First teaser trailer out, what do you think?

So far, it actually looks ok? I think the most jarring part for me was when he said gum-gum instead of gomu gomu. And maybe I just haven't been keeping up but it's coming out a lot sooner than I thought it would.

That CGI is probably my biggest gripe with this entire trailer. Because it could be improved so much with some alternate shots and cutting.

The goal should be to avoid the uncanny valley as much as possible - so it should be quick, and the focus of the shots should be on the parts that don’t stretch.

That shot alone would be improved by having it start on Luffy shouting “Gum Gum” like it does, and showing the arm stretch in away from the focus of the camera. Then, rather than rotating, cut to the point where his fist will end up and have it approach and stop, before pulling the camera with it to hit Alvida.

That’s legitimately 1 cut and alternate angle for much of the stretching footage. And I think it could have looked so much better. The other problem is how shiny the fist is, that’s not really how flesh reflects light, but I feel like that’s an easier fix in future seasons if we get them.
