Making a Smooth Motion is Easy with MMD
MikuMikuDance is capable of making very smooth motions. MMD creates the in-between frames between the various Key Frames that you Register. If you micro-manage the movements to get precisely what you see in your mind’s eye, you are restraining the capabilities of the Program.

COPY to store that data. Set the Frame Counter for 250. PASTE to lock-in the same data that was in frame zero. REGISTER. Now set the Frame Counter to 150. Go to File / Load Pose / StandDejectedTiedRD.vpd . Notice that your character snaps into the new position. REGISTER. … … Now push PLAY and watch as your model smoothly assumes the “Dejected” position and then re-assumes her “home” position.

That’s it! MMD will create a smooth motion as long as you don’t ask for bumps along the way. Please ask me if you have any questions. I learn, myself, as I do research to find the answers to your questions.
