KyoAnus invented toastshit and the rest is history.

At 00:00, on January 1 2000, a portal to hell opened and otaku came to Japan. They immediately started taking over the anime industry using techniques they learned from Hitler. In ten years or less literally every show was about a little girls eating cake and screaming onii-chan and getting molested by tentacles while literally nothing happens. All of these shows average 200k sales per volume because otaku buy multiples with the autismbux they get from the government. On rare occasions some renegade art animators, inspired by superior American culture, try to fight back with shows like One Punch Man and Attack on Titan, but they don't sell because they don't have lolis showing their panties and screaming "uguu," unlike the hit show Keijo which broke all sales records.

If there's one thing /a/ has taught me, it's the K-On has both saved and killed anime, it is both the best and worst show ever made, it is both the most realistic emotional journey ever put to story and a show about absolutely nothing interesting. Maybe I should finally watch it.

Do you like very long stories of progression - specifically military and political progression? Then yes.
Most other aspects are lacking, not bad but lacking.
I was more interested in the military side and seeing how genius tacticians would fight one another in space - a field with a shit ton of room for creative engagement - I felt let down because the battles were not as good as I hoped they'd be, that personal gripe aside the characters and progression are very well done and as long as that one of your preferences you shouldn't get bored with it.

Forgotten isn't the right word, because of course those who did watched it still remember it. What I mean is it isn't nearly as popular as it used to be back then.
Kemono Friends will probably be similar, remembered fondly by those who watched it in 2017 but an anecdotal curiosity for the rest. Unless it reaches Princess Tutu status, which it very much deserves in my opinion but the 3D is playing strongly against that.

If anything, the sort of "dark, brooding anime" like Eva and Madoka are deliberate subversions of the genre and of kawaiisa as a whole.

Yet I do feel that it is the fact that these deeper, more intellectual anime exist at all that gives the medium its merit. Animation in the West is never used for anything beyond a few crass digs at the poltical establishment.

K-On! is pretty unimportant in the history of anime as a whole, especially in comparison to much more influential stuff, like Neon Genesis Evangelion, Urusei Yatsura, or Space Battleship Yamato. There was plenty of moe slice of life anime before K-On!, as well as after it.

>>159960061
K-On effectively codified the high school slice of life genre and unleashed a wave of copycats in addition to being a massive financial and critical success. It wasn't the first to be popular (Azumanga Daioh, Hidamari Sketch, Lucky Star, etc.) but it's cast a shadow over the genre ever since it aired. Only GochiUsa (which IMO is mediocre) has come close to replicating the financial success of K-On.

It's not as influential as Evangelion or Urusei Yatsura obviously, but K-On is certainly among the most influential anime since 2000.

I mostly agree with what you said but I think KF is closer to GuP than Haruhi. GuP still makes a lot of money with its loyal fanbase, but most of its fans are people that watched during the craze/ when it was airing. KF will probably be like that too.
Haruhi lost popularity with time, but for years it was a must watch for anyone getting into anime.
