But... what is 'Western' standards?
>>143335585No boobs, all female characters must be plain
>>143335585Creativity, unique designs and not solely going for realism like how anime stars only human or human like characters in schools in one of two genres
>>143335585Ugly, flat, disgusting looking characters that look like they were made using only the shape tools from MS paint becauses their entire purpose is being cheap and generic.
>>143335651>Creativity, unique designsmaybe 20 years ago but now modern media literally crips from anime
>>143335680But enough about anime and its after effects slideshows
>>143335706even the cheapest looking bargain bin isekaishit slideshow anime looks far better than shit like those endless 'adult' rick and morty bootlegs.
Bleach and Naruto are both extremely Western. I don't know why they platformed this literal who anyways.
>>143335585Well let's read the article together and find o->boundingintocomicslol never fucking mind
For the minority who isn't into spinning fanfiction off headlines and actually wonders what the guy said:>“We don’t make characters smoke in order to take some series overseas,” he continued. “We have to make the violence a little less violent, and avoid sexy expressions. If Japanese animation is bound by such restrictions on expression, there is no way that people overseas will want to watch it.”
Unpopular opinion. Majority of anime character design is trash in comparison to western animation.Majorly evident with their furry designs where female furry characters have to look like human women with face-paint and animal ears.

>>143335651The absolute most creative scenarios I've seen in animation come mostly from anime. Are you from an opposite world?
>>143335585Naruto/Boruto doesn't exist
>>143335585DEI, marxism, censorship, lack of creativoty, destructionism and whatever shitty cool aid white bitches are drinking.
Trigger had to fight CDProject on keeping Rebecca in Cyberpunk just because she looked like a hot teenage girl instead of an old woman
>>143335585>tfw there straight up isn't a western equivalent to naruto or bleachwhy did the west abandon teenage boys?
>>143335871>The absolute most creative scenarios I've seen in animation come mostly from animeDon’t make me laugh LOLAnime is noted for its realism and stylized plots and scenarios that get recycled. I couldn’t name a single anime in the medium’s entire history that could be creative even over a Dr Seuss adaption let alone I actually dare you to say some generic anime like “Bleach” is more creative then Fleischer era content so I can laugh at you
>>143335651When was last time western cartoons had a memorable character design? Ladybug?
>>143335585More blacks, gays, and ugly women
>>143335997It's not politics as much as it is straight up forgetting that they're a vital market. Video games never forgot, and now there's a common language all men under 45 share that you can trace from Mario to Jason Brody.
>>143336029Satoshi Kon alone uses color more creatively than almost any animator ever in the west.
>>143335585He means they should follow the ESG rules made by Blackrock so they can get more funding
>>143336034>Medium can be literally any designs or made up entity, which even recent shit Nick shows have >”Creative” design just means underage human girl in provocative posesWeebs everybody
>>143335585>But... what is 'Western' standards?
>>143335585Simpering menStronk femalesAsspullsNo nuanceSimplistic plotsMustache-twirler evilNo room for greyGlorified toy commercials
>>143336341The Simpsons warned us years ago, as did South Park, about mankinds greatest threat:Middle aged white women who want there to be no violence or sex.My solution is to kill all women at age 27.Thank you everyone, thank you, I will accept my Nobel Peace Prize in the mail, today, Wednesday, thank you.
>>143336373You just described anime LOL
>>143336373Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Stardust Crusaders
>>143335886I haven’t seen this image in years. I suddenly remembered the Mexican edgelord sasuke poster on /a/
>>143336029>Fleischer era content you mean stuff like simbad, aladdin and snow white who are taken from books?because Fleischer is known for innovative animation techniques, not whatever the fuck you are implying.
>>143336412Hey you happen to be right, but let's compare.>Simpering menUsually at least twinks with abs in the East, fatboys like Steven in the west.>Stronk femalesUsually women with abs and huge tits, and massive muscle asses that accentuate their tight waistline.>AsspullsOk true, this is just an anime staple, there has never been a single moment in any anime fight where there isn't some "Power boosts in the field of battle where it cannot in training." moment.>No nuanceHere and there.>Simplistic plotsActually the west is indeed more guilty of this.>Mustache-twirler evilThis is based though, and I'm tired of people saying it isn't.Anyway the point is we need sex.Women owe me sex.
>>143335871I guess so, in my world every anime looks the same because of all the bugmen being chained to their desks being forced to draw the same face on every single character to meet the weekly deadlines and digitally animate little cubes shooting out of the ground whenever they explode something with their colorful laser beams.
