Yeah but sometimes it isn't perma (and you always need animations to fill spaces even if less people use it) and the animation actually has a hidden detail as if you get hit a second time while in the animation the shield she raises up actually makes her get reduced damage and knock back slightly as she blocks it
@dayia_kioku I both wasn't comparing them and find that to be a dumb argument. The same base princible of having redundancies as failsafes applies to both 2D and 3D games. The only difference is that the FGO likely treats these boss mechanically like player units so it has these animations in place to prevent crashes in case of unlikely scenarios. Where with ZZZ we are talking about actual character animations that the player is indeed likely to see since not every player is going to have a perfact track record with tanky characters.
The fact that Lighter and Lycaon did not use their backs for support but only their arms to do a pirouette makes them look very acrobatic and cool, I love it.
I love how Nicole’s knees falter for a second before she gathers her strength and stands back up. Her knees never touch the ground, but she suddenly has to gather herself to stop herself from falling. It’s a really cool way to show physical weakness in a game very much about playing as extremely capable people
I also like how her animations work in the weight of her suitcase, it feels properly weighty and in the animation here she has to kick her legs out to complete her flip and pull the suitcase along.
The main thing is that each character has their very own model, so it makes much more sense they have their own animations for every actions. It also makes a lot of sense as to why the game started with such a big HDD requirements.
Well I mean, they could've just slapped the same 5 animations on all the similar characters, but they went the extra mile because they care about the details.
@KaminariHouse exactly a big part of ZZZ is stylish animations so every one of them has to pop or it would break the vibe they are attempting with their characters. Granted not that this would be a knock against genshin as their battle and overworld animations are a conquence of them taking the technical route. Though things get complicated when you take cutscenes into the picture. Edit:Should note I'm talking about both cinematics and general cutscenes, because technically speaking genshin has better general cutscenes, excluding the comic scenes for now, despite how infamously stilted their animations are because it can do the same role that that ZZZ needs 3 of the four kinds of cutscenes it has with how it handles their cutscenes. Granted while genshin does have good cinematics as well, ZZZ does a better presentation overall sinceit uses its cinematics much more often and utilizes the comic sequences to cover cover the inherent weaknesses of its other to cutscene types.
One detail that really sticks out to me here is how Nicole recovers with an impressive ground spring, but then drops a bit before standing up. Actually showing that her weapon is quite heavy for her so she has to arrest its momentum separately or it'd keep going and pull her over.
Surprised no one's talking about how much gnarlier these look in slow motion. A lot of the girls especially look like they either landed on their heads or strained their necks.
I love the detail about Seth putting his shield into a defensive position and it extending. Really interesting tidbit that caught my eye. Same for Caesar too.
Corin is the most impressive for me. She falls safely, while everyone does a flip that might wreck their neck, then a slight rotation and flip, still holding her massive saw. That was very elegant
Was gonna say the same thing. I love the detail that her saw is what causes her to rebound, you can even see the blades spinning when it happens. And then her little pose she does as she's standing up, it's all adorable
Corin is the only one that actually falls to the ground and doesn't do a roll to quickly get up, she just does an unnecessary flip from the ground. This animations are so fast, I wonder how people would notice these details without slowing down the footage.
It's in character cuz she's clumsy, and it's also in character that she recovers after facetanking the ground like it's nothing cuz she's physically strong
I like how anby absorbs the impact almost immediately and recovers with little unnecessary movement and the same with soldier 11 even if she did do a flip but recovers real quick. Yeah it's like anby really might be Soldier 11's lost superior according to theories.
The fact that they could have just been cool animations like the others but they added the detail that anby and soldier both land into their shoulders to recover would imply they both have formal training
They look really close both have white hair and their combat style is very similar she might be some sort of clone and anby is likely to have military experience too
I like how some of them immediately assume a defensive position in case of an eventual follow up attack after recovering. Caesar and Seth are the obvious ones because they have shields but Billy, Ben, Lighter and Lycaon do it as well. Billy puts his shoulder forward and blades his body, Ben covers his head with his weapon, Lycaon rises up his leg because that's how he blocks attacks, same for Lighter and his gauntlet ! Very cool detail !
