With the general perception that anime is for freaks and Western

>>93175421
It was too immature. I mean, I liked it and loved smoking pot with it. Most people outside of the 15 - 27 age range are not going to watch it.

I feel like the best way to make adult animation would be to have a life action movie with a lot of animated segments strewn throughout (or a Roger Rabbit type movie).

Make multiple of these and turn it into a genre eventually making the animation the thing that people go to the movie for.

In 20 years you could probably make adult animation viable this way.

Adult cartoons can be funny without excessive cussing, weed references, and raunchy sex jokes.

>>93175421
It's fine for what it is; a blatantly dumb, immature, silly adult movie. It isn't some sort of grand, revolutionary film, especially given that there have been adult cartoons for ages, not to mention Fritz the cat did the "cartoon movie but for adults" thing long, long before this.

It was a commercial endeavour spearheaded by people who don't care about the medium who mistreated the fuck out of the animators.

Western animation will only stop being for kids the day it drops a daicon iv

>>93175421
It was an immature mess despite being R rated. I mean for fuck's sake, the hotdog buns resemble vaginas, how can you think it'll revolutionize anything.

Granted it's funny, but it doesn't deserve nearly as much praise as it got, especially when the whole thing about the poor working conditions came to light.

>>93175421
Underpaying and uncrediting workers with the threat of blacklisting them from the industry if they speak up

Also all it did was perpetuate the perception that cartoons are either for kids or are adult comedies like Family Guy, The Simpsons, Futurama, etc. In my opinion the biggest recent thing that could have, and kinda did, challenge the animation age ghetto was Samurai Jack Season V but then again it was airing on Adult Swim which has proven to be mostly niche and it aired right next to an aforementioned anime.

>>93175916
Never said it was good, it's just the earliest example I can remember.
I don't think it was too bad, but it definitely felt like a movie you're meant to watch while you're high, as much of a cliche as that is to say.

>>93175890
The world needs more people like Ralph Bakshi.

>>93175944
Maybe. It was definitely one of those "feel bad" kind of movies because Fritz is such an unrelenting scumbag and he accomplishes nothing.I'd be miserable if I watched it while high.

Basically this was back in the day when studio gain a were literally a bunch of college dropouts working in a sweatshop off their own dime to make animation.

See, the thing that makes it special is that this was around the time that anime wasn't considered for adults. Once upon a time, it had the same stigma as Western cartoons. But bit by bit, they started making stuff like gundam to try and expand the medium. It could have been a fluke, but when a bunch of rogue animators just dropped this shit at a convention, it changed everything. It gave the movement an identity behind a genuinely moving art piece, and it wasn't made for profit. It was made out of passion. If this hadn't dropped and kickstarted an unstoppable movement establishing anime as a thing adults could be into, they would be in the same spot we're in today.

So it's not gonna get better with some giant media company making a gimmicky adult stoner movie. It's gonna get better when enough people male enough adult content at the same time, and then some really talented dudes make something genuinely special enough to literally save western animation and inspire everyone else to keep making adult animation.

>>93175897
I don't get how that would prove anything?

>>93175923
Daicon is Japan's equivalent of Comic-Con. During the fourth ever held one (hence roman numeral IV); the opening ceremony featured a AMV-Featurette done by a bunch of animation students in their dorm(s). Said students were founders of Gainax.

American nerd culture is so antagonistic towards one another that we'd never even have something like this at Comic-Con.

>>93176690
Oddly enough, the manga which is based off was sold in the US legally, and the circus tent was just a stage for look, Hiroshi Harada (The Director and sole animator) intended to be released at independent theaters but the film was destroyed by Japanese airport Customs, NOT the government, it was already censored from 53 to 49 minutes since Harada ACTUALLY submitted the film to Eirin (Japan's film board) which requested 29 edits before it could be released more widely.

The film is not really banned around the world and not in Japan, but it's screenings were very sporadic, and it only survives trough a beta tape transfer done trough telecine, it was released in France on DVD by CineMalta.

LiveStrider got A LOT of shit wrong and he even calls Harada a Degenerate shut in! The guy suffers from severe ulcer which means he can't move constantly, and yet people think he is a creepy weirdo on restraining order or something, the guy is actually just a regular dude but with a desease, he even got bullied in his youth due to his condition.

