CASTLEVANIA IS NOT AN ANIME

SAMURAI JACK IS NOT AN ANIME
ALL ANIME ARE CARTOONS

We did used to call animation from Japan, Japanimation, but it didn't roll off the tongue as well as anime.

Honestly good
Even if we start off with the pusedo-anime thing that's happening now that will eventually turn to projects like Primal which have an American flair to them and have our own form of adult animation that isn't just trying to hone in on what Japan does
This can only be a good thing to see the medium develop from beyond the Disney and Hanna Barbera-esque kid fare that has plagued the medium for almost its entire existence

I'm just glad "Adult Animation" in America that isn't just raunchy late-night comedy schlock is gaining momentum. I haven't watched "Seis Manos", and I don't know if I'd even specifically like that one, but I do like to see more action cartoons for adults being made in the wake of Castlevania's success.

>Primal
My problem with calling any western action series "anime" regardless of what inspiration they took is probably because I feel like if we go that route, we'd have certain things be built to fulfill that "anime" requirement
Like artstyle for example
Primal doesn't look like generic anime and that's fucking great
It's Genndy's distinct style and if it was "animefied" and was pushed by execs to appeal to weebs more, you'd get shit like Spear being just a generic anime hunk
Take away Genndy's style and his direction and you lose its appeal
And yes I know anime comes in varying styles that stray pass the generic weebshit you normally see but do you seriously think big wigs know that?
I know this all sounds autistic and this next point even moreso but I think calling things "anime" is just a way for marketers to avoid calling something a "cartoon" as if its a dirty, childish word when in reality there's nothing wrong with it
It is what it is
Anime are cartoons

That's fair. I'd argue anime is doing fine as it ever was but I won't force you to watch, and frankly I don't blame you for keeping an eye on the past.

I watched Gargoyles not long ago and I was amazed how much better it was than virtually everything else that's being made now with less resources.

I also enjoy watching old, vintage short films shown in old film festivals along with obscure foreign stuff
I honestly kind of feel like a hypocrite for sticking to old stuff more than new considering I'm pretty vocally against lazily rehashing nostalgia among my peers but my reasons for watching stuff that's already over are
1. The series is complete, no waiting for new content
2.I can quit on my own terms after looking up at what point is generally considered to be the moment where quality declines. Saves me from disappointment
2. No active fanbase means no cancerous fanbase (no seriously, I have a Black Manta tier irrational hatred for the modern day animation community from the e-celebs to the specific fanbases)
Though, I will admit the appeal of discussion and speculation for a show is lost for obvious reasons

No shit, you can't please everyone. On 4chan, western animation is treated like sections. When people on this site say Western animation, they really just mean US animation. French animation for example, gets lumped into it's own category, a category that some anons think is fine because the French are more lewd about things.

You're wrong because those don't actually exist and thus your theoretical situation has no merit.

Like it or not, mainstream "western" animation is dictated by the perceived taste of North America with the US and Canada being the bulk of the content made representing "western" animation. And most of the content both make are designed to appeal to children, with the bulk of that being comedies

exactly my point, sadly some people will never attempt to branch out to discover or take chances and too them the only thing that does is exist is the stereotype they have built, frankly lesser known animated works need better distribution outside of the animation festival crowd, but that's always been an issue. and i don't imagine that will change within the next decade.

It truly never ceases to amaze me how "cartoon" faggots jump at the slightest hint of the medium being "taken seriously" regardless of how minimal it is or how shit it is,

SUfags have been yelling up and down about how great Future is, while showing off superficial qualities like "see it's talking about PTSD and deconstructing the earlier seasons, that means the writing is great now!" without understanding how poorly it was executed or how it ruins the actual whole of the show they claim to understand and care about , or how this thread seems to think because Castlevania is anything other than a subpar video game adaptation that is literally no different from actual video game anime adaptations like Devil May Cry in terms of quality.

Primal at least to its credit is a well done show for what it's doing, which frankly is just
caveman Conan. But to expect it to lead to bigger and better things is just wishful thinking at best.

"Those people" exist, because they aren't proven wrong. Western has very little action and virtually no dramas that aren't sprinkled with comedy, and even less not aimed at children.

People should have to dig on YT for artsy shorts, and nobody besides animation nerds are going to give any non-mainstream animated movie a chance, least of a all one that isn't CGI. You can cry normies being lazy or whatever, and claim yourself superior because you know about cartoons from France. But at the end of the that isn't going to help the reputation of western animation is it?

