Why are so many of these modern ''adult'' web cartoons just kid shows with slight swearing? There's worst and more mature stuff in Batman Beyond and TMNT 2003, if anything it's kinda annoying they aren't just made regular kid shows so you don't get annoying IT'S NOT FOR KIDS shit and the forced ''adult'' moments.
Except there are already a few indie shows that don't emphasize on comedy. The real question is why so many people expect one channel that's clearly comfortable with the demographic they have to change?
>>153712703TADC deals with existentialism and is reasonably mature about it. Just because it's colorful doesn't mean it's not for adults, on the basis of kids really shouldn't find much amusement in absurdist introspection.The rest are just usual teen media. I don't even think Gameoverse is actually made to be "adult".
>deals with existentialism and is reasonably mature about itYeah so did Batman nearly 35 years ago.
Target audiences:>Meta Runner: SMG4 fans who liked the modern arcs and storytelling>Sunset Paradise: Same as above>Murder Drones: Teenage hot topic girls, and guys who are into Warhammer 40K>TADC: Gooseworx>Gaslight District:>Knights of Guinevere: Millenial and zoomer women>Gameoverse: Just your average guys, who like video games and catgirl titties
These are not really adult shows but shows for general audience (anyone can enjoy) with some swearing. I think you guys are too attached with these "adult cartoon" "kids cartoon" categories, if the show is good its good mate it doesnt really matter who its target demographicBut if you REALLY pin point some kinda of age demographic for the majority of these, its as the anon said, teen for most, young adult for TADC.
>>153712841>>Gaslight District:you are far too wise to be posting here anon
>>153712703These aren’t adult shows. Do you think office workers and truck drivers are watching this shit? Real adults watch live action.
Who cares if kid shows have characters saying FUCK and SHIT in them? That's all the little troglodytes are ever going to do in life anyway.
>>153712703Because a lot of animators wanted to make kid shows but that industry is dead.
>>153712841I think Gaslight District was their best show.
>>153712827Cartoonfags don't watch capeshit or action shows to know cartoons have been doing mature shit for years, they only watch the stuff more aimed at kids with artstyles and dialogue directly like Teen Titans and Avatar, it's how you get retards like Mr.Enter thinking they're first cartoons with storylines even though shit like Transformers in the 80's. I watched the plot to this forgotten 90's show from Canada and it was more mature than most the shit we have now, the direction and dialogue is more childish even when subjects are more maybe mature for these newer cartoons, it's all about how it's handled.Here's the show btw, our standards are so low what was seen as a filler show looks more quality than what kids watch now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpwI9nz8c5kLot of post-80's action shows were written and directed like adult shows on prime time but with a kid rating but around time Jackie Chan and X-Men Evolution came out the writing became little bit more aimed at something kid could be into with more kid style visuals which those shows are good but in future it lead to shit that was aimed at adults but still had kid style writing and direction.
>>153712875This is the actual answer. You can see this in the indie videogame scene too.
Your best bet for adult-only animation to come back in a not family guy way is if the invincible guys plan of making a pipeline of comic books > animation like they have of manga to anime works out.Glitch is really not aiming for that specific audience.
>>153712884Same, my man
>>153712898There would have to be a few more invincible approach products before other producers might pick up on the pattern. Like an animated adaptation of Hellboy and an animated Sin City or something.
Most stuff be better if it was aimed at kids, hell Invincible would be better if it was aimed at kids, all this shit tries to hard, I've yet seen an modern adult cartoon like pull a Maxx.
>>153712827so because an old cartoon did it it should never be attempted again? what are you even complaining about?
>>153712939Anon people do indie to be unrestricted by the fcc Batman tas was dark but you have to remember it came out in the 90's when batman by that time was way darkerBruce Timm went over the stuff they weren't allowed to do on tv in one image and in his book on the series
>>153712951No but a children's cartoon did it and was more mature about than something aimed ''at adults''.
>>153712852>These are not really adult shows but shows for general audienceThis. Animation has been handicapped for the longest time by the perception it's "for kids" unless it includes gratuitous sex, violence or swearing and then it's "for adults". There's space inbetween which no-one ever questions when it's live action. There are plenty of live action shows without that kind of "adult" content but nobody claims they're "for kids" because of that.
>>153712852This
>>153712966Yeah and restrictions make better shows for some, look how shit Bruce Timm is uncensored.
