Anime are made on broke, shoestring budgets. The reason these will continue to look bad is because anyone good at 3D modeling and animation can get a much better job that doesn't pay starvation wages.

That's why IDK why they bother with 3D. Almost all of it looks bad.

It wouldn't get done otherwise. It's marginally better than totally static dragons.

Cause obviously static is the only other option. 🙄

You could draw them then.

I'd love to see the budgets for series like "A Place Further Than The Universe" that start out as anime, versus light novel adaptations like "KonoSuba" and "Madome", or manga adaptations (e.g., "Studio Apartment, Good Lighting, Angel Included"). The anime original series still have to make money, but because there's not a source material to assist in recouping costs, one would intuitively assume there's a bit of a higher standard there, no?
