You're right of course, animation is the movement of the characters and stuff, which is actually fine for the most part - the closest to describing what it is that bothers me about the look of the show is probably "rendering" - the whole thing looks like a cheap video game. Plus the design of some of the characters is pretty uninspired.

Yeah. I feel like a lot of the look of things is a bit blurry or smeared or otherwise "low-rez"... a lot of stuff seems to kind of blend together in certain shots.

However, I'm chalking a lot of that up to budget concerns and I assume that, as it was with The Clone Wars, the look of the show will improve over time.
