I'm all for custom animations for special actions, actually. I'd be all for dashing having a special animation different than normal movement or a a cool "prep" animation about the character getting ready to sprint.
Conversely, I'm also all for tuning down unnecessarily over the top visual effects that are just visual noise, and for keeping these animation as "based on real human anatomy" as possible with no cartoony over the top shit on top.
I also agree that these type of animations need to be snappy, short and quick to execute.
