>watch nothing but cartoons with girl protagonists>complain that there are too many shows with girl protagonists
>>155294246Okay wise guy, give me 5 shows with male protagonists that have come out this decade.
Give 100 examples of current cartoons with male protagonists
>>155294246I don't watch them. I just hear about nothing but mundane drama slop with female protagonists. There don't seem to be any interesting new animated series with good male protagonists recently, but if you can think of a few example I'd love to be proven wrong.
>>155294246>>watch nothing but cartoons with girl protagonistsAccording to the Netflix What We Watched report for early 2026 https://about.netflix.com/en/news/what-we-watched-the-first-half-of-2026 the current highest ranking animated show is Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 and it's by a pretty substantial margin, beating out Wednesday season 2. Other hits near it are Avatar The Last Airbender season 1 korra is apparently gone? Did not know that. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and Sonic Prime season 1 before you get excited, there's a HUGE dropoff for the following seasons. It wasn't Korra's old rankings level bad, but it's bad. For obvious reasons I left off toddler shows like Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol, but you get the point, there's no female lead animated show anywhere near the successful male lead hits. Movie wise obviously is a big difference thanks to K-Pop Demon Hunters remaining a hot ticket even now....and weirdly enough? Amazing World of Gumball, season 2, was really successful for some reason, beating out literally every single female lead animated non-toddler show. But only season 2, season 1 is over 100 ranks below it and I guess they don't even have the other seasons. I don't get that. By all means take a look at it, it's right there in the report, but from what I see there's a fuckton of cartoons with girl protagonists and the guy protagonist animated shows are winning soundly.
>>155294246Nah, I don't think you're on the right track here. Weebs watch nothing but shows with a billion girls without issue. I don't even think it's the shows most of the time, but the obnoxious creators running their mouths on twitter. Even a legitimately good show would have an upward battle if the well had already been so foully poisoned.
>op is a faggot and refuses to elaborate>leaves
>>155294246Nobody said /co/mrades were smart, OP.
>>155294256Primal.Uhhhh....
Stuff that's just in your peripheral view can still get annoying. I've never even heard Owl House or Amphibia characters speak and I'm still tired of them.
>>155294540Amphibia it’s the Asian from Zach and Codey, and the Owlhouse it’s a generic girl I can’t think of anything else I heard her from and I don’t know the actress.
>>155294246heheheheheheheheyou said contempt

>>155294256Primal, Invincible, Smiling Friends, OK KO, Scott Pilgrim
>>155294256
>>155294601Is this as fucking unbelievably gay as it looks or is it actually good?
>>155294600>ok Ko>this decade
>>155294652>this decade actually means half a decade
>>155294628Stop looking at the screen
>>1552946522017 - 2019What kind of math you doing, Anon?
>>155294662I already knew that was the next goal post move, which is why I stuck with things from 2020 or later.
>>155294674We're in the 2020s
>>155294597Sure, could always use more recs
>>155294540That's cause /co/mblr only spams threads about garbage for trannies, hence why we have lesbian space princess generals now
>>155294697A decade is ten years, Anon. Ten years ago would be September of 2016. OK KO is very definitely from the last decade.
>he's doing the leftist discourse now
>>155294794Who are you quoting?
To be honest, I just don't really watch many cartoons in general these days.The only ones I've watched this year are Primal and Space King.When I want my animation fix I just watch anime.
>>155294818We really should just merge the two boards.
>>155294829No, we shouldn't.If anything, /co/ should be completely separate from 4chan as a whole since this board barely even qualifies as 4chan these days.
>>155294273>mundane drama slop with female protagonistswow women's lives depicted accuretly? would you prefer girlbosses?
>>155294597>all that slop and smiling friendsbleak
>>155294873Finding shit you liked wasn't the assignment.
I have anti-woke fatigue
>>155294917Why?
>>155294922Because I obviously can't read, and this stupid site requires you to wait, like, 20 minutes to delete a post.
>>155294873Shittaste
>>155294926I forgive you
>>155294818I don't watch anime. I don't like anything. I need people to tell me what to like, but also I can't trust them to not be trolling me. You told me Frieren was good, and I was bored for 133 chapters of sameface and overlong arcs.You told me Mushoku Tensei was good, and it gave me a brain haemmorhage within 4 episodes.
>>155294842I don't give a shit about accuracy, realism or relatability in fictional animated media. That shit is boring. I want cool characters in larger than life scenarios in fantastical worlds doing cool shit, but everything just feels like its trying to be therapy for the creator's faggy problems.
>>155294942Damm, you are a lost cause
>>155294946Stop using buzzwords. Stop being alive. I want to kill myself. Please pay attention to me. TELL ME WHAT THE FLAWLESS ANIME THAT HAS NO CRITICISMS IS!!! I HAVE NO SELF ESTEEM!!!!
>>155294942>I need people to tell me what to likeI've noticed that modern cartoons tend to attract a lot of this particular type of NPC for some reason, it's very strange.
>>155294972YOU KEEP TELLING ME THAT ONLY TRANNIES LIKE OWL HOUSE!!!! WHAT THE FUCK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO TO PLEASE THE NAZI HIVEMIND?!?!?!?!
>>155294980Okay, *that* one is killing yourself. Nazis want everyone who isn't them to be dead. It's why they're such awful people that nobody except other Nazis like them.
>>155294980Why would you want to please the election tourists? They couldn't ever bother to lear this site's culture within 10 years and instead just made everything worse.
>>155294980Just find shit you think looks interesting and watch it.What kind of retarded NPC shit is this?
