Nondescript gender swapping anime Kämpfer has finally attracted some attention, though perhaps not for reasons which will delight its creators – the above still shows a truly fascinating grasp of physics on the part of the animators in several key respects…
The studio responsible, Nomad, previously animated Rozen Maiden, causing certain scenes to swim sharply into focus:

at least the mirror image is not a copy paste
So many anime with so many fail nowadays... :/
*much fail*
Some Rozen Maidens have six fucking fingers, so what?
Looking more carefully at the picture of Natsuru I'd say that instead of only copying pasting they also inverted the image so in my opinion that's why she has bigger boobs and a flatter face but the only way to notice this is by comparing the sleeves of the real Natsuru and the mirrored one. If you guys do then you'll get what I mean.
QUALITY!!!
The towel rack is definitely a "Censor", it is understandable that it is missing from the mirror. Besides the blatant censoring of panties, they need to do more and add in these stealth censors of panties
The mirror tho... that is a QC issue
Towel rack is a vampire towel rack.
This rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack this rack.
The towel is also a vampire.
All I care about is waiting for the uncensored versions to be released on DVD. Stupid "keep out" banners.
Did you miss the QUALITY grape in episode 3?

ack! again! damn... i forgot what to write after seeing that giant mistake
mirrors don't work that way...
lol
Oh no.. and I was looking forward to this series if it will actually have "something" in it...
It's all ruined..
AHH! a six fingered demon-looking-still-kinda-sexy girl with naruto's demon-fox-mode eyes!
AHH! the kampfer girl has a clone behind a glass instead of being mirrored!
oh wait!
and its not even a clone! its someone cosplaying her! couse the mirror one is obviously thinner...
just like a messed up photoshop
Why do we all assume mirror in their world works like ours? A crazy world where guy turn into girl, stuffed animals that walk and talk. This is probably how their mirror works.
My guess is that the towel rack is actually a vampire, thus it does not appear in a mirror.
A six-fingered woman killed my father. Now, at long last, his soul can rest in peace.
it s still a good show
My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die!
Meh, this is normal if it's made by Xebec..
Every studios(pros or not) have their flaws once in a while or..... their quality checkers are not scientifically qualified(aarggh!!! those are defying the very laws of physics, the essence of the universe, the "u can bend a spoon but can u bend the plate" classic dinner pun)
Da original artwork is much better(in terms of resolution... duhh)
On the other finger, the Natsuru ePICT fail(wat u may call it) is well fail because the artist/animators/coloringbook experts?? have forgotten to erase the object(typewriter?) that's hindering the view to Natsuru's(of course female ver.) lower part
As the saying goes...A tilapia caught is a tilapia eaten
Well I thought the past article(Aya Hirano now ero-....) picture was Natsuru. hehehe
Everything except that towel rack seems to be mirrored correctly. Although the scale is slightly off. This suggests it may have been added for TV censorship and may vanish in the DVD release.
So when you look directly into a mirror it shows your back? What kind of fucked up carnival house-of-mirrors attraction does your bathroom look like?
But she isn't looking at the mirror.
...And yet it shows her front. It was an example of a similar failing of physics, please try to keep up.
You are joking right? They just copypasta'd the girl directly onto the mirror. That's not how mirrors work.
i'd understand if it was due to lack of time for a rush job or even plain laziness using the old ALT-CTRL-C, ALT-CTRL-V. but unfortunately it isn't... *sigh*
oh sorry... no ALT
If you go actually watch the scene, you'll see his/her reflection is correctly mirrored a lot of the time.
They definitely didnt copy paste the girl. The size/angle of the boobs, angle of the sleeves, shape of her hair and angle of her shoulders.
It would have been a bit more 'sellable' if the character actually remained the same in the so called reflection.
You really are a Nitwit aren't you?
You know, it's not very offensive when you recite someone's user name as an insult. Please try harder.
Ahemz