If Daicon was a testament of what can be done in animation, which lead to Gainax, then what Hiroshi Harada did to adapt Shoujo Tsubaki into a medium taking the risks that he took and takin into account the censorship he might expected, at the very least should be a telling of inspiration.

..........Juuuuuust as long if it's not a horror manga that has the worst and cruelest shit ever that might get people arrest if tried today........

Why did Mr Harada choose out of all things adapt a horrorific manga by Suehiro Maruo and adapt the horrible shit that happens there and even add more shit was anyone's guess....

>>93176019

A million times this. I'm certain it will eventually happen. It's never been a better time in history to gather up a bunch of passionate people and animate something amazing. Hell, they can all live in different countries. The hardware and software costs very little if costs are split or crowdfunded.

It just takes the right leader to pull it all together. Unfortunately, the U.S. is fresh out of effective leaders in pretty much everything except the tech fields.

As for as Daicon, this wouldn't be the last time Anno (one of the guys working on it) would save animation. Anime was growing very stale back in the day until a little known anime called Neon Genesis appeared and once again kickstarted anime.

Seriously, you go watch anime, and despite working for pennies the work effort and quality that comes out of the hundreds of shows the put out are a selling point in and of itself, compared th american animators who pump out mmmmaaaaybe five shows a year, overpriced, cutting maximum corners, making content that no one really cares for.

Literally the most horrific and repulsive animated movie ever was animated by a single dude because he wanted to see it animated so badly.

It's an absurd amount of effort for something so outlandish, yet it'll always be hidden away because of its content instead of being heralded as one of the great passion projects.

As weird as it is, that level of madman levels of dedication are kind of what American animation needs to kick its ass into high gear with taking animation in more directions that the toy aisle at Wal-Mart.

>>93177194
Anime only panders to shut in Otaku nowadays, also anime isn't mainstream at all

and of course the west can't compete with a country where people literally work themselves to death

>>93177242
Sealed with a kiss was animated by only one dude aswell, no one is talking about that movie either

>>93177257
Strangely that movie entirely does belong in the toy aisle of walmart.

I wish we had more Sita Sings the Blues.

>>93177257
Shoujo Tsubaki was traditionally hand-animated, looks like it was done by a real studio from the time despite being made on a single person's life savings, and is quite literally banded from Japan and a ton of other countries.

Sealed with a Kiss was done in Flash and had a budget of $2mil.

>>93175421
It never set out to prove it was for grown-ups.

The only people who thought were cartoonbrew and some retarded memesters on /co/.

It was just a dumb stoner crude comedy. That is all it wanted to be. Nothing more.

>>93177242
THAT'S what I was talking about.

Look, Shoujo Tsubaki is horrible, but not horribly done or executed, it's based on a horror manga for fucks sake and apparently it is the tamest of the author's works, I actually read the manga, and believe, there's significally less Gore in its printed form, and, call me crazy but, it's somewhat, less scarring, aside from the animal cruelty and the abuse Midori has to suffer, I mean the manga was published in the US oddly enough around the same time the movie came out.

Also most of the scarse info on it that is on the web seems made up or mislead, like the whole forbidden around the world and the Japanese government destroyed it or that 20 minutes got deleted from it! (It was actually just 4), heck most stupid cartoon reviewing smuchs don't even know that this was adapted from a manga done by Suehiro Maruo who is the father of Horror and Gore in Manga, and they assumed that Harada just did all because he came up with it.

I mentioned already but Shoujo Tsubaki isn't truly banned, in the whole sense of the word.

Look, the film got made in the span of 5 years and released in 1992

After his initial screening in a red tent made for the movie, Harada submitted it to the Eirin Board and they requested 29 edits so the film when from 53 to 49 minutes.

It was screened privately from time to time up until 1999 when the original film print was shown outside of Japan, like for real.

When it arrived back at Japan, Japanese Customs from the airlines seized and destroyed the film print.

Harada had save only a Betamax of the film since and he learned that the negatives were destroyed by what it seemed more of a dick move, he got pissed off and refuse to let the movie being shown again afterwards.

