Should western cinemas just showcase anime in the theatres at this point?
Since the Obama years effeminate males became socially accepted in the west
>>214420954This image is about comics and tranime does mediocre at best in theatres in the US.

>>214420954comics 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.
>>214421265well 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 readersgee 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.
>>214420954>posts image talking about a manga outselling comics>"why anime more popular than Hollywood hurrr"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?
>>214420954>Should western cinemas just showcase anime in the theatres at this point?They already do.
>>214420954hollywood forfeited their soft power when the decided they wanted to pander to woke social liberal types.
>>214420954>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.
>>214421089*the idea of. Go be a fag around a bunch of women and see if that gets you laid.
>>214421811Manga 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
>>214422064>woke social liberal types.You mean the ones their cousins in academia created?
>>214422249who could have possibly known having a competitive industry of auteurs would produce more popular works than a publisher-dictated factory line???
>>214421290Demon Slayer is fucking ass bro.>BAD GUY GETS DECAPITATED>*flashback>ACKSUALLYYY I-I NOT LE BAD!!! I-ITS JUST PEOPLE MADE ME DO IT!!!>OK BAD GUY THAT KILLED HUNDREDS I LE FORGIVE YOU...fucking garbage
>>214422153The 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.
>>214422371Journalism AND Academia, but yes, they're related. Its weird how they all march lockstep with literal communist propaganda yet consider themselves free thinkers.
>>214420954Japanese manga>Hero got a goal>He live adventure>Get stronger>Get girls>Get friends>Become cool>The story have a beggining and a end>You can read it from chapter 1 to the end without having to find a read orderComic>The story must last for ever>Can't kill anyone>author change every few months>Must read other comics you don't care about to follow the story>End up on a clifhanger due to a reboot in the all franchise>Stories about being gay tolerant blm and other shit

>>214420954Go back to /a/
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?”
>>214423360> Rule of Cool
>>214423473Listen 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.
>artical about anime being popular>semen gayerWhat's up with this? Are AoT/Frieren/Onepiece just chopped liver?
>>214422991This is the correct answer. >The story must last for ever>Can't kill anyone>author change every few months>Must read other comics you don't care about to follow the story>End up on a clifhanger due to a reboot in the all franchise>Stories about being gay tolerant blm and other shit
>>214420954My 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
>>214420954Rising 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.
>>214420954>Should western cinemas just showcase anime in the theatres at this point?They already do?
>western comicsI hate men I hate straight people let's get some hot dogs with Sriracha and peaches my lesbian trans sister this is supposed to be a superhero comic for 14 year olds >manga I must kill all the demons now here's a woman with big boobs
>>214422426that's not accurate (shoving your rightwing culture war into everything does that)the west is as cutthroat if not moreso because of how small the industry is but that cutthroatness is in a system of impressing/cozying up to the tiny group of publishers.manga is competing in the domain of readership
>>214420954because marvel and dc only employ the wokest jews for some reason
>>214420954That pic is about comics. Anime isn't outselling Hollywood just yet.As for why American comics are dying, they went even harder into wokism than Hollywood did, and they still refuse to back down. Every once in a while I check to see if Superman's son and the golden age Green Lantern are still gay. As long as they are I'm not reading anything they put out.
>>214420954Manga outselling comic books in the U. S. is no surprise, American comic book culture is dead, it's all about capeshit in film or streaming.
>>214421235this is taken out of context, its a joke.
>>214420954>Why is anime more popular than Hollywood?It's not. Even the highest grossing anime films do poorly compared to an average Hollywood film, box office wise.
who cares, that stupid kids book about a giant red dog better sales than marvel DC comics. Comics are for children or manchildren. Dead genre.
>>214423607AoT turned into some boring political story halfway inFrieren is just boring with boring characters and designsOne piss has lost the plot and turned to shit and Oda can't draw for shit anymoreDemon Slayer is one of the rarer animes that keep a consistent story and clear goal instead of the ironically popular subverting expectations plot twist heavy stories we get from other anime
>>214426999Is the DS protagonist an annoying horny dork for japanese nerds to self insert as or is he cool/interesting? Genuinely asking, can't stand most manga protagonists.
>>214423360Any anime that has Western funded ties gets filled with propaganda as well, look at the new Watanabe slop
>>214420954Because manga does new things. Explores new ground. Tells stories you don't know the ending to before they start. And has a single long term vision from a singular author.Capeshit is predictable, repetitive, and lacks consistent continuity.Put simply, manga is like a novel series. Western comics are like movie reboots.
>>214427919This. But also, capeshit > shonen & toku. Even the japs know it which is why they've copied it so much.
