The first one was pretty rough animation wise, but I mean if you go into them with an open mind just looking to have some fun spin off adventures with good songs I think they're fine, and by the second movie Sunset becomes a much more likable character than Starlight in the show IMO

Rainbow Rocks is the best one

"Friendship carries on through the ages" is kind of an empty sentiment coming from high schoolers. How long have they known each other? Like five years?

Actually they've known each other since childhood, but regardless, the thing that catches me in the feels is lines like..

>Nothing stays the same for long, but when it changes doesn't mean it's gone
>Time will always get away as it leaves behind another day
And
>Things may come and things may go, some go fast and some go slow
>Few things last that's all I know, but friendship carries on through the ages
And
>Been around for a long time, rockin' out hard cause I'm in my prime
>Maybe it'll change further down the line

These lines always hit close to the heart because...
I know the ride will end one day
And I will not be ready for it

As someone who grew up in the city this show felt like I was on my home turf.
Playing on the streets, the urban legends, it was the little things.
Most cartoons have their settings in the suburbs, something I can barely relate but most cartoonists seem to have grown up in one of these.

Are there more shows based on big cities like Hey Arnold?

I liked how the comics and this animation captured high school dialogue/priorities pretty well. Not that it's necessarily challenging, but it felt pretty genuine compared to how a lot of media portrays high school friendships and relationships.

Yeah, I liked how Hey Arnold was set in a working class neighborhood in an inner city I didn't appreciate the show and the setting until I had moved away from the big city, but it's something I can appreciate now.

I think the creator even acknowledged that the setting in a working class inner city neighborhood was intentional since these places get ignored or something like that.

Not exactly the same sort of city vibe, but Phineas and Ferb takes place in a city I believe

I know how that goes. There's no cartoon that's set in a Rust Belt town that actually feels like a Rust Belt town. There's a couple of shows that pay lip service to the concept of being set in Detroit or Cleveland but don't really seem like they're truly set there outside of a passing visual reference or saying the city's name every now and then.

I come from a smaller city than either of those though. I was able to feel some love from some live-action media. My childhood experience was much closer to the mundane parts of Amblin films or Eerie, Indiana. My hometown is this bizarre mix of actually somewhat important city, small town, farming village, and transportation hub. It sorta doesn't make sense really. But if you lived there you'd get it. But I guess that's why it's hard to portray in media because it isn't any one thing. So you could only hope any show or movie captures any small part of it.

Anyway, shows that hit too close to home, I was like 95% Wirt when I was in high school.

Me too, in fact a can find a kid like Sumo or Jeff or even Clarence if a dig in my childhood memories, so relatable.
I don't think my adolescense was that interesting but i think that the idea while making good stories is that anyone can feel identified and also recall a friends or girlfriends like in Scoot Pilgrim's style, it's and curious insight.

The new season started with an episode of one of the main characters going to other school and how Clarence with it.
When I thought they were going to go full status quo, they actually keep it that way. The whole episode felt really awkward, and even tho Sumo appeared for a few seconds in the next episodes, it's been already a few episodes without showing him at all.

If they do a rencounter episode where they feel how they lost the spark, they gonna hit jackpot.

Nah, it sounds about right for the Midwest Iowa?. I spent about a year of my life travelling throughout the Midwest and I'd see tons of towns that were basically the regional railroad hub that were basically the big city of the region, yet were still pretty much a small town.

>Detroit
I really like God, the Devil and Bob but I hated how the show supposedly took place in Detroit, an 80% black city, but there's literally only one black guy in the show (not counting MAYBE one or two nameless, lineless people in background).

Maybe by "Detroit" they meant "an unnamed suburb in the Metro Detroit area," but in that case they should have just said the name of the suburb instead of calling it Detroit. I think maybe the creators never even lived in Detroit. One episode had the characters going to the DMV, but in Michigan we don't have the DMV. We have the Secretary of State office.

>>90670080
>that spoiler tag
i want to believe its true and i will because i am numb to disappointment and meaningful emotion

>>90672782
A large amount of states don't have a DMV but it's still used as a catchall by writers who either haven't done the research or want the audiences to immediately understand what characters are talking about.

Motorcity and Transformers Animated are frustrating. Because they do more than usual but it still feels like the writers skimmed a couple of paragraphs on the Wiki page and decided that's all they needed.

But there was a really cool ep from the 90s Hulk cartoon where he and Thor fought Gargoyle in the salt mines. They had a fight in the tunnel and there was even some throwing down on the Ambassador Bridge. That shit was cash. It felt like somebody cared. Even if just for a one-off ep.

For me it's like regular show because I feel like both Mordecai and somewhat rigby.Mordecai can't do anything that he wants because he's afraid of the outcome that it's going to immediately slash out at him and he will just live on to regret it.Rigby gives me the sense that I have all these ideas that I want to be and want to be noticed,the only thing I don't like about Rigby is that he's selfish and willing to throw people down the bus so he gets what he wants he's a bad friend to say.Idk but that's how I see regular show and I still rewatch it.

Possibly. But walking along the river and going from one city to the next by yourself has its own sort of magic. Heck if you walk towards the military installation you'll end up in a park with a big waterfall in it. Pretty cool for the Midwest.

I'm working on scripting a webcomic I'm going to make about childhood living in what I coin a sub-rural area. Not suburban but not rural, a weird mix inbetween where your entire back yard is slope down into the woods and there's no sidewalks anywhere. (Pic related, I'm from Not-On-A-Map, CT, USA)

Are there any shows or stories that have a similar feeling?

It depends entirely on where you live. Hell even in a single town it can change. I live in a nice and comfy neighborhood where nothing ever happens but just ten miles down the road at my job I'm on the cusp of the projects and a lot of shitty white trash that just steal everything.
