Why do I feel like almost all modern anime are completely forgotten after their season ends? There's barely any talk about anime from a couple years ago.
>>
>>288339042
Probably because you only engage with shounenshit

>>288339042
People watch the anime, talk about the anime and move on with their lives once they have nothing else to say.
This was rarer with older anime because the vast majority of viewers didn't watch them right as they aired like we do now, so the discussion is spread over longer periods of time.
>>
>>288339042
I contribute that to two main factors
1) there are so many shows nowadays. Before in the early/mid 2000s, you might see like 20 series released per year. Now, we have 20 shows released every season, and 100+ per year. The market is too broad and everyone is jumping from one show to another at a faster pace
2) back then, animes had starts and ends, granted if the show wasn't too obscure or bomb horribly. You had less time between new seasons, and a lot more to discuss while you waited in anticipation. But now, it could be years, if ever, for the next season to release. Why bother discussing something that will never see the light of day again when you can just read the manga and watch something new
Those are my main theories at least

Nah, most of them were 12 episodes ads that only covered the beginning of the manga.
>>
>>288339141
No. They were 50 episodes bundles into two 25-ish episode seasons and made their own shit if the manga hadn't concluded. That's were fillers and absurd endings like Soul Eater came from

Early 00s and 90s had more than 12 episodes. What are you talking about? Off the top of my head, City Hunters, Cyborg 009, Ojamajo Doremi, Cyborg Kuro-chan, all had episodes in the 50s. Slam Dunk had it in the 100, but that's an old, so I won't count it. Azumanga Daioh hit 26 episodes. All those are from different genres so you don't accuse me of cherry-picking. The 12 episode manga advertisement only happened recently. I say recently, but then I remember the 2010s was over a decade ago
>>
>>288339167
Who would you say is a heinous criminal that shouldn't be forgiven other than Miranjo

in the first few episodes I thought Ranking of Kings was on track for a 10/10 but in the last few it kind of shot itself in the foot. the writer didn't want to ever just commit to someone being a villain, they would start out as a typical comically evil villain and then have a phase of showing conflicting motives and then at the end there's a teary sad backstory and forgiveness scene. it feels like the characters are different people at different parts of the story. a lot of manga have this problem but it doesn't make it any better. 7/10 overall.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Any discussion of this phenomena will have to start by acknowledging that it is not a phenomena observed only in the anime sphere.
New musical artists, new movies, new videogames all have very short cultural life-spans.

It has nothing to do with accessibility. Movies and music were always super accessible, so why is it that even as late as the 2000s, an artist or a movie could dominate culture for a decade+ and be talked about and discussed and become iconic.
While nowadays, no movie, anime or video-game could sustain attention for more than a year?

objectively false, don't talk about a time period when you weren't even born yet

damn don't you get tired of anime where two people fall in love with each other? you've seen it so many times after all. it's almost like basic facets of the human experience show up repeatedly in stories retard.

what argument are you even making? the order doesn't matter. my point is they quickly transitioned between completely different personalities.

>an artist or a movie could dominate culture for a decade+ and be talked about and discussed and become iconic.
this still happens all the time, it's just that you've stopped interacting with real people so you don't see it
your subjective and limited experience isn't representative of the world at large, you should know this by now
>music
>always super accessible
do zoomers think streaming has always been a thing? what the fuck is this guy even saying
>>
>>288339469
Yeah, and every fucking time it's gloomy 8 out of 10 looking boy who's a neet, outcast, and without a single friend who also happens to have the personality of a brick (almost like the loser target audience, minus the good-looking part, so they can easily self-insert as him) then meets the waifu of his dream who completely changes his life so now he's no longer a betafag.
How about you actually make characters with good personality, good romance, and actually make it believable, and not a vehicle for the lonely boys who are watching this crap so that they don't kill themselves
>>
>>288339522
nice goalpost moving, but aside from the obvious answer Miranjo, Bosse is the worst offender. he acts so inconsistently it's hard to tell what his motives even are.
>>
>>288339514
>who's a neet, outcast, and without a single friend who also happens to have the personality of a brick
Oreki is none of those things
>>
>>288339246
I do have to give KnY credit for that, it would show their sad backstory but still treat them as a villain. and they at least didn't do it for Muzan and several of the other main villains.
>>
>>288339464
>>288339512
I guess you have all the answers, geniuses.
Well guess what, you’re wrong. You have zero understanding of the broader image of culture.
Read Mark Fisher for more. People have been talking about this for longer than you care to think.

