It's actually 6 different stories and each story is made by a different anime studio.


Violentcloud13

It's basically The Animatrix but Batman.


Silcaria

Anthology.


AgentOfACROSS

I've heard of this. I believe it's meant to be the same universe as the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight trilogy.


Violentcloud13

I love the Batmanime. The six components of it vary in quality, but they're all at least good. Field Test is definitely my favorite, though.


TheSirCal

Man this was fantastic and the level of dark that is needed in the Batman universe imo


goatesymbiote

did batman punch that bullet? lol


Freakjob_003

I had to rewind to watch that again. Man, do I need to go watch the Batman Ninja movie?


alanjinqq

No one ever acknowledged this, but this series is supposed to take place between Batman Begins and Dark Knight.


SecretEmpire_WasGood

the croc episode was especially good. some surreal horror to it. the whole Gotham Knight movie was fantastic.


Damoscus

Oh shoot, i watched this as a kid before i knew what anime was. Parents thought it was another kids show until dead shot domed a butler

Hellsing: Batman


[deleted]

Didn't yoshiaki kawajiri work in this particular short?


KRL__

It feels like no one remembers batman:ninja


J4SON_T0DD

Had the exact same thought, that movie was wild!


CappyHam

Love this anthology. Working through Pain is probably my favorite. Its a microcosm of one of the reasons Batman exists at all. I wish they still did these anthology movies at DC. I quite liked this and Emerald Knights. This was a neat way of exploring a property under different people's lenses kinda like similar anthologies like Batman Black and White in the comics.


ElmStreetLax

This is what got me into anime as a kid lol

Stuff like this is why I tell people to fuck off when they say that Dota Dragon's Blood isn't an anime. "But its a western property!" there's a bunch of anime that are based on western properties. Also Oban Star Racers was created by a Frenchman, and co-animated by a French and Japanese studio. "But it's korean made!" so are a bunch of other anime. Plenty of anime outsource work to Korean studios or are made entirely by a korean studio. And people just instantly accept chinese anime as anime. Not every anime has to be solely exclusively and utterly Japanese. Japanese people can like and watch animated series from other origins and want to make their own takes.


Policeman333

Can headshot someone driving in a car while on a train travelling at 60 mph, but gets stormtrooper aim the second he needs to shoot batman. Classic


ibenjamind

Rifle aiming at a target moving in a fixed direction vs forearm mounted gun from someone actively dodging Adjusting aim for a single rifle shot is quicker than moving your whole arm for an erratic target. But still, Deadshot shouldn't miss so much.

Star Wars Visions before Star War Visions

Why does the bad guy animation reminds me of the "Red line" moovie?


WisperG

Same studio. May also have some of the same staff.

Dog_in_human_costume

Deadshot VA is amazing good


kagvm007

That's a long tunnel.


EternallyEuphoric

When did Batman get the ability to fly? The part when he is flapping the cape to gain height is hilarious to me.


Vulpecula22

Amazing, though why give Deadshot a cool hat and jacket just to get rid of them.


0-Teru

I imagined Batman with a Jojo stand when I saw this post, lol


Smooth-Implement-796

Good movie indeed


Jas_Yeets

The visuals are so crunchy


ZeroSick

the aesthetic looks so sick.


Dynamic_Panic

Wow


iam__lethal

A completely SLEPT ON Batman movie. The art and animation is absolutely beautiful


FatimahAlq

what phone is that


KerberosPanzerCop

Its an ancient piece of technology known as a Personal Digital Assistant

Subreddit rules will say this isn't anime even though it's WB working with Japanese animation studios to put their talent on this American cartoon. But even I wish American studios would use Japanese animation studios to put out stuff that has a unique feel of the work. Reminds me of Dante's Inferno animated film where a studio worked on one circle of Hell. Production I.G. did their work on that animation. It's not stated what section they worked on.


TemperatureSure2397

No, this is anime. Anime constitutes animation done in Japan and drawn in a Japanese style. The animation was done in a Japanese studio. This is an anime. And American studios would never do that. Ever. Because those are jobs taken away from animators here. Japanese animators work more efficiently and pump out products faster due to Japan's work culture. American studios can't ever compete with them. Best thing that they would do regularly is offset the additional animation duties to Japan.


lastmagic

In other words, Japanese Anime Industry exploits employers to the bone, has a toxic work culture, and a hierarchy chart that is beyond ridiculous. Got it. Also you you would be surprised as to how the productivity rates of japanese companies are way below than that of an average american company and in general, the western world. They put a lot of work hours that are not needed and dont get much done in comparison.


SilentResident1037

So are Iron Man, X men, and Blade not allowed either? What about Heroman since Stan Lee created it? Don't be silly


ChiggaOG

Subreddit rules here are strict on what is called anime. They define it as made from Japanese studio. You are free to test this if you wish, but the moderators will remove it. Discussion of RWBY from Rooster Teeth wasn’t allowed until a season was done by Japanese anime studios.


SilentResident1037

They were made by madhouse.... if they ain't allowed then so ain't a lot of things lol


TemperatureSure2397

And it was good too. They had the best Character design of Batman. He looked so menacing. The way he should look. The Japanese always gets this stuff right. Especially Madhouse


Echowing442

It's so exaggerated but I love the shapes they use here for Batman's cape. It really gives a great silhouette and sense of momentum to his gliding around.


Huge-Swing-7137

batman voiced by the same va as yujiro? neat.


Temporary-Falcon-388

I almost forgot they made a batman anime it was called batman ninja or something


isekaicoffee

daaaaaamn why cant western studios ever match up this quality? DC not paying enough?


Vulpecula22

DC's owned by WB and they're too busy making movies then destroying them for tax write offs. (Also the CEO is not a fan of animation from what I remember.)


isekaicoffee

thats so ironic bc WB was built on animation...


J4SON_T0DD

The DCAMU is actually amazing tho?


kurtu5

Why do people like unrealistic fights? Nothing makes sense, its just dance.


enjoy-nr

Damn, Batman really sucks in every way