But in 2006 he mellowed enough to allow an official DVD release on France and even made a documentary for it, it's even on YouTube (hard to watch due to being spliced with scenes from the Alpha Gory bits but what he says comes from his own mouth and it's rich).

Since, the film was shown on festival screenings at least twice in Japan as of 2013 I recall.

>>93177108
I dunno, but apparently Harada had already a background of working at other studios, hence the scenes of actual motion look like it was done by an anime studio.

All this things I said about Shoujo Tsubaki and I ask..

Where will ever by a true horror animated film?

NOT a spooky film that is light-hearted but with out of place spooky shit like or a comedy parody.

The closest we have is Frankenweenie, Monster House, Tim Burton Stopanimation, Coraline and Book of Life.

All restricted to still being Walmart hipster marketed let it go crowd.

>>93175421
it was so ridiculous even teens would've thought it was stupid.

It was a premise that could've worked fairly well but they tried way too hard to be "hey look at this it's Mature and for adults, dude weed, boners douche lol" it was just cringey. Some of the scenes actually tap into some dark shit, like the douche's arc that to consume is to be a god, and he starts eating other products. There's also things like watching all the messed up stuff that happens to food as its "prepared".

But then they ruined it with literal food porn and edgy drug jokes.

The ending especially is just fucking ridiculous and super cringey. Fuck even South Park would be embarrassed to pull something like that.

>>93177558

That's a complete bullshit narrative. Plenty of damn good anime was made in the early '90s, its just that Eva kickstarted the popularity of anime series among mainstream adults and encouraged fare that appealed to that audience to become more common in late night slots. Eva is incredibly idiosyncratic in its own right anyway.

>>93177917

Because it wasn't "adult" in the slightest. The only way animation can be taken seriously as a medium is if it tackles adult THEMES, not just cursing for an hour and a half.

That's not what it was doing.

It was basically the same thing Fritz The Cat was going for. A mediocre flick that had it being mostly unheard of be its selling point.

You can't change public perception easily. Especially on something that people "know".

Look at conspiracy theories or the current state of politics. People spin facts to fit their position or disregard them entirely, no matter your political affiliation. On something that isn't concrete fact simply because its a cultural belief you basically need the next generation of kids to take your side since the current generation mostly keeps such views for life.

The problem with anime is how they usually present themselves aesthetically.

Like the character writing in pic related is unironically some of the best you will ever find in animation. But it degrades itself with its artstyle and perverted antics CONSTANTLY.

Like what the fuck, you know?

Is the character writing really that good? I felt it came off a bit hamfisted pretty often. Not really much subtlety.

Also sexual toothbrush.

Asking ITT too because why not


There's this old cartoon from the 90's or early 2000's which had elements of horror/mystery.
I remember watching one of the episodes when I was like 7 or 8. The plot was that it was a very hot day and everyone is sweating and shit. Fortunately there suddenly appears like a cloud or something and it's starts to rain. Then there's like a weird thing with the rain making people sick and start to transform into some sort of mutants or something. Protagonists managed to cure people and happy ending and all that but the last shot of the episode is showing some old bum who didn't get the medicine transforming into some weird monster type thing - spooked the hell out of young me. Does anyone recognize the show/episode im describing? Would love to see again for nostalgia sake.

Thanks

They should adapt this as an animated film. Fuck live-action and fuck family-friendly shit.

>>93176764
Expected her to fuck the Bull.

>>93188135
What's this?

>>93175421
didn't it get some bad vibes from the animators who made the movie? I can't imagine them agreeing to ever make a sequel for this unless there's some serious improvement to their work schedule.

>>93188555
Convince someone who enjoys it THAT MUCH to spend life savings for whatever it takes em to finish it and hope that when he releases it the film censors wouldn't force him to censor it and then had it be destroyed by customs at airport mail OWWW THAT's RIGHT, we have SJWs here in America now.

If the guy who made Midori got his film materials destroyed in japan in the 90s imagine what would happen if someone in america would dare to do something like that, the feminists and SJWs will labeled him as a child predator nazi satanist and teh old media would get drunk on that koolaid and essentially destroy his life because FUCK CREATIVITY ONLY FEELS!/

>>93190516
Dude, NEVER gonna happen OK?

