I loved that show when I was a kid.
>>
>>159438361
I get that but what I meant was that the show favors him and fucks over Tom, sometimes in horrific ways, so much that it can get annoying to watch. Of course, this isn't much of a problem in the early stuck but as the show went along this caused it to become unwatchable.

Was this ever intended or even realized by the writers of that show? They always seemed to want us to believe that Tom is a bully, but all I ever see is a diligent cat doing his best to do his job and rid the house of that disease ridden rodent. I don't think I have ever rooted for Jerry.

The size difference and chase dynamic immediately inform Tom as the antagonist, only occasionally will a cartoon include that this is Tom's job and he'll be kicked out of his home if he doesn't remove mice, and it's only in hindsight that Jerry was the invader with all the freedom to target elsewhere and avoid this conflict.

Seen the entire list besides Fight! Pyuta! It's a respectable list but mine would probably be quite different and I think Anno's would too had he grown up in any other era. Not trying to say that the list isn't full of bonafide classics that are still great today but given the way almost everything is from the 70s or early 80s I would have to say that the choices are highly influenced by the time period in which he was getting into anime.

CCA is the opposite of a pleb filter. It has great animation and lots of action which any pleb would latch on to and immediately call great as though those are the only important aspects for anime.

>>159446305
To be fair the reason you get so many people shitting on them isn't because they are hipster or contrarian its because they are trying to fit in and parroting what the memesters on /a/ tell them to believe. If you repeat something about someone/something specific on /a/ enough times other people will start repeating it eventually and it will become prevailing opinion. Works especially well if you base it on poorly translated/entirely incorrectly translated interviews or statements. Just look at what happened to opinion regarding Miyazaki since that "anime is trash" meme started and people bought it on /a/ despite being trollsubs.

It is just mindless idiots who have probably never so much as seen a single one of those shows on the list shitting on them because they are told to on /a/ essentially. Anyone using /a/ as a primary source of information and news on anime would end up with a hugely skewed understanding of the industry and many people seem to claim to do it with pride.

The fact that they are well respected classics on that list is kind of entirely irrelevant and so is the fact that people like Anno and Tomino are two of the greatest contributors to the medium in its history. Just got to repeat the meme opinion to fit in man and look like you have a clue what you are talking about to everyone else who wants to fit in too.

It's only really noted as special in the history of Japanese animation because of the sophistication of the animation for the country at the time. If you look at it in a worldwide context it really isn't all that notable at all. It has a certain poetic, natural and japanese feeling charm to it that is pleasant enough and is rather artful in places but worldwide great, probably not, especially in the context of all time.

There isn't a single original thing about K-on. Every joke, character, and setting is borrowed from some other high school/moe show that had aired since Azumanga Daioh started the trend.
Mix some overproduced lighting and throw in a bunch of rainbows, and wham, KyoAni classic.
>>
>>159447567
I don't think the focus on using it to sell toys died down. I think the number of TV anime that used alternative revenue sources just went up hugely. So proportionally shows focusing on selling a "toy" to a child are less nowadays but I don't think they have gone anywhere.

>>159447621

>>159447204
Specifically catering to different Bluray-buying markets is a specialty of all most modern anime. Moe-obsessed otaku, fujos, isekai shit-eaters, etc. As long as the toy commercial is worth watching, it's fine.

Rakugo and LoGH are nowhere near the level of accomplishment of anything else on there Bebop borderline maybe. As for Animerama 1001 Nights is on there.
>>
>>159447760
It's nowhere near as prominent as old mecha shows attempting to sell toys tho. Most modern anime are adaptations and their main financial purpose is to advertise the source material they're adapted from. Which means far more focus is placed on making stories that people can get invested in, and not on making blocky robots that kids want their parents to buy figures of.
>As long as the toy commercial is worth watching, it's fine.
I agree, and I do like plenty of them, I just hate it when pretentious mechafags claim that they're high art which is so much more refined than all modern anime, while completely ignoring the fact that they were only created to sell toys to drooling children.

>>159447815
But that merchandise isn't the main reason to create the shows, as it isn't mass produced and put on the shelves of toy stores. It's specialty stuff that is made in low amounts and expected to be bought by a small niche of people. The purpose of creating the shows is to move copies of BDs and the source material the show is based on.

>>159448075
Highest grossing maybe, but they don't make up the majority of shows made.

>>
>>159448381
Didn't see that 1001 nights was on there. I'm satisfied with that since it's the best of the trilogy. I would definitely say that Rakugo and LotGH accomplished as much if not more tahn a lot of the anime on that list, especially in storytelling. I would say they easily stand alone at the top in narrative, dialogue, and character development. If it's just visuals, then Rakugo had some of the most unique and inventive cuts and tracking shots of any show that's ever been created.