>>143336373>No room for greywestern media has been completely fucking obsessed with "grey morality" since the 90s and it has always been shit anon what the fuck are you talking about
>>143336462>You mean stuff like simbad, aladdin and snow white who are taken from books?No???I know you’re just trying to talk out of your ass as a defense cope but you know shit about animation you’d knows what’s being referred to there
>>143335616Sakura?
>>143336696Isn't she the 2nd most hated woman in anime or something, barely beating out Monkima because some men have zero self respect and would fuck a mass murdering piece of garbage?
>>143336565Well then, I am glad we are not living in your world.
>>143335585Westbros.. how can we recover?
>>143336749Who is the first?
>>143335699>maybe 20 years agoNah. Not even then. The fact that anime was born from Steamboat Willie shows that anime was a mistake too.
>>143336468>Women owe me sex.If you can't get it naturally, that's your fault.
>>143335733>Bleach and Naruto are both extremely WesternThe only good anime, with some exceptions from Miyazaki, is that which appeals to Western sensibly/themes/aesthetics.
>>143335729damn, your tastes are complete shit

Should I buy all the Ultimate Ninja Storm games for $30 or rewatch Haruhi annd Ouran Host Club?
>>143335616And female characters are far more prominent/relevant
>>143335585Fuck off BoundingIntoComics, no one likes you
>>143335733>This anime about fucking ninjas is extremely western
>>143335997There are only two demographics studios care about now. Toddlers and 20 somethings. That's it
>>143336993>meanwhile me enjoying mushishi, pin-pong and mononokeYeah I am glad you are wrong kek.
>>143335585The real answer is forever regurgitating the same tired IPs with small variations instead of being built on top of an industry built to pump out smash IPs one after another like the Manga industry. The anime industry has rigged the race meanwhile the western industry has sawed off both its feet.
>>143336412Yeah it's crazy how much anime gets a pass for the same anti-traditional crap that is called woke if western
>>143335585There's 2, maybe 3 good anime to have ever been produced. The rest is dogshit and you favela monkeys should fuck off to your containment board.
>>143337141When you don't persecute the standard, the standard is more likely to embrace the fringe.
>>143337162That's more than 0 which is the number of good cartoons kek.
>>143337175>decides to spend his time on cartoon board anywayGuess even you don't believe this KEK
>>143337141Joseph Joestar in drag as a disguise is bad because it's too unmanly?
>>143335808That quote unironically makes it worse and weebs wonder why no one actually takes anime seriously outside of the occasional Miyazaki film.
>>1433371911.It's a comics and cartoons board2. Many people use it just as a nostalgia board
>>143337234>actually defending itdo weebs really?
>>143335616Don't forget black people everywhere, and girlboss mary sues. And if you don't like it, you're a "LE TOXIC FANBASE."
>>143337322Thank God it's that way. I hope the west will never take anime seriously and I am grateful for that.
>>143335733>anime about ninjas in a world based on feudal Japan is extremely WesternWhat the fuck am I reading?
Probably mean less gay shit and less token characters and less pseudo-lore that ultimately goes nowhere
>>143336781Mannish looking angry roastie vs friendly fusion of school/party girl archetype. Come on, is that picture supposed to give me anti anime feelings? Because it's doing the opposite. I want escapism and fairy tales not dyke bitch talking about nigger rights. Now seethe and cope for you'll NEVER give me anything as wholesome that isn't partially disguised aa literal cuck shit.
>>143337401>anime>less gay shitMy nigga even good "trad" anime/manga like Berserk has literal gay shit in it
>>143337417We get it, you probably enjoy crayon drawings by 5 year olds as well
>>143336781Post something modern
>>143335729>even the cheapest looking bargain bin isekaishit slideshow anime looks far better
>>143335585Eat jelly filled donuts
>>143337322>no one takes anime seriously>implying anyone takes comics and cartoons seriously>implying companies don't take profits seriously
>>143337501Top only sells due to infantilization of the masses + being easier to follow. It's more cartoony than most western fictional premises.
>>143337322Remember when nobody took comics seriously and thought it's for children?...oh wait they still do but now they think every comic should cater to trannies and darkies and cucks and dykes and.
>>143335585Pierrot didn’t even faithfully adapt every single thing Kishitmoto and Kubo wrote and draw. Their anime only filler material was hot garbage. The actual animators in the anime industry are hacks and carried by the manga artists
>>143337401>less gay shitLiterally the OP is about the studio that did Naruto. The OP image is Naruto. The first fucking arc in Naruto had gay shit. Come on now, anon.
>>143337426NTA but you right. Anime is just as gay as western cartoons.
>>143337514I can't take this post seriously when this board has people who obsess over shows made for literal toddlers.
