The shadows in Dahlia are all over the place, lol. I saw speculation that the animation had to be hastily redone due to a portion of the contracted animation work suspected to have been done by North Korean artists in violation of sanctions.
That’s wild. I’m already not a fan of outsourcing, because they seem to not even pay their own animators properly, but to even outsource to a NK studio is a new low. How cheap can you be?
In fairness to them, they probably contracted the work to a Chinese studio who then further subcontracted to a NK one. I imagine it might be difficult to keep track of all the web of subcontractors if your primary contractors aren’t up front with you about it.
Yeah, that’d make sense