Now that reminds me of Kamichama Karin, or something. I thought it was that anime, with eyes going all like
Fuck yea.
Six fingers...I could use that. (Well....not really, no, but it'd be awesome.) Suigintou never stops to amaze me.
On Kampfer related news (SPOILER ALERT):
It's a trap.
I wonder if fapping with six fingers feels better.
I thought he meant an extra finger to shove up his bum since he has gotten so used to only 5.
i'd still hit it, the blue haired one that is
Oh wow, i didn't see the 6th finger at first. What the hell O_O
Are the animators trying to suggest that Suigintou is an artificially created daughter of Graz'zt [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graz'zt#Description]? o_O
Why is that room so empty? Gender Swap Isolation Anime?
I though I saw this same thing in Sankaku before in a Fail Gallery somewhere. Nice to be reminded though.
I didn't notice until I saw numbers.
Fail
how many of us didnt notice until the second picture?
...
hehe I had to check twice ^^U
I did just because ive seen this picture posted in a post before..
^ This.
Old pic is old.
loli-kun where did you get that pic
epic fail pic +1
so first pic is just mirror physics?
@anon 1
http://chan.sankakucomplex.com/post/show/474636/
i didn't cuz i don't usually bother counting fingers
wat's wrong with the blonde?
As long as it stays epic fail, fine to me.
I assume you mean the hand picture.
In the mirror one the towel rack is missing in the mirror. Not to mention the fact that she's not mirrored. As then you'd see half her back instead of her front. As you can't show your back to the mirror and have it show your chest.
It's not a mirror, it's a huge TV screen showing the live feed from the hidden camera.
Not if the camera and the projector alternated frames, so that whenever the camera took a frame, the screen was blank....
Oh never mind.
if that was the case then you would have tunnel vision cause the hidden camera would also see the tv
It's hidden in the towel rack? It's that voyeuristic student council president I tell you. It's gotta be!
It's not a mirror! They must've had a webcam and a giant flatscreen monitor. And there's a delay in the playback so she's not slouched over in the video monitor. Yeah, that's the ticket! :D
That was probably a last minute censure.
I have a feeling that the towel rack will disappear altogether in the DVD release.
I think you've found the problem there: they had to go for double the tits.
lol i noticed that when i was watching the anime. somehow i knew it was going to end up in SanCom
It's not a bug, it's a feature
There's a worse picture later. The mirror isn't reflecting at a 180 degrees angle, but at a 90 degrees one!
I have to be honest. I expected some really smart sexual comedy in Kampfer when I knew what it was about. In the end, I only got a bad plot (with a terrible adaptation - no suspense, no character development, no nothing) with fanservice. Alright, it's a fanservice anime then. Couldn't at least they do the damn drawing right!?
I had struggled to find Kampfer enjoyable after a friend's insistence that the plot might bring up something good. But with the mirror scene, I really gave up on it. Kampfer has just earned my 2009's worst anime title award.
lol yeah, in the same scene they show a normal length shirt in the mirror, but in real life it like goes down to her knees. I was like.. wtf. I'm surprised that picture didnt make this post instead of the towel rack one.
The sexual jokes and whatever had me laughing quite a bit in the first few episodes with Natseru and his partner, but they sort of disappeared
What am I looking at for the second one?
It's just to show shinku's reaction. There's nothing wrong with the second and fourth pic.
The light reflection on the eye should change when you move in a different angle. :P
Who cares about shit like this? get a life! detail freaks.
Wait, wait, are you guys sure about this? As far as I can tell, the second and fourth picture are there just to complete the meme purposes this has. Int he second picture, the girl is looking intensely at the first picture, then notices what is wrong. The fourth picture then "occurs".
Well, anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, but that's what I got from it.
Your anger in this case speaks volumes about your own inanity.
i have to agree with you nin the close up of the eyes seems to just be a reaction pic rather than a contrasting one
I agree with Nin, I mean I thought it was just showing Shinku's reaction to it....
I'l give you a hint, count the number of fingers on your hand then do the same for the image.
More like... What are we looking for in the first one?
Mirror perspective fail is actually pretty obvious.
It would have been funny if they had "accidentally" shown the "camera team" in the mirror.
that's something you'd find in Pani Poni Dash
id lol cuz that would be fuckin funny
The reflection in the mirror is all wrong. But animating reflections are always troublesome.
Sidenote, this is why we need Quality Control.
1. Get a generic figma and a small mirror.
2. Take a picture of it.
3. Base yourself on it for the animation.
There, was that so hard? It took me 5 seconds to notice the "mistake". What's wrong with these people? They literally had HOURS to notice the mistake.
Better no reflection then a bad reflection.
Plus it isn't reflecting that towel rack in front of her.
The background has a mirror, so it should be reflecting her back, not her front.
Mirrors don't work that way.
Haha, yeah.. That was bugging me when I was watching the anime too. D:
lol when I saw this scene in the anime something was bugging me but I couldn't figure out what until now lol :D
It's a trap!
I'd love to see a studio attempt to animate what it looks like when two mirrors are facing each other on opposite sides. That'd be tough.
That first image strongly reminded me of René Magritte's "La reproduction interdite". Look it up, excrete bricks.
I actually had an issue with the main character's voice as a guy... I dunno, it just doesn't seem to fit the character when he's a guy. While I doubt the DVDs will get a better voice for him, I do hope that screw ups like in that screenshot get corrected...
that's not a mirror, it's a parallel universe :<
a universe where she has bigger tits and a far more flatter face
It's a MIRRORN DORRAR!
Am I the only one who noticed her tits look different in the mirror? That was the first thing I noticed, then all the other stuff everyone pointed out already.
Didn't you know? Tits appear 1 size smaller through mirrors.
So if you placed to mirrors facing each other and put someone in the middle, eventually you'll get negative-sized tits?
No, but they'd shrink to zero.
Because they wanted to show that they fail on purpose.
