America and Japan have always had a back and forth of taking inspiration from each other's animation styles. If you think that we're starting to see a shift come back into the western side, then I hope you're right.

Castlevania completely inspired by anime, right down to the cheap, shoddy "animation" used in everything but a few fight scenes.
Devilman is literally an anime character.
Samurai Jack was trash for nostalgia babbys.

>>93999671
>Moeshit has confirmed that 99% of Japanese anime is shit starring teenagers in a school setting, no matter the genre
Current season:
>36 full length anime series premiering
>12 TV shorts premiering
>8 2 cour shows carrying over from last season
A total of 56 anime have new episodes premiering on TV every week right now.

Out of those, ~22 have a school setting of some kind.

You couldn't even manage to watch every anime without a school setting this season even if you wanted to, there's simply too many.

Fact is you probably just don't like anime in general and use "moeshit" as an excuse to not watch any.
>>
>>93999671
Devilman Crybaby is by Masaaki Yuasa and his studio Science Saru. Wouldn't actually say that is Western.

The highscool setting in anime is the same as the highschool setting in American teen TV (aimed at teenagers), only by a an undefined factor because adult working life in Japan is true terror and the otaku with disposable income for late night anime look back with rose tinted glassed on their teen years or have uniform fetishes. Late night anime is its own ecosystem really.
Which is why streaming services make room for more varied content outside of terrible light novel adaptations.

If you aren't a multi studio coop like Ultra Super Pictures that can negotiate rights for many different studios. Which is how for example Hiroyuki Imahishi have worked for both Titmouse, Zansigen and Disney.

The popular saturday morning toons are still Detective Conan, Pretty Cure, One Piece, Crayon Chin Chan, etc.

I think the current TV Tokyo saturday morning animation ratings are: One Piece, Pretty Cure and newcomer My Hero Academia. Which is basically Spiderman goes to Xaviers School For Gifted Youngsters and becoming mentored by Superman.

Oh yeah, new Avengers anime this season and a proper one this time. Three kids with superpowers want to be mentored by the Avengers.

You're right, I fucked up on Hitorijime and Nora, but Hell Girl is episodic and doesn't have a specific setting other than "modern day japan" and Skirt is College Life. I guess you could call that a school setting if you're really determined too, although they function completely differently as settings.

Also, as previously noted, I missed two, so you still got eight wrong, and were counting two categories that weren't in the original 22

99% of that episode was still done by Korean studios as it's clear as crystal day that nobody at the studio cared about doing outsourced work, it's why Pierrot's episodes of Korra looks so shoddy (but instead of Korean studios it's C & D rate Japanese studios like Magic Bus (AKA the Japanese Akom) & Actas) and in the end you would of been better off ditching it to Rough Draft.

I'm mad you actually tried to use Devilman as part of your troll attempt but I'll humor you and let you know that's still a regular anime just being sponsored by Netflix like Knights of Sidonia.

So you have 2 cartoons, one of which literally is over vs. the rest of an industry of lolsorandomcartoons
>>
>>93999671
Anime has become far more influential. Castlevania itself was patterned so much after it that many people think it actually is anime. Avatar was based on anime. Voltron was originally an anime. Wakfu is based on anime. Animation in Asia is taking after anime. There is twice the number of TV anime being produced now than American shows. Anime movies are beating American movies at the Japanese box office every year except for Frozen (which Your Name was or is only a hair's breadth away from overtaking).

>Moeshit has confirmed that 99% of Japanese anime is shit starring teenagers in a school setting, no matter the genre
Moeshit doesn't exist, and your own comment shows why: it has no consistent meaning. Everyone just thinks they're talking about the same thing because they're using the same word.

>>93999740
Anime hasn't been influenced by American animation since the 1950s or 1960s. And yes I know you are going to cite PSG as the exception that proves me wrong, but it's a single show out of thousands and not fundamentally different from other anime.

>>93999794
Anime has the best animation in the world. Don't try to blame it on whatever problems Castlevania had.

>>94001242
Most of the shows you highlighted either don't take place in high school at all or have barely anything to do with it.

>>94001424
Yet another example of how moeshit doesn't mean anything.

Waifubait doesn't exist either.

