>Government to boost support for anime and film production to accelerate overseas expansion-> It was announced on the 17th that the government has decided to expand production support and other measures to accelerate the overseas expansion of domestic content, such as anime and movies.>has set a public-private goal of tripling overseas sales of domestic content to 20 trillion yen by 2033. The government is also considering raising the cap on the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's subsidy program, which currently provides up to 200 million yen for large-scale video productions with production costs of 300 million yen or more. The government is soon holding a relevant ministerial meeting to finalize a policy and aim to include it in this year's supplementary budget. Public-private partnerships in content production are progressing overseas, with South Korea allocating approximately 76.2 billion yen in its government budget for 2023 to support overseas expansion and other efforts. In the United States, California, home to Hollywood, the center of the film industry, is also providing significant subsidies and tax incentives. Meanwhile, Japan's most recent related budget was approximately 25.2 billion yen. It is said that domestic production companies are not receiving sufficient support, and as a result, they are hesitant to expand overseas. https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/54b91cd4adb138167d5a4d7dbdc8c85aa2c67813https://news.yahoo.co.jp/pickup/6552809
>>282385217>Hollywood, the center of the film industry, is also providing significant subsidies and tax incentivesIt's owari
>>282385258I believe the Chinese have major stakes in various hollywood studios, which promotes a soft censorship to please China.
Not a good thing
>>282385258desu i think most of 80-years-old hollywood producers just trowth the money and didn't think in anything else
>>282385301"In this globalized push for expansion of anime, we will also guarantee that the market is safer for an overseas audience, which comes with some changes in how content is reviewed."Heh. It's over.
>>282385217There is nothing good that will come out of this
Based
>>282385358OMG NANOBEST8 LIKED IT??? NO WAY WOW
>>282385217Japan's gotta strengthen that soft power, babyyyy
>>282385217If Japan had the US system Aniplex would just poach literally all the talent in Japan by offering them triple or quadruple their current salary to make yearly Demon Slayer tier tentpoles for 70-80 million dollars. I don't know how anyone holds onto low paid talent in Japan when demand has surged so much.
>>282385217They said the same thing after the first demon slayer movie became a success and did nothing.
>>282385403i remember some article saying Japan it's like top 4 soft power countries, first USA and second china, but the third was germany.The fuck does germany produce? the bundesliga?
>>282385431guilt
>>282385415>I don't know how anyone holds onto low paid talent in Japan when demand has surged so much.Most don't want to leace anyway since the live overseas it's not that much better.
>>282385217Oh perfect, more cookie cutter content and censorship. The future is bright.
>>282385450I don't even mean foreign poaching, I'm talking intra-Japanese poaching
>>282385217They said the same thing when Mugen Train blew up, nothing will happen.
>>282385485i mean, the gov invest tho, but most didn't fallow theses news
>>282385431They basically dictate the cultural direction of most of Europe.
>>282385504Not even close. They're the laughing stock of Europe only propped up by their massive economy. Everyone knows they're a lost cause to their new islamic state. They're culturally insignificant.
>>282385556I mean he's talking about reading some article by some peon of the journalist caste. They're not going to worry about that part. To the extent it has any material basis they're talking about brands and real estate prices.
Introduction: A Scene That Could Change Anime ForeverPicture the scene: a lavish royal ball, chandeliers glittering, nobles whispering from the sidelines. Music swells as a Black knight, dressed in gleaming ceremonial armor, takes the hand of a radiant European-coded princess in a flowing gown. They dance beneath the starlight, but instead of stopping there, the moment crescendos into what anime almost never dares to show — a loving kiss shared across cultural and racial boundaries.This single kiss, framed in anime’s signature artistry, could ripple far beyond its fictional ballroom. It would challenge tropes, redefine representation, and spark conversations about what love stories in anime can and should look like in the 21st century.Why Anime Has Avoided This MomentAnime thrives on romance, but it has also been careful — even restrictive — about who gets to kiss whom. The most common pairings fall into three categories:Japanese boy × Japanese girl (classic high school romance).European-coded noble × European-coded knight/prince (fantasy romance).Occasional Japanese boy × foreign/European-coded girl (isekai or harem dynamics).Notice what’s missing? A Black male protagonist at the center of romance, especially with a White-coded heroine. While Black-coded characters exist (Canary in Hunter x Hunter, Yoruichi in Bleach, Carole in Carole & Tuesday), they rarely receive mainstream, affectionate love stories.The cultural impact of finally seeing a Black man as the romantic lead is massive:Validation: Fans of African descent see themselves not only as fighters or comic relief, but as worthy of love and nobility.Normalization: Interracial romance becomes normalized on-screen, reflecting real-world diversity at long last!Global Reach: Anime is now a global phenomenon. A Black × White royal romance resonates with audiences across continents.I am very excited for animes global debut by smashing norms and racial barriers.

