>>98167504>Is it really all that popular?It makes up a gigantic chunk of communities on the Internet, this entire website among them
Compare that to cartoons, which have... /co/.
>It's not going to compare with stuff like the Simpsons and Family Guy or whatever, which is the kind of popularity you'd want to start producing your own shows.That's retarded. We're not talking about crappy "adult" sitcoms that just happen to be animated
>If the demand can be handled by importing the output of the single country, that suggests there isn't really a big demand for it.That's even more retarded. The market is nowhere near saturated, and if there were actual cartoons with high-quality writing being made they'd wipe the floor with anime ratings.
