** ''DYNÉ…ZENON'' also unintentially plys this straight with its regularly alternating use between 2D and 3D models of the title mech and Gridknight. With the 2D versions being far more dynamic and fluidly animated while the 3D is done the same way as the kaiju.

* ''Anime/SSSSGridman'' and its sequel ''Anime/SSSSDynazenon'' use this trope for deliberate effect with certain kaiju, all of which are CGI but designed to look as if they could be made into suits and worn by actors in a tokusatsu program. Each show has one kaiju that's made specifically to evoke a poorly-made costume, representing an in-universe CreatorBreakdown.

* The live-action segments of the ''Cinnamoroll: Shitsuke Ni Training'' {{Edutainment}} videos try to digitally remove the strings of the Cinnamoroll puppet that is the friend of the human characters Yuuko and Rei, but this fails most of the time, at least for shots that aren't far away. Usually, the strings will disappear for a few seconds only to reappear when the puppet moves in a slightly different direction. There's also a visible black line around the puppet in most shots. In comparison, ''Hello Kitty's Magical AIUEO'', which features the same children, barely has these problems.

The CGI used in the second season fits very well, the horses CGI was very well done and blends good with the backgrounds and the characters, and the CGI for the colossal titan kind of stands out for a second but then it is immidiately followed with amazing animation featuring the same CGI, the sentence in this article dissmissed all that to prove a point that doesn't exist.


** The second season tops this by having the Colossal Titan and the horses be CGI. Said CGI is no better than a 90s cartoon.

* ''Anime/TransformersEnergon'':
** The main failing of the CGI used for the Transformers themselves is that it renders them utterly incapable of emoting beyond combinations of "eyes closed/open/slightly more open" and "mouth open/closed". Never do they feel like the have weight, and even such simple movements as turning around are accomplished by the robots' stiff CGI models spinning around on their vertical axis, without moving their limbs. On several occasions, in order for characters to more properly emote or move (such as Inferno screaming in agony during the torture scene in "Imprisoned Inferno", the show ''switches back to traditional animation''.
** Also, their outlines are never rescaled, making them look more like massive blobs of... something.
** There was one weird instance when one of Scorponok's eyes was actually rendered ''over'' his visor, while the other was behind it. And his visor isn't meant to be see-through.
** Another famous instance involved Ironhide. As Kicker walks by, we at first only see the lower half of his body. But as the camera slowly pans up, Ironhide's supposedly out-of-frame parts continue to be missing, and he's revealed to be a cropped 2D image made up of legs and a lower torso.
** Quite a number of Transformers in this series, as well as sort-of/supposed-to-be sequel ''Anime/TransformersCybertron'', include details from the toys that make no sense for the show characters - including levers and buttons for activating play features.
* ''Anime/YuGiOh5Ds''' suffers from this when it displays the CGI models of the D-Wheels/Duel Runners, in which the character riding the D-Wheel/Duel Runner is rendered as well, resulting in a plastic model-esque look. Particularly annoying, as when this is in 2D it looks ''much'' better.
** Oddly, though, the monsters look pretty cool (Stardust Dragon's Shooting Sonic attack animation in Ep 41 looks pretty damn good for CGI).
* During the fight Ripple and Top Speed vs Calamity Mary in episode 9 of ''Anime/MahouShoujoIkuseiKeikaku'', we have a jarring scene of Calamity Mary firing a machine gun where CM her self is just a still image, and her hand and her machine gun are on another layer, being vibrated back and fourth.