Both do, and pic related shows the things I think marks them. The non-existent noses, the lack of any kind of depth in the face, no shading, just a blank slate, apart from some pink puffy cheeks. We had cute girls in previous decades, but none so simplified as today.

Wow, I'm convinced, you're so right.
>>
>>94007982
I just explained why it doesn't mean anything.

People call things bait when they don't like them and when they project their dislike of that thing onto the creators. They also don't understand what a waifu is in the first place.

Certain kinds of character designs do not qualify as waifubait either. That doesn't even make sense. It indicates a lack of understanding of what a waifu is.

Average marriage age has been pushed back in Japan too, and there is less of an expectation of women becoming housewives than in the past. The popularity of the high school setting has nothing to do with this anyway.

Have you considered that maybe the reason why western animation blows ass compared to anime is because the asian market is just fucking huge compared to the western market?

Like, you realize that they dont just make anime for japs, right? That shit is spread all over asian TV. Even asian webcomics have animated trailers these days, look up the webtoons stuff.

Maybe it's just that there's physically more people involved in anime than there are people involved in western animation? ESPECIALLY considering americans have a weird standard of having all their entertainment be centralized around hollywood, but also outsource all their VFX including animation to other countries?

It's not like every anime character is in high school. Shirobako, Sakura Quest and New Game for example are about adult women. Kemono Friends is about animal girls which have no equivalent in the real world.

>>94008209
I detest ironic weebs, so I guess I'm not the infamous ironic weeb.

It literally isn't the furthest from the truth. There is no animation industry in the world better than the Japanese one. We don't live in a world of equal outcomes or a world where America just happens to be the best at everything regardless of actual merit.

>>94008231
Overseas sales were significant from 2002 to 2008, evidently because of the American anime boom. After that bubble popped, overseas sales were small from 2009 to 2014. Now they've increased significantly because of streaming, but I don't know how big of a percentage Asia is compared to America/the West. But even if overseas sales crashed again, the industry would just keep going. It's not reliant on them and didn't become what it is because of them.

American animation likely has even more global reach than anime, and the US population alone is twice as big as Japan's. They also have significantly larger budgets.

You're right about overseas sales, but again, it seems like its just from a western perspective. Anime airs all over asia, man, there's more people in that one specific spot of asia than there are on the rest of the planet. Japanese culture gels a little better over there than in the west, not perfectly, but its culturally relevant, there's tons of chinese people who watch anime.

That said, yes, there's a huge otaku market, but it's comparable to the capeshit market made up of a bunch of old boomers with expendable income. They've started to have problems because a lot of those fans have been dying prematurely, so they're pushing for younger teen audiences. It's why shonen canceled a load of old series in favor of brand new ones, and as far as stuff like my hero academia is concerned, that's where the money is.

American animation is bloated, only a handful of studios have that kind of reach while the rest are fairly national only. Canadian animation actually has a much wider reach cause of france and, by proxy, africa, and by further proxy, specific spots in south america. America has a larger population, but there's explicitly more animators working in japan than in america because america literally does not hire animators in house most of the time, and those that do usually use very cheap puppet rig animation like rick and morty or bob's burgers, or the first season of star vs. It's a very big problem because animation is experiencing brain leak where anyone who knows how to animate just has to go work in other countries if they cant work at the one or two giga studios.

Larger budgets are kind of the problem, the entire reason shit is outsourced is because animators get paid too much as it is for work that honestly isnt worth that much money (and I say this as an animator), and add on top of that the mess that is the voice acting industry and how much the budget usually goes to marketing, it's killing the breathing room to make animation at all.

I was citing Japanese statistics that don't specify where the foreign sales are coming from. But looking further down the document, it's shown that the US licenses the same amount of anime as China, and North America and Europe combined are as big as Asia. So it's a 50/50 split.

>That said, yes, there's a huge otaku market, but it's comparable to the capeshit market made up of a bunch of old boomers with expendable income. They've started to have problems because a lot of those fans have been dying prematurely, so they're pushing for younger teen audiences
Anime is a very big and active industry, there's always new fans coming in, and the otaku of the 80s were young at the time too. Even the wave of new fans created by Evangelion are only in their thirties and forties now. There are fewer children now which affects daytime anime and just makes anime skew towards older audiences. The average person at Comiket is in their early thirties.

