>cartoon parodies anime>it doesn't know what anime is
>>154164415It's parodying the platonic idea of anime
Kappa Mikey remains the worst case. The entire premise is Anime vs Comic Books but the artists weren't talented enough to reproduce either medium so it's just weird alienating shit vs weird alienating shit
>cartoon parodies memes>it doesn't know what meme are
>>154164517What makes you think they didn’t understand the meme?
>haha remember anime characters have plus signs for teeth...no?
>anime parodies comics>it knows what comics are
>>154164415It used to be an annoying thing with boomer and Gen X creators, but this is becomig less of a problem now that people who actually grew up watching Anime and ares still watching Anime are entering the animation industry.
>>154164616The only cartoons I can think of that actually have really good high quality parody episodes are Panty and Stocking and Amazing World of Gumball
>>154164652>but this is becomig less of a problem now that people who actually grew up watching Anime and ares still watching Anime are entering the animation industry.And yet still, the best they can manage is "DUDE, AKIRA BIKE SLIDE"
>>154164691Can't even manage that anymore
>>154164415>>154164652It's still kind of annoying honestly, I don't see the need to reference an anime at all. It's like yes good job you watched Utena, I'm supposed to care about this why?
>>154164652
>>154164836You forgot about DBZ and Magical Girl transformations.
>>154164415I think the early anime-parodies highlight the problem with Western studios. They saw anime booming in popularity and instead of either raising their own bar or actively competing, they instead sat in their own mudpile and said "Nope, we're clearly superior than those Japanese cartoons."
>>154164555Because legally distinct pedobear isn't going after children. The sketch has a panty shot though, so they somewhat understood anime.
>>154164863I've seen more Akira bike slides at this point than either a direct DBZ reference or magical girl transformation.
>>154164517Is this a finger-elongating crystal treatement parody?
Perfect Hair Forever understood anime so that only other anime nerds understand that it's about anime
>>154164917Akria bike slide isn't even really a reference to Akria anymore. Its a reference to itself
>>154164969Does Aeon Flux count as respectful synergy towards anime? It's one of the few action cartoons I can think of that are like that.
>>15416488490s and 2000s cartoon were better than anything japan was putting out. it wasnt until sjw movement and steven universe that things went down the shitter
>>154164997Nah, 90s and 00s anime were great.
>>154164415Good, boomers/gen x don't give a shit about being accurate to millennials/zoomers tiresome manchild Japan obsession."love letter" millennial weeb anime parodies are cringe it's always:>le overdone outfit transformation scene #10,000,000+>le Akira bike slide #10,000,000+>referencing the same 3-4 beginner babies first anime over and over
>>154164979Aeon Flux has to have been aware of anime but is anything in it explicitly anime? Seems more influenced by western comics to me.
Ballmastrz: 9009
>>154165121I'm only familiar with three anime.>Sonic X>Aggretsuko>Ashita no Joe SwansonSo I can't really give you a confident answer. But hey, better than it being influenced by capeshit.
>>154164415>try to parody anime>STILL draw characters with those giant bulbous eyes that stick out from the face
>>154165121>Aeon Flux has to have been awareThe creator is a weeb. It has some anime influences and from other sources as well.
Sounds like you don't know what a parody is.
>>154164652Somehow, I think it's much worse because of that because there's a specific reference pool that comes up.
>>154164997You wish, the west could never make something like Lotgh.
>>154164997We used to have proper animators, now we just have D-students who think fundamentals are tyranny running the show.
>>154165474LoGH gets compared to Babylon 5, albeit that's not animated but LoGH was a mega-long OVA not a TV show aimed at kids.
>>154164665>Amazing World of GumballPlease tell me you are kidding
>>154165538If it wasn't clear I was talking about animation, yeah western LA has some nice space operas.
Oh yeah, can't forget about Pantheon. Though, did that have more anime influence plot-wise, or art-wise?
>>154165572They got a japanese studio to animate in their style their anime parody episode, if that doesn't count as high quality I don't know what counts.
>>154164691>>154164721This is a Rick and Morty/Dan Harmon problem.
>>154164415I dont get why they do that. Especially in the 21st century
>>154164443it's trying to tell the local viewership in proximity to the writer's that>hey! im not an anime nerd. keep inviting me to cocaine and hooker parties. I'm not a loser who actually LIKES animation. it's just a job I don't care about. I swear
>>154165607>I don't know what counts.Correct.
In regards to the akira bike slideHow are you supposed to show a sick motor cycle coming to a stop WITHOUT referencing akira? Bikes need to do sick slides all the time. If there's a bike, shit's sick, and it has to slide, then how do you do it originally?
>>154165649Nice example, faggot.
>>154164415Many such cases, usually because 40+ year old people know nothing about it.
>>154165649>no argument
>>154165698That's an anti-american, anti-jewish anime though.
>>154165607>animate in their styletheir style is low quality
>>154165712And your point is what?
>>154165693Do just not know what camera angles are?
>>154164885No chance the censors would have allowed not!Pedobear near a child. This was probably the closest they could get.>>154165698Is this Violence Jack?
>>154165744I think its Angel Cop, but I'm not 100% sure.
>>154165696>>154165699Why are you mad? I'm not stopping you from eating more shit, don't worry.Go on, keep slurping.
>>154165725Why would they reference something that shits on their masters?
>>154165816Some people are capable of nuanced thought, but I guess giving the creators of /co/ material the benefit of doubt is a mistake. Fair point.
Have cartoons ever referenced my favorite anime, Eureka 7?
SOMEDAY I WILL COLLECT ALL THE CHINPOKOMON THEN I WILL FIGHT THE EVIL POWER THAT WILL REVEAL ITSELF ONCE ALL THE CHINPOKOMON ARE COLLECTED OOOOOH?
>>154165607And? Marvel, DiC, Disney and Warner all had the Japanese animate for them. Do they qualify as anime by that logic?
Yin Yang Yo had the best one, I will not take any other arguments
>>154166294BASED YYY POSTER! I'm glad someone appreciates the lovechild between FOP and DP.
>>154166294GUH
>>154165612Rick and Morty have actually referenced AKIRA in two episodes now without ever doing the slide. Props to them for managing to resist the cancer.
>>154164415>cartoon parodies anime>the episode's message is "cartoons we outsource to korea are better than anime"this is the only episode where rick punches or kicks a woman.they hate anime that much.
>>154168034>cartoons we outsource to koreaR&M is much worse, it's outsourced to CANADA! (Bardel animated a bulk of the series.)
>>154164917I mean it's just a cool move. It's not inherently annoying like the Wilhelm scream or whatever
>>154164469Banger opening though
Johnny Test tried to parody Pokemon and managed to create a fusion of Ash Ketchum, Dan Kuso from Bakugan, and a hint of Akira Toriyama design resulting in a character named Blast Ketchup
if it has aznable does it count?
Actually, while we’re on the subject, what’s the most niche reference/parody you’ve seen in a cartoon?Either in terms of the thing referenced being obscure, or if it’s a bigger franchise, the reference is so obscure that only hardcore fans will get it?
>>154164415>cartoon parodies video games>doesn't understand itmuh cheatcodes in an MMO
HAH HAH! OUR ANIME PARODY IS REFERENCING SPEED RACER DESPITE THE FACT THAT NOBODY ON THE STAFF EVEN GREW UP WATCHING IT AND OUR AUDIENCE WON'T GET IT! HAHAH!
