It's generic and childish.

retarded child jokes ruin the show only managed to watch it once

i liked it and having a western cartoon contender but naruto was on at the same time and avatar just couldn't grip me the same way
talented writers though, would've loved to see what their original vision was like without the nervous "for kids" program meddling
it's just too juvenile for me now despite its themes, i wish i watched it younger

It's literally korea-burger slop for kids who's parents thought Dragon Ball and Naruto were too violent. Once you watch anime you notice how derivative Avatar and shows like it really are.

Bc it unironically has SOVL and is generally paced pretty well being only 3 seasons. It doesnt overstay its welcome and the payoff feels good

avatar is prime gen z television. it aired when 80% of zoomers were in their childhood and it was likely their first taste of a linear, story driven show
>>
>>214845552
I’m pretty sure there were supposed to be 4, originally. They had to cram it into one season
>>
>>214845604
wasn't the fourth book supposed to be a followup to what we got in book 3?

I remember book 3's finale was around the same time as the summer olympics. I really enjoyed that summer a lot, and it was one of my favorite school years overall. Better times. Wish i could go back..

As someone who thinks anime is childish, low frame rate, overpowered protagonist, several episode flashback, collectivist garbage, can anyone recommend an anime I might actually like? "Akira" was passable until the Cronenberg thing appeared, then it became completely incomprehensible. As it is, I've only really enjoyed megami33's "Sailor Moon Abridged" and LittleKuriboh's "Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged".

They did it by taking inspiration from anime, but not including all the aspects that make anime cringe.

That being said it is very good.
I honestly think that the US rating system is the only thing holding it back, it getting a 5th season like it was always intended to have would have done wonders too.

C.S. Lewis "On Stories" emphasized that the best stories for children are not those hampered by the thought of who is to read them, but rather made for the explicit purpose of those who understands them.

If they don’t include nonstop exposition then autistic children like >>214849221 can’t even put together the ending of Akira. Maybe My Hero Academia would be more his speed lol

>Akira
You're an anime only faggot that doesn't even try to engage with the source material.
The Akira animated movie is simply devoid of any of the nuance and depth the manga version has and you sit here and pretend it's good just because you see other people parrot it.

Shut the fuck up reteard.
>>
>>214850383
I get that the Cronenberg thing was some sort of reaction to Akira's genetics, but that wasn't foreshadowed at all, and Akira/Tetsuo/whoever becoming God in their own universe was a major asspull. Is there some explanation that makes these two events less inexplicable?
>>
>>214849904
I'm not a fan of military sci-fi.
>>214850054
Really? The description of Wataten makes it sound hopelessly kawaii, like Hello Kitty or something.

Why would I read manga when I'm already not an anime fan? Freaking weeb.
>>
>>214850530
Tetsuo’s powers were growing at an almost exponential rate, especially after he stopped taking the drugs. His powers were going out of control early on, it was completely foreshadowed. He says his power was outgrowing his body. His body is trying to morph to adapt to the overwhelming power inside of it.
Akira’s psychic powers were so strong that they were becoming nuke-level, also something explained. Akira embodies the next stage of human evolution. He had already “ascended” in a way, and the espers called him to help Tetsuo “evolve” to the next level of sentience just like how Akira did. He was able to keep his sense of self, which is why he says “I am Tetsuo.”
The movie cuts a lot of stuff from the manga out, the manga is huge.

Now I feel bad for explaining the story to you. Go back to twitter, abridgedfag.