Truth, but when was the last time you saw a cool anime like that? Castlevania looked like an OVA from the 80s, it has flaws but it's still incredibly fun,

the Japs only know how to make cute little girls doing nothing or light novels about nerds without personality with a tragic past in fantasy world making a harem with an invincible power, the best anime That they manage to do recently are some pretentious 2deep4you dramas, That just only really works if you are a horny teenager or a weeaboo

Fantasy action? This season. And the previous one. And the one before that.

These shows are a meme and don't actually exist.

>light novels about nerds without personality with a tragic past in fantasy world making a harem with an invincible power
This is a strawman, and light novels are not all the same or all fantasy.

>the best anime That they manage to do recently are some pretentious 2deep4you dramas, That just only really works if you are a horny teenager or a weeaboo
Why are dramas exclusively for "horny teenagers," and why would an extinct and minor American subculture from years ago have any relevance for the industry?

>Anime is dying
According to people who don't know anything about it, don't watch it, and think that the success or failure of anime is measured by how well it manages to appeal to the average Westerner (who is not the target audience).

This utter hatred coming from some people, it's just insecurity right? Castlevania was just more animated action schlock to most of us, even I as a castlevania fan. But people latch onto it out of desperation saying "look! It's the best it's ever been!" simply to validate their fanatic devotion to the west. Or maybe it's a childish notion that if you enjoy eastern animation in any capacity you're a "weeaboo" and oh no I can't be called that!
It's so pointless and if the mods had any sense they'd delete these threads.

I love Castlevania but the series is shit, mostly because it's so anime-like, so it's very talky and the animation sucks and nothing ever happens. The absolute worst thing is when two characters stand at the sidelines looking up at what's going on and they dump exposition at each other.

The proof is in the pudding and has been explained at length many times in the past. Some people are just too blinded by nationalism to accept reality, don't actually know anything about anime, or have such a simplistic view of animation that they think more animation drawings = a better work of animation. Or all three.

Adaptations of isekai light novels are a small minority. They just get a lot of attention because everyone in the West hates them. Although there are relatively many made right now, it's just a trend and will go away eventually.

And just because they are all in the same genre doesn't mean they are all the same. Right now there are three isekai shows running (or more?) and they are all different from each other. Isekai Shokudo in particular has a novel concept.

If you mean on a purely art quality you're correct, there are very few. This is due to their draconian almost self replicating teaching methods.
But in my book pure art quality can only get you so far if you're creatively bankrupt as Japan animation studios are forced to be.
They say this is the only way they remain self sustainable tho.
Which is ironically the opposite here, where everyone thinks he's a genius but no one's actually funding anyone or willing to do any work.

>many of them were inspired by anime
Indeed, but what entertainment industry doesn't copy what's working at the moment?
Also, I think Japan more than almost any other non-western country in the world is inspired by myth, tales and themes from our western civilization in their art. So I'd say we earned that at least.

Waifu as a concept has been lost on /co/, and so called "ironic weebs". When a person is insane enough to fall in love with a fictional character and devote themselves to that character as a real person, that is a waifu.
So sure, a cartoon character can be a waifu. But you pretty much never see anyone go that far for them. Cartoon girls don't inspire the same kind of insanity, usually.

Look at those Christmas threads on /a/ and /v/ with people making shrines and giving food to their waifus. The same waifus they'd been with for up to 10 years.That's what a waifu is.

There are many shows every season, and even if there are three or four isekai shows (which there usually aren't) there are still 30-40 others. And isekai is just a genre like any other.

That doesn't tell much, most anime films are released in so few theaters that 1 or 2 billion yen in ticket sales is more than enough to at least break even, and that is for movies with high profile.

No I'm sorry but you're being very foolish. This is what I said before, you start to believe some myth about anime, and without watching anything or looking at the charts you fanatically believe it no matter what people tell you.
He's not saying quantity>quality. He's bringing into question your statement "all anime is either x or y" isekai or moe, when you named but eight series out of hundreds.

Did you know that sports is a huge genre in anime? How about mecha? There are far more mecha series airing each year than isekai. Tons and tons of niche genres like psychological gambling, modern fantasy like Fate, comedies like Gintama. Shounen battle series like the big three I'm sure you know. Seinen battle series like Kabaneri, sci-fi like Knights of Sidonia and Psycho Pass. Whatever the hell you call the shows that Trigger makes, Little Witch Academia and Luluco. I fucking love a series called Saki which is all about playing mahjong, but I'm sure you'd blanket it under "moe shit" because it has cute girls, though you have to think and learn the game to even understand what's going on.

