Why did anime go to shit? What happened?

Lower expectations. They realised the could spoon-feed the average anime consumer elephant dung, and they'd eat it anyway.

>>36895189
Flash animation ruins a lot of shit.

>>36895189
Creative bankruptcy
Laziness
Overused tropes
There are a couple of enjoyable shows every season, a memorable one once in a while and the rest is generic stuff or meme material.

You cherry picked on shit screenshot from dbs, kill yourself faggot.

moeshit, ecchishit, haremshit and isekaishit ruined everything

Straight males. Now the emphasis is always on cute girls before anything else.

>>36895189
anime was already shit anon but you eat it up because you were a teenager
you just grew up

finally

More specifically, straight male otakus who spend money on buying cute girl merchandise, which leads anime studios to make anime that panders to those audiences to make easy money.

The Dragonball series ended a very long time ago. What remains is thoughtless money milking.

>cherry picked

Super is full of garbage like this, plebshit.

Why does /a/ always fall for the close up of background meme?

I've went there twice in my life. First time the thread for the anime I wanted to talk about was full of fujoshis.
Second time around I see an image similar to OP's and it got about 200 (You)s, all taking the obvious bait seriously.
Never returned after that.

I've seen more sensible posts on /v/ fighting game threads, and that's seriously saying something considering they're all 16 year olds who can't successfully DP 50% of the time.
