Invincible is like the polar opposite of the anime pipeline
>takes way too fucking long for 8 episodes a season
>budget is ridiculously huge
>animation is dogshit anyway
>relies on celeb VA clout instead of seiyuus
>spends most of its money on celebs
>relies on creators with clout with previous high profile projects (would never get made if not for TWD success)
>changes too much about the source material to appease culture warriors
>adapts finished decades old material
I can't imagine an animation pipeline more different to the anime one than Invincible
>>
>>153665437
I don't know if your trying to start a culture war or east vs west thread but its literally just the idea of a direct book to animation pipeline with the original author being able to make tweaks.
Something so foreign to the production side pf the western market that it seems like magic.
>>
>>153665437
>takes way too fucking long for 8 episodes a season
Technically it's like the equivalent of 16 anime episodes because the general runtime is around 48 minutes.
>>
>>153665472
most of that is filler and music segments
>>
>>153665463
I agree with OP’s point about the production time and the decades old material though.
If the point is to promote new Books/Manga, then you need to adapt new ongoing material, and adapt it fast enough to run concurrently.
Idk maybe it will change in the future, but for current authors the propsects don’t look good if they’ll only adapt highly succesful decades-old books.
>>
"We have anime at home" vibes.

>>153665437
> >takes way too fucking long for 8 episodes a season
unc thinks this is still 1998 and we get 52 episode seasons yearly lmao
>>
>>153665437
>takes way too fucking long for 8 episodes a season

Should all comic cartoon only be 13 episodes long and then end because only like 3% of them maybe gets another season years down the line which is the norm? Shit like Naruto, One Piece etc. are not how vast majority of anime operates
>>
>>153665437
>"manga to anime"
>actually means he'll pave way to mining all the old comic books, while the current ones remain shit
talk about finite resource. Not to mention people are fatigued by usual capeshit. Young people don't want captn Underwear-over-spandex to fight Dr Mustache-twirl in between berating you about intersectionality or w/e. It's gay. People would watch a feature length movie about something like Hellboy Vs the Crooked Man, but there's not that many brands of this in American comic and industry hacks would never abandon their own circle for Franco-Belgian IPs.
>>
Discussion of anime is also a lot less intrusive.
Stop fucking making invincible threats you have like 5 holy shit.
>>
>>153665723

Actually, that sounds exactly like anime.
>>
>>153665806
netflix is not anime
>>
>>153665437
Anime is based and made by a country that loves their people and invests in the arts

Kirkman is a woke boomer who seethes about America while writing capeshit. There is nothing anime about this
>>
>>153665437
Right but in order to get there you need alto start at the very simple premise of “direct adaptation of comic book source material with simple tweaks”

is that what you call making it worse

Which anime is spending 2M per episode so a celebrity can say two lines as Glup Shitto in the background solely so they can pad their cast list promo image

Meanwhile Japan has dedicated voice actors with the same pull who can actually do the job right and without ballooning the budget
>>
>>153665437
>>budget is ridiculously huge
You'd think, but Studio SEK were subcontracted to animate this show.
>>
Oh man I sure hope kirkman reimagines all of my favorite comics as $500M per episode barely animated shitshows but fucking simu liu voices Tony Chu or some shit.
>>
>>153665463
>its literally just the idea of a direct book to animation pipeline with the original author being able to make tweaks
So much for that.
>>
>>153665437
well, they're just saying they would produce more action cartoon series that will be somewhat relevant on social media, based on comic books, and animated by asians animators.
and you know, that's like...anime.
>>
>>153666044
So they're still paying celebrities, just paying them less because they're minor celebrities
Retard
>>
>>153666149
I mean they kind of have to if this show is to run for eight seasons. There simply won't be enough content for the final two, Thragg War/Robot running Earth could easily just be a single season.
>>
>>153666172
seiyus don't get paid millions for bit roles
>>
>>153666044
>>153666172
I think Demon Slayer's cast is actually stacked with Japanese celebrities but the industry budgets are very standardized so they aren't given millions of dollars for simply being in the show like what America usually does.
>>
>>153665437
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5GaE1SkeXOM
Can you believe this dumb retarded cuck thinks he deserves an apology for the corner-cutting piece of shit that is this show?
>>
>>153666185
They're also not just voice actors and are typically also models, idols, their celebrity status being an inherent part of the marketing of whatever they feature in and get paid to do live appearances at promotional events for whatever they feature in
>>
>>153666191
no fucking way
what a colossal fucking retard
>>
>>153666197
Yeah, seiyuus are rooted in idol culture in some ways and are entirely different than western celebrity culture. Being a decent person is seen as a requirement over there.
>>
>>153666044
Are you seriously pretending seiyuus in Japan aren’t glorified celebrities?
>>
>>153666210

lols

I don't like it, part of the reason I don't watch anime is because most of them aren't original stories they are based on already existing material.

All of those exist and were created, they didn't get cancelled before they even got off the ground because the Hollywood adapters were insecure about not being able to turn them into gay shit for zoomers.

