>unc tells me old anime is timeless
>nobody but him and other uncs watch it
why is it so hard for uncs to admit their show aged and doesn't appeal to anyone but the people nostalgic for it? All these anime with dated animation are watched by old people, not young people. Anime is not timeless.

They get new viewers, but it's often people who've matured a bit. Give kids into anime today time, and some will find their way to Ashita no Joe and love it. It obviously won't happen while awful slop is still mindblowing to them.

The quality of a show does not correlate with how popular it is.
New generations are completely viable with slop that is easy to digest.
You can have some sakuga keys being jingled and people will call it a 10/10

tell me why the beatles are "literally the worst band ever" while you're at it faggot. older animation has sovl, animation took a sharp decline in ~2010 and hasn't recovered since. maybe when you grow up a bit you'll appreciate the timeless influential anime instead of mindlessly consuming [trendy flavor of the month slop].

They see timelessness as the quality of a piece of media that remains good and enjoyable no matter how many years pass by.
You understand timelesness as the ability of a piece of media to always be popular and have an audience that renews itself no matter the era.

And it looks infinitely worse than the manga, especially when you actually watch the anime (most people here have not) and see how it has zero animation half the time. There's a few episodes where characters largely move through tweening, looks like complete shit.

You don't watch anime for animation you watch it to listen to the cool dub voices.

TV anime that came out prior to mid 90s aged like milk. OVAs and movies are timeless and still look great but TV anime in the 80s looked like shit. I don't know what kind of a mentalist would choose to watch DB/HnK instead of reading the manga today
>>
>>287558871
That's because the source material is shit in that instance so it's totally different.

Usually too short to even be worth watching.

What does that even mean? You refuse to watch Akira because it doesn't have 200 episodes? And there's a ton of old movies/OVAs that actually look good today
>Wings of Honneamise
>You're Under Arrest OVA
>Patlabor the Movie
>War in the Pocket
>Patlabor: Early Days
>Gunbuster
>Urusei Yatsura 2
>Space Adventure Cobra movie
>Jarinko Chie movie
the list goes on. And those aren't just "SOULFUL" in a meme way, they actually look good. Whereas almost every TV show from the era looks like shit

12 - 24 is the perfect number

>>287553080
Timeless doesn't mean that it didn't age, nor that it appeals to everyone. A timeless show is one that you can forget about for years, even decades, and yet it still evokes the same feeling you got when you watched it all those years ago. Old anime is timeless, because it's a time capsule that is rich in the feeling of the age it was made in. It will always hold appeal, both to the people who grew up with it, and for new people who are enamoured with a nostalgia they weren't around to develop.

We are not timeless. Anime is. On our journey from start to finish, we can stop by these little stations frozen in time, and refresh ourselves.

Zeta unironically looks good though. It's the first gundam with budget so unless you've tried to watch it without watching 0079 (which does look like the remains of s gouache tube trying to force itself on a brush sometimed) prior you will probably be amazed by how qualitative and smooth it is comparatively.

this. I got into older anime once I hit my 30s and I feel like it's a goldmine. Ironically, a lot of slop I watched in my 20s actually built up resistance to bad animation in general. The only thing I still had problems with was the pacing, but once you don't have time to bingewatch and start watching one or two episodes per day it all starts making sense - stuff like gundam isn't meant to be watched all at once: each week you needed a bit of plot and a bit of action, and that was the formula. Same with stuff like early one piece (and not with late flashback-piece): the recaps are actually useful if you think there was no internet and you only tuned in once a week.
>>
>>287553080
It varies. I've never seen someone watch Cowboy Bebop or NGE and say, "Yeah, I bet it was cool back in the day, but now it just feels outdated." No, the way people react to them today is identical to how people reacted to them back then.

But not everything is like that. After reading the Big 3 and Hunter x Hunter I decided to read HnK and YYH and I was pretty bored the entire time. I know the newer shounen owe a fucking lot to the older ones, since that's where they steal half their ideas from, but if I told you to read two books and asked you which one was better, you wouldn't really give a shit that one came out 10 years earlier, would you? You'd only care about the absolute quality. Maybe you should respect your elders, but you don't have to like them.

But at the same time, I'm not sure I'd be cheerleading for modern anime. Isn't it peculiar that these studios keep adapting manga from 15 years ago? Sounds like desperation.

>>287555420
>animation took a sharp decline in ~2010
I think that depends. Most people would say anime took a sharp decline in the early 00s because they went from handdrawn to digital, but if you're a battle shounen fan, the Big 3 are fucking unwatchable compared to zoomer shounen. It was an unspoken rule back in the day that anime was just a cheap commercial for the real product, its manga source material. It was shitty, but at least it was animated - that was the tradeoff. But modern shounen like MHA, JJK and KnY blow the manga out of the water. Studios have bigger budgets and use an off season schedule to make sure it almost always looks good and you don't spend ten episodes watching an explosion or have to watch two and a half years of filler arcs.

It absolutely does not. Try watching more than 5 episodes, quality deteriorates into nothing. ZZ starts with even better animation, and then also deteriorates into nothing

Music didn't improve in any meaningful way since the 60. Animation in TV anime absolutely did. JJK may be a retarded show but in terms of animation quality there's nothing even remotely comparable from the 80s, as long as we're talking TV anime
>>
>>287559116
>inb4 you pretend that shows like Gundam Z or Maison Ikkoku look good
Yes they do. And so do Urusei Yatsura, Ranma, Ashita no Joe 2, Macross, City Hunter, Kimagure Orange Road, Touch etc.
>b-b-but muh animation
Isn't everything. The artwork and cinematography of 80s anime wipe the floor with any modern slop.

Music did improve in some ways since the 60s. For one, most genres people enjoy today didn't exist back then, but also technology improved. One thing I always hear producers and critics say is that guitar work wasn't as clear using 60s recording technology so a lot of good guitarists from back then are underrated. Also, stereo didn't exist back then, you couldn't edit recordings without damaging them pre-digital, and covers were so prominent in the 60s you heard the same shit for years and no one ever knew who the original musicians were.