In my OPINION, japs have far more insistence where they enjoy what they do and it shows in the quality. Not saying its an every show thing but certain shows just jump in quality and I doubt its entirely budget related considering how inconsistent it is

Half of it is truly moeshit, frills and little ribbons everywhere, I prefer yet another mon series ( who have more eyecatching designs and bolder lines) now, moe is enjoyed by plenty of people, but if you happen to dislike it, you will hate a bunch of series because most of what is being produced is moe, like up to 60% however moe fans can't get enough of it.

The problem is that moe waifufags and Otaku in general cannot grasp that people actually like and dislike different things for no logical reasons. So they will try to "convert" other people in to liking something.

There are a lot of passion projects were even if they dont get payed for more or better frames they still do them because they are so obsessed with producing something of perfection. You have to be this insane about animation to work in that industry for longer than 3 years.

One Punch Man comes to mind. Those animators didnt have to go that hard but they did because they liked it.

Like I said, quantity is not better than quality. They churn almost a hundred show but only 5% percent of them ever reached above average. Westerners churns out more TV program and documentaries than the japs. Does that mean they're all good?

>>94011288
We already agreed that Isekai and SOL moeshit are meme cancer.

>>94011402
>You said anime = only moe and isekai.
I never said that you fried jiggaboo coonskin, I was replying to that poster that said Isekai was a minority and didn't even disagree with him, it's just that the nips still pushes that meme genre inhumanely and when they're not doing that shit they pushes out moeshit(especially SOL) like no other.

>>94011531
>Except that's never going to be viable
I never said that his work is viable in terms of scheduling and production. Despite of those cumbersome process he's still able to make beautiful detailed animation better than the Jap. My Love is one of my favourite but I've never seeing Firebird yet.

>At most you'd get a movie, no one twentyish show will have that type of quality.
I settle for anything really, even if it is a short animation work. I just want to see more of this type of animation.

>Apart from that, half of this is your average in-game engine cutscene stuff.
The cinematic transitions to that(or maybe it's made with both digital art and in-game model, I don't know) but I like the pastel effects that they did.

>Now Imma go get this game and play it.
eh I don't like SP-focused RTS that much but it's decent. I give it a 6.5. Above average gameplay but amazing art direction and cinematic feel.

The claim that they are meme cancer is itself a meme.

>the nips still pushes that meme genre inhumanely and when they're not doing that shit they pushes out moeshit(especially SOL) like no other.
The Japanese anime market doesn't revolve around you, and moeshit doesn't exist.

>he's still able to make beautiful detailed animation better than the Jap
No he isn't.

>>94012178
But why is this the case? What's a specific distinction between moe and not moe?
Does a show just need (subjectively) cute girls to be moeshit?
>>
>>94012131
Well, compare Lucky Star with Yotsuba To!. Both are comedies that rely almost exclusively on moe elements.

In the latter the moe is based on a kid's point of view and falls in line with the theme and pace of the story. it has a purpose and creates a good athmosphere overall.

In the former it's just there because so ronery fgts get boners and turns the whole thing into a saturated color mess (with frankly good voice acting)

I don't think you understood the implications behind "even more sexual". The early moeshit animes weren't necessarily lewd, but it was obvious they were popular because the adult audiences wanted to put their dick in them, and sutdios capitalized on it by making the moe designs progresively more sexual in subtle and not so subtle ways

So the studio producers in charge of designs don't design their animes?

Sure thing, kevin-san.

>They're literally not.

They are obscure as all fuck and extremely niche, but what they produce is top notch save for a couple meme series like wakfu.

Sadly they don't like doing semi realistic styles so it's hard to draw a direct comparison between works.

pic related. GOAT historical series, but so stupidly niche in style and genre it will never see light outside france. Beats the shit out of anime seasonal anime.

Just like how Blacks are naturally good at dunking it ( in more than one way ;D ) Japs are good at being very detailed and precise in what they do, I bet this is why they are also good in miniaturization.

