Why that long face?

No, seriously, what where the animators thinking?

They were likely thinking, "This is gonna be on screen for about 1/12th of a second." That's what I was thinking when I was an animator anyway.

It's the overall impression of stylized motion that counts, not each individual drawing. Out of context many single frames of an animated fast motion will look terrible.

(That said, if this is a held cel: I dunno what they were thinking of.. perhaps the budget for this episode? >.<;)

(Sorry for the novel-size post.)

To put it simple. The animators (and the writers) just didn't cared.

It's not that simple. Sometimes an "ugly" drawing will convey the right sense of motion when it's viewed as part of the animation, not as a single drawing.

but this is g1

this is the most gutter crawling bottom tier amateur animation work by a team of animators who could have all qualified as mentally retarded.

so what do you think, a skillful tween that nobody notices in passing, or just completely retarded animation that hangs around for 2 seconds straight, due to bad pacing?

This isn't an episode; it's the show opening. For some reason it gave the characters much "wilder" expressions than the actual episodes ever did.
