Workers rights make this literally impossible by the way.

Western "Anime" isn't Anime. It's feminist propaganda and nothing else. All Western entertainment is propaganda in general to demoralize, divide and to pacify the population, it's not even remotely close to being escapist entertainment.
>>
Pipeline? That's not a pipeline. They just engaged an animation studio and then made the thing. Where's the "pipeline"?

I guess he means that specifically his production company is more capable of producing animations now that they have one hit under their belt? So maybe he thinks he can keep doing that? But there ain't no pipeline here.
>>

Dude, producing the Eve special supposedly set them back nearly a full year from animating the show. There is no fucking way they are going to do another show. They're not even doing more specials.

invincible releases a season of 8 episodes (that are really more like 16 episodes) a year

people are expecting the show to look JJK which has a release schedule that is more like 2-3 seasons a year (season 3 and 4 are essentially a split season)

basically what i'm getting at is the for the kind of release schedule invincible has, it has to make sacrifices
>but amazon has so much money!
they'd have to grow more production studios for animating invincible which has so many issues that i don't know where to start

Okay, I’m not crazy, but this season has much better animation than the previous three seasons by a lot. There are parts that look bad, but for the most part, the animation this season is very good.
>>
>>153474503
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

>>153474503
I think you just have really really low standards.
>>
>>153471689
Invincible had two artists
>>
>>153474513
Not really like take Season 4, Episode 4: most of the fight scene was good. The fight with Conquest itself was especially good. Episode 7 was good too. Even when Mark was getting beaten by the two robot Flaxans, that looked good
>>
>>153474446
its fast and cheap on the animation side, of course voice actors are the most expensive part of the series because that is the easiest component to have done on time and is very marketable
>>153474456
i suppose they could just start working with animation studios around the world just for individual episodes like what WB did for many of their shows in the 90s
but that could lead to heavy inconsistencies and a lot of back and forth between several studios and even languages because no fucking way could they do that domestically
>>
>>153471890
i like the comic-to-animation thing just cause it seems pretty obvious money-wise. adapt popular comic to screen. less time to write, more time to animate. it at least gives animators a job.

only difference is that we wont be producing 100+ cartoons per 3 months. and definitely not adapting comics that are still mid-run. ideally it's like 4 different studios doing 1 comic per year and yadayada yea
>>

>>153474503
It's better than Season 2, on par with Season 3, worse than Season 1 at its best/average, but better than Season 1's worst episode (which isn't a high bar)
>>
>>153474583
Maybe I am, but that doesn’t change the fact that this season’s animation is better than the last three seasons. Even if you think this season’s animation is bad, it’s still better than the last three.
>>
>>153474531
it had some highlights but 95% of the show was just static images talking to each other
>>
>>153474446
I mean

>>
>>153474589
I'd say a fast show would be something putting out 24-26 30-minute episodes a year.
Invincible puts out the equivalent of about 16 30-minute episodes a year, and they almost all look like shit.
>>
>>153473938
Which all gets redrawn over by like 1 japanese dude.
>>
>>153474597
>worse than Season 1 at its best/average
Season 1’s animation wasn’t that good—most of it was kind of bad. I think there were only two times with great animation: the Omni-Man fight between the Guardians and Episode 8.
>>
>>153474598
S1 definitely has the best animation overall, which also wasn't particularly good.
The ACTUAL best-looking Invincible thing is the Atom Eve special.
>>
>>153474629
>The ACTUAL best-looking Invincible thing is the Atom Eve special
yeah, this is true but I don't agree with the season 1 statement since it has that mars episode

Batman The Animated Series (85 30-minute episodes in 3 years)
Even a lot of modern anime are still able to put out 24 30-minute episodes in a year, hell, Shangri-La Frontier put out 50 episodes in less than 2 years.

>Batman The Animated Series (85 30-minute episodes in 3 years)
as stated before, a lot of WB's cartoons in the 90s worked with several studios for the production. many episodes with varying quality. it also was anything but cheap. they were working for toy money on the saturday morning slots when that was big. it was also bit of a prestige piece for the team trying to push batman and tv animation forward
>Even a lot of modern anime are still able to put out 24 30-minute episodes in a year, hell, Shangri-La Frontier put out 50 episodes in less than 2 years.
just because the show was released in 2 years doesn't mean it was in production for 2 years
there's also so many more factors to consider when talking about anime production vs cartoon production that we'll have to start bringing up everything from japan's education system to their market crash
>>
>>153474757
>it also was anything but cheap.
And I'll bet that even when adjusting for inflation, it probably had a lower budget per hour than Invincible does.
>>
>>153474769
we already discussed this, most of invincible's budget goes to voice actors
its not worth it to amazon to building more animation studios for invincble because when the show is over, then what

>>
>>153474843
japanese animators are also just paid less than american unionized workers
also compared to the west japan has an abundance of skilled animators and artists due to being the go to place for outsourcing animation which also led to the decline in skilled animators in the west
japan's education in the arts is also just better than the west, its cheaper for one, but since there are already more skilled artists (due to their actually being more work available even if you're paid less) it means there are better artist communities where people can teach each other
in american artistic education there's a much less emphasis on draftsmanship and other skills that carry over to animation. obviously there are still lots of good artists in the west but there's less of them willing to be paid how japanese are paid for animation
>>
>>153474918
Did you mean to respond to another anon? I don't know what that has to do with my post or question about the veracity of the claim invincible has a budget of 2.5 million per episode and most of it is spend on voice actors...