>> adult cartoon parodies h-anime>> tentacles and nothing moreWeaksauce
>>154164665I loved the Powerpuff Girl and Dexter's Lab mecha/speed racer episodes
This had to be a reference to Dragon Ball.
>>154168458>SPEED RACER DESPITE THE FACT THAT NOBODY ON THE STAFF EVEN GREW UP WATCHING IT AND OUR AUDIENCE WON'T GET IT! HAHAH!What cartoon are you referring to? The only one I can think of is Dexters Lab whose creators did in fact grow up with it. And I grew up with the reruns and SNES game in the 90s. Its also the best anime movie adaptation bit that wasnt till the next decade.Also fuck kids they dont need to get it. One of the best parody episodes of all time was the Reboot parody of the Prisoner. I didnt get half the references to r rated stuff in reboot either. Or all the mecha references in megas xlr but I loved it too.
>>154165876No but whenever someone brings up how shitty things like Avatar are and how they only had 1 good thing I end up seething about all the horrible things that faggot did to Eureka. The character and the show.
>>154168589>Avatar are*everything after Avatar wasIm seething about E7 right now I cant think straight
>>154168377Similarly Bofuri a mmo that has unique one time events that unlock powers that make you busted. I personally feel I'd go insane playing the game since Ted over here walked into a wall and killed a lich king and now has the power to become an M1 Abrams in my sword and sorcery game.
>>154168377I don't know why trapped in a game/"this world runs on game logic" stuff is always woefully inaccurate in cartoons and anime, there seems to be a decent overlap between fans of video games and animation irl
Yet another thread that's just going to become anime wank. Weebs are retarded fags.
Reference humor is bad no matter what it's referencing
Actually has anyone had a show properly portray playing a ttrpg? I found Big Bang Theory's portrayal to be the worst I've found.
>>154168702Dexter's lab
>>154168697Were you born after 2010?
>>154164616
>>154168731What was this I only remember the transformer episode
Anime rightfully deserves to be mocked. It's fans are a buncha entitled crybabies
>>154168568Futurama
>>154168751Season 2, Broheim
>>154168758Not to mention that they spawn people like a certain TMS cocksucker.
For me? https://youtu.be/-VILgSsesD0?si=0SnjaJVWn42Cv6kY
>>154168758So are /co/fags
>>154164415it isn't t the only tone deaf anime parody Dan Harmon has done, he did it in Community:https://youtu.be/YS-d2j0-yrg?t=57
Are there any kamen rider and ultraman references in cartoons and comics? Other than pic, of course.I'm skipping over Sentai because that PR just doubles for it.
>>154164415Usually it's because the writers are old as shit and the last anime they remember watching was some terribly-adapted slop in the eighties.Somehow they never take the piss out of Macross/Robotech though. Maybe Harmony Gold's just so litigious they don't want to risk it?
>>154164415Don't mind me. Just posting the only good anime parody.

>>154169996>>154168589My bad, didn't meant to quote that stuff. Anyways I've fortunately never watched the Eureka sequel and I don't plan to.
>>154164997This is insane cope. Anime being seen as a superior product to western cartoons was a thing well before the 2010s or SJW movement, it was just denied as weeb wankery until it became self-evident.
>>154168589>EurekaAre you talking about the disney show for babies or the scifi show for dweebs?
>>154170238>Are you talking about the disney show for babiesWhat?
>cartoon parodies anime>it's the same 5 anime that boomers have vaguely heard of
>>154168809Can't wait until he shits up this thread.
>>154170470What would they parody these days? Demon slayer, jjk, csm, and one piece?
>>154170499probably the exact fucking same 5 anime they've always done
>>154170509Pokemon, sailor moon, dbz, speed racer, and gundam? I can vaguely recall a yugioh somewhere.
>>154170498There's already a TTA thread, I'm sure he'll be here any moment.
>>154170499All the good stuff from the late 90s and 00s that milennilas grew up with? Where are my Samurai Champloo, Mononoke, Gurren lagann, Mai Hime, Outlaw Star, Paranoia agent, Nanoha, Cardcaptor Sakura etc. parodies?
>>154170515voltron is more likely than gundam
>>154168758Wrong, but keep being a fag
>>154170515What about AKIRA and Voltron?
>>154164691That’s not even an “anime” reference at this point it’s the single most referenced piece of animation to come out in the last half century.
>>154168568Megas xlr was fun but because it was mostly a parody it didn't have the same impact on me as the mecha anime that I really like.
>>154168731I love this because it is equal parts admiration for old school western animation, as well as utter loathing.
>>154170470This wasn't a general anime parody, though, this was specifically a Speed Racer parody.
>>154170561no shit sherlock
>>15416569840 years old people grew up in the 80's and 90's when anime was all over the place with little censorship.
>>154170580Then why don't they make cartoons that show the same sexy uncensored stuff? Also even in the 00s there were a lot of uncensored anime tits. look at Nanoha which literally showed loli nipples.
>>154164415It's funny how anything "ninja" is practically American culture now after 50 years of bad action movies/comics and video games about them. The word ninja itself isn't even proper Japanese.
>>154170580>when anime was all over the place with little censorship.Not all people born then were anime fans, it was a nice of people that bought vhs tapes and traded fansubs and that's for people born in the 80s. A lot of people born in the 90s experienced an anime that was already dubbed and censored on american television.
>>154170526Anime is garbage
>>154170665Wrong, the west could never make something like Lotgh, not in a thousand years.
>>154170669We could but it would need complete restructure in who runs media
>>154170669>LOTGH animated by Kennedy Cartoons
>>154170669Don't we got Genndy's Clone Wars?
>>154170669>we'll never get boring trash about how war is badGood
>>154170889I don't care about your subjective garbage opinion, we will never ever get a 110+ episodes adult sci-fi political drama. You can't name 1 western cartoon like that, not even 1.
>>154169089
>>154170889>LOGH>being about war is badLmao, you haven't watched it
>>154170195>popular anime Hoki Hoki No Dorri Superstar Excellence! where middle school girls compete to become a grand chess master while moonlighting as demon assassins, is getting its 30th season as well as upgrading its animation to 3D cel shaded graphics to improve visuals and streamline the production>you: OMG best shit ever western cartoons could neveranime was always shit and its about to get even more shit with AI and studios hemorrhaging artists

>>154170981Id watch steven universe over ping pong anyday. At least i won't be wasting my time with some boring trash.
>>154170951>its not about how war is bad because.. it just isnt!Are you serious?
>>154170996I feel like a lot of weebs ITT don't watch cartoons. Then again, I'm a cartoonfag, so I can't think of any anime that's exactly like picrel. (Unless you count Pop Team Epic, maybe???)
>>154170996Then you have garbage taste and low iq, steven universe is tranny boring shit while Ping Pong is entertaining and fun .
>>154171006Look, I don't watch a whole lot of anime, but shouldn't the direct comparison for SU be Utena? IIRC, that was SU's direct inspiration.
>>154171004>>154170996I used to be a huge cartoon fan but a few days ago I started watching Cowboy Bebop and it was better than any mainstream western cartoon I've watched. I might have to switch
>>154171011If I'm being honest, I'm willing to embrace both. Though, my specific tastes would obviously have more Western leanings since I'm not sure if slapstick is as common over in Japan.
