【Drama】Latest FGO CM Suspected of Using AI-Generated Art, Drastic Style Shift Sparks Online Debate

Recently, a new animated commercial for 'Fate/Grand Order' on the Japanese server has sparked a firestorm in the community. The core issue is the appearance of visuals suspected of being AI-generated, which stand out sharply from the rest of the CM, leading to widespread speculation among the player base.

Attentive players pointed out inconsistencies between consecutive frames, such as a collar color shifting from black to blue and the sudden appearance of a golden trim on an earring. These 'flickering' artifacts, characteristic of AI generation, led many to believe that even if not purely AI-made, the tech was at least partially involved in the production.

Opinions in the community are divided. Some suggest it could be an 'artistic choice' linked to the character's setting, or perhaps a manual drawing touched up by AI. However, many worry that in an industry where artists strongly oppose AI, FGO adopting such technology could lead to a massive trust crisis among its dedicated fan base.

The comment section is abuzz, with users noting that reaction on the 'Blue Bird' (Twitter) has been especially heated from overseas players. While it remains unclear whether this was an intentional creative decision or a production oversight, the controversy has clearly plunged the community into a fierce debate regarding AI copyright and professional ethics.
