 300 mark so I went for that (Also, I really like some of the openings around that point) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conanshinichi 15 Report post Posted April 3, 2013 When I wanted to watch the older anime episodes, I didn't know how much I missed. I just prefer it because it has like a different atmosphere to the new episodes, Can't really explain and more music is used in the other episodes and I think the newer episodes are getting a bit boring. What do you think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CurbsideGirl 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2013 Of course the new one have better quality. But I'd say the the early 2000s animation style was the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