Yeah! And some of them instinctively assume a counter stance like Anby and Soldier 11 reaching out to their sword for a quick draw, and the little detail on Jane Doe putting one foot out in case she wants a quick slash while rolling back. Love the details these animators put!
I love Jane throwing in some forward splits and a spin in her recovery. Truly the queen of playing off her screw ups with a "Yeah I totally meant to do that this is all part of my plan."
@@user-ee6lk1pb6w Sadly it's reasons like that why Ben will be the only agent with that Model. With Agents now able to walk in the overworld they will never make a clipping monster like Ben ever again.
Anby: trained to use arms to protect the head Nicole: instinctively tucks head to land on shoulder blades Billy: eats the pavement like it's grandma's blueberry pie
@@ivorayGrace would never be a charge character she would never be (it absolutely makes sense that she would be [4]6P is the nail gun and [2]8K is the spin kick
5:059:43 I love how the shield (caesar and seth) characters instantly raise their shield up when they get back on their legs to mitigate any extra damage they take until they can attack back again (and for Caesar she actually does take reduced damage during this state and slightly blocks any incoming attack which is so cool!!) Really cool detail overall!
Ben getting hit hurts the most personally because he takes the full force. Which is worst then getting thrown by a hit in my experience IF you know how to catch yourself
I feel like a lot of people are overlooking how Seth rebounded with the force of ONLY ONE ARM which was strong enough that HE HIMSELF struggled to steady his landing
@@LeBeau_42 just look at his bio ingame, he's officially lynx thiren but it seems zzz devs want to give him long tails which is why he mistaken as maine coon
You it'd be funny if for one future character they just... don't get up. Like they don't die and ragdoll, they just stay unconscious until you do a keystroke.
it's the little things like this shows that the devs really poured soul into this game like, theyd didnt have to do this at all but they just did it because they can
This is the reason why people think zzz lacks in content compared to hsr and especially genshin, because nearly every single action is independently animated for every single character. I think that's also why only one A rank character has been added in roughly 200 days (I'm including v1.4 because no A rank was announced)
I don't know, honestly I feel it's good. If i'm being honest with you, it quite reminds me the great gems from PS2 but in the format of a decent Gacha.
new character=content? tf u on about? zzz has argueably more content than hsr and way more skill bases than having 5 star characters and stats to auto battle through everything
@@goodietwoshoes7238to be fair it should have. The reason it wasn’t is because it was not originally intended. So they had to do more technical stuff to make it work. Having complex models is a terrible excuse for this not being available on launch
@@cynthiahembree3957 why should it have? it's just a fun flavor thing, it doesn't affect gameplay or narrative at all, and you teleport back to being wise/belle when you interact with anything.
Caesar must be my favorite. She doesn't have any cool recovery flips or anything like that, but as soon as she regains her footing she covers herself with her shield and remains in crouched position for a bit longer to block off any follow-up attacks. Love the detail.
Burnice, Soldier 11, Caesar, Anby and Ellen Joe have the right idea, a forward roll to break the momentum, not falling on their backs, preventing injury.
Anby's tuck and roll into a leaning squat and hand on the hilt of her blade is such a cool move. Even when disadvantaged, she's always alert and ready to fight/defend herself if needed be. Dem Obol squad be crazy good in athletics and stamina.
HI3 also does this. One thing both it and ZZZ (and perhaps other action game gacha like them but im not talking about them) include that most people overlook are these uncommon animations in normal gameplay, such as knockback or resetting the stance from an incomplete combo. They often say a lot about the character in question and most people dont even look.
