  It is cel. It’s a specific shading process named after celluloid film that was briefly used for animation a lifetime ago. It’s pretty neat actually.

  I know it to be cells being filled with a single colour.

    I hate to be pedantic with naming/spelling but it’s silly to speak as an authority when you have no idea what you’re talking about…

    It is cel actually. It’s named after transparent paper that was used for animation forever ago, called celluloid.

    I think “cel shading” is just 3d shaders that apply that style, though cel shading colloquially just references the style so I may be wrong on that part.