>>93176019
I didn't know about this until Daicon IV happened in Blue Blazes and Honoo is losing his mind because his "rival", Anno, is so disgustingly talented (when really it's because Anno puts his head down and does the work)
Blue Blazes is a great little autobio comedy, the author really did go to school wth Gainax

>>93175421
Cool World is a more adult version of Roget Rabbit. There's also Heavy Metal (1983), Fantastic Mr. Fox, Animatrix, Akira, Wizards, etc.

Maybe if the stuff /co/ praises as art were actually good instead of just thematically simple and dull animation would be taken more seriously

Has anyone on /co/ watched this edgy "adult" anime?

>>93175421
Are retarded people actually adults?

Do they count?

>>93188624

I don't think in the original myth Zeus fucked her as a bull, just carried her away. I think he may have fuck other women in other animal forms though. Zeus always seemed like a capricious horn-dog that did whatever he wanted because he could fuck up anyone he wanted.

>>93191849
Akira is /a/.

Bashki is just rotoscope crap.

>>93175421
You said this movie was gonna save adult animation /co/
Why did you lie to me?

It took until this movie for an R-rated film to be nominated for a Best Animated Feature Oscar. Before, that category was mostly mainstream kiddy crap.

>>93193268

Wait, it was actually nominated for Best Animated Feature?

Maybe its time to just accept that the average Normie is exactly the type of person that finds Sausage Party to be very funny.

The type of person who gets married and has lots of kids.

>>93193388
because they watch a movie and then go live their life again, not spend the next year ripping apart the movie on a chinese image board

>>93194538
They don't know what they're missing

On the ground of making a legit horror animation that isn't child friendly.

Why hasn't been done?

>>93175421
It just wasn't funny. It relied too much on the idea that cartoons are for kids and that a vulgar cartoon is shocking when South Park broke that mold in the 90s and hordes of imitators followed and continue to arise even to this day.

Also, Seth Rogen just isn't funny. He plays the role of someone who makes good points in a crass yet witty way, yet not once has he ever struck me as clever or has he balanced vulgar with eloquence well. It's like he's spent his whole career trying to recapture the magic of the "Dicks fuck pussies" speech from Team America yet never has.

But hey, he's a multi-millionaire and I'm posting outdated memes on a Vietnamese basket weaving forum, so I can't talk.

>>93176019
I remember crying the first couple of times i saw it,and it inspired me to get into animation and ancient OVAs,im very glad /co/ liked it.
Thank you anon

Why arent foreign or animated movies allowed to win best movie?fuck oscars

>>93175421
it was incredibly childish. shot itself in the foot there.

>>93175421
American adult animation (more often than not) wants to be funny, so we get too many films like Sausage Party and not enough films like American Pop or Fire and Ice.

enjoy cyanide, you fucking reprobate

It proved Western "adult" animation was for middle schoolers.

The problem is that comedians are the only people writing animated movie scripts because it lets them experiment with concepts you can't do live action, and when serious animated movie scripts get written they get sidelined as so far only comedy animated flicks have been shown to make any money.

>>93175755
>loved smoking pot with it
>you literally need to be stoned to like it
Really makes me think.

I liked that movie. Can't wait to see something similar to this.

Well it just wasn't very good.

Congress was a clusterfuck and I don't understand what happened past the hotel thing in the desert.
It felt like there was a time-skip I missed.

>>93175421
nime is shit tho

>>93175421
>lets make edgy sex jokes for the stoner generation, that'll be a timeless classic!

>>93197217
We did get shit like Anomalisa and the Congress

yet no one watched them, maybe because they were nothing but pretentious shit and people rather watch something funny??

>>93175421
It was basically a 2 hour family guy cutaway

>>93200350
Sigh why can't brainlets stay away from animation?

>>93199328
There was a time skip. They put Robin into suspended animation for years because medical technology couldn't help her at the time. While she was asleep, a whole bunch of shit went down into reforming society. I haven't watched it in a while, but I think this plot point was supposed to be clear.

>>93199724
>lets pretend the movie tried and failed at being something it wasn't even trying to do.