>>143337482
>>143335585>boundingintocomicsWho the fuck seriously reads this shitty culture war blog? Every "article" is a few lines of whatever news the author saw on twitter followed by a long rant filled with buzzwords. Always the same kind of engagement bait and SEO word salad.
hey wait this is just a shitty thread from /a/
>>143337426The gay stuff in anime is tolerable because it's either played as a joke or they make an effort to make it cute or sexy. Homo stuff in comics is pandering to high BMI women, and never funny
I don't think any website seethes as much about the west as 4chan while simultaneously being all about "preserving the west", it's pretty funny
>>143337546I find this line of reasoning weird when 95% of anime's popularity is because of shonen.
>>143335585keep playing dumb, you know what they mean. just look at the pokemon go avatars to get an idea of what garbage they're talking about
>>143337585Shonen is not comparable to literal toddler shows made for 3 year olds.
>>143337575>The gay stuff in anime is tolerableIt really isn't. If anything, it's worse because it's exaggerated and more annoying. In comics it's usually played straight. The gay shit that is the most cancerous in comics takes a page out of manga/anime and makes it into a song and dance.Shit like pic related takes a page out of manga's book except you're right that it's usually even more out of place since manga has mastered their gay crowd better and has specific genres for that.
>>143337537There are plenty of anime original that are fantastic and naruto and bleach are trash anyways.
>>143337621>In comics it's usually played straightRight, that's a bad thing.In most anime the gay shit is a joke.In comics and cartoons the gay shit is there because white people want to preach to me about gays.
>>143337426There’s this really bizarre subset of weebs, particularly on 4chan, who has this consistent approach of being really into culture war shit, and usually being homophobic and white race purist. This is despite anime/manga being known as one of the most openly gay mediums on the planet (trannies and yaoi/yuri is insanely common and basically mainstream even in films, while the Japanese themselves are brown) and if brought up they excuse it with “it’s all mocking them” or “but it’s so subtle” or my favorite “but in the 40s they were honorary Aryan”It’s very interesting to read
>>143337514>no one takes them seriously>counterexample>they only take them seriously because they are dumbSo every anime that is not taken seriously is to intelligent for the masses? Based. Thank you for confirming it. Also go easy on your ad populum.
>>143337447I'm sorry for you. You actually think art that isn't hyper realistic is trash?. Art is in the eyes of the beholder. Art is supposed to convey a message so when I saw those two pieces of art, I merely pointed out what I feel they try to express and externalised it. is it really my fault that you can't stand that some see what I see and choose fantasy over realism.
>>143337665Bro, most anime fans, even on 4chan, are non-white.The fuck are you smoking?
>>143337652>homophobic AND brownpick a struggle lmao
>>143337652>In most anime the gay shit is a joke.It's not a joke, they just turn it into a parade. In comics Iceman is gay and that's that. It's rarely central to the story. In anime a character is gay and you could pinpoint it from 2000 miles away.>In comics and cartoons the gay shit is there because white people want to preach to me about gaysYeah and in Japan it's because of the authors' fetishes. When it comes to sexualizing men in particular, no one does it better than Japan.
>>143337694Nigger, most brown people hate gays, are you fucking stupid?
>>143337665Yeah but I think it's sad how so called trad larpers are busy constantly shitting on anything western/american/european all the time.I get that 4chan is inherently a weeb space but this sort of seethe should be contained to its appropriate boards.
>>143337698>In anime a character is gay and you could pinpoint it from 2000 miles away.Yes, and that's the joke.Only white people try to preach to me about muh hecking gays to such an insane degree.Preaching to me automatically makes you worse.
you will never be japanese
>>143337141There is a difference between using it for comedy and taking the topic seriously.
>>143337673>You actually think art that isn't hyper realistic is trash?No. But I also don't think Japan has produced art that is as great as that which Europe and by extension America has produced. And anime, in all its samey-ness and very particular aesthetics, is certainly not one such example.
>>143337726>i-it's just a prank broSame ends in both scenarios. There's gay shit on the page. Don't get me wrong, if you prefer anime/manga I think that's fine, but to assume it's an exclusively hetero type of hobby is insane.I can guarantee you anime is more popular among the LGBT crowd than cartoons or comics are. Anime right now is popular in general.
>>143337694nta but Ok. Brown. Fuck faggots. And honestly just fuck whites and blacks. Fuck anyone not brown desu. And no, jews are good in my books.
>>143337751Deku, Tanjiro, Naruto, Kenshiro, etc. crying is taken very seriously and not played for comedy. I love this pathetic cope so much.
>>143337776>Same ends in both scenariosNo, not really, one is preaching to me, one is a joke.White people pretending this is the same is why no one likes you, you're weasely, just like Jews.
