Deranged? More like "Mildly Incongrous": Deranged Animation

OK, how to describe this, the picture for Deranged Animation simply isn't deranged enough. Yes, it does look like an orange Sonic The Hedgehog talking to a blonde Garterbelt (which I guess is pretty strange), but the overall look just doesn't seem "Something no sane person would draw".

I think any number of screencaps from Shaft's work [1]◊ would work much better.

This seems extremely subjective.

I've been thinking about this one for a while, thanks for bringing it up. I support rodneyAnonymous's suggestion, as it shows the deranged animation rather than the deranged character designs.

EDIT: Actually, I just made an inaccurate assumption of the trope based on the name. Either image is fine.

That isnt the best at showing Deranged really Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei does a better job.

A collage of 3 of the SZS pics would work great...even just one would be good. I'm not crazy about rodney's suggestion, but it's an aesthetic dislike...it works well enough.

Hmm 3 pics lets see

I might have gone with some others, but that transition of subtitles is great...it's got my vote.

Translation: yup. Deranged Animation alright.

What screens would you have gone with? I have the thing open right now so I can grab ones without subs and different ones (it is such an acid trip episode it is not even funny... I mean seriously What Do You Mean It Was Not Made On Drugs much.)

That's pretty messed up.

The subtitle sequence makes sense but the second frame looks merely unusual.

She is talking from inside his eye.

Video of the sequence any other screens I can grab.

Oh come on you've been doing this long enough to know explaining the context rarely does any good :)

No, I know that, I linked the video to see if there were any other places to grab the shot based on your opinion.

From post #4, my favorites are 1, 2, and 4. But the new version of 3 on post #6 is OK too.

The frame in #14 looks better than the middle in the sequence, but it breaks the subtitles flow. Let's see...

That as the middle panel in that sequence would work better.

So, sequence to assemble:

Bingo. The rest can go on Image Links.

^+2 from Me Too!. SZS really benefitted from SHAF Ts animation

Although, admittedly, I also think Rodney's single image is quite sufficient.

Hmm do we need a crowner?

Crowner's up.

Should we go ahead and call this one, or give it another coupla days?

It's got a very solid lead.