>>153712841>Knights of Guinevere: Millenial and zoomer womenNeither in my case, I like the story, the style and Frankie
>>153712980Once again missing the point when it is made very obvious what the problem isEuro hours really brings out the densest mother fuckers
>>153712971Was it "more mature" or are you just trying to posture?
>>153712703because besides millenials in general being an infantalized generation, animation in general was always seen as "for kids except for shit like Family Guy"So Ralph Bakshi, Aeon Flux, Heavy Metal, Persepolis, Fantastic Planet, Soviet cartoons, fucking Primal etc just doesnt fucking exist for most people Similarly, people think comic books are just Marvel and DC, so Asterix, Tintin, Heavy Metal/Metal Hurlant, 2000AD, Sin City, Cerebus, Hellboy, Corto Maltese, Moebius, Druillet, etc also doesnt exist So everything now is either diet anime or faux kid shit
>>153712703Because the 90s and 00s saw lots of really well done kid's cartoons that adults enjoyed, culminating in the MLP fandom, proving that all the "lines" really meant was that kid's shows were shittily done
>>153712916MTV and other TV channels tried for sometime in the early 2000s but people didnt watch it or it just wasnt profitable.I think shit like a The Maxx animated series would have a way bigger audience nowadays tho.
>>153712992Well it had the character deal with his problems in a single ep and he wasn't being a bitch about it, I'm watching a cartoon not therapy.
>>153713000I think Spawn tries a bit too hard but it's still feels more natural than lot of this shit, like Invincible feels way more force even more so when you see the comic was originally like PG-13 till second artist took over.
>>153712992He's posturingHe's forgetting the darker episodes were in a sea of episodes like batman in my basement
>>153713019>were in a sea of episodes like batman in my basementBatman TAS wasn't ashamed of still being a kid show like these shows are.
>>153713017>I think Spawn tries a bit too hard Thats part of the fun :)>like Invincible feels way more force even more so when you see the comic was originally like PG-13 till second artist took over.Thats just kirkman for you, i think they done a decent job adapting the comic to the animated show from what ive seen the animation does look cheap as fuck at times tho, i guess they had to copy that part of modern action anime too lol
>>153712703>Old cartoons directed and written for adults but aimed at kids>New cartoons aimed at adults but directed and written for kids
>>153713006Is "shut up and do it" REALLY more mature than taking a moment to analyze and understand your own feelings? Or do you just prefer it?
>>153712703>>153712995Adding more to this, you can say Tezuka and Bakshi could tell mature stories with wacky/cutesy characters but they weren't 30yr Millenials obsessed with "tropes" and low literature, are they?Meanwhile, videogames have an opposite problem where their idea of "maturity" is copying movies and realism so much, they come boringIf they were like cartoons, Nintendo would release a game where Mario has guns and says "fuck" like a Dorkly parody played straightI also have a theory that, after the end of the cringe culture era, people online decided to overcompensate and claim they're all for "sincerity"So they redefine sincerity as anything that might appeal to people with autism: Faux anime, furries, cute characters, etcWhich is why so many indiegames and webshows have those elements that do well with fandom cultureThis also means someone insincere will take advantage of these visual elements and make something that is still ironic and too self aware, but people will call it "sincere" regardlessSame with people insisting that "old graphics = SOVL", so indie devs make intentionally ugly games and call it "soulful"Also people should stop comparing TADC (A fandom show) to I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream (An actual dark mature story), given Harlan Ellison was a pissed off writer that watched real events to inspire his works while Gooseworx acts like they're babysitting their fandom and occasionally having panic attacks on Twitter
>>153712841Create a SWOT diagram for each series and you will see the "target audience" and the target audience.
>>153712868I concur. That line is too clever. Somehow that anon does not know that there's an upper IQ limit to posting, but not one to lurking. He's going to get very quickly shunned for his wits and logic.
>>153712869Obvious ragebait.
>>153712703Its made by retards, for retards (and kids) The average person is not smart at all and gets easily lured by bright flashy colors and autistic "melodrama " for scrimblo bimblo characters
>>153712794Because they're their the only ones who are making consistent and/or popular content. No other indie show creator has reached such a large audience as glitch currently, the only other are Vizipop (dogshit), possibly Laksidaisy, and the now basically dead rooster teeth who could have atleast matched them in revenue.
/co/ doesn't like to hear this, but it's because the cartoon audience wants this kind of stuff.The primary audience is children, slightly stunted teenagers, and extremely stunted adults, many of whom are third worlders nowadays.
