Hayao Miyazaki on modern anime, via Roland Kelts the author of 'Japanamerica.'
>"Hayao Miyazaki said to me at one point: 'The problem with young anime artists today is that the only thing they study is anime. When we were young, we studied French literature, we studied impressionism, we read Dostoevsky. We swallowed everything. And then we went and created original anime. But if you grow up and all you watch is anime, you're just regurgitating spinning wheels.'"
>>
>>292143405
Anno said the same thing. The lack of interest for anything outside anime is a real problem in the anime industry
>>
>>292143405
Wasn't this faggot working as an animator? All he did was anime. I'm sure he had a lot of time to read Dostoevsky while slaving away for a bowl or rice.
>>
>>292143405
Every time I see his face in the catalog I'm hoping he died.
>>
>>292143405
Coming from someone that wants to fuck a 2D girl, the irony.
>>
>>292143657
Anno should shut the fuck up, he did nothing but otaku generic crap.
I give you Miyazaki cuz he truly is an airplane conesiour but Anno is nothing but your generic otaku fag.
>>
>>292143921
Miyazaki just makes saccharine Disney-lite movies for western normalfags.
>>
>>292143405
>the only thing they study is anime
Does he even have a study with big enough sample to prove it?
>>
>>292143921
Anno read a lot and watch a lot of movies. His favorite director is Kihachi Okamoto and his favorite movie is The Battle of Okinawa. Even his geeky tastes go beyond anime. His aesthetic is highly influenced by Gerry Anderson's shows
>>
>>292143405
As always garbage comments from that pretentious faggot. I dont understand people that praise him. Is a mediocre director with the ego of the world.

Love & Pop is a pretty cool movie, you should watch it.
>>
Anime is a lot more consumer friendly than actual real-world literature. Tell me, does anyone here have any interests outside of entertainment media like nonfiction books?
>>
>>292143405
Even if that is true then people will just have their own interpretations of the existing media and use them in their works. Every actual author is bound to use whatever hobby, experience or anything they came across in their life, which creates something unique yet again. The balance always gets restored in the end.
>>
>>292145464
Not when all media they choose to engage with is extremely shallow and they have no life experience because all they do is consoom
>>
>>292145407
Once upon a time there were ambitious producers who would look for well-read writers and artists and secure financing for their experimental ideas, see Yasuyuki Ueda.
Unfortunately they are a dying breed as the industry has consolidated around producing the same inane bullshit over and over with no room for experimentation.

Miyazaki is a goddamn pedo elitist and Go Nagai will always be above him.
>>
>>292145323
Anno's live action filmography goes from pretty great to fucking great
>>
>>292145112
Because of his influence, you'll learn one day. Yeah he hasn't made anything good in a long time but a lot of things you like can be owed to him. Not sure why he goes out of his way to be such a miserable insufferable cunt but you can only respect him.

The modern "rightist" politicians are in support of lgbt and mass immigration so they aren't conservative at all, they definitely are not conservative or reactionary

They aren't left wing just because they don't live up to the standards of basement dwelling neonazis like you who demand race war now. The entire reason right wingers have to pay lip service to left wing social issues is that the masses have firmly come down on the side of progress. Plus all of you are closeted faggots.

>>
>>292147096
No, they advocate it everyone but themselves personally because all right wingers are fundamentally just selfish sadists. All the christian nationalists want to establish a theocratic government that allows them to marry white children and keep white women as slaves, passed from father to husband, because they're all pedophiles. All the xenophobia stuff is a ruse to pretend that there's some kind of threat or injustice demanding the enslavement of women as a solution. That's why they all talk about ending women's suffrage. All the antisemitism of the right is just another example of using a random scapegoat to project onto, while the left wing anti-Zionist principles are rooted in opposition to genocide, apartheid, and colonialism.

Right wingers themselves are everything they pack into the racist stereotypes they obsess over. They're the subversive, lying pedophiles like they call Jews. They're the violent, lazy, stupid parasites they call immigrants. Their only problem with Epstein is that he wasn't white and they didn't a turn on the island.