>>154171011Ok? Who gives a shit about some gay fucking anime? >>154171006That >tranny shitIs far more palletable than any crap Japan makes.
>>154171009Are you retarded? SU only stole some scene from utena+ uten is from the 90s. I compared it with a 2010s anime just like s and su falls extremely short, like come on every episode is the same boring towny shit or dumb adventure with garbage characterization. Ping pong develops the characters better in 11 episodes than steven universe does in 60
>>154171028KEK, I actually agree with a lot of your points that SU is garbage. Though, I'm going to have to push back on your comparison just a little bit since Rebecca herself addressed it in an AMA. (I'm surprised The Simpsons is one of those inspirations, that's literally the furthest thing away from SU.)
>>154171026Sorry but I am no longer interested in mainstream western cartoons. >>154171020My problem with cartoons is that I can maybe laugh at them and then they go away, they are basically disposable entertainment. Meanwhile anime has series that stay with me. >'m not sure if slapstick is as common over in Japan.It is in children's anime
>>154171028Curious then as to why people still talk about steven universe and not ping pong in this day and age. Steven universe got a decent run and a movie. That's more of an accomplishment than whatever ping pong tried to do.
>>154171041>children's animeAh, then I could see myself finding enjoyment there. Guess what I'm looking for isn't in shonen, and I'm totally fine with it!
>anime respects even the shitty americanized version >ties it into the climax of the show
>>154171041Enjoy your shitty slop anime then dumbass
>>154171026>Is far more palletable than any crap Japan makes.Says you, the man with no taste. No one cares about you. >>154171044popularity=/= quality + most people all over the internet shit on steven universe while praising ping pong. If it's all about popularity then Dragon ball is more popular than any of your gay shit.
>>154164997>>154165076>>154168682>>154168758>>154170665>>154170889>>154170968>>154170996>>154171026anime website
>>154171056...on a cartoon/comics board.
>>154171055Comparing steven universe to dbz now are we? You must be joking. This was never a popularity contest. You made it one because you're mad ping pong was a failure nobody cares about.
>>154171056Cartoons > anime
>>154171060You are the one that brought in popularity so nobody cares about steven universe when compared to dragon ball lmao.
>>154171072With your logic nobody cares about dragonball because pokemon exists lol
>>154171051Idc about your garbage opinion, I enjoyed it more than any cartoon. >>154171047Yeah children as in komodo, a different market than shonen
>>154170968Naruto is better than your favorite cartroon.
>>154171079>komodoThanks! Now I know EXACTLY what to look out for.
>>154171079Any >garbage cartoonStill is leagues better than any anime
>>154171076Lol, Pokemon and Dragon ball are closer, I am sorry that nobody cares about your shitty tranny gem show. Also ping pong was not a failure because it concluded its story with good character arcs rather than going on forever.
>>154171090>rather than going on forever.Guy's got a point, there's that Lars of the Stars show being worked on as we speak, I dread the day it ever surfaces.
>>154171088Man, I tried them all. but they can't compare. Really sorry.
>>154171001Curious, how is Lotgh about "war bad" ? It focuses on 1000 other things.
>>154171090Dbz only had like a 20 year head start on steven universe afterall. Yet still made such an impact you're seething about it a decade later lmao.
>>154171095Then you didn't watch many cartoons at all. Which i can understand as weebs cannot tolerate a good cartoon.
>>154171101Dragon ball super, made in the 10s had more impact than steven universe, Demon slayer made in the 20s had more impact than steven universe. Steven universe's impact is just being considered the downfall of cartoons and one of the worst of them .
>>154171112The worst cartoon is still more enjoyable to watch than any anime that's for sure.
>>154171110I just wish a weeb could recommend me an anime that's like R&S or something. I see weebs talk about the kinds of shows we lack, but what about the kinds of shows THEY lack?
>>154171110I've watched hundreds of them, it's all the same shit. I literally told you I was a huge cartoon fan, but watching Cowboy bebop really opened my eyes . Hell test me, name a good cartoon. Even in the cartoon industry realizes that it's shit that's why the most popular one is hazbin hotel
>>154165725>average school day in america
>>154171119I dont care about telling a weeb what cartoons are good. You people already think that every cartoon is bad because it isn't anime.
>>154171117That's your opinion and nobody cares about it. The majority of people would rather watch dragon ball than steven universe. You are a minority.
>>154171134>more people would rather eat shit than notColor me surprised
>>154171132Excel saga has a lot of zany shit, bobobo is also cartoony dumbness
>>154171132I think they are bad because they are garbage. I literally used to be an only-cartoon fan. I just outgrew them.
>>154171135>>more people would rather eat shit than notbut they are not watching steven universe? You were talking about popularity a few posts ago and yes, sorry your shitty forgotten slop can't be entertaining. if steven universe was more fun, more people would watch it but it's boring.
>>154171137>Excel sagaAre spreadsheets involved?
>>154171137Meant for >>154171118
>>154171137I'm sure you're right and some anime must come close but the fact is that I'm not going to watch em. Having to listen to Japanese in the first place is stupid when you can't understand the language. >>154171139Only thing garbage here is anime
>>154171154Oh right, I believe I've heard of bobobo before. Looks like a good introduction outside of Sonic X. (Which was the ONLY anime I ever touched for the longest time.)
>>154171152You considering steven universe as boring is just a sign it filters weebs. Which is a sign of quality to me. Any cartoon weebs don't like is as far away as possible from being anime.
>>154171159Nah not really, man I tried all of the cartoons and they were all garbage. it's not my fault. Why can't they make something good? I want something like Bebop , can you name anything?
>>154171174It filters every normal person, most non-weebs shit on steven universe as well. Imagine worshiping the slopiest cartoon ever, yeah it could never make numbers like Demon slayer unfortunately.
>>154171175>can you name a cartoon that's an animeYou weebs sure aren't the brightest bunch are ya?
>>154171181>weebs >normal peopleLmao
>>154171182So it's a no? I was right it seems. Man fuck this garbage industry. I don't need a cartoon that's anime, I need a cartoon that's well written. Can you name any?
>>154171174I'm a cartoonfag and even I didn't like it. There was too much timewasting and a lot of its more interesting plotlines got sidelined. (Pink's OTHER Pearl comes to mind.)
>>154171189I wonder what a weeb would even consider well written when all it takes to please them is diarrhea on screen for 26 minutes
>>154171188>cartoonr etatd is illiterateNon weebs hate steven universe as well. Call me when it is as popular as dbs
>>154171199>them is diarrhea on screen for 26 minutesYou've basically described every western cartoon ever made, I want something with good writing and direction. Can you name some? Btw I am a cartoon fan, not a weeb.
>>154171212>Non weebs hate steven universe as well.Seconded, the only thing good about SU was its Uncle Grandpa crossover.
>>154171215I'll recommend legend of the galactic heros. Its not a cartoon but it sure is shit. Perfect for a weeb like yourself.
>>154171219If I wanted shit, I would watch cartoons. Also why do you keep calling me a "weeb". If you can't answer with a good example then I am done here.
>>154171223Kiss my ass ya cunt
>>154171189>I need a cartoon that's well written. >Can you name any?You think Pantheon would be up your alley?
