Why were 80s cartoons so terrible?
>>
That was one of the good 80s cartoons.

This was one of that bad ones.
>>
>>85779438
When almost every 80s cartoon was released to sell a product or toy, the artistic integrity of the show would reflect that

Throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks

Transformers happened and that was a fucking goldmine, cue other studios trying to find the next merch goldmine

Also a weird obsession with trying to get certain 'slang' words to take off

No, just a guy with 6 arms, and Galaxy High was one of the good 80s cartoons.

I will never get the random obssession with Laura Haruno.
>>
>>85779592
I meant both.

After all these years I still remember all the Ham-Hams and most of the humans.

Why does anime represent the 70s,2000s, and 10s?

>>85779627
Man, that coloring of Flintstone house is great.

>>85779507
>Galaxy High
No
It's fucking shit.

It must be hard for that lady to put on all her lipstick.
>>
>>85779460
rewatched it, it's really not that bad. the show was recycled to hell but the recycled parts didn't have QUALITY moments parodies want to make you believe it had. It just happens that parodies takes the whole he-man She-ra and bravestar shows as the same package.
>>
>>85779614
TMS didn't "make" cartoons, they were animation monkey slaves and their relevance is insignificant in the industry.
>>
>>85779627
>70's aren't Scooby Doo or Josie and the Pussycats
>2000's aren't Ben 10 or Johnny Test
>2010's aren't Adventure Time or Gravity Falls
The others are fine, but come on.
>>
>>85779728
It's Haruna.
>>85779740
No.
>>85779742
Good for you.
>>85779750
Because the US industry was so bad that people used anime as a save haven.
>>85779775
Fred is in a recording studio and all there is is brown since everything is made from rocks and wood.
>>85779794
No, it's good, just because it's not Tiny Toons grade does not make it shit.
>>85780092
Yes they did, they were Termite Terrace 2.0 and they were not monkey slaves, they were human saints and they got payed (at the time) 2600 yen a hour (now 6600 yen a hour due to inflation and the cost of living in Tokyo).
>>85780143
Cagliostro was a huge deal and so was Hamtaro's human cast.

As for LilPri, we see when the 2020s roll along.

But Laura Haruna is a huge deal in the industry.

What about GRAND DAD Flintstones?
>>
>>85779438
I have no idea what this show is but I kinda want to fuck the purple thing.
>>
>>85780473
shut the hell up with your anime

I'm not a autist.

But Grand Dad is not from a anime.

What episode? That is wild.

>>85780531
That one where Brian and Stewie go through multiple universes (Back to the Multiverse?).

>>85780531
Road To Multiverse.

>>85780527
Hamtaro is not crap.
>>
>>85779438
Japan was sucking up all the good cartoon magic.
>>
>>85781278
And then Korea came to butchered it.
>>
>>85779462
It's quite odd that for the first five years or so of the 1980s, the opposite thing happened in Japan. When Mobile Suit Gundam exploded in popularity following it's second airing, it basically led to a period between 1980 and 1985 where essentially as long as you got the toys to sell, production teams could do pretty much anything they wanted in terms of story, production, etc. This, coupled with a big surge of animators entering the industry inspired by the works on the 1970s, led to a period of auteur driven animated works that lasted essentially until 1985 when a saturated market and changes in tastes led to robot toys not selling too well. A number of series that were originally conceived without robots had them added in in order to get the funding to be made through toy sales.
>>
>>85781468
85 is also when Gummi Bears came out and the industry started to redeem it self.
>>
>>85779438

Don't know what your talking about there anon

But 80s cartoons got some of the best openings and songs ever

Also Galaxy High was good

Rubix
Pac man
Ewoks

Those where bad cartoons
>>
>>85781523
Pac Man was one of the better 80s Hanna Barbera cartoons, explain to me why it's bad.

80s Jetsons from John K did redeem the company however.
>>
>>85779794
So was Jem. I don't know why people pretend that was a good show, it was as full of bad writing, bad animation and bad voice acting as any other '80s shows.
>>
>>85782976
Jem did not have bad animation until Shin Won shown up to replace Toei when they got too expensive.

Also Galaxy High was good.

I'm a 90's kid but in Mexico we got A LOT of 80's shows reruns.
Ans many I enjoyed a lot as a kid.

For instance I loved Yo Yogi! and Muppets Babies.

Hey famicom thought you didn't dwelled these parts anymore
>>
>>85784305
Yo Yogi isn't an 80s cartoon.
>>
>>85784305
I remember watching a pup named scoody doo, laffalympics and kid flinstones, shit was weird as hell.
>>
>>85784772
