>>99425565>>99425541SU IS shit, but don't forget that right from the start it had the tumblr crowd hooked and was the sacred cow and the art crowd darling, for so long at the start it could do no wrong and people were congratulating it, patting it on the back, fellating it and corrupting everything around it. Thousands of artists fell to its influence and plague, ravishing their unique artstyles and assimilating it into itself. For a time, it was untouchable. For a time.
But deep in the mines of the mouse, Nefcy and her crew worked in silent humility. Did they spend their budget hiring YASSS KWEEN celebrities to voice one time characters? NO, they spent the budget to get better animation studios for the next season. Did they take it for granted that the show runner could do no wrong because they were the studio darling? NO, nefcy swallowed her pride and took genuine input and learned from executives on how to run a show. Did they bitch and whine about sexism in the animation industry and how they were so brave for putting in progressiveness in their show? NO, they put it in silently and tastefully while focusing on the core writing of the show. Deep within the mouse's mines, their power grew, their talents honed, the show quality sharpened. SU's hubris was unquestioned even as it let its empire fall to ruin around it, even as its influence in boarders plagues the network in lookalikes by proxy nepotism instead of genuine emulation, even as years of it being around have absolutely ruined aesthetics.
Yet the power weaned and patience thinned, and from the shadows, like a black knight, like a cowboy samurai, star vs came out of the mouse's mines and so easily, so effortlessly, outperformed and blew the fuck out of SU. Not through unearned oligarchy, but through the power of forged steel and will.
Star VS was never supposed to be as good as it is now, it started out as canada flashtoon tier. Now it's arguably the best cartoon on tv.