>>154171229Hmm, looks interesting. I'll check it out. Finally someone answers.
Never watching anime i don't like wasting my time on bad mediums it's that simple
>>154171235No problem! I try not to be disingenuous in these types of threads, since I can see redeeming qualities in both /co/ and /a/.
>>154171240Lately I've started to care less where something is animated. Technically, every cartoon you thought was a cartoon was "aeni." (The Korean word for animation. "Guksan Aeni" is the word for "domestic animation", which excludes animation done as service work.)
>>154171240Are you the black anon?
>>154171246Only in Japanese animation will you find the most horrid of concepts for a story. Nothing if value whatsoever from that country in terms of entertaining animation.
>>154171261>meanwhile western cartoons>peeppe poopoo fartLol, I am no longer taking you seriously
>>154171261I wouldn't say so, and this is coming from someone who also has shallow taste. YYY took heavy inspiration from FLCL, alongisde other anime-inspired action cartoons like Avatar and TT.
>>154168568>was the Reboot parody of the PrisonerMegas parodied it tooI mean the prisoner is good but the fuck was going on that it found its way into shit
>>154166294>>154166390damn this show villains were good
>>154171397Agreed! Eradicus was my favorite because he acted all big and tough, but was just as prissy as Carl.
>>154164415>Cartoon parodies old cartoons>it's just a Tom and Jerry chase scene with Tex Avery wild takes.
>>154164665Add Regular Show's tribute to mecha to that list.
>>154164415It's parodying Voltron and Speed Racer, I guess that some of the older gen-x writers worked on this one.
>>154171004a couple of them have migrated over from the ATLA thread after it died, they're just perpetual shitposters and false-flaggers
>>154171704Jeez, what is it with anime-inspired action cartoons and attracting those sorts of people? I could've sworn I was in an Invincible thread where this sort of EvW falseflagging was also going on.
>>154171040Steven Universe is not at all like 'tena even if it used it as an inspiration, also Rebecca could have named more examples since her show is a mish mash of many more cartoons and anime>>154171716>>154171704I am the ping pong guy and I genuinely didn't start anything, I just think su is subpar. The false flagger that started this shitposting is the anti-anime tard here >>154164997. He is like this in every thread that mentions anime in a positive light and his shitposts always attract animefags that respond in kind resulting in every thread getting derailed.
>>154164415I think /co/ just doesn't like anime references, which is fine since they can be a bit tacky. It's not like /co/ acts the same way when there are looney tunes, breaking bad, LoTR or The God father references. If someone was just filling a cartoon to the brim with Iliad or Roman history references, I don't think anyone would care.
>>154171758It's unfortunate that a guy's starting shit just because a few things in /co/ might have decent /a/ references.
HEY HEY LETS GO KICK ASSU
>>154171766From what I've seen people don't like anime references in 2 contexts:1)If it's the same overused one that everyone has done. There are thousands of anime, why do people limit them to just 10?2) If it's done by shitty ugly shows(since people already hate those shows) like RMMost anons like the Megas XLR references. I also don't mind the FLCL stuff in Teen titans and atla for example.
>>154171585It’s one of the few shows they feel comfortable referencing due to it being in the popular boomer zeitgeist for the HS. Just like every power rangers reference is based on the first one, every video game parody still uses Atari sound effects, and they still treat the internet as some dark and mysterious place rather than normie haven.
>>154171788>every video game parody still uses Atari sound effectsTechnically, that's because they're SoundIdeas SFX.
>>154171069Majority of /co/ itself doesn't believe this, not only because the comic posters here hate cartoons and it's fans but the cartoon side of /co/ can only happily discuss a handful of cartoons, and 80% of those are the ones that aired when most when they were kids or teenagers, anything else new gets ignored unless it has cute girls to jack of to.
>>154171716most of them are just baiting for (You)s and don't actually care about cartoons, some of them are probably seething for real but they're the minority
>>154170669Unfortunately the stigma of cartoons = kiddie fare still lingers and North American animation being lowbrow is even worse
>>154170748Anon that is nowhere near close. Also rather short.
no matter how different the anime styles get they almost always keep the same face theory and rules like big forehead and eyes and small noses and skull structure, so there is one thing cartoons do better at least
>>154171873I tried my best with the whole "space opera" thing. Is Final Space better? That got a proper ending in the form of a graphic novel, so that's got to count for something.
>>154171884Nah, there are plenty of different looking ones. Are you one of the people>>154171820 was talking about? The seething at anime kind or the trolling kind?
>>154171894neither, i am indifferent about anime and don't watch cartoon anymore but I noticed how anime faces and designs almost always have the same format and sometimes look a bit generic
>>154171887Don't get me wrong, that doesn't mean it's bad not at all. It just means that the west couldn't sustain something like lotgh getting produced. >Is Final Space betterIt's fine. Very different tone. I still have to read the graphic novel.
>>154171907Then I think it has less to do with the overall quality of western media in general, but rather the structure that produces said western media. The key word you brought up was "sustain", and I'd have to keep that in mind.
>>154164590What IS that parodying? The closest thing I can think of is goofier Akira Toriyama art but that still doesn't separate the individual rows of teeth into + signs.
>>154171903I disagree. Now of course if you are not an anime fan and you only had only seen the mainstream shonen I can totally understand the position but adult anime experiments a lot with art styles, even more than adult cartoons I would say.
>>154171854And it's all because of the Hays Code which directly and indirectly inspired the FCC, ACT, and S&P.Hanna-Barbera tried to get out of the kiddie pool with shows like Wait 'Til Your Father Gets Home and Jokebook but they never cotton on and remained stuck doing Scooby-clones, Yogi-clones and Superfriends.n
>>154171704>>154171716those sorts of threads always play out exactly the same>yeah I totally love cartoons and have nothing good to say about them>let me just spam about how much anime is better>wtf why are westoids so mad
>>154171916Yeah of course that's my position as well. If the industry had evolved differently then the west could have easily supplied it with talented directors and writers but alas.
>>154171894I was talking about the people seething about cartoons
>>154171940But that's not the truth for this thread? People were discussing the subject before that fag had a meltdown about anime. Literally follow the thread.
>>154171933it's not the style that's the problem, it's the format or mold so to speak making them have the same vibes due to the faces for example always having the same structure and proportions for shit like eyes and nosesLike you can lineup characters from any genre and styles and they will look different yes but the faces will always scream "anime" as in they will always have that same vibe unlike cartoons who at least actually have different face formats
>>154170470>vaguelyThe speed racer parody episode of Dexter is pretty detailed in its parody of a specific anime. It's probably harder to tell if you haven't seen Speed Racer.
>>154171975Like I said, not that much of a problem in adult anime compared to adult american cartoons at least
>>154171990even that stuff has the same format though
>>154171975>proportions for shit like eyes and nosesousama ranking doesn't and that's pretty recent
>>154171975I can say as someone who's watched cartoons both obscure and mainstream, that depending on the genre, you can also tell it's a cartoon. Usually the biggest indicators are slapstick comedies and sitcoms. (Sitcoms ESPECIALLY, some of the worst offenders for having near-identical artstyles.)
>>154171995Kemonozume, Franz Kafka and Kaiji don't face similar faces at all.