I think invincible is a good example on how much we are lacking in action based shows, invincible has very mid action compared to anime but is the only animated show that isn't anime with action to watch these days everything else is shows about feelings or crude humour

You're overthinking it, you dumb retard. What he means is he wants America to have the same relationship with comics that Japan has with manga.
Basically what he wants is nonstop shonenslop adaptions(or superslop). Imagine if we got a comic adaptations of Nu52 when it was just starting out. Terrible. It'll also never happen because instead of a "COMICS TO ANIMATION" pipeline, America had a "COMICS TO LIVE ACTION" pipeline.

But invincible is a story about being able to find love regardless of traditional values.

Yes but that literally doesn't make him a non-cuck. It's even more laughable that his wife chose another person to fuck besides him. That's by definition cuckshit. Also answer the damn question, are you the blackanon?

Not even close, they are often drawn in weird ugly ways. They should have kept 1 artists for the comic.

those dark fantasy french ones, the orcs and goblins/dwarves/elves shared universe could be okay but they're kind of an anthology series and honestly I think the actual comics are very middling.
It's hard to think of something that is new and ongoing and isn't dead. I would have said Chew's sequel (I think it was called Chu?) but I think that's dead.

Are you dense? Simmons and Hamil work as voice actors is perennial and ubiquitous, just like the list of names you were disparaging. And yet you don't throw the same insults against their performance.

Radiant Black would be pretty cool but there’s so many crossovers and other comics in that universe it might be hard.

Honoring the tradition for long running animus to have filler, but doing it for the opposite reason. Animu did it because the show was airing concurrently with new mango issues and needed to buy time for the author while doind an insane no breaks schedule. This is just "well we wanted it to be longer"
>>
>>153665437
Voice acting and dialogue can carry a show just look at bojack horsemen
>>
>>153665506
Yeah but that's also where you run into a major hiccup. There's a reason so many anime air in 13-26 episode seasons every few years
Because otherwise the anime outpaces the book and therefore has to keep going.
The toei problem.
The Japanese industry managed to streamline and synchronize this super hard . Like, they have fucking pre-production timed to the manga's release schedule.
>>
>>153668663
Honestly, I'd rather they just make the show shorter and focus on making the animation less shitty.
Putting out 8 hour-long episodes per year isn't as impressive when 2 of those episodes are basically pointless.
>>
>>153665686
Tbh if they made those 13 episodes worthwhile then yes.
>all comic cartoon
Most comic cartoons are episodic with a few arcs and they almost never adapt the comics so I don't get what's even the discussion here.
>>
>>153668815
we barely even got 8
which aren't really animated

Kirkman has literally no other comics to do this with. The best he can do is an Invincible spinoff, but to what end? Invincible wraps literally everything up to the point that the teases at the end seem like in-jokes more than anything.

He REALLY wants to make an animated The Walking Dead adaptation closer in line with the comics but AMC has the rights and not him
Also, the headline is misleading
He's not out there kickstarting some big movement he's just expecting the industry to push for more animated adaptations and even then Skybound has plenty non-Kirkman books to adapt
>>
>>153668994
No one cares about any of those comics, even among comic fans.

Nta but Invincible isn't anything special in terms of writing. It has a few good moments but that's all, it's exactly like shonenshit so yeah.

In an ideal scenario we'd have at minimum 6 animated adaptations that
>Aren't Invincible
>Aren't Marvel/DC
>Aren't licenseshit
>Are influenced by the source material and don't deviate heavily both in story and in artstyle
>Are of different genres
>Are popular enough to maintain regular discussion at minimum and not get cancelled early
>Get released with enough time and workforce to ensure optimal quality (with half of the shows releasing when the others are on hiatus)
>Come out at a healthy pace where when one of the shows ends, another can "take its place"
>Are only made because the creators WANTED an animated adaptation to begin with (if they wanted live action or no adaptation at all, that should be respected)
Bonus
>At least one of them is adapting a currently running comic
>>
>>153669738
these shows do substantially more than 400 minutes a year?
>>
>>153669831
If that was the case why doesnt it have a million threads about it made on its board? Unlike invincible which has 24/7 threads of people talking about it.
>>
>>153665835
>Anime is based and made by a country that loves their people and invests in the arts
Not the case, if that were the case everyone would be doing 1942-1947 Tex Avery and 1941-1946 Bob Clampett to the T, instead all we're getting is Filmation with Bambi eyes because theres no one keeping the country in check.
>>153667615
None of those shows were any good is the thing.
>>153668688
And that is a bad thing.

Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs and Freakazoid.

>>153669852
JJK and Bleach put out 24 episodes (550 minutes) per year compared to Invincible's 16 equivalent.
One Piece puts out 36+ episodes per year.
>>
>>153669832
Uhm >>153667832
>>
>>153669896
I still don't think a cartoon getting out 400 minutes yearly is something worth shitting on. it's acceptable at worst.

Tell that to Japan, also...

>No 3DCG, everything is hand drawn
>No Calarts
>No Spumco like designs
>No fake anime
>No Filmation with Bambi eyes
>No stiff and sterile designs
>No limited animation
>No pose to pose animation
>No UPA like designs
>At least 30 piece orchestra doing the music that has it's own score per each episode.