>>153712703Not just that but these are all GIRLS cartoons (in fact Glitch only does girls cartoons since it's entire crew is female since Luck and Kevin (who's girl friend at the time founded Glitch) got fired for being guys and even sued for it, causing SMG4 (their only boys cartoon) to end (on top of legal pressure from Nintendo)), theres nothing for guys other then gooning which they're going to do everything in their power to tell everyone with a Y chromosome to fuck off.>>153712841>Knights of Guinevere:No, just zoomer women, Millenial women refuse to touch anything made after 1967, just like their male counter parts.>Gameoverse:Girls cartoon, it's a male proof as it can get.>>153712985You're thinking of Foster's which is CN, Guinevere lacks any of that.Also Frankie is based on Craig McCracken's wife.
>>153713691Famicom, get a fucking job.You're like 40.
>>153713695>I don't know what I'm talking about.
>>153713511
>>153713582
>>153713715No
>>153713738Yes.
>>153712703I don't know why you guys get so hung up over "Adult" web cartoons. Have you see the shit they put in live action? It's mostly garbage. You seriously want the web scene to chase themselves into a pit the same way the video game scene did trying to get people to take them seriously by becoming "playable" movies?The web scene is fine for the most part, only issue is GLITCH and Spindlehorse raising peoples expectations because they have something most indie creators don't have, money
I think a lot of creators just want to make shows with like, light adult themes.A big problem in animation for a long time was that you could only really do 100% squeaky clean shows for kids that had to deal with standards and practices, or some super raunchy adult comedy with sex, drugs, swearing, and gore.With indie, they don't have to do either of those, they can be somewhere in the middle.
>>153713466Ragebait or not, it's true, most adults don't watch cartoons.There's a reason adult shows don't usually look this good, they have to look like knock-offs or South Park or Family Guy so that they're not confused for kid shows.Part of the reason Glitch shows are popular with kids, despite not really being "kid shows" is because they use generally cartoony styles that you would see in shows that are actually for kids.
>>153712841>Just your average guysOkay yeah shut up faggot, that shit was peak Reddit.
Out-of-touch 4channers be like, if it's not Berserk then it's for kids.
>>153713836Actually, things for adults can also be like thishttps://youtu.be/7wY2OmuUdlI
>>153713790Yes they do watch cartoons, it's just that they don't watch cartoons made after 1967 unless they're Japanese (mainly 80s and 90s Telecom (TMS) with 2000's Hamtaro and 2002's Mirumo De Pon place in there for good measure) or the first 2 seasons of Ren and Stimpy and said episodes were ditched off to Carbuncle.
>>153713857Oops, sorry, wrong video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsQrKZcYtqg
>>153713867You might be describing yourself here
>>153713909No, thats what normies do.
>>153713875I get what you're trying to say here, adults watch things from their childhoods, but this is still very much a cartoon with kids as the main demographic, something like Family Guy is actually made with adults in mind.
>>153713925What I brough up is family programing, shows aimed at people ages 5 to 125.
>>153713930>family programingThat's just cause families can watch it together, but it's fucking Tiny Toons Adventures anon, it's for kids.Families can watch Peppa Pig or Bluey or Flapjack or Pokemon or Chowder or whatever, those shows are still for kids.
>>153713867We're talking about people watching new things, not reminiscing about old cartoons they used to watch.Generally, most adults genuinely do not give a crap about any new cartoons, if they do, it's because they have kids, not because that's something they themselves would want to see.Most people think that animation is for kids, because most of it is, and when it isn't, it's something like Family Guy or South Park, where they actually do and say things that isn't appropriate for kids or that they wouldn't get.And even then, kids will still watch shows not made for them, because that's what kids do.
>>153713940Tiny Toons was meant for adults, it's only on a kids block because thats all what was available, if The Simpsons never went past the Tracey Ullman shorts Tiny Toons would took it spot in history and Tiny Toons would've been TMS' ultra long runner instead of Anpanman.
LGR is shitGame Sack is for retardsTiny Toons is awfulAnimaniacs was never goodTMS was always trash
>>153713949Normies avoid the new stuff, even the kids, everyone just watches YouTube now of days, and what they watch on YouTube is scripted, informative and live action, namely Game Sack, LGR and The 8-Bit Guy as those are the big 3 channels on YouTube.
>>153713972
>>153713964Tiny Toons was made with adults in mind, but anon, be fucking real, it's a show for kids, there's no argument there.They had a fucking Anti-beer PSA episode, it was for kids.
>>153713989It was forced to be on a kids block, if it was meant for prime time but The Simpsons took that spot.