Less black people I guess? Less obnoxious "experimental" shit like the Adventure Time staff did in the last few seasons
>>143337322I think you're confused, everyone takes manga and anime seriously, while everyone continues to make fun of Western animation and comics, to the point that they continue to make fun of it at the Oscars every chance they get.
>WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH PEOPLE FIND IT WEIRD THAT WE SEXUALIZE THE FUCK OUT OF 12 YEAR OLDSWhy are the Japanese like this?
>>143337786>Teenaged boys crying because someone they care about died/was horribly injured is the same as being a literal faggotThis is getting sad now.
>>143337788Except it's still gay regardless if it's presented in a more humorous/flamboyant fashion. In fact, there is more attention drawn to it that way. And it's often genuine gayness too, not just played for laughs.And yes, I'm well aware of your disdain for whites and the west in general. What I don't get is why you don't concentrate that in your containment boards.
>>143337786It's Japanese comedy, making fun of any man who acts minimally feminine, you wouldn't understand it.
>>143337821Yes, gayness as a joke highlights gayness.Thank you captain obvious.This is like trying to say that Drawn Together is the same as Glee.Aren't you supposed to be some kind of master race?How are you so stupid?
>thread is still up>op doesn't even have a slightest bit of comics or cartoons have the jannies and mods given up with this place or something?
>>143337616retard
>>143337831>Yes, gayness as a joke highlights gayness.And how is that a good thing?
>>143337840Death Battle brought in a few weebs who are extremely resentful of anything outside their little hobby so they have to throw gigantic tantrums for not being on the correct board.It's like if I went to /o/ and started seething about how it's not cooking related.
>>143337849Because it's a joke.Seriously, are all white people this stupid nowadays?When South Park had that episode where Ike was fucking his teacher were you one of those dumbfucks who thought they were endorsing it and not making fun of the people who think that shit's okay?
>>143337720I only rightfully shit on western capeshit. I like european comics and some western toons(mostly from my childhood)
>>143337873>Because it's a joke.It isn't. Keep seething about white people and le colonial west. You inherited an already cancerous board and made it even more gay than it was.
>>143337665But it is mockery you retard. You're so fuckin up your ass you can't even compute a society having different cultural morals. Even the nazs cross dressed as a joke but we all know which books they burned. The Greeks liked femboys yet being the bottom was looked down at with disgust. in muslim countries they beat your ass but the men are very open and touchy with other men. Cheek kissing your friend is completely normal but for westernoids such as yourself you'll be screaming "HAAAH GAAY" if you saw it on the streets.
>>143337793>everyone takes manga and anime seriously,No they don't, its sales are mostly tied up in a few popular shonen titles and its awards in western media are confined to one studio.
>>143337894What a cope, no wonder all your media is dying when you're this stupid and delusional.
>>143337914>your media is dyingYou will never be japanese anon.
>>143335585Awful rehashes/reboots made by people who either have no respect for the source material or have a disturbing obsession with making it different. They'll put more effort into damage controlling and antagonizing old fans on twitterModern cartoons are either made for toddlers or female and gay 20somethings. I would kill for more action shows.
This is a raid thread. Here's proof.>>>/a/265826707OP, as well as the "mods" and "janitors" defending this cancer both need, and deserve to be doxxed, hunted down, and murdered for being colossal faggots.
>>143337893You're a faggot loser who has to come to a half-dead cartoon board to express his insecurities about mediums that you don't even have an interest in.That's like if I went to /mlp/ and started throwing little fits to no avail whatsoever. I genuinely don't care what you like and dislike and if I'm lucky, our tastes differ as is.
>>143337914Dying or not, I don't give a fuck about *your* media. Whether you get over it or not, I don't care.But you'll need to embrace the fact that others may not care either, since you're clearly desperate for approval.
>>143337927I'm not white either, so again, YOUR media is dying.
>>143337937Do /a/fags want validation? Why bother doing this?
>>143337958>Dying or not, I don't give a fuck about *your* media.And thank god for that, last thing we need is more white cancer infesting media I like.You've proven that YOU are the destroyers of media.
>>143335970I still find it funny that 2077 only had two attractive female characters max and almost no sex appeal and a game who's premise is literally based on degeneracy.People in Cyberpunk get surgery like they're bandaids and so far nothing above an A-cup in that game. But I guess that's what happens when you let California make your game.
>>143337975Wipipo invented the only media that has universal acclaim dating back centuries but whatever helps you cope.
>>143337959>I'm not white either,You're an /a/fag anon so I kinda figured.
