Aye, I imagine it is a server problem, which is why I don't think the change should be immediate. But I think it's also important to point out the fact that the animation in itself is rather boring. If I'm about to teleport/return to distant lands, I would like it to be just a liiittle bit flashier and nicer looking. Kind of how FFXI's Tele-X and Warps had their own looks to them. Not saying to copy directly from them, but I'm sure the devs can come up with something better looking.

I have to throw out there that having the initial "Fwwwomp" before confirmation is beneficial because if multiple players in a party open their teleport windows at the same time, they have warning to pause what they're up do and decide whose doing the port before someone wastes their anima.
You do make a good point. However, at least in my experience, if they party is planning on teleporting then they usually go to the point of asking who is going to and then someone volunteers.