It seems like your programming hasn't been updated in a year or two. Since you missed it, the democrat party is in the process of a purge where anti-Zionist candidates supported from grass roots campaigns have taken seats from AIPAC paid politicians. The most dramatic example being in the Michigan senate race where the AIPAC backed loser of the primary endorsed the AIPAC backed Republican after failing to take the campaign hostage with demands to kowtow to Israel.
Of course, you will never update your programming because you need a way to cope with all right wingers who have left their parents' basements being pedophile Zionists who will never care about your whining either.

>>292147375
Jewish voters in Michigan backed the anti-Zionist option decisively. Jewish Voices for Peace has been perhaps the most public and active protest group against Israel's actions, capable of "takeover" protests that would be instantly shut down if non-Jewish groups tried to organize them. Antisemitism is retarded shit for nazi cattle. Race isn't real.

Those people have never talked down on college, this is a myth invented by urban parasites to feel better about their own degenerate status.

Board policy is not to delete template spam threads as long as there's only one of each type up, except for a few types that might actually get deleted because of how much they've been spammed previously. Sometimes with the iphone posted ones you can see the "img_XX" tick up sequentially as he makes OPs. Mods will even delete a few of those threads but leave some of the same poster's other spam threads up.

It's all totally incoherent moderation because enforcing real rules would mean exterminating the weird shitpost cults and lone schizos whose spam makes up like 80% of board activity.

It's a problem for any art. Art if made out of life experiences, not out of art, so art about art is inherently incestuous and this precise degeneracy can be witness nowadays in remakes. That is way remakes feel bad. Music shows examples when a group makes music "in the style of" instead of composing from feelings they had while living their lives.
The only way to transform intake of art into new art is to perform an alchemy of feelings, killing the author, planting his messages inside the mind and let them grow into completely different meanings. Watching anime or reading books can be a life but death is required for rebirth.
>>
>>292148681
How about drawing from your own experience rather than someone else's digested thoughts

>>292148764
>Art if made out of life experiences, not out of art
So artist don't actually need to study French literature and Dostoyevsky?
>>
>>292148251
Dostoevsky had problems while publishing Netochka Nezvanova and had to make concessions to the censorship. I think he was a proto-yurifag. Artists tend to be degenerates. Charles Dickens was the first moefag and The Little Mermaid was really about Hans Christian Andersen's gay angst
>>
>>292148772
From reading other things you get ideas of ways you can express things, do things in different ways. But unless you speak in irrelevant dialect your own language should have a suitable canon to learn from. acting like you need to study french is rather ridiculous.

No way, that started after the Bronze Age when it became vogue to put statues of maidens everywhere and later Greek thought would essentially derive from the belief that the bloom of youth at puberty was the closest state to divinity and thus to be revered (or stolen through ritual pedophilia). They even used a lot of similar language about burning feelings for the attraction to divine teenagers.

All of his works are bottom of the barrel bait though, there really isn't anything deep in any of his movies, the animation is good and his art style is appealing to normies but that could be said for thousands of other works in the anime industry.

I don't think it matters as much as people think. There's virtue to broadening your horizons, but it's not the difference between someone who puts their soul on the canvas and someone who makes derivative commercial junk. That comes from somewhere deeper than what media you've consumed.
>>
I mean, he's not really wrong, just a boomer faggot Expanding your views lets you think about things from different perspectives. Nowadays, the people making anime/LN/manga are just taking what they read/watched and tweaking it a little bit. Which ends up being a factory of derivative slop. At the same time, a lot of people of his time most likely did the same fucking thing, so he's just going "younger generation bad." Also consider the fact that most consumers do not like it when things are weird or different so people copy what works because that's what sells.

Yeah, maybe I generalized it a bit and sounded like I was 'blaming consumers for being mindless drones', but my point was more so there being way too much shit to consume.

No, it's a problem in presentation. The manga simply doesn't have that much to say for its length. Princess Mononoke follows a lot of similar themes to Nausicaa, but it's basically better in every way, in no small part because it's a movie and has to be tighter by necessity.
Nausicaa is like if Dune was written without any of the irony.