>>154172028i am saying that most if not all anime have the same general format, i ma not talking about same face syndrome i am saying they use shit like big or angular eyes and have these very known and used elements in the face designlike i looked up both kemonozume and kiji right now and while the first one looks a bit different than usual i can still see that both are anime especially kaiji that big ass triangular eye is nothing but anime
>>154164415Cartoons are just parodying other parodies by other cartoons instead of actual anime Those original parodies were made at a time when most knew anime from Speed Racer and the actual writers were pissed off and hated anime because cheap licensed dubs were killing funding for western shows.
Now I want to have The Eclipse referenced in something wildly inappropriate. Even if its something small Like, Bluey's father falls on the beach during a sunset and just does the pose.
>>154172066>Big angular eyes!Tezuka would like a word.
>>154172159I already said big eyes too, in fact he's the reason anime keeps doing that
>>154172165>All anime has the same face and eye shape except when it's different!Shut up retard
>>154172179but it's not different i already mentioned "big eyes"circular angular they all have big eyes and sometimes big irises i already said skull shape nose size proportions it takes one look and it's recognized as "anime"i am sorry but most anime uses the same format no matter the style
>>154172066>big or angular eyesNot present in my Kemonozume, Franz Kafka and Ping Pong. >kaiji that big ass triangular eyeWhat? Most anime have small noses and most cartoon exaggerations of noses are different. I can name other examples as well: tatami galaxy, princess Kaguya(the 1st movie), Dead Leaves, Pipimi form Poputepipikku etc
>>154171805The comic posters might hate the cartoon posters less if they didn't spam the same pedophille threads everyday and talked about more than 2 shows.
>>154172200>But I said two conflicting things that's the same they're all the sameDipshit
>>154172066>>154171975>implying cartoons don't do the exact same shit lol
>>154172201not getting anything from the first list, as for the second list they all look like "anime" doesn't take any more than once glance to know it was made by Japanese artists, same mold and skull shapes and everything no matter the style changes
>>154172233Cartoons tend to re-use art styles far more, since shows aren't made from a visual source material and it's always cheaper to use a style everyone was already trained on instead of building a new one.Anime studios generally try to match the source material which leads to more unique styles show to show.
>>154172228i am convinced some of you mother fuckers can't or don't read, if you actually read the past shit I typed you will get that I already mentioned eye size and general shape of face elements being repeated, cuz yknow kaiji or whatever his name is doesn't look AT ALL like anime with dem eyes no sirthat was sarcasm in case you're too autistic to get it
>>154172233Meh, Gumball is multimedia and has many styles mixed and matched with different formats and Courage and other old cartoons all look unique
>>154172251>I already mentioned that everything was angular then walked back to just big and round despite those being two different thingsYou're flailing, ESL.It's time to stop posting.You're just fucking stupid and there's no cure.
>>154172236>not getting anything from the first list,What does that mean? >as for the second list they all look like "anime" doesn't take any more than once glance to know it was made by Japanese artists,Idc about how anime they look I care about your stupid argument, Dead leave and Pipimi don't have the same skull types. princess Kaguya and tatami galaxy don't have the eye shape you've described. Pic related is also an anime.
>>154165607France is better now
>>154172263I said big and general facial element including round and angular and what part of what I said was ESL exactly genius? or are you just throwing shit for the sake of seething?
>>154172259Using the same argument, courage has the same generic shape for eyes, you can instantly tell it's a western cartoon dog.
>>154171118Asians just can't do comedy for some reason. They seem so ripe for current contemporary styles, but media evolution is so slow in Asia it seems. I honestly don't remember the last time an anime actually blew me away or felt like a game changer in a long ass time.
>>154172278>I said this stupid shit and was immediately presented with a counterexampleYepNow shut your dumb ass up
>>154172291>Asians just can't do comedy for some reasonNichibros?> I honestly don't remember the last time an anime actually blew me away or felt like a game changer in a long ass time.I recently watched the Starlight movie and it was more interesting than any western mainstream cartoon made in the last decade.
>>154172270Pipimi looks like chibi anime the fuck are you on about? they all look like anime, they don't looks the same but use the same exact facial elements you find in japanese worksLike tatami galaxy has the exact proportions of any slice of life and same hair styles
>>154172288... because of line weight you dense motherfucker >>154172278>What gave me away as ESLYou keep calling proportions and stylization "format"That's just plain the wrong word.
>>154172302>Nichibros?Of course, Nichijou completely slipped my mind! Heard absolutely great things about it, especially the way it blends over-the-top action tropes with slice-of-life comedy.
>>154168345Probably when Regular Show did that mecha anime parody episode where they tried to put in as many old mecha show references as possible.
>>154172301you still haven't pointed out what's esl and still didn't read the general elements part at all and still seething and calling me shit because you can't come up with anything and didn't actually counter with anything proper at all till nowgood job man
>>154172304>Pipimi looks like chibi anime the fuck are you on about?She has a different skull shape though. > use the same exact facial elements you find in japanese worksHow does the image I've posted use the same use the same exact facial elements as let's say Ping Pong. >Like tatami galaxy has the exact proportions of any slice of lifeThe characters have different eyes. I've already provided examples: Ping Pong, Frantz kafka. If you can't say anything about them I'll ignore you.
>>154172315Not Nichijou(which is fun as well, depending on your humour) but Nichibros or Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou
>>154172314format as in the mod so to speakI am just saying the general mold of the face specifically is the same for the most part, I think I was clear anon and I already mentioned multiple times it's not a style thing "different styles yet same mold for the faces"
>>154172315I think anon is referring to The Daily Lives of Highschool Boys, which is infinitely funnier and more entertaining than Nichijou, even if I consider myself a fan of the latter
>>154172324problem is nothing is showing up for either Ping Pong or Frantz
>>154172339Nta but as another anon has pointed out that's true for cartoons as well, just look at >>154172233
>>154170499JJK for sure, it's the hot meme anime of the year. But probably still Naruto and Dragon Ball because that shit's still going.
>>154172349at least modern cartoons
>>154172349I also mentioned that animated sitcoms are also pretty bad when it comes to near-identical artstyles.
>>154171350The giant bubble trap was simply too iconic.
>>154172348Frantz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDjmW-gIsKsPing pong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwoU5rIQDYo
>>154172355Older ones as well, you forgot hannah barberra?
>>154172367i don't know about ping pong but frantz is pretty unique all things considered
>>154164415I think one cannot do parodies right without genuine admiration. Cartoon parodies of anime seem driven by disdain plus a tinge of jealousy about half the time. But at the same time, that's sort of the attitude of American humor in general.
>>154172384Ping pong has characters that never stay on model, the skulls always morphing and changing. Everyone looks deformed and rough etc. There is also Mind Games
>>154172391Japan is really good at parodies, but their humor is not as good on average. I find the inverse true for American media
>>154172413Maybe old american humor cause the new one sucks. 70s stand up comedies routine are still better than what we get today.
>>154172411There are rare examples definitely hence why I always said MOST or ALMOST ALL in my argument but the fact that a huge chunk has that face bothers memind you while I don't watch much anime I like many things about it and see said things as superior to most cartoons like backgrounds and animations but in terms of faces and some designs, I find it a bit repetitive or generic
>>154172411>>154172384Shin chan
>>154172339>Format >MoldNigger the words you want are style and proportions and you're fucking wrong.Stop. Posting. ESL.