That's exactly the point, because to them Disney IS the entire medium across the board.
That's why western animation isn't taken serious and we're flooded with comedies every fucking year and viewed with mockery.

Like it or not. products are made by the viewed demands of the public, regardless of how accurate it is or not. Again you can snicker at the uniformed pleb public and the fat cat academy, but that's not going to change the perception of how the medium is viewed now is it? That's not going to make it seen as any more seriously than it currently is it?

It's a fucking self fulling prophecy. Studios make kiddy schlock all the time and it gets the bulk of the advertising, that's what the public sees and understands the medium as and drives their attention elsewhere, the medium never grows and is simply content with creating more the same.

Rinse and repeat

I've said this for a while, but the main reason for this is because there simply wasn't an outlet for adult animation until recently. It fell into a weird spot where the audience was there, but nobody outside of cartoon network really wanted to fuck with non-comedy animation aimed at an older crowd (and even they did it pretty sparsely). Thanks to online streaming becoming a stable alternative to cable, we're going to be seeing a LOT of unusual shit this decade that normally wouldn't have much of a place on television.

I didn't say you did. I said, it's not going to go anywhere or mean anything unless it is.
The ONLY reason we have adult comedies now is because The Simpsons became a juggernaut in the television landscape which inspired studios to greenlite more adult oriented animated products, most of them being comedies with a few other genres thrown in for good measure like Spawn or The Maxx, which neither did that well when compared to something like South Park.

We need a real animated drama to be that big in order for any real change for the western side of the medium, which is frankly a boarderline impossible task now.

Not really.
The reason AtLA stands out so much is because most kid's shows have dogshit writing (since, again, they're made for kids and the writing usually isn't the focus).
And notice, there hasn't been a single kid's show since with AtLA's level of writing, including its own sequel series, which was written like absolute dogshit.
You may not like to hear this, but in literally 95% of cases, "written for children" is indeed a synonym for "bad," because children don't care.

Spongebob arguably because it has jokes that are actually funny for an adult and someone clearly had some writing chops on staff.

And you still can't come up with anything to disprove my assertion that modern anime writing sucks because they've fallen on reusing the same archetypes rather than new characters that actually feel fresh.

All you have as a defense is that the specific examples don't count because of course they have bad writing, it's for kids and all these western shows that are actually entertaining are actually bad too. It's pathetic. You're so invested in defending this, and yet you have no defense.

You were bitching about the writing not the charcters.

Of all the issues Konosuba of Flip Flappers could have, it's not because the goddamn characters are stock archetypes.

How the fuck do you even know about said stock archetypes anime has, when you admitted your reference pool is limited at best, anime characters have their own tropes for their characters.

And again, those are fucking parodies, they're MEANT to be overly exaggerated characters for the fucking JOKE.

Even we do reference some modern anime titles, it won't do any good, since you'd probably call them shit anyway, most of which you probably wouldn't have seen and would simply call it shit for being anime

There is, the term literally just refers to animated stuff made in Japan.
That's it.
It's not a style, it's not a genre, it's a regional identifier, just like manga or bande dessinée.

Devilman Crybaby, Pop Team Epic, and Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card all came out the same month. Three shows, with wildly different genres, tones, artstyles, styles of writing, character design, and animation

Do you think a western company would greenlit those shows in the same year, let alone the same month?

The worst thing about anime are the fucking cliches they try to shoehorn at any opportunity. When characters go to the beach, somebody would certainly say "Umi da!" like we haven't seen this exact scene in 10000 anime before. But they think it's funny when it keeps being repeated.

Which eventually gets muddled when you have Korean and Chinese animation which have no specific terms so people just use anime for them as well, except for some elitists. It definitely started as you say to separate itself from old western cartoons, but now it's just a loose term for anything not western animation, which is sometimes still debatable.

If people get slashes up it's objectively a slasher.

But really though, you're grandstanding a practice in futility anyway. Specific, narrowed terms do exist but aren't used because people just don't have time for that, all people. Unless you're actually studied on the topic there's no real benefit to being that stringent. It would be like like expecting your average non plumber person to be able to fully recognize and name ever part and facet of the tubes under their sinks, instead of just calling them pipes. People take shortcuts for efficiencies sake, Asians included. They don't exist as some special causality that Americans simply wouldn't understand, no people does.

This is why anime fans are arguing this so vociferously. The problem is people like you who muddy the waters, however unintentional. You are making the term less useful. You are excluding legitimate Japanese-produced animation by hinging it on style or genre. You are playing into the hands of marketers who want to turn it into a commodity. You appeal to laymen ignorance when others bring elucidation. For what purpose? A kneejerk reaction any time your assumptions are challenged online?

