Nobody wants to pay for those. Action cartoons have no audience or track record that make them a safe financial bet.

Why would I give you money to make a guaranteed loser, when I could give my money to something that plays to the established adult comedy animation group.

Anime? You think we can get the anime audience? They're already watching anime, stupid! Why would they bother with something that looks like a knock-off!

That's why. Thinking like that.

This seems to be similar to the Masters of the Universe movie released earlier this year. Faithful to the campy character designs and look of the world, but with a lot of awkward comedy in it.

That one's a genuine concern, unless you're specifically aiming for the "too gay for anime, but not autistic enough to enjoy baby cartoons, so watches gay therapy session cartoons instead" audience, but that's a very very small audience.

Vox Machina is more of a fantasy drama. Not exactly in the style of Game of Thrones, as it has far sillier moments, but when it gets serious it does not kill the tone with a quip like an MCU film. The first few episodes don't give the best showcase of the show overall, but it gets quite serious and focused on its worldbuilding rather than sex jokes.

I feel like this is Castlevania's fault.
The thing is, Golden Axe is like 50% aesthetics, 50% the actual game.
There's barely any lore to rape but at the same time I don't think even fans care enough about the lore enough to watch a cartoon based off it.

>>155112240
Golden Axe is one of those properties where any animated adaptation would have to be carried entirely based on atmosphere (what zoomers call "vibes") and animation quality.
Both the atmosphere and the animation quality here look pretty subpar, so I doubt this is going to attract anyone outside of the typical "industry shill" types.

>>155112194
Oh they want the money, they just don't want to, you know, spend any to get it.

See Japan has a "pre-installed userbase" they know the Otaku's will come if you lay out bait for them. Not so in the states... Oh they'll come, this board is proof, but Studio Execs can't seem to wrap their heads around who they're selling to.

I mean as someone who draws, adding some lashes and basic shadow/highlights to eyes takes literally like 30 seconds tops if you know what to do and follow a design.

A Golden Axe animated series feels so outdated. The last Golden Axe game was Beast Rider in 2008. Which didn't even have good reviews. Most people associate Golden Axe with the Genesis games. No one asked for a Golden Axe adults animated parody series where the characters are self-aware that they are in a video-game.

There is like a 10 year age gap between the people who played the original Golden Axe, which is what the show is based off, and the people who played the latter installments like the arcade game. It's like they made a cartoon based off the first Doom game. The people who played the original game are like 50 and anybody who even knows what the series is is at least 40. You're right to blame Castlevania's success but at least that series was popular into the DS.

This would be like dredging up He-Man or Ninja Turtles except for some reason we've already had numerous remakes based on those properties for the same total lack of reason apart from appealing (now) 50 year olds.

The people with fond memories of Golden Axe are in their 40s and up. Why do they feel a 'comedy' which confuses that is just people making snarky comments endlessly written by people with apparently no affection for the game will appeal? Should have either gone full 80s swords and sorcery or made it a straight faced satire.

It's another Disenchantment which was a fantasy parody written by people who know LOTR, Harry Potter, fairy tales and that's about it (compared to Futurama which, at least in the pre-cancellation seasons, was written by scifi fans and it showed)

Eh. 35 to 45 maybe. Might've been released in 1989 but games didn't suddenly disappear overnight like they do these days. And most people will have played the Genesis version rather than the arcade release.

I have an answer for this.

Golden axe is from 1989 and was mostly played by 10-18 year olds at the time, yet this very specifically seems to be the original game. What 40-50 year old wants to see it this way?
Castlevania has had continuous installments and refreshes throughout the years, and the Netflix show reflected that (white hair Alucard, Curse of Darkness characters).
This is literally just the original arcade game(s), right down to specifics like

As an older millennial I remember Golden Axe being thrown at me pretty regularly in various Sega collections.

The games are not comedic, so why is this comedic?
>>
>>155120221
It should be decent. If they use the source material that will elevate it.

>>155120311
because modern audiences and creators are allergic to sincerity

>>155111434
What if they made it look cool, instead of whatever the fuck this is

>>155120335
I'd be willing to let the art style go if it was played more seriously.

Don't know why calling it "Thingies" makes it way worse, you can still call it weird and purple to make fun of it, but calling animal, monster lizard, even just thing.
But thingies just make me roll my eyes, and I'm not sure why.

Would you play Golden Axe 1 ,2 and 3 in a tiny screen with a tiny stick?
>>
>>155111246
Truly evil, life-denying, satanic cartoon. But the one silver lining is that Golden Axe was never good in the first place.
>>
>>155120311
So the writers can laugh at it instead of laughing with it. Its easy to destroy things at face value instead of referencing the experience itself.
>>
Rick and Morty was a net negative on adult animation and the entire human race
>>
>>155121261
Thingies would be fine if the character were a child, they don't know how to use words right. A grown adult saying stuff like that just comes off as forced "quirkiness"
>>

Nothing about this is Faux anime. It's closer to generic adult art style.

