    Outsource, hhmm saving money, or cutting costs, or just can't keep up with demand?

    The images looks like Disney's Nemo and somehow the pictures, to me, aren't "very crisp, sharp, and clear".

    I guess I'm used to seeing darker colors with contrast colors that could be it.

    Because the pictures kinda "flow into each other" it could be the underwater scene, possibly".

    I other news about cost cutting measures...

    TFPrime was announced today to move away from 3d animation and go towards a stylish new flash based animation style.

    Like I said, it makes sense: it's not like Transformers: Prime is their only production. On top of helping with Clone Wars, they're also the studio animated Tron: Uprising. Plus you've got games, films, other TV shows...they're getting bigger with each passing day. Expanding to other countries is a natural progression. I'm just surprised it took this long.

    Will Japan get season 3? I'm sure it doesn't want to end its run w/ a cliffhanger.

    It may be a mix of reasons, but we know Polygon has to have something already since they showed a teaser at NYCC. If this addition prevents a delay in coming to broadcast without diminishing quality, I'm all for it.

    As long as this news doesn't harken a precipitous drop in animation or program quality... I'm fine with it.

    It's good to know some of my country's local talents having the opportunity to work on a project with worldwide recognition. Hopefully they can keep the quality on par with Polygon or even better.

    I thought Disney said there's no more Tron Uprising to show. - If there is a second season that would be nice - but the big gaps in eps made the show drag a bit for me.

    Is this really true? If so where did you hear this from?

    Back on topic this is cool news. :)  Having another studio work with Polygon Pictures can possibly help it's budget to increase a lot. :)

    That's obviously not true because season 3 is in the same 3D animation.

    Sooner or later, everything makes it to Japan. WHEN is the real question. Could be years.

    I'm sure it will. Chances are they're dubbing it right now and it'll be like April or so for when Season 2 finishes and Season 3 will air in Februrary (I'm sure of it).

    I don't think it'll stop till Beast Hunters ends.

    As long as this doesn't end up like G1 (particularly G1 Season 3), then it'll be okay.