>>282385217Anime is evolving, and it's time to celebrate a groundbreaking shift in representation. For years, we've seen familiar pairings dominate the screen, but now, a wave of change is sweeping through the medium. Black male protagonists are stepping into the spotlight—not just as side characters or warriors, but as romantic leads, paired with White-coded heroines in beautiful, heartfelt love stories.This new narrative isn’t just about breaking conventions; it’s about showing that love transcends racial and cultural boundaries. The inclusion of Black male and White female couples in anime is a powerful symbol of diversity, offering fresh and authentic depictions of romance that reflect the world we live in.As anime becomes a global phenomenon, it's embracing new voices, new stories, and new relationships that resonate with audiences everywhere. This is a celebration of love, equality, and the beauty of seeing all kinds of people represented in anime. The future is bright, and it’s beautifully diverse.
>>282385761>Black male protagonistsname one
>>282385761I know!Anime's evolving representation of interracial relationships, especially the portrayal of White heroines giving birth to Black babies, is a groundbreaking and refreshing shift. This is more than just a new narrative; it's a celebration of love that transcends racial boundaries. For years, anime stuck to familiar character dynamics, but now, it’s embracing diversity and reflecting the multicultural world we live in.In real life, interracial couples are becoming more common, and anime is finally catching up by showing these relationships as central to the story. When a White heroine and Black male protagonist fall in love, and even have children together, it’s a powerful symbol of breaking old conventions and highlighting the beauty of interracial families. These depictions reflect the diversity that exists in society today, and show that love isn’t confined to one racial or cultural group.Seeing White heroines give birth to Black children is also a visual celebration of mixed-race families, where children inherit unique traits from both parents, blending cultures and identities. Anime's ability to portray these relationships with depth and heart adds an exciting layer to storytelling, making it feel more authentic and inclusive.This is a step forward in normalizing interracial families in media, and a clear reflection of how anime is embracing a more inclusive, diverse future. It’s not just about love—it's about breaking barriers and showcasing the richness of human connection in all its forms.
>>282385217Ah, so it only took them a whole 15 years to learn they were leaving fuckloads of money on the table.Welp, say goodbye to anime having passionate artists behind them. They're too expensive.
>>282385777A lot of anime protagonists, particularly the ones with standout personalities, often have characteristics that are "black-coded" or carry Afrocentric influences. While this might not always be explicitly acknowledged, certain traits—like physical features, cultural references, and even the character's bold, confident, or rebellious attitudes—are heavily reminiscent of Black culture. This has become increasingly clear in the designs and storytelling around main characters.Many iconic anime heroes, from Dragon Ball Z's Goku to Naruto, have been described as Afro-blended due to their strikingly unique, often non-Japanese physical traits, like fuller lips, broader noses, and darker skin tones in certain versions of the show. These traits, paired with their larger-than-life personalities—determined, strong, and unapologetically bold—reflect elements commonly associated with Black culture and identity.The idea of "black-coding" comes into play when we recognize how these characters often embody themes such as struggle, resilience, and defiance, which mirror the experiences of many Black communities around the world. In this way, anime can be seen as a reflection of global cultural exchange, with certain design and narrative choices drawing inspiration from Afrocentric aesthetics, while offering a platform for these characters to lead the charge in epic stories.Anime’s ability to blend influences and create complex characters means it’s also embracing the strength and dynamism that Black culture has long been known for, contributing to a more inclusive, multicultural representation in the medium. The main characters in these shows may not always explicitly be Black, but their traits and influence make them part of this larger, Afro-blended narrative.
>>282385334>>282385258>>282385217madness. all the previous gov-funded animes flopped. including the shameless tourism promo ad animes, and gatchaman crowds.
>>282385217They have tried this like 10 times already, are they retarded?

>>282385217Why are they so late?They usually look down on anime, but maybe after seeing the global success of Demon Slayer, they must have panicked and hurriedly changed their policy.It’s something I always think when I read Japan-related news, the government of this country is always a lap behind in global information.If I were the Prime Minister of Japan, I would’ve done this ten years ago.