Now that's something we can debate for a while

Moe elements are as old as anime itself. This is a fact. But moe alone doesn't make moeshit. You need a specific combination of elements to get something like moeshit going. (ie: casual "comedic" convesations amongst girls that take lewd angles or have innuendo compeltely unbeckoning of the anime's themes)

While some series got dangerously close to moeshit, they mostly drifted to their own niches. It was Lucky Star that got the mix "right" and began to attract massive adult / young adult audiences for things that at first glance were for kids.

In fact, i'd argue that if it weren't for Lucky Star exploding in popularity, anime wouldn't have been overtaken by subtly lewd moe elements like it was in the early 10s, Hell, Lucky Star wasn't even the most moeshit series out there, that prize goes to Moe-fucking-tan where the male character outright lusts over a "teenager with a loli easthetic".

If it weren't for LS; moeshit would have been confined to a shitty comedy niche like Moetan was.

Just now Japan, the country is having problems with its banks, a crisis so animation is being reduce to elemental products or in other words instead of adapting great mangas they're producing porn and harems.

They have a lot material to work already written in manga but they can't animate those cause it's a risk.

So it is not that Japan animation has a crisis but the country has a big problem now

About American animation there're many korean animations nowaday and "American" animation (Disney insists all the movies produced by one of the most famous companies of Japan written and animated by Japaneses are american now cause Disney bought them)

American animation has improved since Adventure time but CN is trying to sell cheap shit cause they're greedy and I don't see a bright future for American animation if people don't want to invest on it.

Good point. Not like he'd know the finer points of animation outsourcing.

>>94011601
I know you're invoking the brick wall theory here Famifuck, but I'll tell you right now that the majority of the industry is like that- The animators get overworked to the point of death. Companies like Toei, Pierrot and the like have to juggle multiple series at a time (either produced by them or in outsourced facilities). Hell, an episode director of Naruto died while working on a Pierrot-outsourced episode of a Production I.G series: https://blog.sakugabooru.com/2017/07/18/welcome-to-the-ballroom-episode-2/. To say nothing about how often shows get many episodes outsourced to companies per season.

Face it, it's a problem that needs addressing, "Political correctness" doesn't factor shit into these kinds of discussions.

Your precious TMS may or may not confine themselves to a similar situation, I'm not entirely sure (I can't prove it, and I sure as shit know that neither can you).
>>

Western animation in terms of animation itself without the script has improved but is really far away from japanese animation, I mean the difference between stone age and modern age.

Naoi please leave.
Telecom was reserved on Little Nemo during Rescue Rangers' production as everyone at TMS that did Rescue Rangers ended up at Disney Japan anyway.

Thats why the TMS episodes of Rescue Rangers were stiff and stilted compared to the much more fluid episode of The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh of which you can tell Telecom did work on as Pooh & Piglet have the same run cycles as Lupin & Jigen.

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4d1goj

In short.

Stiff and stilted = Proto Disney Japan (TMS Studio 4)
Fluid and lively = Telecom (TMS Studio 3)

And to prove my point.

1.That was brought up in this year's G20, thats how much of a issue this is.
2.That was not the point, the point was that TMS was very expensive and that they were treated like human beens.
3.My parents had no interest in animation, all they know was that I was watching high class shows and what I tended to watch at 5 were old Looney Tunes (Sunset and post 48) shorts and Tiny Toons reruns on Nick.
>>
>>94019569
There is a difference, I'll give the devil his due. The problem is that it didn't happen enough, and in the grand scheme of things. TMS were not really much better than their contemporaries upon critical glance. Outsourcing or no.

And Rescue Rangers' stiff animation was an overall problem. I think we made that abundantly clear when that thread was around.

>>94019760
1. I'm glad you see that it's an issue, the problem is that I need more credible sources.
2. doesn't matter, Fami. And besides, I believe companies like WB had a set per-episode budget. Didn't matter who the hell was animating.
3. I wasn't talking about that, I was meaning "what would they thing when their son gets into internet slapfights over his obesssions?" Because that's what it ultimately broils down to.

>I like the animation done Spectrum and TMS the most. I only wish TMS or Spectrum had done more episodes. But they must've been the most expensive ones to use, since their animation was the best.

Due to that TMS was being paid more then the Korean studios used by Warner Bros at the time it's why TMS & Spectrum were only used on a few episodes compared to the but loads of episodes they ditched to Korea.