>>154172448i am not talking about the styles and mentioned proportions multiple times, stop replying if you're not gonna add anything you look dumb now
>>154172435>>154172442Most of everything look samey including western cartoons. That's what I said about adult anime, looking more unique especially compared to adult western animation(art styles look better in children cartoons). Anyways inferno cop
>>154172457that's a rare unique one toolooks cool
>>154164415Anime is garbage for man children
>>154172457>>154172435Kemonozume
>>154172456>I am not talking about those!You are, that you don't understand that is why everyone is calling you stupid and ESL>I said proportions before in the wrong context and then stopped using the term to say "format"You sure did, ESL This is getting pathetic. You said something stupid anonymously. Move on.
>>154172470Unlike kino like Owl House and TADC
>>154172472>>154172467Even though you talked shit about Kaiji the skulls look unconventional.
>>154172476I already said a hundred times by now that i am comparing the face structure of anime of different styles, hence why i am talking about the style but the mold or face structure or format "so to speak" which I added specifically to make it sound less weird and yet you still got pressed by it for some reason also I said proportions in the context of the faces and their features but I guess you couldn't catch that as usual
>>154172486Nah bro uhhh angular format uhhh it arr rook same
>>154172489>No no format and mold were good smart native speaker choices actually and...
>>154172486it's the eyes man that's what's tipping me and making me see it "just another anime face"use of angles too, some of his face reminds me of case closed
>>154165725>>154165698Edgelord slop. This is why general audience prefer Disney movies, anime is only popular among edgy teens and manchildren.
>>154172486>>154172472>>154172435Tekkonkinkreet and I won't even name more since Tk comes from all studio that mostly does experimental looking stuff and they've released a new gorgeous looking movie in 2025. You have a lot to watch from their catalog so I'll just name the studio: Studio 4c
I still don't get why /co/ has these east vs west ragebait threads when pretty much everyone can agree there are good and bad things from either place. Obviously when you look at things that are mainstream in both cultures, there will be patterns. Likewise, there are unique and obscure things in both eastern and western works.
>>154171940that's how falseflags usually work
>>154172501You know what reminds you of case closed?LINE WEIGHT. EVERYTHING ELSE IS WILDLY DIFFERENT.You lack the absolute basic vocab to talk about how wrong and retarded you are.
>>154172500>native speaker choiceyou are very adamant about this damn, I pulled those words to describe the face patterns being repeated, I have seen many anons and people in general use the term mold before like this genius
>>154172478Those are actually for kids and don't pretend to be anything other than that
>>154172501The faces look nothing like Conan, I think you might be smoking. The skull shapes are different and anyway read >>154172514, I've given you an entire studio.
>>154172520I didn't say they looked the same I said the angles look similar and the eyes but that's with most anime anyway
>>154172522>The face patterns!>The face mold!
>>154172528Nope
>>154172535>I said the anglesNta but define the angles because 99% of western cartoons also have the same eyes so I don't see why that matters.
>>154172539Kek stay mad weeb
>>154172535>I am retarded please rape my face We're done here
>>154172516>I still don't get why /co/ has these east vs west ragebait threadsBecause they're usually the same three people arguing with each other (and their own posts if nobody takes the bait) every time, when one thread goes they just move on to the next
>>154172536Why are you getting so mad over this anyway? The other anons are arguing too but they're not half as annoyed
>>154172554are you running out of shit to say or something? you're just throwing insults at this point
>>154172549how triangular he looks
>>154172555Well, /co/ is a dead board desu.
>>154172566>>154172558>Why are you insulting me for being loudly retardedWelcome to 4chan, fuck off forever
>>154172514>TekkonkinkreetI don't know, the faces have different big noses than usual anime and the eyes are more realistic but for some reason they still have an anime vibe to them, maybe it's the the guy on the right specifically but yes that is a good unique example too
>>154172578Ok so Kaiji= triangular. What does that have to do with Detective Conan where the faces are round?
>>154172597>an anime vibe to them,Man, I don't give a single shit about "vibes" I was providing what you asked for. I gave you an entire studio as an example.
>>154172589I am not loud or retarded, if anything you're the one who uses capslock and bashes your keyboard with every reply and blindly tries to insult me or telling me to leave without actually arguing and giving good examples like the other anonsif anything you're the loud annoying one but hey whatever makes you happy pal
>>154172566When someone says circles and triangles are the same thing there is nothing to do but laugh at them and browbeat them
>>154172605Both shows have slightly thicker outlines than normal, making them identical in "format" and "mold"It's clear as day!
>>154172602???Anime has always been more popular than cartoons on 4chan but 4chan as a whole is dying so the loss of users makes /co/ suffer even more. /a/ is also semi-dead just less so. I was giving you a reason for why every thread on /co/ is dominated by 3-4 people talking... which is because there are no other people.
>>154172622>No U!It's time to stop posting.
>>154172620yes you did and I said the example was great>>154172605Reminded me of shinnichi or what's is face>>154172624i hate ok ko
The "format" of this thread has been infested with black "mold."
>>154172650and now you're posting dbz reactions, sweet
>>154172668>Posting images on an image board? How gauche!Go back.
>>154172672did I say it was bad? you do know what sweet is right?
>>154172655>shinnichiHis face looks like a Rhombus not a triangle, Kaiji has also rectangular and square faces. It's pretty to hard to find another series that looks like it.
>>154172700who's the guy in pic? I was not referring to him just in case
>>154172709The Chairman from Kaiji.
>>154172717I do like the lines at least
>>154172735Kaiji is great, you should watch it
>>154172760what's it about?
>>154172768Life and death gambling. The mc used to be a 20 something good for nothing lazy asshole but due to some inherited debt he is forced to take part in game on a ship to clear his debt. It's all about mind games and gambling. Really fun.
>>154172555nta but what's the point of doing that 24/7, if they like anime and don't like cartoons why not just use /a/ instead?
>>154172794I thought it was samurais and shityou clearly have experience with anime, what are some cool character designs?
>>154172801Why don't you ask that about the guy that keeps seething about anime in every thread, even the crossover one?
>>154172810Mononoke, Cashern Sins, Giant robo , Plastic little and all Urushihara Satoshi anime because he draws some of the hotest girls in fiction, Alien 9, Lain and Haibane Renmei, Kaiba, Redline
>>154172801Beats me, I guess they just want to seethe about cartoons and know doing that on /a/ all they would get is called out for off-topic faggotry and possibly b&
>>154172874I like Mononoke and Giant robot, can't say the same for Haibane Renmei or plastic little some of your suggestions were very cool and others not much in my opinion but thank you
>>154172889desu in this thread, the guys seething about anime started this, he is seething about anime even in this thread >>154161835 . of course people here would counteratack since most anons like both
>>154164443>platonic idea of anime
>>154172906>an't say the same for Haibane Renmei or plastic littleYou mean design? Or the show/ova itself?
>>154172943designs
>>154172946I see I see, those are just extremely appealing to my tastes and sensibilities. I've been following Both ABe and Urushihara for a long time and I really respect them as artists. If you just want to watch something that looks weird and unsettling watch Mononoke
>>154172978i tend to gravitate towards creature and machine designs more
Toph is so beautiful...
