Mostly because they just go over the top with it, using fully moving robots and crap that just don't intergrate with the 2D animation. I think that CGI works best with 2D when you're using stationary objects. For example, CG vehicles are fine, the Mugann from Gurren-Lagann were good, the buildings from Soul Eater look nice. Basically, it's not as drastic to use simple CG items, compared to fully moving Mecha-dragons and humanoid robots. Gonzo are pretty crappy when it comes to implementation of CG.

It blends with the art style quite well. I'm sure if they wanted better CG they could do it, but they didn't need anything particularly detailed for this anime's simple art.

I mean, with the sun I can just about see it, but the moon? Are you sure? In any case, both of them look fine to me. That castle I hated from the get go, though. The moon is CG?