It had so many that it got banned. It was just that based. The shonen the other guy has mentioned have had way more threads than invincible.
>>
>>153669937
Ehh, it's nothing special compared to what we used to get.
JLU put out 39 episodes in 2 years, and its animation takes a giant steamy shit on Invincible's.

Anime has a dedicated drama genre and plenty of gore in seinen series, or even certain shonen series like Chainsaw Man or Jigokuraku, instead of having the tonal whiplash of a cheesy badly written superhero story with random gore and violence

The Reze movie is better than anything in Invincible on basically every front

No. Invincible is telenovela-tier. There simply isn't anything like the pointless abortion arc in shonenslop.

You're not going to find a single anime that brings to the table what invincible does. Because its simply impossible for japan to make anything similar at all. Japan doesn't have American values so they would never be able to even understand what americans want to see.

I know what I want to see. I want happy endings. Men kicking ass. Getting the girl. You think that japan would even consider writing something like that? No. They wouldnt want something that wasnt just bittersweet and making the audience suffer to sit though every episode. Or else they'd have made an anime like that which they cant. Only americans understand that kinda story where heros win and the bad guys lose.

Problem is America doesn't really have a manga industry. We just have capeshit.
Manga is like a novel series. A single author telling one big continuous story with unique characters, settings, powers, etc.
Capeshit is just a bunch of recycled stories from lots of different authors with questionable continuity.

If you really want to create a manga-to-anime pipeline in the west, make a cartoon series out of Mistborn or something.
Hell, do a graphic novel adaptation first to storyboard it out.

Anon, JJK has had 59 episodes since fall 2020.
Invincible has had the equivalent of 66 episodes since spring 2021.
And this is with JJK's animation studio (MAPPA) working on a bunch of other anime and movies alongside JJK, all of which also look better than Invincible.
>>
>>153674218
The thing is the story of jjk is complete ass compared to invincible. With no likeable characters and little to no stakes. Nobody talks about jjk as anything but animation. Meanwhile invincible has its story constantly discussed.

The harsh truth is that western audiences need that celebrity cred in order to watch anything animated, if not for the celebrity backing Invincible would just be another DMC/Pantheon/Scavengers Reign/DOTA/Dragon Age etc that no one gives a shit about, even animated movies bank on celebrity VAs to promote them as something with social credibility to the point the Mario movies and Arcane had to pull the celeb cast stunt despite being one of the most successful game series of all time

You can't really name the last time an animated series got big in the west on quality or premise alone, even the popular anime in the west comes pre-picked by what is already popular in Japan

Live action doesn't have this problem, The Boys only had Karl Urban to lean on Hollywood-cast-wise and still got big on premise alone, if you swapped them and made The Boys animated and kept its actors as the voice cast, but gave the live action Invincible a literally who cast save for one major actor, the animated Boys would be obscure and the live action Invincible would be popular
>>
>>153674684
>You can't really name the last time an animated series got big in the west on quality or premise alone,

Rick and Morty.
>>
>>153667772
>The fatigue comes from the fact that capeshit doesn’t seem to have any real progression, ending or point
Well neither does One Piece or Naruto or Dragon Ball or Bleach when get down to it, they just keep plodding along with random crap until the mangaka gets bored and quits, and then some understudy makes a shitty sequel to squeeze out more bucks
>>
>>153674669
>Nigga the vast majority of Image, Dark Horse, Boom, etc these days isn't capeshit
And no one cares about any of it.
>Wytches, Saga, SIKTC, Nights, etc already signed deals for animated series'
Saga is 100% never happening, you're retarded if you think otherwise.
Frankly, I doubt any of these will actually happen, at best SIKTC might get a Y: The Last Man level adaptation that's absolute dogshit.

True, that was 13 years ago and it crashed in popularity as soon as it became socially unacceptable cringe after the Szechuan sauce incident, now compare it to anime where every season has half a dozen super popular series on premise/quality alone, and note how it's always Japanese people discovering them, never once has the west picked up on something good but obscure that Japan didn't already make popular

Can you imagine something like Radiant getting a straightforward animated adaptation with normal voice actors and reaching JJK/CSM/KNY levels of popularity in the west? Can you imagine a single late arc from Radiant getting a 2D movie adaptation with no celeb VAs that makes $800M at the box office?
>>
>>153674765

Damn, I'm old. Sorry, I don't follow animation like I used to, so somebody else is going to have to hit you with the new stuff. Invincible may be carrying the adult animation torch right now, so I guess I should put some respect on its name.
>>
>>153674513
This might make sense if the west was actually doing the animation, but it's largely not, the vast majority of the animation is done in South Korea and China and North Korea.
>>
>>153670268
How would it be adapted?

>>153674659
I had no idea those were the same writer, and I would not have guessed from having watched both shows.

>>153675308
TWD's show is abject dogshit compared to the comic. Unironically, two completely different stories. Not even the Invincible shown is as bad in that regard