Corin's is almost the most realistic here out of all these backturn knockback animations if you ask me and I like that touch. (Side note, for a normal front-faced knockback, Yanagi's more realistic by letting her back slide off.) She literally _slams_ into thr ground, but unlike everyone who recovers quick, she takes her time to recover properly and ensure she can stand without buckling. Her first animation is literally a Dodge Roll from Kingdom Hearts - extending her left arm out to help her size up distance to properly twist her body to land on her back, then letting the momentum turn her back up as she pushes herself off the ground into a jump. The jump is practically the one unrealistic bit here - but you have to remember that with enough arm strength, awareness, skill, and momentum, you can indeed jump off with your arms to stand back upright.
idk if i’m grasping at straws, but it looks like every faction has a similar way of getting up excluding the cunning hares. Belobog uses their weapons in some way to help them get up, like how Anton drives his bro into the ground, grace uses her idk weapon thing to help her get up, koleda pushes the hammer against the ground and ben, well, ben doesn’t get knocked down. The criminal investigation squad all spring up and back by lashing their legs out, probably due to taking similar training. Jane adds her twist to it with the little spin at the end, maybe adding on to her figure skating moves. The sons of calydon adjust their weapons after getting hit, then are all using a similar technique to pubsec to jump up, perhaps imitating their fighting style or that it’s just standard eridu “way of getting up” idk. But to me it seems piper, lucy and caesar all seem weighed down a bit by their weapons or i’m seeing things. Section 6 both do a small flip, and i have nothing to compare Soldier 11’s to, but if i must, she squats down and gets ready to draw her weapon very similar to anby. I am an avid supporter of the soldier 11 and anby theory. The cunning hares meanwhile are very different and i couldn’t really find a pattern, maybe it’s cuz they are just a bunch of random people. (sorry for the paragraph it will happen again lmao)
I do appreciate that characters with shields make an effort to raise their shields once they are knocked down and not just have them flail around aimlessly behind them.
I thought Burnice's didn't have as much flare as I expected, but with flammable and/or explosive canisters on your back, I'll bet you'd be keeping them upright as much as you could too lol
I love how characters with heavier weapons have to adjust due to the extra weight or how some use them to steady themselves. It's also cool to see some characters stumble slightly when standing up and having to readjust
I think the only improvement I could think of to make for Caesar's would be to have her shield take the force of the landing and push herself off of that.
I noticed this when i first started playing and Nicole pushed herself backwards with the briefcase.. Add multiple frame perfect poses in finishes and you have a banger
Ben is the only one not falling into the floor and remaining on his two feet. ❤ Lycaon is impeccable as always. ❤ Also Rina is rolling over but never actually touches the floor. ❤ But I love Yanagi's slightly not graceful stumble. ❤ And... I just noticed this but holy crap Burnice's heels look awful to wear for combat.
I love how when piper recovers, she looks like she's about to go straight from that into smacking whoever knocked her over in the first place I also love how almost all of Lycaon's movements have some extra bounce to them, really sells the strength he has in his legs
learning judo for a few months and realise those are some serious f*cking skill for falling. They allway using their shoulder and then using their back like a wheel to reduce the momentum of the attack. I could do some easy falling animation of some character like Anby for example. That is the basic rolling of judo. Love how mihoyo did with even small detail like this. Very realistic.
This is why some agents like Zhu Yuan , Lycaon , Burnice , Ceaser and Yanagi , i personally never immediately get back to attack but wait for them finished theirs animation and then attacking. Not just because they look cool as F , but also show how calm they're when facing dangerous situation.
Most the characters recover so quickly by almost jait bounching off thr ground with their shoulder, it might make sense because the attack probably have alot of momentum or energy
I just realized that the reason the sound cues are triggered before the action hits is because light is always faster than sound in normal speed so for sound engineers to compensate, they have to shift the sounds a little bit earlier.

The criminal investigation squad all spring up and back by lashing their legs out, probably due to taking similar training. Jane adds her twist to it with the little spin at the end, maybe adding on to her figure skating moves. The sons of calydon adjust their weapons after getting hit, then are all using a similar technique to pubsec to jump up, perhaps imitating their fighting style or that it’s just standard eridu “way of getting up” idk. But to me it seems piper, lucy and caesar all seem weighed down a bit by their weapons or i’m seeing things. Section 6 both do a small flip, and i have nothing to compare Soldier 11’s to, but if i must, she squats down and gets ready to draw her weapon very similar to anby. I am an avid supporter of the soldier 11 and anby theory. The cunning hares meanwhile are very different and i couldn’t really find a pattern, maybe it’s cuz they are just a bunch of random people. (sorry for the paragraph it will happen again lmao)
Makes sense since the Cunning hares are mostly from different factions in the past.
