The actors in anime - or any other animation format - are voice actors. They are not able to use body language or facial expressions to convey emotion or whatever.

Hand-drawn or computer generated, they are still cartoons with voiceover dialogue - regardless of how sophisticated it might be.

And hand-drawn will be far more cartoonish than sophisticated CGI.

Once we get human-looking anime - and I mean barely distinguishable from actual humans - then we can talk about anime Galactica.