>>282385871>Many iconic anime heroes, from Dragon Ball Z's Goku to Naruto, have been described as Afro-blended due to their strikingly unique, often non-Japanese physical traits, like fuller lips, broader noses, and darker skin tones in certain versions of the show.

>>282385990>>282385927>>282385911>>282385906The world is changing, and so is the media we consume. The increasing diversity we see in anime, especially with Black-coded characters, is a reflection of the global shift towards multiculturalism. Countries around the world, including the U.S., are becoming more diverse, and it’s important to recognize that this is a positive thing.Black culture and Afrocentric influences have always been a significant part of global culture, from music to fashion, and now, we’re seeing it reflected more in anime and other forms of media. These shifts aren’t just trends—they’re a sign of the times. Interracial relationships, the blending of cultures, and the embracing of different identities are becoming the norm, not the exception.If we want to stay connected with the world around us, we have to accept that diversity is here to stay. It’s not about “getting with the times” as much as it is about acknowledging the world we’re living in—one that celebrates the richness of all cultures and backgrounds. Rather than resisting change, let’s celebrate the opportunity to explore new perspectives and stories that reflect the real, diverse world we live in.

>>282385334>people go and see anime film instead of American film>"this means we should make anime films more american"Sounds like a plan
>>282386736What are you doing about the rise of trannies?
>>282385217So can we get an anime with action and plot but with actual attractive characters? Or is it still going to be the same ugly shit like chainsaw man, cyberpunk, demon slayer, JJK, and bleach?
>>282386719>Germany pays for basically everything that happens in europe and a lot of the world.That sounds more like a con than a pro.

>>282386887Yeah It sounds more like a contra against Germany rather than something than beneficts them, that's kinda the whole point of soft power, that's something that make you gain cultural power, rather than spends trillons on military dominance.

>>282385217Someone nuke the US and Israel already for god's sake
>>282385217This is the logical conclusion.The economy has been stagnant for decades. India just surpassed them as 4th largest economy. They're shifting legacy chips to India. Importing 500k Indians.It's clear to everybody that the traditional industries are not going to save Japan.That leaves anime.
>>282387014I hope they realize that a large part of why people liked anime in the first place is because it wasn't the same thing as western stuff, rather than turning the industry extremely safe and globalized in an attempt to appeal to the "wider audience", which will inevitably just cause yet another industry crash.
>>282387014The whole stagnant Thing it's a meme by the long run since 90% of Europe it's on the same but they import trillons of third world consumers to compense It (didn't work in the long run) and the india surpass them in gpd it's irrelevant since every sane person with two eyes know Japan it's a trillón better place to live than India, the migration Thing yeah but it's just the natural path of a capital industry
>>282386862Then why I don't see any chink board? Checkmate
>>282387063doing anything less than trying to appeal to as wide an audience as possible is anti-capitalism and will see you fired by the stakeholders and replaced by someone who will
>>282385217what they mean is filling the pockets of execs with tax money and outsourcing shit to indiaand more censorship of course
>>282387021We already know the answer is no.
>>282386971>I thought most of their money are domestic?People always forget most of the big gachas money is merchandise not just the app puchases.
>>282387063They've been adjusting the content to the global audience anyways, even without government funding. But this will accelerate it for sure.>>282387069You're conflating economic stagnation with population stagnation. Japan's economy has been stagnant for decades. The population thing is not the government's priority right now. They need a stable industry that is not threatened by other countries. Traditional industries don't serve that purpose. So it's anime.
>>2823870714chan has been laughably out of touch with the rest of the netosphere for a very long time
>>282385217>California, home to Hollywood, the center of the film industry, is also providing significant subsidies and tax incentives.It's over.
>>282387014yeah importing 500k bio-weapons seems like the solution
>>282387063The problem will always be that its western.Ever try to read indie books? They all suck because they're doing the same thing with fantasy, romantic fantasy, isekai, and """lit rpg""" but they are all dull and boring due to being to western coded.

>>282387279and this mean what exactly
>>282385217Crazy how Japs are slow to act. If they did this back in the early 2000s they'd be dominant industry instead of relying on foreign platforms.

>>282385217>Government wants to expand support!>By "supporting more," they get "more control!">This way, not following politicians' views is considered FEDERAL CRIME!!Yay!
>>282385217As much as I love muh anime, doesn't Japan has more pressing issues at the moment? Like high grocery prices including rice and low birthrates.
