LibreELEC supports multiple platforms, the main difference between most of them is the bootloader. So there is not a single answer to this question.

I have it done like this (with libreelec logo of course)
plymouth lite animated splash

The OP wants an animated splash which is supported for RPi2. Current milhouse builds use the LE "unboxing" animation instead of a static image. I forget what's required; but you are looking for "animated splash" it is not really anything to do with the bootloader.

In the first post it sound like two different tasks:

Update the boot loader for an unknown reason
Show an animation

The boot loader has nothing to do with showing an animation and even if, why should it get updated for doing this?