>It's NOT the gold standard, you're just picking on it because it's the scene everybody jizzed their pants to, and it's popular,
Yes, I said so. It's what people were treating as the "gold standard". In fact, I just looked it up and instantly found it under the title DEMON SLAYER BEST ANIME FIGHT SCENE.

Yes. It continues to disappoint, so I don't make a habit of watching it. Why would I spend my time doing something that has proven to be unpleasant in the past?

Here's the thing cupcake, I mentioned all that to emphasize how different they all were. Which I guess flew over your head.

Literally none of those shows had ANYTHING in common, including character "archetypes" all of which were chosen because of how influential they are to medium in some way.

Your whole tirade was because "anime has dogshit writing, because all the characters have the same archetypes" which generalizes the medium by your limited worldview

And now you have the opportunity to give answers, you dodge the questions entirely and have the audacity to claim I am.

Fuck you

You admitted you don't actually watch anime, and it's not because "it continues to disappoint" but because you're a lazy dipshit who refused to look deeper than the surface and have an open mind about series you might actually enjoy but will never try.

Actually, I continue to try to watch anime series, and stop watching because they turn out to be bad. But keep stomping you're feet and whining about how nobody has the right to judge your favored form of entertainment unless they've forced themselves to sit through 5 seasons of it.

And you proved yet again, you have no idea what the hell you're even talking about by being ignorant of what said archetypes even are.

The shows you mentioned>>113848013 do not represent the entire medium, or even their respective genres and barely have archetypes in common. Hell Konosuba is praised because NONE of its characters, with the slight exception of the MC, follow their archetypes and purposely subvert them

And you bitch and moan about vague archetypes, in attempt to have a point when you aren't versed enough in the subject to have that opinion.

And you're reeeing because someone has a different opinion than you, admit it. You're trying to find proof of my statement about archetypes being wrong because of the anime I named. I named those because I was asked which ones I had watched, so naturally, I chose the ones I had actually made the effort to start watching. The ones I started because they looked like they might be more interesting initially than most. And even those were ultmately boring. You wetting your pants over those not being the ones that epitomize those repetitive trends proves absolutely nothing.

And here we are yet again, you dodging the point entirely and bitching about quality or lackthereof when your whole point was bullshit and you are not versed enough in the subject to have a decent opinion

It's not about having a different opinion, it's about having an educated one.

The specific shows you named couldn't have been worse for your opinion, because it colors it under false pretense, especially when two of said shows are parodies meant to emphasize the inherit absurdity of their premise and genre

What I'm saying is your opinion is shit, because you don't have the proper context to use them to judge countless other.

I don't give a fuck if you liked them or not, but the simple fact of the matter is you cannot use them as gauge and authority. Going back to the three other show I mentioned, your pool is extremely shallow when you can't even describe two of the most iconic anime franchises of all time and the archetypes they revolutionized.

I'm fucking done, next time you want to start shit you better have watched more than just the first five things on google when you type "anime to watch"

This implies that the western artists are trying to achieve the same thing the Japanese artists are. I think we both know they're not. It will always be funny to me how the public wailed and seethed about Big Mouth for having kids go through sexual-related puberty situations, while also seething about how ugly the kids were compared to anime preteens and wouldn't it be better if they all looked sexier. It's like people were more upset about the idea of preteens exploring sexuality than they were over the idea of teens being ogled sexually by grown adults.

Ratings are based on content, not execution. An animated series that's mature without treading into adult material can still get a tv-y7 rating, which puts it as appropriate (and typically oriented towards) children, even if it can be appreciated by adults.
Adult animation implies it's at least tv-14 or higher and contains adult content.

There are actual guidelines in place, and they're based on type and amount of adult-oriented content. A series with more complex writing but not a lot of adult content will get a more child-friendly rating and will typically be more accessible to children too.
Adult animation, by definition, will contain more adult material.

I'm just saying it how it is, calling anime an "artstyle" is doing a disservice to both Japanese and Western animation
For the former, you're insisting on the stereotype that anime has to follow one specific artstyle and direction and excludes various, countless works of old and new that stray from the mass idea of what anime is
For the latter, you're basically acting as if simply calling something a cartoon be a negative and enforces the stereotype that they are solely, inherently "juvenile" and that western animation can only be accepted and granted that "mature" title as anime if they drop their identity in favor of that cookie cutter mass perception of what "anime" is
