I wanted to make a topic dedicated to the cel animation, which was used in no other season except the first. For this reason, it just seems all the more special. And there's something disappointing to me about it not carrying on for at least another season after that. It's now grown on me after looking at some very early images. I also have a couple of questions:
1. Which character looked the nicest with this animation?
2. Do you wish the cel animation had lasted into Season 2 as well?
My answers:
1. SpongeBob most of all, because it really helped bring out his expressions and he was very unique-looking, especially compared to the season after that. Sandy and Mr. Krabs had a pleasant and very different look to them as well. Of course, I can't forget about any of the other main characters - the cels were very effective on them too. Season 1 definitely has a whole different atmosphere (I guess the backgrounds and colors used have something to do with it as well.)
2. Yes, if they were able to carry it on, definitely! That means if there was a reason they couldn't, I wouldn't particularly mind. But every other season is done using an ink and paint method (digitally), and it's both fun and interesting to imagine what some of the Season 2 classics would look like this way.
It has a whole level of uniqueness to it, this animation. I was a bit late experiencing it, though!
