>>82200050>>82200085>There are more shitty animes than there are good ones.Yeah I guess anything is shitty if it isn't 2deep4u.
>Anon, don't know why you felt the need to explain that animes derive from mangasBecause you seemed to think that anime is mostly written from scratch.
>That's pretty ignorant (for a lack of a better word) since these traits are not exclusive to anime at all.Nobody said they are exclusive to anime.
>To say that live action television is less varied than anime shows how little exposure you have to Western media.I'm a Westerner and have been watching Western entertainment my whole life. The range of genres and subject matter in anime is huge and as far as I can see more varied than American TV.
>you're trying to say anime is better than Western animation simply because Western animation focuses more on episodic showsThat's just one of the reasons .
>Putting aside that a lot of Anime just uses the same character tropes for their stories...Literally everything is a trope. It doesn't mean anything. I am also talking about the story, not the characterization.
>Creating an episodic show isn't easy...Story-driven or otherwise continuous shows don't necessarily have any detailed backstories for their characters, or they are only revealed later.
>List me the differencesAnime is based on cinema, Western animation is not. Anime has a massively wider range of genres, stories, themes, subjects, styles and target audiences. Anime has very different animation and character design styles. Anime has higher production values (animation, background art, character design, lighting and shading, music, sound design etc.). Anime is part of a large, tightly integrated and coherent media ecosystem (manga, light novels, video games, visual novels, audio dramas, commercials, merchandise). Anime has a unique fan culture. The production, broadcasting and monetization system of anime is very different from how things are done in Western animation.
