Personally... I can't watch a show like FLCL or Last Exile, for example, and say that CG doesn't have a place in anime. As a lot of people have said already... it all depends on how smoothly it blends with the show.
When digital creations first started being used for F/X in live action movies, or *cringe* creatures, it was brutal... once the technology advanced far enough that the CG creations could fit in (Jurassic Park) without it looking stupid and out of place.. I knew there was a place for CG right next to animatronics.
I feel the same way about CG use in combination with cel animation...