>>143335997Danny Phantom is western Bleach
>>143338002>WipipoYou mean Jews?Are they white now?
>>143337938>a half-dead cartoon boardEh, most cartoon forums are pretty slow so I wouldn't say "dead" but rather on par with the other. >mediums The plural of medium is media.> that you don't even have an interest in.I just said I have some interest in them, even if most of it is out of nostalgia.>That's like if I went to /mlp/ and started throwing little fits to no avail whatsoever.The ponyfags would deserve it.
>>143338024No, historylet, but by all means keep infesting white nations while crying about how the jews have ruined them.
>>143338048>NoSo why do you keep trying to take credit for what they've done as if they were white?
>>143338041>The plural of medium is media.Isn't English an evil white colonizer language? Why are you versed in it?You're a ponyfag in denial and you're on /v/ trying to discuss ponies. It just doesn't jibe. I'm sure your death battle autism was fun while it lasted but at this point you've overstayed your welcome.
>>143338072Because no one has done that. On the other hand, you clearly let them live in your mind rent free for daring to accomplish more than your people have.
Why do /a/fags come to /co/ but I never see /co/fags act like fags in /a/?
>>143337753>>143337753Comparing an entire continent and The third largest country with the biggest economy in ghe world with a small ass island while ignoring the evolution of anime since its conception is quite a madlad move.
>>143335585>Japanese studio president talking about weeaboo demands on anime studiosSure is >>>/a/ in here
>>143338018they are literally nothing alike outside of having ghost. It's like calling adventure time a Berserk equivalent
>>143337938>You're a faggot loser
>>143338107Because they're that insecure. It's not enough that they have several boards for their perverted "art" but they want to nipponify any kind of other art as well.
>>143337753Yeah post me a western animated movies like the ones Kon or Chiaki or Oshii has produced. Wait... you can't.
>>143338107because weebs are garbage people through and through
Capeshit comics are so fucking bad, I can't fathom anyone intelligent caring about that dumpster fire.>>143338107They don't have enough /co/fags to do that.
>>143337937>anime fags admitting they can't into literatureSad
>>143338138No one knows or cares what those are.
>>143338135Manga walked so shit like this can run. You cannot beat the Japanese when it comes to genres like bara or yaoi.And if anything, you should be popping champagne bottles that western characters are gay since you hate whipipo that much.
>>143338107Lol ,lmao even. There have been plenty of them doing that
>>143338165Based if true. Fuck those uppity chinks.
>>143338018Danny Phantom is a poor man’s Yu Yu Hakusho

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ih_pdsC75LkNot even capeshit fans care about comics lmao.
>>143338107Because /a/ has like double the traffic of /co/, and all /co/ shitposting gets insta-deleted on /a/ since mods care about that board.Also doesn't help that /co/ media has lost an enormous chunk of its male audience, and thus become less relevant.
>>143338107Every time they try they get destroyed. Not enough trolling knowledge.
>>143338196Key word: universal. I guarantee you there's cultures whose media you know jack shit about.
>>143335585>Naruto>BleachLiterally trash aside from maybe 2 seasons of Bleach
>>143338107Because it's a power move. If a co fag comes to /a/ they get demolished. Tjeir only chance to survive is to disguise and play along. While /a/ chuds can make your whole board seethe with one sentence.
>>143335808The problem this man is going to run into is the fact that most "westerners" out grow the types of tropes that appeal to the Japanese audience. Most people find fanservice with teens weird after a certain age. The social climate is changing and I don't think /a/ is prepared for it.
>>143338270A hobo can make a fine dining establishment seethe too by walking in with his shit/piss stains, doesn't mean much.The fact that /a/ cucks are pathetic enough to not care about a medium but still discuss it tells me all I need to know.
>>143337873This board is full of the ""people"" who think that shit is okay
>>143335585What comic or cartoon is this thread about, OP?
>>143335997Ben 10?
>>143338222Changing the goal post. lol the westcuck can't get the gist LOL. Are jews white or brown?

Most people find fanservice with teens weird after a certain age. The social climate is changing and I don't think /a/ is prepared for it.That’s the good thing about if you don’t want ecchi shit it’s not impossible to find one that doesn’t focus on it hell Yu Yu Hakusho is good example it’s not Pervy.You got crime,mystery,meccha,basketball,boxing,cooking.
>>143338307Anon, we both know /co/ isn't a fine dining establishment.
>>143338361>this retard thinks jews invented cinema and literature
/a/ btfos /co//lit/ btfos /a/
>>143335585I'm so tired of East vs West threads.>inb4 "why did you walk into this thread then"I don't think Japanese media should cater to americans and neither should european comics nor american comics to the previous two. this whole "modern global audiences" thing is shit, western media in fact has lost a lot of quality trying to appeal with China. All should just play on their strengths.
