He's not mad that it's mainstream, he's mad that the industry's pigeonholed itself into making pandering wish-fulfilment garbage for otaku.

>>120409922

whatever. While I do want to see more stuff out of the anime scene I don't want Miyazaki's final plea for change make the studios turn into try-hards or something.

>>120408839
OP is a mistake. He's nothing but a dick sucking faggot.

I understand his frustration, but I wouldn't say it's reasonable to say anime was a mistake. Someone's gotta reclaim anime though. It's really hard to claim that the otaku-pandering isn't a problem. Every other show is about lesbian lolis or a variation on some sort of girl-raising game. Sometimes we get manga/VN adaptations, but even those don't take any risks.

>>120410219
It was in the west, but that doesn't count because that's not where anime is from.

>>120410324
I googled "anime was a mistake" hard but couldn't find it to be his word. Is that a meme or something?

Every show is selling poorly this season except for KanColle. Anime is dead and your favorite shows didn't save it.

Wrap it up, animailures.

Anime is in a pretty shitty state though, couple oddball shows a year don't change this.

More like they don't get the funding they deserve. Hardly matters though since there aren't even any animators left in Japan.

Miyazaki is a pretty interesting person. He's seen a lot of things and tells pretty interesting stories, both in person and via anime.

Also, it's not unusual for artists to think that their craft is shit. It's a part of that tortured artist character.

You mean like every other industry in existence? He's been saying this shit since the 80's you know. And there has never been a point in time where anime wasn't pandering to otaku. In the 70's and 80's it pandered to mecha otaku.

>>120410384
>Every other show is about lesbian lolis
I wish.

I'm laughing hard at the "oldfags" in this thread. Take it from someone who has been watching anime since the 80's, there is a lot more good shit now then back then. People bitch now about moeshit and haremshit, and pretend the previous decades were some golden age of diversity. You faggots do know that 1 out of every 3 anime back in the old days was a mecha, they pandered way harder then than they do now. In fact because there is so much anime now there is a shitton of variety and creativity every season.

50+ anime a season with only 3-4 of them being harems and people bitch about over saturation, imagine in the 80's when there was 15 anime a season and 5+ were mecha

>>120411521
I'm not really butthurt, it just seems so arrogant to me.

I wish people would take off their nostalgia goggles. The only reason you faggots think anime was great back then and shit now is because you only remember the handful of great anime in the sea of shit. Just like in 10 years from now people will be screaming "the 00's were a golden age for anime! Not like all the shit we have now!"

>>120411778
The quote is somewhat out of context. He was saying that a lot of modern anime is created by people who don't understand real social interaction, and movement and only know anime thus create shit characters, dialogue and animation

>>120411910
No, you need to have experiences and perspectives in order to write well. It's no coincidence that often, the really good writers tend to be either batshit insane or gone through some batshit insane stuffs or both. If you lack the experiences or perspectives, you have a really limited pool of ideas to draw from.

Nah, dude, that's just the way the stupid people see it because everybody talks about writers as "rock stars". The reality is that artists are all fucking shut ins that lived their life either drugged and fucking whores in their house or shutting in and practicing their skill.

None of those 4 changed the medium significantly, they were just heavy hitters and sold so well it caused more of that type of anime to be made.

Something selling well doesn't mean it pushed the boundaries.

>>120412836
Dragonball and One Piece are, whether you or /a/ agrees or not, in fact masterpieces because they warped an entire genre around them. Every shounen fantasy / action manga draws on elements from Dragon Ball and One Piece. I personally hate One Piece, but that doesn't change its impact on the medium as a whole. Naruto didn't contribute anything to the medium, it was just a popular show riding on the coattails of Dragonball and One Piece

>>120412872

>>120412910
>they were just heavy hitters and sold so well it caused more of that type of anime to be made

Except that's exactly what changing the medium means. They were all highly influential and introduced a lot of new anime fans.

Calling something a masterpiece is elitist by nature, and the way I see it, it's usually niche and closer to 'high art'. Ping Pong was an excellent example by that anon.

I've been watching anime for over 15 years. I've seen all the classics from every era of animation (including all of Ghibli's stuff), and have nothing to prove.