>>282385431>USA Definitely true. They have such cultural influence that nearly every country has a sub-section of Americanized retards that forget what country they are from.>ChinaThey sell cheap stuff everywhere, directly or indirectly participate in industrial projects all over the world, with all of the influence that brings. They recently started to break into various entertainment industries.>JapanJust look at where we are, the popularity of Japanese media in general and high reputation of Japan.>GermanyDeutscheQualität. Also the nucleus of EU. Their money funds pride parades in my shithole.
>>282387315 China doesn't compete with anyone and wants the best to both sides, in other words softpower
>>282387356That's exactly why they focus on entertainment.
>>282387550ok, but how does it make their soft power better than the japs. Nobody really watch their product like doinghua ang shits
>>282385217>all anime will be marvel movies for westoidsgrim
>>282387356Every first world country has these problems now
>>282387326>if they censored stuff for global audience earlier, they'd be aheadThey're here because they didn't do this earlier.
>>282387326Nah this obviously has a lot to do with the US self-destructing. Nobody is supposed to be able to wipe the floor with 300 million dollar US entertainment industry versions of aircraft carriers like Pixar movies with a $20 million anime. They just had no shot back then when the US wasn't having constant heart attacks from its own insanity.
>>282387326they didn't have the money to do so back then, they were still reeling from the lost decade
>>282385217Anime has been globohomo sanitized garbage for almost 15 years now, what does this change exactly? There have been like 1 or at most 2 good anime every year for the past 15 years, so long as that doesn't change they can do whatever they want with a normalfag core medium
>>282385358From afar his avatar kinda looks like the contrarian guy from chainsaw man lol
>>282385217This was a core demand of Sanseito party (led by a wall toucher) in the opposition. If they didn't do it now, he would have. It was inevitable.
>>282387356People used to have children out of boredom. The internet killed boredom. There is no solution for this. When people realize there are far better things to spend your life on than children, of course the birthrate will become unsustainable. This may simply be the natural next step in the evolution of a civilization.
>>282385217By this they mean actual Japanese government or the current "diverse" Japanese government?
>>282387799All the genes of people that can be nihilistic enough to not want kids will get purged from the species. I just wonder if what's left will still be capable of civilization.
>>282387356the low birthrates are because nobody that's just barely staying above the poverty line despite both them and their partner working full time jobs is going to willingly have a kid and plunge their household below the poverty linethe diet can either raise the minimum wage, or start offering a lucrative parent pension+free higher education, or else institute an ABIbut they won't do that and they all know it so they're just going to keep ignoring the problem and hope it goes away if they just find some way to inflate japan's economic growth, even if all that does is create a new bubble economy and make things even worse 30 years from now
>>282387799The current economic environment exacerbates this too. Making every other form of activity prohibitively expensive and getting everyone stuck in their homes hooked to their ipads endlessly doomscrolling.
>>282387931This is such a bullshit cope, people have had kids up to their elbows at 1/100th the current per capita GDP. Nobody wants to have kids.
>>282388051In the past there wasn't shit like CPS or child support so randoms could just pop kids out indefinitely without any regard for responsibility didn't matter if some of them got sick and died from neglect as long as a few made it to adulthood however fucked up they were. The truth is most people suck, kids suck and no one wants to be the responsible one and sacrifice their life to raise another.
>>282385217Japan is becoming more diverse with a growing black and indian diaspora, as japan slowly grows to accept cultural and ethnic diversity from migrants this is the next expected response. Anime should cater to people of color as they are growing in number as a global dominating force. Anime becoming more diverse is great desu.
>>282387931Time is more valuable than money.
>>282387192>Meanwhile nobody can afford housing in Cali, people's houses burn down, everything is expensive as fuckPeople say NYC is a third world country with a Gucci belt, I'd say the entire country feels like that. Maybe the midwest and other sparsely populated states have a different feeling to them.
>>282388216this
>>282388222There are people who make double what I make but have no savings because they spend it all on their living expenses.
>>282388216Bait but I support Orania and hope they can secede and make people like you seethe forever lmao.
>>282388151I mean, people don't Talk about this but kids used to have a material porpuese back then, my grandpa had 15 childrens, most work at the farm, 4 died on It, my dad became pretty wealthy by some special works he did after the URSS fall, how many kids did he have after became 10th more wealthy than his dad? Two of them, one me and my sister, we both have zero children and she's 35 and i am 29, the intensives to have kids? Idk don't make my mom sad i guess, but i am broke and my collage career didn't make me more wealthy anyway
>>282388333My degree made me very wealthy and I dont want kids either. They can be cute but I dont see a point in marrying a woman.