>>153712703Because anime like JJK and Frieren stole the modern adult audience
>>153714013Sazae-San and Chibi Maruko-Chan, not JJK and Frieren as normies see those shows as "Only for geeks and nerds".In fact you're lucky if you can find someone who is willing to touch Crayon Shin-Chan because some people still want Family Guy style brashness in their shows and Crayon Shin-Chan is the only anime that is still getting new episodes that has that type of brashness.
>FamicomHe doesn't watch the type of shows OP talking about.
>>153714087Unrelated.
>>153714090OP talking about more serious action cartoons, you don't watch that shit, you watch children's anime which yeah action cartoons are for kids but you watch basically Japanese version of Nick Jr shit, completely unrelated to anything here but keep being schizo, it's funny.
>>153714097What I brought up isn't Nick Jr shit, those shows are for adults but are clean enough so their kids can watch it (Crayon Shin-Chan excluded).What OP was talking about is Glitch Pro's girls cartoons and why guys are not getting anything at all, guys want funny animal comedies, not action cancer.In short; Guys want The Day The Earth Blew Up and they want it to be put to shame.TL;DR: Put The Day The Earth Blew Up to shame or GTFO of the industry.
>>153712703I'm going to ignore all your bad assumptions and simply answer "why is a lot of adult entertainment made by millennials just a less-safe version of kids entertainment"The answer is that our parents' hallmarks of adulthood (strong career, marriage, children) have been denied to a vast swath if not a majority of millennials on top of said millennials living through an absolute barrage of "once in a lifetime" disasters that aren't stopping any time soon.As a result millennials still feel and act like early 20-somethings despite approaching 40 and seek comfort in hobbies and aesthetics of their youth, things they also never stopped being exposed to thanks to the internet.
>>153714121Insane ramblings.
>>153714121>Guys want awful looney tunes rehashes!No that's just guy, the resident schizophrenic Young men like a wide variety of media and aren't a monolith in terms of viewership
>>153714140Zoomers, millennials were making Looney Tunes Cartoons, Ruddish Micky and season 9B and onwards of SpongeBob.
>>153714147I want more cartoons like Men In Black or The Maxx, why aren't there millennials inspired by dark heavy shadows late 90's shows?
>>153714146No, that is the god's honest truth.>>153714147That is the case, and while Looney Tunes Cartoons isn't the best the Looney Tunes have to offer it's proof that funny animal comedies is what men of all ages want. STRICTLY!Same goes for women of all ages.
>>153714159No, you don't. Trust me on this.
>>153714156Don't respond to me, guy, I'll read your substack if I want a laugh>>15371415990's x-treme is only appealing when people feel society is overly safe and unstimulating. It's a result of detachment from the actual consequences of violence and poverty and antagonistic leadership We've been in a constant state of emergency since 9/11.
>>153714176Yeah, it likely backfire and they take the worst parts, it's crazy though with how popular shit like Cybersix and all those type of shows are, we don't get new stuff like it.
>>153712703https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mSX_-UzE6E
>>153714194TMS would've been much better off doing a 6th season of Animaniacs instead of doing Cybersix.
>>153714209Shit yourself.
>>153712703I think its just legal/TOS technicality. There aren't censure boards for youtube videos the same way there is for TV, but there's also a lot of concern about what kind of content is being marketed to kids.Obviously they know that a huge chunk of the people who watch and (get their parents to) buy the merch are kids, but by saying the shows aren't for kids they can avoid drama.
>>153712703I’m completely ignoring the text in the OP because I just realized that none of the characters in that image are capable of dying in a conventional way and that’s a weird pattern to notice about this studio.
>>153714241Just like a kid show kek, we can kill them but they have to die in a building blowing up or falling or whatever.
>>153714241They only make girls cartoons anyway, it's best just to ignore them and move on with your life.
>>153714241Wait no scratch that. Just remembered Mel is the only character in her show that is not a zombie.
>>153714257You watch nothing but girl anime.
>>153714147>Young men like a wide variety of mediaLikewise. At first, I used to not like all the action shows CN were putting out at the time as I had a slapstick comedy preference, but now I'd do anything for those shows to be back now that we're left with preschooler shit.
>>153714251wow its almost like these cartoon characters are cartoon characters
>>153714263Those shows are uni-sex.
>>153714251They’re really more like looney tunes characters who will explicitly not die from that sort of thing. Only with a grim dark post modern meta commentary about how “isn’t that fucked up if you think about it?”