He's right to study the Western canon, after Japan lost the war, he's just studying the cringe French parts.
>>
>>292149762
He can study whatever he wants, he's just a hypocrite for looking down on others when he would be judged a pleb by his own predecessors
>>
>>292149724
That the time in which Miyazaki was born and lived, where the prestige status of ancient Chinese culture had been supplanted by Western culture, is long gone and irrelevant to his considerations, fucking retard
>>
>>292149789
>He can study whatever he wants, he's just a hypocrite for looking down on others
Yes, this is what i meant.
>he would be judged a pleb by his own [Eastern] predecessors
No. Because Japan has been trying to become Western since emperor Meiji, he should be judged by his Western predecessors.
>>
>>292149847
The prestige of classical chinese literature was not gone by then
>>
>>292149855
>he should be judged by western predecessors because japan lost a war once
retard
he's a hypocrite
japan actually defeated russia in a war so he's still a hypocrite anyway, russia isn't part of the west in modern terms
>>
>>292149655
Who told you he doesn't/hasn't? Quote clearly says "as a young man" and by the way he's known to be pretty much more well-read than everyone in the industry. And yes that includes eastern books. Read about him and his interests if you care that much you stupid faggot.
>>
>>292149894
>Lost a war once
Anon... Japan has pretty much integrated into the West.
Dammit, i don't have "owari da" saved.
>>
>>292149967
>he's known to be pretty much more well-read than everyone in the industry.
You and every other moron ITT are confusing him for Isao Takahata. Even Oshii is more well-read than Miyazaki.
>>
>>292150025
Him and Takahata are above everyone else, retard. You don't know shit.
>>
>>292150040
Go ahead, substantiate the claim that he read even a tenth as much as Takahata ever did.
>>
>>292150072
Read the opinions of literally anyone who's interacted with him in the industry. Everyone gets humbled. Read what he has fucking written, he has talked about classical Japanese literature and history, for example (but not just) around the time of Mononoke-hime's production, debating other writers and thinkers. He's respected as an intellectual in Japan for a reason.
You're clearly another retard wildly extrapolating from the very little you've researched or just come across about this man, with nothing to substantiate your idiocy. Just fuck off already and read up before commenting. There's tons of material on him from good sources.
>>
>>292150292
Amazing. Nothing to back up your claims but hot air.
>He's respected as an intellectual in Japan for a reason.
Who are you kidding?
>>
>>292150292
>He's respected as an intellectual in Japan
In Japan or in the industry?
>>
>>292150352
Read his interviews and those of major staff talking about him. You can start with one posted already: >>292147620
Read his essay collections Starting Point and Turning Point and look for more.
Watch the all the official Ghibli documentaries, there's a ton, not just about movie productions.
You can start here if you're lazy https://www.nausicaa.net/miyazaki/interviews/

In Japan.
>>
>>292143732
I read his Wikipedia page a couple months back. Holy shit, he is even more insufferable and douchey than the media led me to believe. I'll give back the entirety of Ghibli if I can only have this Japnigger strewn up by his scrotum in the year 1946.

Yeah extensive inbreeding is never good for any sort of medium. The more you experience the more inspiration you can draw from when creating art. It's an ice cold take but it needs to keep being said to remind people.

Miyazaki is a military otaku lolicon who clearly wants to animate tanks driving over civilians with his child bride in the seat next to him but he feels guilty and has invented layers of cope as to why actually, he loves tanks and tomboys in more subtle, nuanced ways than everyone else.

Tomino absolutely nailed him on this. He's just a dishonest guy.
>>
>>292143405
This is not exclusive to anime. This is a problem in every medium. It's part of the reason why modern culture is so flat: video games only draw on other video games, films only draw on other films, etc.
>>
>>292152551
This isn't true and it's weird how so many people keep repeating it. If you want to use video games as an example people shit all over anyone that wants to bring other influences into it (like from movies). Which makes sense because it often lessens the game aspect of it. And in terms of anime you can see how much people shit on the Chainsawman anime for daring to try and be less anime-like. Not that I think it's wrong to criticize things like that but it's a direct contrast to people seemingly wishing creators would bring from outside their medium.

