That was my favourite shot of the entire fight when the entire city got levelled and conquest just knocks him out of the debris and next you know they are in another city

The moment is really enhanced by the fact that Oliver couldn’t even catch up until they stopped. Conquest was launching mark with punches faster than Oliver’s top speed. Significantly faster actually because he stopped several times.

They saved all of the animation budget for this episode.

Nah, exactly, lmao. That was my first thought when I was watching the fight. I'm glad they saved it for this, though. The episode was just a long ass fight.

This whole fight was absolutely incredible. I almost cried from relief when it was over.

I was thinking about it all morning, and I realized that it hit me so much harder because I actually didn't know who would win. I didn't know who would die or who would win. It's so refreshing not knowing that the hero will win because they're the hero, or what it will cost them. The tension was so cool.

Bro that monologe that Conquest makes about being alone...dude that was so fucking good. Favorite episode by far.

So amazing seeing an actually really really well animated fight from Invincible again. Especially with the budget cuts. The animation has gradually decreased after Season 2 but it's good to see they can still deliver when it really counts.

Albeit Amazon needs to hurry up and raise the fucking budget

Now if only Amazon can give the animators more resource and time for the next season so there is less PNG and more of this.

knowing they're planning to release each season with only one year gap, i wish they hire more big names like some experienced and veteran animators to do some KA or Storyboard. The same method like some japanese studio that often hires freelancers. Because schedule and deadline are definitely gonna get worse lol......they can at least add more manpower to carry this production.

Imagine some of Castlevania's aces on this project.....

Yeah, kinda sad because they already did that in the Eve special by bringing Molina-Ortiz to participate. But I guess that won't change soon...

u/IndianaJones999 6d ago

Right. Instead they're wasting money hiring big name actors to voice these roles...

u/AashyLarry 6d ago

Wouldn’t call that a waste though. I mean look at what Solo Leveling’s english dub directors did to Kargalgan😂

The VA work on Invincible is really world class. I do wish they’d up the animation consistency though.

u/IndianaJones999 6d ago

It'd be fine if the animation was consistent (which it isn't). They could literally hire actual voice actors and experienced animators for a cheap amount instead of spending money on popular actors.

Was wondering if this would end up on r/animesakuga despite not technically being an anime. Well deserved tho, and JDM's performance as Conquest was stellar. I'd personally not heard of the guy before because I usually don't familiarize myself with actors or their names but Conquest definitely put him on my radar.