Ben IS the weapon
I do appreciate that characters with shields make an effort to raise their shields once they are knocked down and not just have them flail around aimlessly behind them.
Everyone got graceful movements meanwhile Ben is just like “Hey, watch where you’re going!”
I thought Burnice's didn't have as much flare as I expected, but with flammable and/or explosive canisters on your back, I'll bet you'd be keeping them upright as much as you could too lol
How is it that they can do this for a mobile game but other AAA devs can't get people to walk

I love how characters with heavier weapons have to adjust due to the extra weight or how some use them to steady themselves. It's also cool to see some characters stumble slightly when standing up and having to readjust
Nekomata always landing on her paws 💖
even their running and walking animations are distinct. god zone zero
I think the only improvement I could think of to make for Caesar's would be to have her shield take the force of the landing and push herself off of that.
I have a feeling that I wouldn't survive trying to do most of these irl
I noticed this when i first started playing and Nicole pushed herself backwards with the briefcase.. Add multiple frame perfect poses in finishes and you have a banger
Felt it when Big Bigger barly moved.
Big bigger lol
i love the way how the animators animate weight in not only animations like this, but in cutscenes too
Lycaon flexing them legs
Ben is the only one not falling into the floor and remaining on his two feet. ❤
Lycaon is impeccable as always. ❤
Also Rina is rolling over but never actually touches the floor. ❤
But I love Yanagi's slightly not graceful stumble. ❤
And... I just noticed this but holy crap Burnice's heels look awful to wear for combat.
as a man who developed great balance by wearing high heels, I agree with you. Buy hey, at least there's some style in there v:v
13:20 Alexandrina refuses to let her cloth touch the ground
16:20 S11 did an absolute useless backflip
She's like Spiderman
leon kennedy
Maybe for distance. She's a trained soldier, right?
Hey that was a good opportunity to train she's not getting complacent
I love how when piper recovers, she looks like she's about to go straight from that into smacking whoever knocked her over in the first place
I also love how almost all of Lycaon's movements have some extra bounce to them, really sells the strength he has in his legs
Jane just gets completely folded and doesn’t even know which direction she’s facing for a bit 😂
the cunning hares have such good animations
Didn't notice that, now I know.😎😎
My people are........ All of them.😌😌👍👍
learning judo for a few months and realise those are some serious f*cking skill for falling. They allway using their shoulder and then using their back like a wheel to reduce the momentum of the attack.
I could do some easy falling animation of some character like Anby for example. That is the basic rolling of judo. Love how mihoyo did with even small detail like this. Very realistic.
I love the fact that yanagi slides a bit when she got hit and then gets up quickly
That's 360° of Jane was necessary
This is why some agents like Zhu Yuan , Lycaon , Burnice , Ceaser and Yanagi , i personally never immediately get back to attack but wait for them finished theirs animation and then attacking.
Not just because they look cool as F , but also show how calm they're when facing dangerous situation.
Loaded backshot
Love that you can feel the weight of Seth's shield because he staggers more than other characters to get his balance
Love how qingyi throws the staff in the air for a bit giving the idea she’s good at using pole arm weapons
Jezzus Christ the distance Qingyi covered on her recovery
It came with a tactical retreat.
Ah my favorite Belobog Industries character, Big Bigger.
It's like cat reflex by tapping the X button multiple times, but it's automatic.
Thanks for the video. You’re cool
Stinky backshot air 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Damn Zhu Yuan has a lot of defense in the back that it actually took her a few seconds before falling down 😅
Most the characters recover so quickly by almost jait bounching off thr ground with their shoulder, it might make sense because the attack probably have alot of momentum or energy
Grace hit it gracefully.
I just realized that the reason the sound cues are triggered before the action hits is because light is always faster than sound in normal speed so for sound engineers to compensate, they have to shift the sounds a little bit earlier.
4:00 elegant
What everyone else sees: “Wow that character looks weird with that animation type shit”
Me: *Every character receiving back pain*
The animation is so smooth and detail