I feel like something got missed between the thoughts in the OP, and you guys' replies.
The idea being expressed was that other mediums were studied not for "ideas to steal/borrow", but to broaden their horizons, get them thinking in a wider box with a larger POV to create from. When he said "and then we went and created original anime," I seriously doubt he meant that to mean "and then we created our donutsteel shows but with a technique we got from X"
The idea rather was that if all you know is other anime, that's the only perspective you have. It's similar to if the only thing you've ever read/watched is isekai, that's what you think anime is. Anime is all that. And then you watch vampire princess miyu one day, or something similarly out of pocket, and it's like holy shit I didn't really realize this world was a thing like this.
>>
>>292152915
It's a distinction without a difference. These people with movie backgrounds going into video games or anime have broader horizons but it doesn't make what they make automatically good like it seems to be portrayed. Mangaka like tkmiz display a pretty wide knowledge of literature but are dismissed by many with various insults. Like many things, only a small number of people that fit the desire are actually praised for it. Most others are dismissed as pretentious or not fitting into the box like they're supposed to (like CSM's director was criticized for).

Tomino has literally said Miyazaki proved he's above otaku. Get up to date, retard.

>Tomino: The first time I saw The Wind Rises, I understood that he wasn't just a mecha otaku. He's made his stance on modern productions clear in some places, but here he's trying to take back the Zero from the military otaku.

>>292152479
Miyazaki having common sense and having restraint is one of his better qualities as an artist. Too many just go full-hedonism without any discipline and that's partly what lead to the current predicament that anime has today.
>>
>>292153556
No that's nonsense, he was the only one to say the realistic thing that it was crazy to make a random artist a first time director because you liked his drawings. He was the only fair critic on any side of it because he knew from the start what the result would be in making a mistake so fundamental to the process.

This whole thing is just drama slop that gets circulated online for gossip addicts.
>>
It's not confined to anime. All entertainment media is the same. The people making movies & television today have never read or watched anything except for shitty Marvel comic books, and it shows in how puerile the products are. These "people" have never gone fishing outdoors, they've never read The Great Gatsby, they've never hired a whore in Vegas and run a train on her with three guys you just met at the Blackjack table. Kids these days, they've never done anything real.
>>
>>292153742
They've never walked into a business and given the manager a firm handshake to get a high paying job either.
>>
There are also lack of praise and exposure when it comes to the great anime of today because the premise is too alien for "modern" audience.
>>
>>292153432
Tomino has since become a doddering old man. He lost everything when his virility faded and now he rambles, which is why Turn A was razor sharp in its purpose and g-reco is complete nonsense.
It's still true and also has nothing to say about him obviously being an embarrassed lolicon.
>>292153650
If he had restraint he wouldn't make all his works so blatantly self-indulgent, with cool older men that young girls love and aircraft and tanks flying around, coated with an overly sweet shell of niceness.
Oshii pointing out that porco is blatantly miyazaki self-inserting, smirking at the camera and flying cool planes and being adored by women young and old, was basically the second plane hitting miyazaki's legacy among his peers.
>>
>>292153742
>The people making movies & television today have never read or watched anything except for shitty Marvel comic books, and it shows
This is demonstrably false because the Marvel live action stuff looked completely different from the comics and then basically forced a reverse translation of the MCU aesthetics into the comics brand.

>>292143405
He's right, just look at Fujimoto, he's easily the most prominent newgen mangaka with multiple successful works instead of being an one hit wonder and that's just because he gets plenty of influence from movies instead of only manga and anime.
>>
>>292153788
Tomino has respected and praised Miyazaki since long before becoming an old man, shitposter.
>>
>>292143405
He's right and it's affected every single medium.
>>
>>292143405
This is true of nearly every artform of the last 20 years. Music, film, animation, vidya. Some of the best cartoons were made by men who studied at a university, survived a great war, then came home and said "fuck this, I'm drawing funny dog". Now animators with talent watch cartoons all day and cry before starting a youtube channel about "how Powerpuff Girls started a revolution"
>>
>>292143405
That's why isekai garbage is constantly being churned out.