>>143338352>Ben 10?I love the series but there’s only so many times you can watch it UAF animation(how things move) suck compared to Omniverse.Gwen and Kevin can’t fight to save their lives getting one shot too
>>143338307It also helps that /a/ is quite honestly the worst place you could ever go to discuss anime, in the same way /v/ is the worst place to go for video games. /co/ is a good deal better than being the worst.
>>143338307Shitposting is the Dna of the site. How much does it cost me to shitpost about stuff I don't even know? That's right. 0.
>>143338392Compared to the type of /a/ fags who come here it really is. It's like a second class citizen trying to get into a table with reservations. I can't put into words how childish this is.
>>143335585>But... what is 'Western' standards?Over-emphasis on symbolic intent, messaging, market trends, etc. Japan operates on sink-or-swim tactics and lets almost anything fly as long as it has potential, even if it's unoriginal and derivative of something else that's currently on the market. That's why you can have dozens of currently running battle shounen series about high schoolers fighting supernatural spirits, which sounds fucking awful on paper, but in practice each of them is bringing something different to the table and succeeding in different ways. In America, if you showed up to a comic publisher saying, "I want you to publish my comic about a team of superheroes who fight villains" they'd tell you to fuck off.
>>143338370Most anime doesn't focus on it but its almost always there anyway, I am just not a fan of tropes in japanese media and you don't avoid those by swapping genres. Sports animes still have episode long recaps, long ass internal monologues and flashbacks to shit that happened 2 episodes ago.
>>143338423Oh god no, /co/ is like the only board where I would say the average poster has shit taste in everything.Retards here like shitty capeshit movies, shitty Ubisoft games, shitty generic anime, shitty music, it's the one board where most people have universally dogshit taste.
>>143338425>everything is solved by hugs and talking about "feelings".Steven universe
>>143338413It's some pinoy faggot pushing this shit. It's not that "the west" hates anime, it's a handful of mentally ill anime fags who really want anime to be disliked by everyone on /co/.
>>143338474>mentally ill anime fags who really want anime to be disliked by everyone on /co/.This is so god damn stupid.I've seriously been pondering why all this time these mentally ill people want this to happen when in the old days of the 80s and 90s, any non-anglo country had both cartoons and anime and both were well-beloved simultaneously.
>>143338464Oh, I forgot. All men are fat, stupid, useless, or needs to be protected by lesbians.
>>143338307The hobo get kicked out but not before he gets his ass KICKED out. The fine dining establishment here will be /a/ Co/fags like to pretend their west shit is some fine fine art when the most popular they have introduced to normies is capeshit. While simultaneously shittin on anime for being "le pedo" cartoon and some retarded shit like that.
>>143338508I had absolutely zero issue with anime previous to these retards shitting up /co/. It wasn't necessarily my cup of coffee but I had a tolerance for it. But weebs really are a fandom that goes above and beyond to ensure it is the most autistic, to the point where brownies, furries, capeshitters, starshitters and everyone else seems fine in comparison.
>>143337893>I like european comics
>>143338524The gateway and stopping point for most anime fans is shonen, so why are you acting so high and mighty? You're arguing some hypothetical straw man.
>>143338545I wonder if it's just a redflag shitposter group, similar to the old-days /b/ shitposters. A form of raid + psyop to stir shit between /co/ and /a/.>>143338558NTA but Lucky Luke is good.
>>143338524Capeshitters aren't even as half as autistic as weebs.>Co/fags like to pretend their west shit is some fine fine art when the most popular they have introduced to normies is capeshitJust because we're on /co/ doesn't mean this is the only media the west has introduced to the world, unless you also want to explain how your kawaii desu anime is somehow better than all of western media which would just be laughable.
"Western sensibilities" these days just means gay and boring.
>>143337665they don't watch anime because they love japan, they watch anime because they hate america
>>143338508>80s and 90s, any non-anglo country had both cartoons and anime and both were well-beloved simultaneously.Well we've departed from that point and a lot of cartoons tried to go for serialization and back in the old days of /co/ when atla was released there was a lot of shitposting of cartoon fans acting like their thing is better than anime which lead to further wars and blah blah blah.
>>143338592NTA but why is it always just the kawaii desu angle?Why is it never the cool shit like GaoGaiGar or Outlaw Star or Casshern?
