In the world of Japanese animation, where every anime had to adhere to a specific animation process and visual style, No Game No Life stands out as an exception for ignoring the norms. Everyone knows the series for being a visual masterpiece, and we have its director, Atsuko Ishizuka, to thank for that. In a recent interview with Anime Mind Probe, the visionary director revealed that she had to break several Japanimation rules in order to bring her vision to life.

By breaking several rules, giving her teammates headaches, and after facing a lot of resistance, she finally managed to get her team to craft a visually distinctive anime that would forever redefine the expectations for an Isekai anime.

Sadly, the second season saw a decline in animation quality and confirmed that changing the studio was not a good idea. Now that there is a huge buzz regarding the third season, concerns over the adaptation have resurfaced.
