...through the eyes of legendary director Kenji Kamiyama....
...New Line Cinema’s original anime feature “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim.They introduced the Japanese director at the beginning and called it anime so people are fooled into thinking it's something it's not. Extremely choppy CGI with that that Western "anime imitation" look (like Castlevania and others) and the voices
completely lack emotion. What the hell is with English VAs past 2002 or so? Rune Factory 4 and Neptunia are like the only English voice casts I like since then. Well, and Fromsoft stuff.
It's a paired work between Warner Brothers and these guys that seem to specialize in Western IPs:
