Cel animation will never come back

stfu u fat retard , nobody cares about that

This looks cool. What is about?

That has literally nothing to do with cels and digital themselves.

>why can't children work in coal mines anymore
>coal is garbage if it isn't mined by children
Outdated techniques are not magically superior to better ones.

>people who have skill and talent required for cel animation do not exist anymore
How would you know, have you ever worked on an anime and are knowledgeble about the current state studios and staff are in? Oh right, you don't you're just some foreigner who read a bunch of uninformed shit online and adapted it because he's gullible and easily influenced.

Why do you fags act like "cel animation" is some mystrious special technique that needs to be learned. You do realized the actual drawings were done on paper and then transfered onto cel using xerography right?

Eventually it will. Digital's made a lot of progress the last 30 years. CGI has gotten way better too. I'm admitting this as someone that still loves cel animation. I even have a fondness for the old Xerox era. Don't tell Yas Forums I like the Xerox era though.

Never said it was superior, just a shame we don’t have it anymore

The key animation part is unchanged from cel. Most artists still use pencil and paper. The biggest thing about cel is that the materials required are not made anymore.
That's a matter of stylistic choice, not an inherent limitation of digital. A good chief of digital photography would be able to imitate it to some degree, even if it's not perfect.

What is you take on old school methods with computers, hard core digital cell shading for lack of a better term. Where every every cell line is hand drawn on tablet and each cell is manually color declared? The only difference is the they have undo and pain bucket tools.
Note I am not talking about the common digital cell animation where the A.I. fills in most of it after they give it some key frames, as that lacks soul.

Digital's problem is that it's too clean.
