It’s a topless girl with big tits bouncing up and down in the seat of Kanada’s motorcycle from [i]Akira[/i].

The above sentence describing the animation sounds like it’s hilarious, but it isn’t. The animation is rather lame and pointless and is anything but funny. It pains me to think that some computer animator went to great lengths to achieve technical perfection of the physical dynamics of titty-bounce. However, I may be missing some sort of point? For me, the animation seemed point[b]less[/b].

The concept of a topless girl with huge tits that jiggle while she bounces up and down in the seat of Kanada’s bike could have been presented in an amusing way. For instance, maybe we could see her face? Seeing someone’s face helps to determine that character’s emotional state and therefore elicit a response from the viewer. Another idea is have her grab the handlebars (as if she were grabbing the shoulders of a lover) with a look of combined suprise and pleasure on her face. Mixed emotions sometimes adds to irony. Even better, have Kanada himself step into the spotlight and spill his drink as he reacts with complete astonishment at the sight of some hot chicking getting off on his bike! Now [b]that[/b] would be humorous!

Or maybe to get to the point, it sucked and it wasn’t funny.

Why did I go on and on, criticising this four-second-long video clip? Because I’m a computer artist and animator myself. I’ve seen this kind of stuff before in art school. It’s not very good. Oh, sure, it [b]looks[/b] cool. But do you realise how much work went into making that 4-second clip? Entirely too much.

I’ll be keeping a close eye on this show. A very, very critical eye.