>>143337786>>143337786>deku His crying is ridiculed by fans. He is a crybaby, everyone knows it.>tanjiroHis entire family was murdered except for his sister who got turned into a demon and mindbroken. The only times he's legitimately cried was during that moment, and when he thought she was dead and his whole journey was for nothing.>NarutoDebatable. He does cry a lot, but it's usually related to a legitimately traumatizing childhood or the deaths of his comrades.>kenshiroDunno, never seen itI have no stakes in this argument, I'm just clarifying
>>143338592>Just because we're on /co/ doesn't mean this is the only media the west has introduced to the world, unless you also want to explain how your kawaii desu anime is somehow better than all of western media which would just be laughable.That is unprovable but I do think lotgh is better than any cartoon the west has produced.
>>143338629Your autism retroactively makes this shit look bad. In order for a person to extract any enjoyment out of manga/anime they need to ignore the otaku fanbase as best they can.
>143338524trying too hard
>>143338660Honestly, I mostly notice this issue with american culture warriors, of any hobby not just comics nor anime. It's really tiresome, I miss when we just could discuss cool shit online but centralization + ease of access really ruined honest discourse.
>>143338660Do you see the irony of saying this on /co/?I don't think you understand that most people see your average cartoon fanbase as being on the same level as an otaku-filled anime fanbase.
>>143338684It's really, really stupid. Hard to believe it's adults sitting behind it.>>143338687The fact that it's on /co/ ought to tell you how embarrassing it is. Certain hobby boards on 4chan really give it an infantile image.
>>143338450There are more genres with more tropes than there are in western animation. I can name plenty of anime that will never have equivalents in western animation. Something like Texhnolyze will never me made in the west. The thing has always been than even if only 10% of both western and eastern animation is good, the east has more variety and more quantity in that 10%.
>>143338713>Certain hobby boards on 4chan really give it an infantile imageAgain, the irony of saying this on /co/ is palpable.
>>143338713>Hard to believe it's adults sitting behind it.Honestly, I believe it's all middle school to early college boys trying to shit up the place for fun, and not actual adults. I think the old userbase I sometimes miss just moved on from this site and it sucks because this is the only place to discuss anything anymore, as forums are dead and Reddit blows. I can't even go "HAHA GUYS IMAGINE IF BATMAN MET KAMEN RIDER 1, HOW WOULD IT GO DOWN SINCE KR KILLS HIS CYBORG ENEMIES" because it'll turn into a shitshow of a culture war and not genuine discussion on how Batman's rules would apply to people turned into cyborgs that are beyond saving or anything like that.
>>143338728>There are more genres with more tropes than there are in western animation.you don't know anything about anything
>>143338395>cinemahttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews_in_the_history_of_American_film>literature Holy shit you really are a wild one. Ever heard of sumer?.Never mind ANY OF THAT. just tell us, are Jews brown or white?.

That's your concern since you already said you hate white people so presumably any eventual hatred you have for jews is predicated on that.

>>143338756>>143338778Not to mention it's always dishonest comparisons between Batman and Goku, who are apples and oranges) to stir shit instead of actual capeshit comparisons on both sides. Besides the obvious Supes meeting Saitama (has that even ever been discused?) there could be something like Justice League or Avengers meeting Science Ninja Team Gatchaman (G-Force/Battle of the Planets) or Wonder Woman x PreCure. Any interesting or fun concept that doesn't devolve into "HAHA GOKU KILL BATMAN DON'T".
This is weebs actually believe>>>/a/265830975
>>143338842He's not wrong, westerners love that "turn the other cheek" cuck shit.
>>143338818To what? XRA is a good show but it's not an equivalent to any of these. It's an absurdist comedy(which is a big thing since most western adult shows are comedies). You literally can't argue with me since japan has been making these kinds of anime since the 70s. There is such a huge backlog of them that the west will be able to catch up only in a decade at minimum.
>>143338829Why them? Didn't Goku fight Superman?
>>143338842>East vs West thread has almost 500 repliesBut I thought the epin trad nipponese board had the best moderation and least baited users in the world?

>>143335585Those anime have the same studio? I never knew.
>>143338888That's not an east vs. west thread, it's an east >>> west thread.In order for it to be a vs. thread you'd need someone who thinks the west is better, and no one on /a/ truly believes that.
>>143338898So you don't have an actual answer? ok I guess.
>>143338888checked, also the reason /a/ is so easily baited is BECAUSE the moderation is so strict. it's an eternal daycare.
>>143338877Only in fan art, didn't he?>why themGatchaman are a cool super hero group but one that doesn't have any qualms about breaking the necks of Galactor footsolders on a constant basis. The only reason they don't snap Berg Katze is because he always manages to cheap trick his way out. E28 of the original show for example, Ken/Gatchaman is very angry he couldn't finish the job and kill Berg Katze on the spot, as he fucker just warped away.I think it'd bring an interesting angle with JL who are usually more keen on arresting their foes unless they're galactic-level threats.
