Anime has convinced the world that Japan is cool even though they have never met a Japanese person or gone to Japan.
>>226046644You say that like it’s a bad thing
genuinely what's the appeal of anime? upuntil the 90s at least the drawings were cool but writing was still garbage. and after 90s it's just catastrophic
>>226046803Art is not for everyone.
>>226046803It's fun. Like cartoons for adults
>>226046803In the US, live action sucks and American cartoons are even worse (not even for children anymore, made for fat women). Our choices of entertainment used to be "maybe I'll watch the X-Files, maybe I'll watch Law and Order, maybe I'll watch Rome or Battlestar Galactica or Sopranos".Now our choices are "do I watch Disney capeshit slop series, or do I watch anime?"

>>226046990>pick me! I'm different!No it's Pigmy. And those are quite different.
>>226046948Indie cartoons made in america are still quite good. Animation is kind of just the thing that is used to portray something, it's hard to generalize.
you like Japan because of animeI like Japan because of JAVwe're not the same
>>226046803every modern bong show now is half ngubu and half strong women thats always right
>>226046803Symbolic storytelling. There is still some good anime being made.
>>226046803there's still some good ones every now and then but yeah there was a massive drop off in the early 2000s