In any case I'm well aware of all those factors.

He should have had the brains and will to give actual good rewrites to Invincible's storyline but nope we are going to get the same actual shit story beats within the comic itself. How the hell a writer even thinks it's a good idea to have the Viltrumites remain in stasis for 900-1000 years after the Scourge Virus severely decimated their numbers and they aren't pumping out at least 100-150 hybrid babies every century at least. It almost shouldn't matter that they don't have an immediate compatible alien race to reproduce with because the immediate concern should be 1. Getting their population numbers up as fast as they can while having enough time to train them and 2. Maintaining their Galactic Empire as best as they can no matter what. Hell it doesn't even have to be intercourse to pop thos hybrids out as I'm sure the Viltrumites know what artificial insemination is before the Scourge Virus hit and if not they would have ran into an alien race that does that sort of thing in their population.

Kirkman seriously gives to much 'special treatment' to the Humans in the Invincible universe.

Very few anime are actually profitable in isolation.

Manga publishers commission anime, to boost sales because manga are cheap to produce and very lucrative.

Let's be honest, it's mostly for teenagers. It could have aired on something like adult swim with other similar shows. Anime also makes merch for teenager/adult shows.
>>
>>153471660
>manga-to-anime pipeline
That "pipeline" is shit even in Japan. Only a microscopic tiny fraction of manga adapted to anime is complete. Everything else is just 1-cour 12 episodes of the prologue arc. That's it. There's no resolution to the main plot.
It's even worse if they decide to go with the movie route.
>>
>>153480378
Why did Invincible even have to do that? Offloading all that work on like 4 people is so retarded considering that they are funded by a company that has made millions.
>>
>>153473528
You're gonna have to elaborate on that beause french animation is either all managed in California or Canada and outsourced to the usual suspects, or zero budget stuff like Bobbypills or, these days, Ankama
>>
>>153480414
True, but with the changes made to the show from the comics and the "celebrity" voice cast and what they focus on in terms of writing and production, it's clear that Kirkman wants Invincible to be taken seriously like other TV Dramas, so less Dragon Ball and more Breaking Bad. Which is definitely the wrong decision.

Anon, almost the whole point of the anime is to advertise the source material, not to completely adapt it.
That's the point of the pipeline, you put out a show to get people to read the source material so they can see how the story continues, if the story gets completely adapted, that's just a bonus.

They have that because there is a big audience of people who still like reading light novels and comics there creating a large demand. I don't see it happening in America. I think we'll get more adaptations of more standalone works in the vein of Invincible. But getting anything close to mirroring Japan's practice of using faithful animation adaptations to cross promote currently running light novels and comics seems unfeasible. And I wouldn't trust anything out of Kirkman's mouth when it comes to anything in the animation industry lmao

>>153481411
Japan really benefits greatly from being smaller geographically which solves a lot of logistical issues with disseminating comics, but populationwise it is still 124 million people. That high population density is probably the biggest secret to success when it comes to the animation/mango/novel industry.

Marvel and DC stuff should not be in this conversation, they've hit their mainstream recognition ceiling already and if Kirkman's whole point being that animated adaptations getting people into comics would help the industry doing it with Marvel and DC stuff would just cause a lateral improvement at best

OP here
Fucking hell this thread was supposed to be about adapting comics into animation and how the wrong lessons learned from Invincible could be more people applying a live action production mindset to animation.
Kind of like how stilted animated adult comedies are and how animators have IIRC been repeatedly discouraged to actually go wild with the medium they're on because the suits seek to emulate the standard, expected formula the most popular shows of that field have established.
You know Kirkman didn't literally mean "American anime" right?
This wasn't supposed to be East vs West thread #12380238102380193801 just because Kirkman mentioned anime (specifically in the way that manga gets adapted into anime which mind you, Invincible wasn't even the first to even do for comics. It's just the most successful case of an adaptation that was mostly (compared to similar shows "adapting" western comics) faithful to the source material)

That's what writers think normal people are like or would be like in these situations. I hate to give credit to 4kids,but while they overdid it, they were kind of right with how they added a bit of lightheartedness even to dour situations because a lot of times people will still be hopeful or maintain a bit of dark humor in low moments. On one hand they ruin the scene sometimes but on the other hand it almost subconsciously tells you to always keep your chin up when things go south, although I'm sure a lot of people learn the wrong lesson and just act needlessly snarky all the time because that's what they saw on tv. In Invincible it can be a little grating because when the character complains, there's pretty much nowhere for the conversation to go but down ("my life sucks because bla bla bla, you know?" "yeah that does suck." "yeah it sucks.") and when it doesn't, it almost (or just does) feels forced. I see it as a sign of the times. Whether people are bitchier or we are simply more exposed to bitching due to global connectiveness, the takeaway is that people complain and go on about themselves a lot so to make it relatable to the modern viewer, the characters complain more. I have little problem with this in theory because whining can be written to be enjoyable for the viewer but it's pretty dry and plainly presented in the show.