>>282387721>they didn't have the money to do so back then, they were still reeling from the lost decadeThey have even less money now. The industry is still piss fucking poor. All that money goes to their governments pockets. The animators get jack shit.
>>282388222> I'd say the entire country feels like that.yeah it's this deeply entrenched fetishization of commodities
>>282387356As another anon said every first world country has these problems now and my tinfoil hat opinion is its by design to lower the overall population because 50% of the population will be unable to work and be completely useless within the next 50 years as AI takes over half of every job that exists
>>282385684>2025>Germany>carslmao
>>282388333Same I'm 35, working full time yet broke and living with my parents. They're both unemployed but still think its the 90s and keep pestering me to start a family despite my entire paycheck only enough to feed the 3 of us and keep the roof over our heads.
>>282388333>>282388635Hm im a neet, maybe the future is neet
Whether you incel /a/ losers like it or not, your pedo loli shit and fan service hindered the medium and its nice to see that Japan is realizing this.
>>282388621>by designYou severely overestimate the competence of our world leaders.
>>282388715the future is human batteries
You should ALWAYS gatekeep things you like
>>282385217This means next to nothing other than we might get new studios opening to produce generic slop. Why are doomfaggots getting so worked up over this? Japan has been doing this shit for nearly two decades now.
>>282388874What else is there to watch? Television is dying, Hollywood is dying, the news nothing but sheep herders keeping the sheep on high alert of the wolves. You can only re-watch old shit for so long.
>>282388941Read eroge, theres enough moege to last you a life time and moege is still being made often unlike every other genre.
>>282388941>What else is there to watch?if you don't know tyen you don't deserve to know
>>282389017>read sludge that isn't even made by real deviants
>>282389084>real deviantsVisual novels are 10x more deviant then anime, even moege wut
>>282389020I do know, im a neet enjoying my seasonal anime im stating that this is how the average normie feels and this is why anime is gaining more and more traction
>>282389105Visual novels are like creepypastas except with sex instead of realistic blood.
>>282388755They don't care about loli, the character could be a tall 26yo woman, phd student in some series about science and physics, that she won't be allowed to wear revealing things either. That shit is a scapegoat, they just don't want us to have fun anymore, look at Highschool DxD, most characters were total bimbos, yet California won't allow it if they're given control.
>>282386861They are matriarchal faggots and of course their women are extremely insecure even about fucking 2d women
>>282389133What? Read maggot baits or sadistic blood or dead end aegis or euphoria or Shin'yaku In'youchuu etc if you want extreme violence and gore.
>>282389105its all tame and shallow shit made by boring sane losers. most of it never goes further than safe-horny rape scenarios and a bit of guro
>>282386006The reason why even normies are going to anime is because they have n. fatigue.Not kidding, it's just that kills your soul when you see those everyday
>>282389229No it isnt - >>282389179
>>282388755Loli and otaku works will continue unimpeded as there is still a good audience for them. They will also continue to out perform all of the normalfag garbage. Hell, funding may end up going to otaku works after the government realizes they are simply better than shonen shit and isekai sewage.
>>282389179Maggot Baits was so good, props to the seiyuu of the girls for their scream, so hot.
>>282385358Pochita won.
>>282389278yeah they were good, I like sadistic blood more then when I want eroguro rape, not too into insects
>>282389179>extreme violence and gore.yawnI need freakier than that
>>282389179I never said I wanted gore. I was mostly talking about how it comes out of nowhere and is pretty graphic in creepypastas which otherwise are supposed to appear like normal games. I was joking that visual novels are like that but with sex. One moment you are saving Moe-chan and then the next you are thrusting your dick into her.
>>282389344Describe what you are interested in>>282389345Thats true but it all depends on how well its handelded, usually not too well like most stories but sometimes it works.
>>282385258I'm just happy there was enough stuff made before everything went to shit to last me a life time.
>>282389319Yeah, I prefer the sadism myself as well, it's nice that there are still VN that appeal to people like me.
>>282389386It is also good that the Japanese still make nice stuff to entertain us. The anime industry's perseverance should be looked towards as inspiration. No other industry has stayed this consistent in quality.