Doesn't change the fact he's an old man who's biter that the world as he knew it is gone and not coming back.

So? Doesn't also change that he's mostly right.

I don't mean in terms of being "better" if that's what you're thinking. I want a Tezuka, Fujiko Fujio, or Miyazaki 2.0 not just by style or hype. I hate that the west is holding Miyazaki as a shining beacon but takes no inspiration to do something. They worship like Jesus Christ ir something. I sometimes wonder if Cartoons can be saved.

I absolutely love how butthurt he makes /a/ because he calls their copypasted vomit out for what it is.
Half the people in this threads are so fucking mad they can't even type properly anymore.

Right that most of it is trash? Of course it is. Most of everything is. But he has no authority to decide for the world that anime as an entire medium was a "mistake". His arrogance in thinking he does is colossal.

>>120413686
That, I agree with. He may have gone overboard with those words but he has a point nonetheless. Besides how can he call anime a mistake when we got masterpieces like Haibane Renmei?

Miya-san has such a calm attitude towards the future even though he knows it'll be shit.

Who has the authority to decide for the world then? Do you? Because you seem quite adamant to decide for the world that he is wrong.

>>120413468
I would be too. It was a better world, at least media wise.

>>120413398
I am.

I decide for ME that it is wrong, which is all I need to do to invalidate his statement.

Anime was not a mistake because it's brought me many beautiful, thoughtful stories and has enriched my worldview in positive ways, and despite his claims has given me many strong, intelligent, kickass female characters who I esteem as far more than mere fetish fuel.

Anime was not a "mistake". This would be the case even if it was just true for me alone. But it isn't.

>Anime was not a "mistake".
And again, you are attempting to decide for the world that anime is not a mistake. You are doing the exact same thing you are faulting Miyazaki for doing. And if I need to choose between you and Miyazaki to decide this, I'd go for the one that has actually done something and not the one going "anime made my life better, kickass women".

I don't understand where you get the hubris to decide that your personal assessment of anime gives you the right to invalidate Miyazaki's opinion.

I don't understand where you get the hubris to "choose between" me or him. You're making the same error he did, speaking for other people. I don't speak for anyone but myself. You can call that "hubris" all you want, but at least it isn't presuming for others.

It's fine if you take his side. I'm really quite sanguine on the subject, because anime does and will exist. Let him continue to wither away on the wrong side of history if he likes. He's impotent to stop it, as are you.

I agree with him in a way, the anime industry certainly needs to work on its presentation and writing, but that said, I think that Ghibli stuff is not really my cup of tea and the fact that Miyazaki acts like it's the pinnacle of the anime industry bothers me.

Do you perhaps have trouble reading? I said "if I need to choose". It is a simple opinion of whose opinion I value the more.
>You're making the same error he did, speaking for other people.
Who am I speaking for in this case? Also, how noble of you not to include yourself in this list, despite the fact that you have been doing that from the beginning.
>I don't speak for anyone but myself.
Except by saying that Miyazaki's opinion is deciding for the world and then saying he is wrong, you are deciding for the world his opposite point. How can "anime was a mistake" decide it for the world but "anime is not a mistake" not?
>Let him continue to wither away on the wrong side of history if he likes.
And now you are deciding the history for the world as well. Congratulations.

It decided on its own without his, my, or your input. That's the whole point. I don't have to decide for the world. It already did. I just have to decide for me, and that's all it takes to overturn his statement.

Further discussion would seem to be pretty unfruitful at this point, so I'll leave it here.

>>120415213
>It already did.
This is not an universal truth. It is your opinion.

>I just have to decide for me, and that's all it takes to overturn his statement.
It doesn't work like that. If a historian says "slavery was a mistake" and I say "no, slavery was not a mistake", it doesn't invalidate his opinion, which probably is more educated than mine. And that is exactly what you are doing, but for some reason, your hubris lets you think that you have the right to do so.

And yes, you should probably leave this here. Your ability to hold a rational conversation and process concepts logically are as bad as the images you post.

Reminder that you are all arguing over a fake quote
