I was a huge anime fan back in the late 1980s, early 1990s, and

It got 10000000x times better gramps.

Nothing. 80s and 90s anime were just as souless, appealed to the masses and conformed to the aesthetics of the time. Nothing about this has changed, Japan just likes different things now. Anime is an industry, there is no integrity beyond smaller studios that air stuff at 2am.

Same with US films, star wars and jaws singlehandedly killed an entire medium.

I don't know what you mean. Anime has always been and always will be shit.

technology advanced and people grew older while other people were born.

>>137154150
Suck my dick, faggot.

You know you can still watch old anime, you've probably seen a fraction of what's available of old stuff.

Nothing's changed. It's the same as it's always been, but with better fetishes.

Explain your concern.
I've been here all this time and it's just better than in the 80s. Production values and art style.

You are old grandpa. Why are you still watching kid cartoons?
