Why don't they make shows like this anymore?

Look at recent trends. Anime has taken a dive due to who it's been made for. Moe fucked things up over ten years ago. Now we have the next fad of crap to drive it down further. They don't experiment anymore and it's easy to see why.

Apparently it wasnt that succesful in Japan during its air time, so even tho it became a classic worldwide in time, in Japan it was just another series, it died down, and was replaced by other anime, and shitty moe trends.

Space Dandy came out only like 2 years ago right?

Funny that I was just watching the first episode again, anyways, time changes man. Like >>161824412 said, creativity doesn't pay bills anymore (not that they ever had in the anime industry)

>>161824259
Blood Blockade Battlefront was only two years ago though.

>>161824259
Because they developed taste.

I don't even want another Cowboy Bebop-tier show. All I want is a show where the characters aren't just a reel of fucking tropes.

>>161824871
Maybe stop watching the most popular seasonalshit on /a/ then.

>>161824912
What are the best shows for characters atm, then?

>>161824746
Well that's a bit depressing ain't it?

>>161824951
Watch Twin Peaks season 3 and stop complaining already.

>>161824259
Depends on what you mean by "like this"
Narratively that kind of sci fi western is out of style. Visually there are some okay shows out there, but cel is dead. Overall there just aren't that many (if any at all) talented folks left in the industry capable of making originals like this.

>>161827997
Crazy since Cowboy Bebop is pretentious trash people with 100 mal entries seem to flock to. Just like the latest Miyazaki children's movie or Akira.

>>161828056
Everything you named is good. Popular and entry level for sure, but really good nonetheless

>>161824259
>implying Bebop isn't an oddball even for its time

>>161824259
because the high majority of money for anime is through merchandising. Hence why moe and shonen reign supreme. I mean fuck, just look at soul eater for a great example of fanservice having more importance than writing quality or anything else

>>161824259
Moe shit has literally ruined anime, prove me wrong.

Huh? I thought there would be 2 more episodes. That sucks. Who cares if it's 3d if it rivals anime in complexity? Oh well. Guess I'm going to have to find a replacement show before next week.

The series finale is episodes 17 and 18 in a 2 hour block just like the premiere was episodes 1 and 2.

Rewatch CB, it wasn't that great.

>>161824259
Probably because you don't watch enough anime

Also, bebop is overrated trash

There's no money to be made in it, and whatever people would want to do it as a vanity project either can't front up the money for it, or haven't accumulated enough corporate goodboy points to fund it.

Ur tarded my man. Plenty of shit contrived anime was being put out 'back in the day' you just only remember the good ones naturally. Some faggot in 10 years will be saying the same shit you're saying now about 2000s and 2010s anime because he only saw all the good shit and wasn't sifting through every shit mediocre seasonal anime that came out at these time periods

>>161824871
that's exactly what cowboy bebop is though.

>>161829209
Watched it recently. It was every bit as good as when i first saw it in '98. You faggots think the shit that Kyoani puts out is good, so i am not surprised at your shit taste

>>161832881
Are you new? That's extremely good average sales for late night anime. Your average anime can only dream of making it past even 10K.

Lack of talent in the industry
All these tryhards are bitter because /mu/ made fun of their nightcore collections and are trying to cast that same sort of Digibro/Pitchfork nonsense elitist shadow that they in fact live in

If there were the talent, they would become mangaka or LN writers, it'd get picked up if they had a decent agent, but all the talent left the market

>>161833345
He's not wrong though. Kyoani killed creativity in anime with Lucky Star and K-On.
Well, the fans did by buying that garbage up by the bagful, but that's same difference.

This, honestly.

People are so busy whacking off to the (admittedly still very sexy) corpse of Bebop that they don't give the hot fresh and vital good shows coming their way a chance. Then again, BBB having a small English fandom is nice if it means the threads aren't a cesspool of shitposting, fights and waifufags sexualizing Chain. (I'd prefer it to be just me and a small handful of fellow patricians sexualizing Chain.)

There's people like Yuuasa or Matsumoto Rie about though. You're just fucking retarded if you think all of the 90s was good, 90% of it was the same seasonal dogshit as ever.

People have been saying anime is dead for 25 years.

>>161840215
In no way did I implicate that all 90s anime was good, you imbecile. It is undoubtedly superior to modern anime, however, on both a macro and micro scale. Anime is not dead but severely diminished in an artistic and technical manner

>>161840245
>It is undoubtedly superior to modern anime, however
Again, you're comparing the good bits from then with everything today because no one remembers the trash seasonal shows from 1997 any more.

You look at the few well animated series and don't remember all the pre-digital shows full of QUALITY with stock footage out the ass.
You don't remember all the terrible low budget OVAs of the time.

>>161824259
Who the fuck would ever go into anime for westaboo trash?

>>161840325
And perhaps you are ignoring the absolute artistic mediocrity of the majority of post-cell shaded anime. The best of modern anime is come from old and established directors and writers who rode the wave of Japan's great boom, now dissolved. Anime has been gradually diminished by the deviation from tradition within the medium, now devolved almost entirely to a mere industry.

>>161824259
Because the same show never gets to be made again.