>>155295035But *I* want everyone who isn't like me to be dead, too!
>>155295088I don't look for stuff. The way my brain works is that I feel cornered into watching stuff through other people making it impossible to avoid, and THEN watch it. And complain the whole while about people bullying me into watching something I can't even be certain they like, because people can and will like stuff just to be contrarian to their enemies.
>>155295118>I don't look for stuff. The way my brain works is that I feel cornered into watching stuff through other people making it impossible to avoid, and THEN watch it.You are absolutely autistic and this is why you don't like anything.This is some kind of actual on-the-spectrum type of shit that makes me think some people walking amongst us genuinely do not have "souls."You could legit be replaced by AI.
>>155295217>Me: "I'm scared of new things">You: "You don't have a soul"What the fuck man.
>>155294597I believe the silent part in this discussion is that OP wants early AT or ATLA style action/adventure shows with male protagonists and male pandering in general
>>155294942>>155294957>>155294980>>155295118uh oh melty
>>155295373I mean, we had Dragon Prince, but then that decided to fucking blow it for no fucking reason.
>>155295035Seethe
>>155295457About what?
>>155295373
>>155295473About reality not being on your side
>>155295504Oh, sweetheart. Someday you'll look around and realize the only people in your life are just as angry and lost as you, and it'll be too late and nobody will care. I can't seethe because I'm just too sad for you.
>>155295481>>155295447There is definitely a desire on this board for "western shonen" (I mean in terms of appeal, not necessarily directly mimicking anime) that the industry refuses to cater to or fucks up when they try
>>155295481Incest show.
>>155295373Apparently he's not alone since the report here >>155294461 says ATLA and adventure anime are beating out all of female lead emotional OR action based shows. It's not even close. People want more of this and when given watch it, a lot.So yeah he's apparently not alone. Weird that, instead, Netflix funded something like She-Ra and Voltron, two shows so unpopular they got removed from the platform and even their own owners don't want them.
>>155295562So what you're saying is /co/ is a bunch of pissbabies who can't even be happy when they're winning?
>>155295562Voltron would've been fine if they didn't keep being retarded.Why are there so many shows that insist on being badly written? Why can't we make bad writing punishable by death so that only the strong survive?
>>155294246>familiarity breeds contemptjoke's on you, I'm autistic. I thrive on enjoying the exact same thing over and over again.
>>155294908Not when it's mainly garbage, low effort and corpo slop. Krapopolis alone was some kinda crypto scam that was unfunny and unwatchable. The only hidden gems are Wake Up, Carlo and The Midnight Gospel. The Midnight Gospel is less of a cartoon and more of an animated podcast/interview/documentary thing and that got a bunch of shit because smooth brains couldn't parce out what the show was. Much like most westoids who think animation and cartoons = children's media.Wake Up, Carlo was an interesting art piece that came out of Brazil that no one saw.Low effort cape slop for the rest too. Then they fucked around with Invincible too much as a show, cut too many corners, and departed way too much from the comics.>>155295373This. Also majority of that list is shit no one saw, or just shit in general. Invincible is the only one that kinda fits the bill and maybe Smiling Friends. >>155295555Because anime already scratches that itch and does a better job than anything the west could try and emulate.
>>155295589I'm also autistic, but eventually it breaks through and I realize the anime Youtuber I like is actually fucking stupid. So I need to keep finding new Youtubers/podcasts to put my faith in.
>>155294932Fuck off, Greg.
>>155295329NTA but he's right. Nobody's forcing you to engage with current thing, you're just repeatedly punching yourself in the dick for no reason at all and then blaming everyone else for it.
>>155295562It truly makes no sense, pic related was the 7th highest grossing film of it's year on a budget of 20 million dollars. 20. Million. For 800 million in returns.>But that's all slave labor!Fine, bump it up to a whole, I dunno, 80 million? That was the new Avatar's budget. Or if you think that's not fancy enough, why not 90 million? That was The Lion King's budget adjusted for inflation. Seriously, The Lion King had a budget of 45 million it's fucking insane how much cheaper 2D is than CGI It still outgrosses blockbusters.And instead they're trying to make Lars of the Stars? The fuck is wrong with everyone?
>>155295581>when they're winning?The two examples are a nearly 20 year old show and anime, and this is /co/, so...Reminder that Korra also did very poorly on netflix before it was removed, with it's first season being no joke one THOUSAND ranks beneath Aang's least popular season. That is neither hyperbole nor exaggeration and you are free to check out the link above and scroll back to the quarter before Korra being removed was announced. Not the one where it was, though, it was only there for half a quarter and that's not fair./co/ ISN'T winning, it's losing to decades old shows and anime and having it's action shows like Voltron geared towards a female audience only to flop.
>>155295619No
>>155295707You still wearing your faggy little fingerless gloves and bitching about toys?
>>155294597>He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (2021)XDthis dude just googled a list and copy pasted it
>>155295581I can't tell if people who still say pissbaby are trolls or actual karens teleported from 2016.
>>155295633So? It feels good to blame everyone else for my own issues. Otherwise I'd just feel worse.
>>155295726Nice seething
>>155295736I think he’s talking about the CGI one>>155295780Grow a pair
>>155295787>No answerI'll take that as a yes, fag boy.
>>155295851You are that
>>155295910A yes?
>>155296538Fag boy
>>155295780Best post in this thread because it actually admits to what's going on.
>>155294246Wouldn't be a problem if they were any good.
>>155296835A lot of them are good for some time, but then they blow it. And blowing it ends up being their legacy.