>>288339629
Nigga I asked you which character transitions from bad to good quickly because that was your claim. In what world does that qualify as moving the goalpost
Also, Miranjo doesn't go from evil to good that fast, like, again, how you claimed, it takes her until the last few episodes for that to happen.
>>
>>288339004
Ranking of kings was truely a 10/10
Too bad it was only 12 episodes. Kind of weird to end it right after they left the underworld and got a new weapon, but hey im glad they chose to do that instead of do something like ruining the rest of the narrative with a boring courtyard battle that absolutely killed the pacing, completely sidelining diada, doing a bunch of death fake outs over and over again just to have the big nose heal slut revive people then realize its a prolem and throw her in the cuck shed just to have THE FUCKING VILLAN OF YOUR SHOW START HEALING PEOPLE, resolving the shit with the demon thats been building up for the entire series in like 2 minutes, ending the show by randomly making daida marry someone who was essentially his mom, and making the villan suffer no consequences whatsoever eventhough shes responsible for everything happening cause she had one long women moment (seriously no one even fucking MENTIONS that she directly killed, as in not indirectly but just straight up murdered, the mcs mom).
Yea im glad they never did anything like that and it ended when it did. Cute show
>>
>>288339262
>The 12 episode manga advertisement only happened recently
Nah there were old anime that had 12 episodes or short ovas that were ads as well and the problem is that even 25+ episodes anime barely get discussions nowadays.
>>
>>288339760
Fortunately i read the webcomic and not muratas gay dbz fanfiction so its kino the whole way through
>>
>>288340398
Because only shounen crap gets 25 episodes, that, or a series that's already been running for years.
>>
>>288339331
Hyouka is unironically so good.
>>
>>288340431
>Because only shounen crap gets 25 episodes,
The series you've mentioned are shonen/kodomo as well. Orb got 25 episodes and the discussion just ended with it.
>>
>>288339512
>>288339464
You are still not engaging with his argument, which is that media in general behaves the same. Everyone moves from everything extremely fast.
>it's just that you've stopped interacting with real people so you don't see it
Ping Pong was a huge anime a decade ago but nowadays it doesn't get any discussion. Same with Space dandy.
>>
>>288340444
>considering the nose dive it took after the monster king arc
You mean the lord boros arc (the point one started focusing on mob psycho over opm and let murata take the wheel)
>>
>>288340469
I mean recently. Tokyo Revengers and Scum of Brave got 25 episodes, and they're both shonen. I'm saying, in the current time, only shonen get 25+ episodes or shows that have been running for a long time
>>
>>288339514
Hyouka is a mystery series not a romance one.
>>
>>288340499
>lord boros arc
Yeah him. The one with Platinum Sperm.
>>
>>288340500
>I'm saying, in the current time, only shonen get 25+ episodes
And I am saying that you are mostly right but there still are exceptions that get no discussions after they end.

name 5 animu made between 2018-2024 that still get discussion.

2nd half of the show was garbage
>>
>>288340516
You are mistaken my friend. Lord boros was the ending of season 1. Platinum sperm is a part of the monster association/garou arc. Or at least he is in the webcomic idk where muratas fanfiction places him.
>>
>>288340749
Then that's the one I'm talking about, the one with Garou. After the monster king's death, the show took a fat nose dive because there were nowhere else to go
>>
>>288340681
Ive never seen a show nose dive from an objective 10/10 to a 0/10 as hard and fast as rok did. Im honestly suprised it doesnt get discussed more for that alone but at least the threads were funny when it was airing.
>>
>>288340792
>0/10
That's an exaggeration.
>>
>>288340858
>pacing nose dives
>animation quality significantly worse (only good looking scene was bojis fight with his dad while nearly every part of the first half looked great)
>villain of the show flip flopping between her motivations because the author desperately wanted to write for steven uninverse.
>daida is no longer a character and just a vehicle for the kings and the villans backstory despite being a huge part of s1
>constant emotion baiting with multiple near death revival scenes, completely removing any stakes the show had before
>that fucking middle finger if an ending
Its really not.
>>
>>288339262
Just because you can name some exmples doesn't mean it's the majority. Late 90s and early 2000s was filled with shows that followed the standard of 12eps up to 23-26 episodes for a 2 cour like we do now.