Please tell me about how Mahoutskai Sally and Panda, Go Panda are bigger accomplishments than Rakugo. Just being old doesn't make it better.
>>
>>159448618
Are we talking about the recent anime Rakugo? If so then I don't think its anything special at all and think you vastly overrate it. LoGH is relatively unique in terms of the scope of the story it tells I will admit that certainly but it doesn't really measure up in my opinion by quite a bit due to its failings in other areas.

The majority of the list is a rework of this anyway:

>>159449051

>>159449051
Sally invented the magical girl genre. Panda was an important step in the artistic formation of two of the industries most important figures in history.
>>
>>159449123
Sally was low-hanging fruit. It's literally just an anime version of Bewitched targeted at a younger audience.
Panda, Go Panda has gorgeous animation, but is incredibly thin in every other aspect.

To who? That's like Saying Tiger Maks is on the same level as Ashita no Joe. The Aim wo Nerae adaptation is a mess. No movie or 80s revival is going to change that.

It's not though? It's a thrilling character study on Hiromi and her challenges/perseverance with tennis and her teammates/rivals.
I love Aim for the Ace, it's truly a classic with some of my favorite characters that exist in all of anime/manga.
>>

My only problems with Aim for The Ace were the animation and the slow pacing. It takes at least 20 episodes (3/4ths of the series) for Hiromi to stop crying and become a hot blooded tennis player. Ashita no Joe 1 suffered from the exact same problems.

IMO, RoV was the first Dezaki work that can genuinely be called a masterpiece, since it fixed these animation and pacing problems.

RoV didn't fix the pacing problems at all, all that Rosalie shit along with that early Antoinette drama is garbage and unnecessary.
It would have been more interesting if they had expanded on Saint Juste's character.
But oh well.
>>
>>159451451
>>159451696
Also I didn't even mention Oscar's love for Fersen that came literally out of nowhere with little build up.
Although this is kind of similar to Hiromi and Todou's relationship in Ace S1 as there's barely any build up until the end.
It's really about her relationship with Munakata though, at least that's what S2 seems to indicate.
>>
>>159451696
>unnecessary
It's set up and it doesn't last any longer than it absolutely needs to.

Taking 6 episodes for the DuBarry conflict, and 10 for everything Rosalie in a 40 episode anime isn't the same as it taking the majority of the series for a tennis player to actually become good at the sport.

This series is absolutely full of bonafide plot-holes, details that differ between episodes which contradict each other. Also a highly inconsistent production in general (the colour of the aliens changes mid series for no reason). It's simply bad. 3/10
>2. Mobile Suit Gundam (1979, TV)
Highly uneven in quality. A good third of the episodes are absolutely irrelevant to the story. It is also too episodic and too TV-like in its development. Plot points are mostly opened and closed in the same episodes, and there is very little foreshadowing for certain major narrative shifts. The quality of the animation is pretty poor (for its time). 6.5/10
>3. Gundam–Char’s Counterattack (1988, movie)
The film has too many characters and plot points for its duration. It also exists in a kind of weird limbo, story-wise, despite being the finale for the Amuro arc. Gundam in general has this problem though, coming from its extremely by the numbers TV series story progression. Still, it has great animation, and very nice set-pieces. 7/10
>4. Legendary Giant IDEON (1980, TV & movie)
Everything I said about Gundam is true of IDEON, except 5 times worse. 3/10
>5. Animal Treasure Island (1971, movie)
This is actually a solid animated film. In tone and development, it is surprisingly similar to a Pixar film. Very different from contemporary Japanese animated films. 7/10
>6. Fight! Pyuta! (1968, TV)
I have not seen this one.

Gunbuster's literally only similar to it in surface-level ways. This is like when everyone was saying Star Wars episode 7 was just like A New Hope because it had a sand planet and the Death Star. Disregarding how retarded that is for a moment, it's more similar to Return of the Jedi, but that doesn't really matter either. It just goes to show how poorly thought-out said complaints are.

The first episode was a parody of it and that's it, you ape. I assumed people would get that I knew that given how obvious it was but I guess I should've explained it. My point was that it's not just Ace wo Nerae because it has similarities to it.

The guy was clearly joking and not stating they were the exact same show. The influence of Aim for the Ace pervades the entire show start to end actually.

Batman Beyond is its sequel so I count them as the same show. I know that there are other shows in the same universe but they're more part of its universe, outside of some crossover. It's a bit like Gunbuster and Diebuster.

1955 best iteration
>>
>>159464357
First off, it's a very poor selection. Everything is post 1990, which tells me you've seen very little anime or cartoons in general.
Secondly, you placed Beyond on the same level as Animated series which is heresy.
K-on!, HunterxHunter, and Shiki are unique in absolutely 0 ways.
Suzumiha Haruhi no Yuutsu is the quintessential shit muncher anime. Empty style, no substance, overproduced and pretentiously long.

Utena and Lupin are both top-tier. Aria and Kaiji are great, but nowhere near the best anime ever made.

