Should western cinemas just showcase anime in the theatres at this point?

comics are trash and have been for a very long time. no one wants to follow a character the like and see them either ruined by being passed around by dogshit writer and artists or shelved cause the current editor doesn't like the character. and unlike manga, which follows a coherent (usually) plot and narrative from beginning to end, comics just maintain status quo so there's no real stories to tell anymore.

I've tried so many times to get into demon slayer. But it's so boring that I can't sit through more than 2 episodes before wanting to drop it. Yet I still feel like it deserves a chance 'cause its so massively popular. Surely that means it must be good, right? But it's not good.

>>214421265
well said.
>why is one artist's vision more popular than intellectual property used to exploit the masses and spread propaganda?

>>214420954
>series is entertaining and doesn't actively hate its readers
gee I wonder why

cell phones and the internet have replaced comic books in the US as the "idle activity to do when bored" over the last 40 or so years. However manga is much more entrenched in Japanese culture as one of their "things" so they have healthy sales still.

I'm sorry your mom used the soft spot in your head as an ashtray when you were a baby but just don't make any more posts, ok?

They already do.

hollywood forfeited their soft power when the decided they wanted to pander to woke social liberal types.

>US comics """"industry""""
US comics are a tiny insignificant cabal of incestuous publishers who have no concept of how to grow their readership so it just endlessly dwindles forever.
they'd already be dead if it weren't for their ownership of a few world famous character IPs that they whore out to any other industry that wants em.
manga industry is competitive with tv and movies in japan. it's not even worth comparing.

Manga is selling well in the west too, infamously there's pictures of those comic book stores shutting down and selling all inventory at a discount, all the manga instantly sells but no one even cares to take comic books at fire sale discounts

>woke social liberal types.
You mean the ones their cousins in academia created?
>>
>>214422249
who could have possibly known having a competitive industry of auteurs would produce more popular works than a publisher-dictated factory line???

The manga industry is so cutthroat that only the best stories with the best characters get published. It’s not like the West where all you need is the right diversity check marks and Disney will publish your life story, no matter how boring.

Journalism AND Academia, but yes, they're related. Its weird how they all march lockstep with literal communist propaganda yet consider themselves free thinkers.

Tranime and mangay are nothing more than the orientalized equivalent of goyslop. Like the Jew in goywood, tranime is propaganda designed to indoctrinate young generation into believing that a subspecies of chink like the nip is the most civilized race in the world.

And the content is so repetitive and appeals so strongly to autistic sensibilities that it's like a drug addiction.
Tranime can never be kino.
It's the cancer destroying the West.
Entertainment for niggers and jeets.

Anime is still created under the ‘Rule of Cool’ premise, which is that the highest virtue a work can have is that it is fun and entertaining. Contrast this to western media, which is largely a political/ideological mouthpiece first and entertainment second.

Anime doesn’t ask the question “what if we made a beloved character black to cure racism?”, it asks “what if we made a beloved character?”

Listen man, I’m not saying it’s always executed well, just that on average a work of anime tries to be entertaining before anything else.

What's up with this? Are AoT/Frieren/Onepiece just chopped liver?

My roommates, my coworkers and my friends have all tried to convince me that this is one of the greatest anime’s to ever do it and I have tried watching it twice, second time was just last week and I tell you I can not make it through the first episode. It has to be one of the dumbest, low IQ, stare blankly ahead and don’t think even 1cm deeply about what is happening shows I have ever watched

Rising autism rates.
Autism and anime go hand-in-hand. So much so, that psychologists have studied it.
The characters have no depth and plainly state their emotions. Autistic people have trouble understanding emotions.