>>282387696America self-destructed it's animation industry around the 2000s/2010s so it's not really surprising they went after anime with greenmailing because they're too retarded and braindead to ever admit that their own animation is raped and have to loot other media to make up for it.>>282387750This
>>282389654Most Americans hate American animation. The problem is that the animation companies got taken over by people who hate themselves and their country and then proceeded to fire everyone with actual skill (companies like Disney don't even know how to do 2d animation anymore). Passion matters a lot to animation. It is why anime can be so good and why stuff made by people who explicitly hate passion tends to be bad. Also, I'd say American animation died around the 90s with only a few holdouts lasting longer.
>>282389837I legit can't fucking understand ugly worship. Like, even the ugliest nip is able to draw something beautiful
>>282390057Ugly people want things to be ugly. That or they got raped by post-WW2 retard logic
>>282390098ugly egocentric people you mean, the types that thinks that they are only considered ugly because of the media instead of basic human sense
>>282390098No, before ugly people used to do cool shit.
>>282389264Not that retarded anon but loli anime has been dead for more than a decade, anime has been mainstream for a really long time now and the quality of the works nowadays reflect that, just look at the screenwriter of Bocchi the Rock gloating about censoring the anime and calling the mangaka vision noise, almost every popular anime nowadays is bloated with 3dcg, aftereffects and super fast and unimpressive animation for people with adhd, it is what it is.
>>282390098OG otaku culture is full of ugly people and that was the best time to be an otaku
>>282385684They castrate their cars with ungodly amount of emission regulation or outright mandate manufacturing EVs.
>>282385217Demon Slayer is the Star Wars of anime. It's over.
>>282385258You need to be louder and more annoying, not even joking here.
>>282386813Art is subjective and all that but I dunno how anyone could say Bleach and Demon Slayer don't have attractive characters, especially the former.
>>282386082where do you come from nigger?
>>282385258If the nips are too stupid to keep hollywood long-noses from ruining anime then they only have themselves to blame for their own greed. All they need to do is just look at how much of a failure hollywood has become in the last 10 years and say "NO"
>>282392238nips are whores for money like anybody else. the people that won't whore themselves out are never allowed near the top of the pyramid
>>282385217>Meanwhile, Japan's most recent related budget was approximately 25.2 billion yen. It is said that domestic production companies are not receiving sufficient support, and as a result, they are hesitant to expand overseas.There, saves you the time.Nothing happens (as usual).
>>282386533>muh AmericanHow dare you Europeans fucking lecture Americans on everything? You have hate speech laws, you have no right to self defense, you have hordes of migrants arriving on your doorstep. You are worse on everything? Like even now, you act like you aren't liberal but you are denying race.
>>282390057Art has been in that decline, not just animation. Their laziest argument is that "cameras made realistic painting worthless" when the point of realistic painting is to embellish it with tools that no camera can ever produce, and also to appreciate how a skilled artist could use paint to simulate real-life textures while also appreciating paint textures in themselves.Then it was just a constant ego trip by artists. Picasso was very skilled in his youth, but he wanted attention, so he started drawing like a schizo intentionally, which voila worked wonders for him financially, but in the end his later shit is ugly as fuck. Then it became worse when masses outright accepted it, to the point people crowd museums just to get their social media validation "Oh em gee I am watching (not really) a Picasso, look how refined I am!!!"Animation was just one of the latest media to succumb to this retarded trend, cue Richard Williams complaining about not being able to find any praiseworthy or even above-mediocre draftsman in modern college programs. He passed away and so did his teachings.Moreover, you can see this happening already in CGI effects for top-budget movies. The first Transformers movies, Spiderman, any capeslop or sci-fi movie pre-2020s has surprisingly better grasp of materials, explosions and other effects than modern CGI, to the point you can tell nowadays they look fake as fuck; shit, sometimes you can also see where the green screen starts because even background artists have gotten lazier and less skilled.
>>282385258It was good while it lasted.
>>282392181kubo has always been a bad artist
Good. Anime has been absolute dog shit since the 2000s after Japan's economy collapsed.
>>282385217On one hand that probably means more studios have more funding and support to get high quality adaptations greenlit.on the other hand>>282385258As this guy implies, Japan has absolutely no idea how self-destructive Hollywood is.Given the chance westoid will run even a beloved series into the ground regardless of how much input the original creators gives.Also doesn't help that the average normalfag have horrible taste and will go watch Marvel tier slop instead of experimental stuff, further leading the Japanese industry to chase incentives in the west that will only stamper, if not outright censor their creativity.Sadly, just like the in the west, the 80 yo boomers that don't care/understand how demographics work also still sit in high positions over there.It's looking grim.