K-on is better than aria and kaiji by far. Failure to appreciate K-On is the sure fire sign of the real pleb.
>>
>>159464479
Lupin III isn't post-1990 for me since I've mostly just seen the first three shows and some movies from the 70s. I've also seen a few shows before 1990 like Giant Gorg and Rose of Versailles, which I loved, but they aren't in my top ten. I do admit that I haven't seen as many as I should've, though. Also, a show's uniqueness doesn't matter to me because nothing is really unique. Claiming something is is like announcing that you think you know everything that came before and after it from every single medium and that you honestly believe that said thing isn't like any of that. In regard to your stance of Haruhi, it's just a bunch of meaningless buzzwords. To me, Haruhi has substance on several levels and I'm basing that on what I see as substance. Just talking about substance as if everyone is on the same page as you is disregarding that what counts as substance to the individual is different. This is also not a list of what is the "best anime" because such a list can't exist.
>>159464665
I can't really see how someone who just throws Aria and Kaiji under the bus like that can call others plebs. K-ON! is my favorite anime but Aria and Kaiji are fairly close.

I don't think so.
>>
>>159464865
The only way K-on is better than Aria is cel animation. Aria is superior n every other aspect.

Not that I think that's valid for any of his works, but how does that apply to Karen Kano or Nadia exactly? Not that you've seen them, and aren't just spouting shit you read on /a/.

What the fuck are you on about?
>>
>>159465054
>Dialogue
The dialogue in Aria is both commonplace and esoteric, very suggestive.
The dialogue in K-on is variations of the 200 most said phrases in high school/moe shows.
>Setting
Neo-Venezia
Another fucking high school
>Character design
The designs in Aria are incredibly unique and striking. The elegant and slender figures and subtle yet visually imposing hairstyles are perfect for the show's atmosphere.
K-on girls are all blando gue-gue moe blobs.
>Writing
Aria is multifaceted, ranging from serene beauty to unsettling melancholy. Simple life moments are highlighted along unique supernatural experiences almost seamlessly.
I hesitate to even call K-on's script writing. It's literally just a collection of low-tier jokes borrowed from other 4-komas.
>Background Art
Aria has beautiful and suggestive architecture, effortless juxtaposition of sci-fi elements with the historic buildings, and the constant symbolic presence of water running throughout the shots.
K-on is full of CGI classrooms with over saturated lighting.

Neither of these responses have to do with K-ON! having cel animation, which is why I replied.
>>159465303
>your first three
Basically, because they weren't obviously new, these elements were just dismissed by you.
>Dialogue/writing
K-ON! has decently natural dialogue with a much better flow from how the dialogue is in other cute girl shows, such as Non Non Biyori, another show by the same writer. In the first season, the dialogue tended to only be a little above-average while still resorting to plenty of scenes just building up to a punch-line and then ending but in season two and onward leaned more towards having conversations with small but more character-specific jokes in-between. In several aspects, the dialogue grounded the characters more than a lot of other shows like when they tried to go to sleep during their trip to Kyoto and instead said stupid shit that sounded funny to them because they were tired and with friends. These little phrases becoming in-jokes to them solidified this. I've done this very thing with friends in the past. I love the writing in Aria but it could just as easily be over-generalized as K-ON!'s.
>Hahi
>No ___ allowed!
>___ is wonderful!
Said things are certainly prevalent but they don't define the writing and neither do said phrases you vaguely alluded to.
>Setting/background art
So what if it's a high school? Would you prefer if it were an office, apartment, or hospital like in plenty of Western media, just because they're uncommon in anime? What tends to make a setting special isn't necessarily it itself but rather all of the details that make it special to the characters in it and K-ON! has that in it. Every room that belongs to a specific character, such as Yui's room, or several, such as the main clubroom, tends to be packed with personal belongings or a history to them, allowing them to further enrich the characterization and backstory of its characters.
>>
>>159465754
>>159465303
>Character design
Caling things you don't find to be moe moe is stupid. Anyway, the character designs in K-ON! are less supposed to be "unique" and moreso convey how the character is while being animatable in a way that reflects who they are. This is shown through all of the scenes in which it's just showing the characters' legs. The designs are overall thicker than your typical cute girl show and each girl has a varying degree of thickness.
>Further explaining the background art
Chocking K-ON! up to just being that would be disregarding all of the CGI used in Aria and its occasional lack of coherency. As it goes along, the locations in Aria make a little more sense but each location usually tends to be just somewhere in the town. Unless it's pointed out, you can hardly ever tell where something is in relation to another. Meanwhile, in K-ON!, I can easily get to anywhere in the school building.
>>159465365
K-ON! has music as a major theme in it but it's not about it, it's about friendship and how it can improve you as a person as well as the transience of youth. I know plenty of anime has explored these themes but K-ON! explores them exceptionally well.
