digital animation technique

Live2D is an animation technique (not to be mistaken with software used to create Live2D animation such as Live2D Cubism) used to animate static images—usually anime-style characters—that involves separating an image into parts and animating each part accordingly, without the need of frame-by-frame animation or a 3D model. This enables characters to move using 2.5D movement while maintaining the original illustration.