>>214850700
OK, fair enough. Of course, that leaves space for Akira part 2, where the crappy government in our world invades the new universe so they can screw it all up.
>>214850721
Still hoping to hear about an anime I might actually like. Maybe there isn't one. Maybe anime is only good when it's the subject of ridicule. Thank goodness for megami33 and LittleKuriboh.
>>
>>214850790
LittleKuriboh genuinely loves anime like Yu-Gi-Oh, and this white girl you’re simping for probably does too. You’re just seething because that other asshole was mean to you. Fuck off, fag. No one’s taking your opinion seriously.
>>
>>214848431
atla has a satisfying ending. this alone makes it the superior anime
>>
>>214850941
I love attack on titan but that ending might be one of the worst endings of any series of all time. Ymir Fritz falling in love with the king, Eren’s rant about wanting to bang Mikasa for years, the “thank you for becoming a mass murderer for our sake” line, the kid named fucking Falco becoming a bird. Isayama even said he was inspired by Avengers.

>Not Kill anyone
>Literal genocide of the Air Nomads to prevent one of the four bending types to exist
>Jet almost kills an entire village because he associates anyone related to the Fire Nation as being his parent's killers
>Jet himself is killed offscreen in the second season
>The guy with the eye tattoo thing explodes

Not to mention they do have some disturbing concepts even for a kids show. Blood bending is probably the creepiest and the fact one of the main cast members uses it to torture their mom's killer is one of the most disturbing scenes in the entire show's run.

Now I haven't watched the Korra shit so that probably is a lot worst. But the show did have balls for a 2000s Nickelodeon show. Especially now when the darkest thing you will ever see from that company is what their staff did to child actors behind closed doors.
>>
>>214851054
Korra isn’t anywhere near as good but it also has an onscreen double suicide
>>
>>214850941
10/10 show with 7/10 ending is better than 8/10 show
>>
>>214850849
What opinion? I'm merely asking for an anime that I might actually enjoy, after listing all the reasons I normally can't stand anime, i.e. >>214849221. And what white girl? As much as I want to fuck them, I think women are soulless psychotic demons, the pretty ones most of all.
>>
>>214851054
>main cast members uses it to torture their mom's killer
She didn't use it on her mom's killer, just a random fire nation captain, and she didn't torture him by any means. She just forced him into submission.

Not that anon but I’ll give the manga an 8/10 with a 4.5/10 ending. The anime has too many production issues and etc for it to be 8

Can you restate that, please? I can't parse your word salad.

>I’ll give the manga an 8/10 with a 4.5/10 ending.
I would agree with you. Although the manga became a lot less interesting after Eren finally made it to the basement.

I couldn't be bothered to continue watching the anime knowing how shit the ending was

It was OK but by the time Season 2 ended I already felt like I had matured past it. Never finished. Not my problem.

>>214851621
Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt (the anime’s name) was conceived when the jap creators were drinking and watching Drawn Together (an adult animated comedy series that you may or may not have heard of)
the dub suck ass
I don’t know what genre of anime you are looking for so I just threw a suggestion out there. If you don’t want a comedy then nevermind. There’s a lot of different genres and types of anime, you have to let us know more of your tastes. People like the first Ghost in the Shell movie a lot.

Ah. "was conceived", not "with conceived". I've heard of Drawn Together. It's about fallen angels, so that might work for me. So you recommend I watch the original Japanese version with subtitles, then? I'm not averse to comedies.
Ghost In The Shell sounds like military sci-fi.

>>
>>214851994
I feel like watching it dubbed takes away half the humor of japanese girls screaming american obscenities and the script is changed a lot but some people like it. To each their own I guess.
First season is more based off of stuff like Drawn Together and original South Park and etc while the second season that just ended is more referential to american movies like Breakfast Club, The Thing, etc. Kind of like a japanese love letter to american movies while still being what it is.
>>
>>214852177
Whatever happened to Azula in the end? I know there's expanded lore with the comics and shit.
>>
>>214852324
I think she gradually recovers in the comics that came after it, but she's still emotionally damaged
>>
>>214847074
TLA is neither fish nor fowl. The writing is clearly trying to impress adults. The animation and characters are juvenile, but if anything they're too understated for a real kids' show. Millennial manchild core.

Better than 99.9% of anime though.
>>
>>214851400

>>214844453