>>153714179Early 2000s era media was generally edgier than the 90s stuff.
>>153714241Uzi can die in conventional ways but she’s not in the OP image.
>>153714275Girl shows and not even the ones with stuff boys like, you're a fag.
>>153714282Murder Drones is the one glitch show I haven’t watched.
>>153714291They're uni-sex shows, boys love Tiny Toon Adventures and Animaniacs.
>>153714291I hate to be that guy, but I was one of those people back in the early 10s who was put off by horse show for that exact reason LMAO.
>>153713691SMG4 ebded because it was very obviously a lawsuit waiting to happen
>>153714306Not sure why they couldn't go the SML route and make slight redesigns, they seem to be doing well for themselves. (Even if they're mostly redoing old episodes with the new puppets.)
>>153714306Nintendo did file a C&D to Glitch.
>>153714297Hamtaro for girls, faggot.>>153714303Shit is fucking gay, there's no appeal for boys, the fact that it became a thing just shows how fucked we are as a society.
>>153712703They aren't. You're only looking at the aesthetics and don't know anything else about them.
>>153714312Everyone hated the SML reskin and everyone avoided it as a result, SMG4 was killed off because it was a boys cartoon and Glitch only makes girls cartoons (on top of Nintendo sending them a C&D),
>>153714315I wanna say>muh faustbut even that seems like a stretch when it's supposedly got /b/ origins.
>>153714315Hamtaro is a uni-sex IP.
>>153714325>Glitch only makes girls cartoonsThat's not true, because Kit caters exclusively to horny males. Even if the actual substance isn't all that great.
>>153714328Joke that became unironically. >>153714331Uni-gay.
>>153712703I’ve been calling this sort of thing the “man child genre.” It’s very clearly targeted at adults who like children’s cartoons. So of course they’re gonna highly resemble children’s cartoons, and there will be some overlap where kids will end up watching them too. Kinda reminds me of the young adult genre in writing. Which are books targeted at children but they refuse to fully admit they’re made for kids because some mature content that kids find appealing will sneak in and potentially piss off parents. If the parents ever sat down and read the books.
>>153714325A serial rapist did a voice in Bosko cartoon and that's why they had to get rid of not because of black face, they actually didn't care and where going to double down in the reboot for the 1992 VHS special that was cancelled.
>>153714257But I like girl cartoons. That’s why I spend so much time on /co/.
>>153714278That's wrong but even if it weren't it would be irrelevant
>>153714347>Bosko cartoon>1992 VHS specialThe fuck does any of that got to do with a puppet show with a retard that asks people if they're "fucking high?"
>>153714203>Peak>What we got now in OP picOur standards are just dogshit these days now huh?
>>153712841>murder drones>guys who are into warhammer 40kI'll need prove, because all I am seeing is shippers
>>153714359You'll find them in the Drone threads.
>>153714335Not the case, men want male characters because if they want a woman they will go find a real woman.>>153714347That never happened.>>153714348Thats because you're a woman, you are in Glitch's current targeted market.
>>153712703where are the boys?
>>153714353The Gex cancelled movie from 1999 was going to have Jim Carrey but he refused to do it so they shot a scene with Robin Williams instead.

>>153714375?????????
>>153714374Studio is ran entirely by women, there are no men as even Luke and Kevin got fired for being men.
>>153714381John K went to Japan and got inspired by TMS animation on Turbo-Kun-Kun-Kun Man which is why Ren and Stimpy looks the way it does.
>>153714375>>153714390That never happened.
>>153713466>ragebaitdude just say "bait"no need for pointlessly longer words from nuspeak
>>153714390LMAO not even close, Fil-Cartoons were a literal sweatshop studio that couldn't color Carbunkle's art correctly.
>>153714396>>153714400I have proof, don't question TMS influence on animation!
Because the show runners for thise series are hacks who cant write without using swear words in dialog so despite how tame the show is otherwise it gets a more mature rating simply by virtue of containing "strong language"
>>153714415This is AI, not real.
>>153714415>Carbunkle's first job, on the interstitial Stimpy's Breakfast Tips, was completely ravaged by Fil-Cartoons in ink-and-paint. Bad exposure and painting ran rampant and several pieces of animation were dropped entirely. The Filipino studio, in what Jaques termed "a retarded move," added animation when they were not supposed to. Originally, the shot of the Muddy Mudskipper cereal bowl caddy was a still painting by Bill Wray. Fil-Cartoons assumed Carbunkle had made a mistake and proceeded to animate Stimpy's hand (as well as the inanimate Muddy's eyes) coming in to place the caddy.Chapter 3, pgs. 64-65.