There is not a single person on god's green earth who gives a fuck about who you are or what your problems are. That's what trying to talk to a random stranger is like. You don't even do this with people you're friendly with because that's "trauma dumping" now.

There is also the cost factor; American comics are much more expensive to produce for a few reasons.
First is they insist on being colored.
Secondly, they are much more detailed.

In order to revive the American comic book industry, colorization needs to be nuked, and styles simplified. That way weekly schedule could estabalished.
And once there are enough ongoing weekly magazines, they could be bundled into an equivalent of Weekly Shounen Jump.

Personally, I always en dup dropping ongoing series due to monthly releases.

Of the current season Witch Hat Atelier and Wistoria are really well animated.

LOTGH is my favorite anime and I'm currently rewatching. But even I would say it's dramatization in it is poor for no good reason.
Many scenes are just characters drinking tea, and have narrative weight to make them tense.
But the biggest issue with the show is that most dialogue scenes are not debated; they are lectures, because characters are surrounded by underlings who do not challenge them.
So, much of the show is just Yang giving philosophy lectures to Julian, or Robinski giving his underling a PowerPoint presentation about the master plan.

Bu you’ve provide no numbers. What I can find is that Reze movie has a 4.1 million budget which is less than invicible. Now provide your proof for other shows like Snk and all the “etc” or is CsM the only “high budget” anime that looks bad?
>>
>>153491479
kind of true about the last part but it’s still way more engaging than how most animes and cartoons do talking heads and it’s the best written animated series so i can excuse some shit

With how much people are aware of atleast marvel characters you could nowadays almost completely adapt certain comic arcs without having to change much. If people wonder or couldnt know who a character is just have them give a 3 sentence explanation before moving on.
You dont need origin stories anymore you can just have a guy show up and people accept it.

I think he means direct adaptations of comic stories in animation form in a similar way anime tends to use the manga as the bases for the story and shot composition at times depending on the anime. Some anime just ignore the manga. Kek Anime only exists to promote the Manga and other merchandise. Maybe he wants western animation to be a similar launching pad? Just the issue is most comics from Marvel and DC are goa t cluster fucks of interwoven stories based on title comics that would kill the pace of a western animation pipeline. They just dont hire the right kind of talent anymore. https://youtube.com/watch?v=KESNewqMyEs&pp=ygUhU3lldmVuIHVuaXZlcnNlIHNwaW4gc2NlbmUgcGVuY2ls
Most people in the western animation business now are terrible at shot composition. They only understand how to make story boards and send them off to Korea for the in-betweens(hard part). We still get rare moments liek the video I sent you where an animator actually get hired for a shot and just does it themselves because they are highly skilled and can just pump this kind of shit out fast.

>every single anime is comprised of 10 minutes of the characters talking while being compeltely still and their moving mouth flaps is the only motion. Such highs.
You yourself know that there are directors like Kon, Oshii, Takahata, Dezaki etc that have created so much great stuff that you could never find in western animation. Those are the actual highs. Even when it’s just characters talking you get kino like Lotgh(which I’ve already mentioned) and I can’t find any western animated adult series as good as it. My problem is that all the normies say shit like
>invincible is true adult animation
when invincible has shonenshit tier writing. For a true anime fan that has a watched a great deal of good seinen anime this is laughable. The west can do more than this. There are good western comics with actual adult writing thay could be adapted in a nice way.

Invincible represents horribly egregious bloat that's plagued the industry long before streaming arrived. If some group of smart people ever figure out a process that's way more efficient and uses actually good story source material to launch it, it won't be from those who are already entrenched.
There's a lot of novels (standalone or series) even reaching into middle/high school YA from the 70s-early 2000s where the story material would've btfo most anime, honestly. Japs saw the usefulness of animation as lower cost ways to slap a story onto the television screen for broader audiences and to continually generate some value (if it's good enough), so they won in that.

Absolute Batman could work but like what was pointed earlier
A Marvel/DC adaptation would be a lateral benefit to comics at best
People already know who these characters are
They're so well in-grained in pop culture that you either like them or you don't
If you didn't care about Batman or weren't open to the character to begin with, odds are an Absolute Batman adaptation would change your mind