>>154172906Sar do not redeem of my opinion
>>154164415>cartoon has hip-hop / rap segment>it's embarrassingly outdated
>>154173011>i tend to gravitate towards creature and machine designs morePlastic little has some cool motorcycles BUT the animated series with the most interesting technology I've seen in animation is probably Iria Zeiram.
>>154172148This is the truth Thread got hijacked by a dumbass
>>154173055i don't like the mc's design but you're saying it has interesting tech? like what
>>154164415>cartoon parodies Willy Wonka>show is abruptly cancelled without warning and everyone involved is kidnapped by a team of Special Forces Oompa Loompas
>>154172906>> hidden somewhere in his archives are Urushihara's nude sketches Joe and Cobra girls>> Baroness with Urushihars style Slav bush
>>154173068It has all those vehicles that uses canvases and bizarre elements combined with a lot of mushroom shapes. It feels like a combination of Honk Kong, Star wars and maybe even of ancient arabic culture.
>>154173155i don't get it>>154173159sound neat
>>154173203Satoshi Urushihara worked on GI Joe uncredited
>>154173215gi joe the cartoon with that robo ninja guy?
>>154172516Because western animation is fucking dying while anime has been exploding in popularity for the past 20+ years. Western animation is even trying to copy anime now in order to survive and it's slightly working. Anime is taking over while the west would rather die than change and give up their gold.
>>154172442this one deserved more dubs
>>154173272But anime is suffering as well. Lost its mystique it had during the 80s and 90s suffering from isekai overglut
>>154173673Isekai only got big in the late 10s and while it is suffering, it's still doing better than western cartoons imo.
>>154173673that doesn't count
>>154166390>>154166294Sexo
>>154173673>>154173718The problem isn't isekai, its Light Novel adaptations. Before Isekai got popular we had battle harems.
>>154170580Anime was fucking niche in the 80s. The only things that were getting ported over were the toy commericals and in the 90s whatever was on SciFi channel (or that one PBS channel, toonami didn't even come until 1997)
>>154175047Idk, the 00s had plenty of variety even if some lns were adapted. Even now you just have to search for good stuff outside of them.
>>154175151Late 90s/early 00s didn't have a lot LN adaptations, or as many anime per season as we do now. They did have more original anime though.
>>154172379>modern cartoons aren't that bad, it's just like the dark age of animation!
>>154173673They've just been doing shotgun approaches and seeing what sticks. Anime has been oversaturated for a long while, so it's becoming harder to find the good stuff. Sometimes they get good stuff to adapt, other times not. The "my gym partner is a monkey"-type anime with literal shit eating even got a 12ep anime, but so did Dungeon Meshi.
>>154175179>Late 90s/early 00s didn't have a lot LN adaptationsThe 00s had a lot of ln/vn adaptations.
>>154175316Tbh I still find easier finding good anime than good cartoons. Recently I've watched Orb and it was really interesting. > Anime has been oversaturated for a long whileSome genres like battle shonen and isekai yes but a medium itself can not be oversaturated.
>>154175316>The "my gym partner is a monkey"-type anime with literal shit eating even got a 12ep animeDarwin Jihen was so retarded but also pretty fun kek, such a stupid premise
>>154172379
>>154175579Meh, the 80s, 90s and 00s had their own generic styles as well. Probably the 90s was the most creative
>>154175579there like other cartoon companies from the 60s that made cartoons and although they had thick lines, the designs were different
>>154172516There's nothing good about anime. All of its fans are morons and the shows they or out are dogshit drivel for the same drooling retards.
>>154174848her name's Smoke, go wild.
>>154172516It's just animefags making them so they can jerk off about anime for the millionth time.
>>154175367Not really? From 2000 to 2009, there were 123 LN adaptations, according to Anilist, if you include sequels, OVAs, Specials and movies, not just TV anime.
>>154175426>Darwin JihenI was actually thinking of an even worse manga lmao https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seton_Academy:_Join_the_Pack!
>>154175678Western Animation or least here in North America have hit beyond the LCD
>>154164469Sean Schemmel voicing Gonard is such a meta joke that it automatically puts Kappa Mikey over 90% of the other anime parodies.
>>154175591Yeah like how He Man looked identical to inspector gadget and the care bears. And how Jimmy Neutron and Beast Boy looked like they were traced from Spongebob.
>>154175828I see. The 00s was the period with the highest amount of original anime series, really great.
>>154169974It should not have taken that long for Megas XLR to be posted.
>>154175829I haven't watched/read that one but Darwin Jihen was just dumb fun.
>>154175929anon... the 80s were filled with he man clones, what you are naming are the exceptions
>>154175579Erm, your timeline's missing Filmation's toy commercial cartoons from the 80s, lil bro.lol the hardcore Calarts defenders would really post this shit unironically and ignore the visual variety of stuff like the 90s Nicktoons, which was made as a reaction to 80s toy craptoons
>>154176045give him the stick
>>154176045real question how does the left ones differe from anime men?
>>154176045I love how twitter could only find like 4 similar looking shows and padded it out by listing every character
>>154176190In the 80s not every anime man was a kenshiro clone if I remember correctly, look at >>154165698
>>154176190The ones on the left were rotoscoped
>>154176219i am talking about the details what makes the faces of gruff men different between both mediums back then
>>154170669I thought the french would have made something on par since they are huge weebs but I guess even they didn't have the opportunity.
>>154176275Idk, look at some examples and compare them yourself
>>154174848
>>154176305i mean i see western examples and no anime
>>154175932We still get original anime, people just don't talk about them.
>>154169089The CGI TMNT show has Michaelangeo do V3's henshin pose once
>>154170968Unfortunately, anime used to and continues to do things cartoons do not.>>154171004No, I absolutely watch cartoons. Dougram is one of my favorite anime and one of my favorite cartoons is Clarence. Of all cartoons, few actually manage to catch quite the feeling of actually being a child.
>>154176332I know I've already said> Even now you just have to search for good stuff outside of them.There still are great anime being mad, especially anime movies.
>>154176311get that fucking blue chud out of there, it should be ME instead.
Just look at this shit
>>154170968>Hoki Hoki No Dorri Superstar Excellence! where middle school girls compete to become a grand chess master while moonlighting as demon assassins,Was this supposed to make it sound bad? It sounds like pure kino.
>>154176382is it fair to pick characters from the same show?
>>154176045>as a reaction to 80s toy craptoonsNigga the cool 90s cable shit wouldn't exist without those "toy craptoons"
What do I have to do to get a Monogatari reference in cartoons?
Is this retard running an AI or something? It's just incoherent noise and pictures without context
>>154176496You mean the guy post samey looking cartoons or who?
>>154176332Probably because it's trash? Just like the rest of anime.
>>154176442Nobody watched this so nobody cares about making a reference to it.
>>154176332This was actually pretty fun and the threads were good>the chainsaw episodeKino.
>>154176520I mean, we're comparing modern shonen shit to this
>>154176653Man all of these look so unappealing.
>>154176653I don't care. I hate anime. it's all just as shit as these cartoons probably are.
>>154169089powerpuff girls season 4 episode 6
>>154176685I'm not whoever you've been talking to but damn, what an incredibly depressing mindset to have. I'm not joking when I say this is incredibly myopic and sounds very unhealthy as a way to think. You have my condolences, though I doubt you want them.