>>153714430It's real, very famous Japanese show by TMS from the 70's.
>>153714437No, it isn't.
>>153714435
>153714454>em-dash abuseYou clearly generated this via an LLM, that's not even worth a (you). Notice Sick Little Monkies uses em-dashes sparingly?
Famicom you should draw more busty girls, we can jack off to instead replying to stuff here.
>>153714454This is AI, this isn't real.
>>153714484Sadly he's going to squander what little talent he has left on LLMs. Even though his art looks autistic as fuck, he at least makes art that resembles the character they're supposed to be.
>>153714517What a LLM?And that art isn't autistic.
>>153713790Make the artstyle anime or invincible-like. Problem Solved.Joking aside, if that's true it's probably because in the west cartoons have a bias towards being catered to kids or a general audience which makes the medium very restrictive while in the east animation is more diverse. Live action is more diverse than cartoons so as a result most adults watch live action since they'll likely find something that caters to their tastes.
>FamiDUMB criticises me "using AI" in a Kids Choice Awards thread he raid over a year ago.>FamiDUMB now uses AI for some "real" Japanese cartoon.So.............. Can we call Famicom a Jeet now?

>>153714562It's one of those weird shows everyone watched, it's obviously made for girls but everyone really liked the hamsters.

>>153714594That is a AI rendered image, not real.

>>153714609He had live action movie too, you're just a fake TMS fan.
>>153714573Okay. It was a childrens cartoon with a majority girl to adult female audience.
Kek thread created a new /co/ creation, now we need a real artist on it.
>>153712995>>153713380And another one: most of these shows have bad animation because "the writing is more important" even though the writing is still shitThe main thing carrying these shows is "fandom culture" so people attach to these characters and make up shit about them
>>153714623That never existed.>>153714628Not the case.
>>153714651Yeah, a real artist that can pick up a pencil. Something not from Jeeticom.
>>153714658Draw more tits.
>>153714681Famicom is not a jeet.
>>153712703I go with what Strong Bad says about it: "Indie" just means "independent of anything good".
>>153712703>Why are so many of these modern ''adult'' web cartoons just kid shows with slight swearing?What kid's show is even remotely similar to any of these?
>>153712703>Why are so many of these modern ''adult'' web cartoons just kid shows with slight swearing?Because part od the creative team is fat girls, both straight and lesbian, who grew up watching disney and nick shows and they thought they were edgy cool for cussing as soon as they went to college.Thats ir. Sheltered fat women
>>153714159>late 90's showsJust say 90s, and its cause they're consumed with a bunch of other media influences from that time, so they end up creating things that try to emulate the feeling of a safe nintendo game or kids anime.
>>153714359Murder Drones features an eldritch void god trying to eat the universe and a significant portion of the fanbase worships it (both ironically and unironcally) The story also features said eldritch horror genociding planets with its hordes of vampire robot slaves and eating the planets. There's a very active schizo on /co/ that bitches in MD threads about people making fanfiction or discussing possible scenarios about how the Absolute Solver fucked humanity and ate all their planets and he regularly goes on autistic rants comparing people to Warhammer 40k.
>>153714579Even though I'm not finished yet, your art would look 50x more dynamic if you put in the legwork.
>>153714374Murder Drones has two protagonists, a boy and a girl. And they have hot messy size-difference robot sex at the end.
>>153713774I think a lot of creators just want to make something without worrying about appealing to an intended audience.
>>153712703I dont see how Digital Circus, and allegory for fighting against Depression and Suicide (to find a way out) of "a stagnant life" is a kids show at all
>>153714013>Because anime like JJK and Frieren stole the modern adult audienceA fucking Aura Farm Show and a LOTR 2.0 show did not steal the Modern adult audience stop making this shit up.
>>153712703I should have added this songhttps://youtu.be/xV_yBwQU8LQevery character is dealing with depression, BPD, body dysmorphia, or maladaptive copingNone of the characters are role models for kids and that is the point
>>153712703I get this is a glitch bitch thread, but Fionna & Cake also fall under this criticism.
>>153716239If I knew how to do vector line art I would use it.
>>153718194It's EZ, the "edit" tool gives you a list of hotkeys to use at your disposal. A lot of these I discovered by accident, but you'll get the hang of it.
>>153718259I keep that in mind.
>>153712995Shame really, cause there was a Corto Maltese animated movie and it was very enjoyable.