At the least she has a feminine figure and shows skin. Its a step up from the featureless anatomy they has been pushed.

Why are they still making cartoons like this? Have they learned nothing?

>the Castlemuhvania route
They haven't had any hints that Ax will be fucked in the ass and the artstyle is at least matching the humor of the show, that's for giving us the silver lining.
>>
Too irony poisoned. When even Critical Role stuff has more sincerity you've fucked up

I think it will be alright. I just hope the rumor I heard about the opening being the characters killing death adder, escaping the arcade machine like in the arcade ending, and then the rest of the series being them doing things in the 1980s isnt real. I mean, Jumanji is already ripping that off.

is this in any way connected to that game Golden Axe Beast Rider?

Things is something a normal person would say, thingies feel very "hello fellow kids"

>>155122672
That sounds even worse than the shit shown in the trailer

All else aside the trailer showed a deadly lack of comedic timing and the writers having a proclivity for infant-speak (big purple thingies!). I immediately clocked it as another pile of trash from McMahan and will not be giving this a single kilobyte of my bandwidth.

Paramount, Hulu, stop fucking hiring this guy. He makes awful shows and hires awful writers.

The only silver lining about this is that it will expose this retard as a fraud in the eyes of the general public. Believe it or not but Star Trek's cattle fans actually thought his slop was the best thing that ever happened to Star Trek.
>>
>>155123369
What the fuck are you talking about? These are the same wannabe edgy douchebags that turned Star Trek into an ultra violent gross-out show.

This is what happens when you keep hiring showrunners and writers because of one successful project a decade ago despite years of garbage. It's the writer's strike scab hires all over again.
>>
>>155114963
I didn't ask about your sexuality; I asked what's wrong with cartoons looking goofy.
>>
>>155123396
I will never understand star trek fans - even nutrek slop eaters - liking a show that so aggressively hated the philosophies of TNG and so aggressively othered the disabled and asexuals. The amount of extreme gore and bigoted jokes was almost as baffling as the applause.
>>
>>155123422
Don't hate the product, hate the fanbase that enabled its existence. Lower Decks is holding up a mirror to Star Trek's fandom in the current year. Average Star Trek fan in 2026 is a smarmy Funko Pop collecting millennial who hasn't said anything sincere in over a decade. They like the idea of being Star Trek fans more than actual Star Trek. I wouldn't be surprised if most Star Trek fans these days consume Star Trek exclusively through Memory Alpha articles.
>>
>>155122672
Considering that they show so much of the battle in the trailers could be a bad sign.
Imagine that everything in the trailer is from episode one

You can still have Karens, Beckies, and Anns bitching about sex in toons. That's why gals in adult U.S. animation mostly look like baboon abortions sadly

This isn't a puritan show or anything even approaching such

No. I just hate that ladies in most modern U.S. adult comedy animation look like a bonobo's prolapsed vagina

Damn, the bar is lowwwww.

They got the panther guy from 3 in the first episode, there's really no excuse.

>>155121261
Because it signifies indifference. It's basically almost the writer breaking the 4th wall and telling the viewer: "Look, I hate this shit IP but daddy gotta pay bills, this crap is so beneath me, I don't even know what these purple mutant thingies are nor do I care enough to invent a name for them so I will just call them thingies because I'm too cool to be seriously writing on this crap".

It looks like an attempt to use the Rick and Morty-based animation style and pipeline to make an 80's action fantasy aesthetic.
Because that's what it is.

I was talking to my friend the other day who has actually animated on a couple projects and we got to talking about how the styles these days are chosen entirely for efficiency in production over any actual expressive function.

The next indie cartoon might be better served being like a meaner version of Shirobako where it's about the smug manbuns and hamplanets who end up making spiteful adaptations like this

Why is Golden Axe getting a cartoon now? Haven't this IP been inactive for decades?

I thought you guys liked Bugman coded stuff?

>>155111246
>dude it's like le game! you're not supposed to take it seriously lolxd
Who the fuck was patient zero of unneeded, retarded meta-ironic humor? Almost every single modern animated series has it, even the ones that are supposed to be more or less serious. Golden Axe games weren't even comical in nature, they were more of a Conan tribute if anything.
>>
>>155123933

It sure looks like it, when compared to cartoons from 10 to 20 years ago.

This is the old ass webcomics of people playing videogames and tabletop by worse writers.
They trailer already shows it's more about D&D in a videogame jokes than sword and sorcery jokes.
>>

Looks like shit, sounds like shit.

It's Golden Axe. The few people who care about this are on their high-30's. We're old. We're decrepit, and we're depressed and rotting alive. Wedon't want le querky adventure squad starring a ugly girlboss and her retarded sidekick.

It's about as shitty as I expected it to be.

>>155125931
Guardians of the Galaxy is where I'd say. MCU was just capeshit of varying genres but past that everything became quipping sitcom characters with super powers and wacky references