>>154176904Not my fault anime is trash
>>154170553huh?
>>154176935go watch Panty and Stocking and we'll see if you keep that mindset
>>154177015Id rather watch a western cartoon. Something that isn't trying to only appeal to weebs.
Why is there a fag seething every time someone mentions anime on /co/? What the fuck is his problem and why do people keep giving him attention?
>>154177045Panty and Stocking is basically just a western cartoon with different animation you fucking idiot
>>154177069Xe's just butthurt that jewperman got molested last year by two Asian cartoons that didn't even have a tenth of its budget. Pay "him" no mind, Goylywood bots run this site.
>>154177069He got mindbroken by CHADnime, many such cases
oh em gee, will you guys stop talking about japanese anime and instead discuss marceline scissoring bubblegum while my hero finn watches? thanks in advance!
>>154177069My problem is that weebs are a plague upon the board. This is a western cartoon board for animated shows that aren't complete garbage like anime tends to be. Anime fans are the most annoying people on the planet.>>154177087If that was true then it would've been made in the west, but it's not. It's anime. It will do nothing like a western cartoon whatsoever. Japan doesn't understand the west at all for what they want.
>>154177235so is Oggy and the fucking Cockroaches anime by your definition?
>>154177243France isn't japan so it's not anime
>>154177210Lmao he probably is exactly like this>>154177243>>154177087You are wasting your energy. He does this shitposting thread because anime makes him seethe. Just ignore him
>>154177235you are not white
>>154177293Anime will never be cartoons Weebs will never have a good show
>>154177309you are not white
>>154177320Anime is not good
>>154177235>Japan doesn't understand the west at all for what they want.Japan doesn't care about what the west wants.
>>154177235>Japan doesn't understand the west at all for what they want.When why do manga sell better than comics and why do battle shonen dominate cartoons?
you think the anime hate guy would lose his shit if he were to find out about Powerpuff Girls Z?
>>154177379Probably yes
>>154164616Is that fair? I was told by others that P&SG is THE total westaboo series, not just an offhand parody or what have you. >>154168731Japan also has a very unique relationship with the FF because of their batshit dub that's basically their equivalent of Ghost Stories
>>154177369So why should the west give a shit about anime? Let the Japanese make their slop for the Japanese. while we make actually good western cartoons for the west.
>>154177374Because weebs are retarded? It's not rocket science to come to the conclusion that they'll consume anything made by the Japanese no matter how bad it is.
>>154177487Why does no one buy comics then? If they are made for the west? >Japanese no matter how bad it is.>malding because naruto is more popular than his favorite calarts slopgeg
pick on activity:>discuss korra and asami fingering each other in front of mako>elaborate on ty lee humping mai while zuko watches>talk about rogue fucking magneto on gambit's gravelet your imagination run wild
>>154177591Cuckoldry galore. The absolute state of Amerikikes.
>>154164691When has akira bike slide been referenced?
>>154164517I guess that's what inspired DBXV2's DLC.
>>154177567Watching anime is it's own punishment for weebs anyway so it doesn't matter. At least I'm personally won't be subjecting myself to the torture that is Japanese anime.
did anime rape this guy's mom or something?
>>154177803All anime did was offend my sense of decency by having subject matters that are immoral and heinous being portrayed as a good. Characters being really stupid as well as tropes taking place in every show I watched becoming repetitive.
>>154171056My issue is much more with cringy weebs than it is with anime, which for the most part have no problem with.The nu-weebs that came around during the late 2010s and especially the covid era are my main issue.
>>154178339>my sense of decencypajeet, this is 4chan. you use AI to translate your psts. There is nothing decent about your shit eating life.
The problem is that busybodies like Peggy Charren defanged U.S. action cartoons in the late 60s so in the 70s we're stuck with Scooby-clones and Superfriends. While anime back then wasn't completely immune to Charren-types in the same time period they got off easy in comparison
>>154179019Of you had a problem with newfags you would have done something about the death battle general and the digital circus threads
>>154175920Care to explain the joke?
>>154168731I love the 70s FF HB show.
>>154164415I think about this post a lot
>>154179154Why would I need to use ai to translate my posts?
>>154171056American website, won't like it, get out dawg.
>>154165607That's not a special feat for AWoGB. The entire show is built around outsourcing parts of the show to different studios internationally. The only bug boast was that it was a single studio handling those scenes instead of their usual method.
>>154177703Goku Black was inspired on DBAF and some guy's DeviantArt evil Goku recolor.
>>154179473It's an american anime website. They don't contradict each other.
>>154168160I always thought he came off as half Ash, half Gary.
>>154179740Tell me why I have to suddenly suck off anime like the rest of weebdom just because I use this site?
>>154164415GO VENTRONIC!
>>154179830You don't have to do anything. If you see a thread with an anime in the op instead of spending time here seething you could just use one of the other threads.
>>154171011There is so much better than bebop too. For all the praise it gets it is just "good". It isn't even great.If you want a good dub, watch Hellsing. Only ten episodes (around 45 mins to an hour each)After that I recommend switching to subs
>>154171132>You people already think that every cartoon is bad because it isn't animeThe industry is pretty awful right now and barely any new shows even get made, so yeah.It used to not be like that for cartoons but now it is. Compare actually new shows that came out the last 5 years compared to weeb stuff and the prosecution rests.I think the last "new" show I thought was amazing was Over the Garden Wall. Bluey was good or even great but not amazing and obviously was very kid focused, but you know what? Japs got their own Bluey (kid focused gag show with surprisingly deeper things below the surface) basically in Puniru, especially S2. Haven't seen primal yet and I might but it's hard to not be depressed about the awful state of western animation and to even give shit a chance when it is the same usual suspects and nepotistic cabal running shit
>>154171192This is it for me. Even if you ignore all the incredibly hamfisted fag shit the pacing is awful and the town episodes were a waste of time. I dropped it at some point back when I was still coping about cartoons and thinking they weren't in a shitty state and just speed watched it much later, and I didn't miss much. Gravity Falls S2 second half being awful and having many of the same problems is the straw that broke the camels back and what made me finally realize how awful cartoons have gotten.
>>154171004Sketch comedy stuff? There is a ton of that. Pretty sure Crayon shin chan (pic related) is that and has been running since the beginning of time, doesn't interest me so I don't watch it.
>>154179938Hellsing Ultimate, I mean, not just Hellsing
>>154179931Implying weebs won't just show up to an on topic thread like they do all the time just to say how bad it is compared to their seasonal isekai garbage
>>154180085Not exactly what I had in mind, MADtv/MAD CN were more sketch comedies, but I'd totally be into Crayon shin chan.
>>154180189Take your meds, cause nothing like that happens.
>>154180221>>154179931>>154179740>thinking about medsngmi, also i don't support big pharma.
>>154180234I know that big pharma is a scam but some anons have it rather rough.
>>154180004I feel it's also a double edged sword, if I were to be completely honest. As bad as the cartoon industry has gotten (and let's be frank here, it was declining since TV entered the picture, the 2010s was when it became obvious). The fact that anime is shitting out almost 200 shows a year is not any better when the general quality of those titles tend to rival the worst that modern cartoons have to offer in both writing and animation. The baseline might be better on average, but when shit like the R&M anime, Lazarus or Gibiate come along, that's when you realize shit's fucked regardless of region.