>>143338842It's probably a troll, I doubt even hardcore weebs are that dumb.
>>143337044yes,ninjas are popular in the west.

>>143338829I would like to see the level 5 eps from toaru interacting with x-men.
>>143338948Which one? I ask because PreCure as early as Futari wa always had them fist fighting and avoiding stock footage like other magical girl shows as much as possible for their battles. They've been inconsistent about it after HeartCatch but they've tried to still have actual fighting since it's paired with Super Hero Time (Super Sentai and Kamen Rider).Parents have always complained about this since Futari wa Pretty Cure, though, because Cure Black punching "can be mimicked by little girls".

He's not wrong, most stuff made with the west in mind these days is extremely fucking boring.
>>143339045you are wrong

>>143338819The thing with innovation is that it is not a stale set in stone accomplishment. Ever heard the term "standing on the shoulders of giants". Every great inventor on history understands that the accomplishments of their predecessors helped shape the path they took today.

You slimy bastard, can't even argue in good faith>>143338048 I don't even know which anon you think I am but I made no comment against whitey or the tribe.
>>143337358it's a pretty classic bit that we do in Western culture all the time. Denouncing that would be like denouncing Bugs Bunny or Monty Python. Are you really on /co/ shitting on Looney Tunes?
Animation was never good
>>143338842Ia he wrong?
>>143339082>but I made no comment against whiteyYeah and someone else did. Your seethe extends beyond just east vs west, it seeps into every facet of existence at this point.

>>143337141People like 90s cartoons even tho they had the same shit
>>143337141It's easy to give gays their own show (Genre even) when you come out with 99 other straight shows a year. Western Animation will never match that output. Plus if you look at yuri anime as of late, they still tend to be serious projects with their own stories with telling, while most functionary idpol cartoons are pretty questionable.

>>143338862Isn't Attack on Titan literally the biggest cuck ending in media history? And the nips loved it?
even /a/ acknowledges that shounens are kiddie shitwhat does /co/ have that can compete with your average well-regarded seinen series?
>>143338842Not true. Weeb here, I identify as a /co/mrade. That's what /a/nons believe. They don't represent every week, just like how /co/ doesn't represent every NEET.
>>143339278All I did is not consume the garbage you make.Call me when you want to make good shit again, until then, you and your culture can fuck off and die for all I care.
>>143339304Why is it wrong to acknowledge both the west and the east have produced decent animated content? There's obviously a higher precedent for that in the east but the east also can't really touch the west (or eastern parts of europe) in terms of live action cinema. To give credit where it's due is to acknowledge the truth on all fronts, not with bias.
>>143339320>Isn't Attack on Titan literally the biggest cuck ending in media history? no
>>143338975Wonderful Precure, the newest season, doesn't have traditional fistfights. Instead, they have "chase action" where they chase the monsters around for a little while before using the stock footage finisher. Now, the reason for this is because the season is themed around animals/pets, so the MOTWs are basically animals possessed by darkness. So you have the two MCs running around and telling these possessed animals to calm down and how they just want to be friends because they don't want to hurt them.The most recent episode introduced a new character who fights the monsters like how any Cure would in a previous season. The MCs don't like this, they try to stop her and say fighting is wrong and it looks like she's going to have a character arc about rejecting her violent ways.It's not a bad season but it would really benefit from not having the Precure name attached to it.
>>143339347>but the east also can't really touch the west (or eastern parts of europe) in terms of live action cinema.Even that's not true, a Korean movie just won best picture at the oscars a few years ago.
Why should i consume non white media?
>>143339266>SterileThis is a big one for me.Modern western media just feels so sterile, it's gotten to the point where I can predict the good guys and bad guys based on skin color.
>>143338562>casuals>fansBecuase capeshit is objectively inferior by any standards compared to shonen.
>>143336749Sakura was always the highest female character next to Hinata in official polls and was ranked #3 in the worldwide poll for who fans wanted a one-shot for.
>>143339379You shouldn't, stick to your own media.
>>143339347But why do you always change the subject>there are anime at a quality that western cartoons can’t touch>well actually how about la moviesThis is a pretty well known fallacy and indulging in it while acting all knowing is really sad. If I was talking anout the quality of bread in Germany compared to France and you tried to change the subject to the quality of the cherries it would be pathetic as well.
>>143335585Good, western localizers should not dictate what Americans can and can't see.
>>143339362>Now, the reason for this is because the season is themed around animals/pets, so the MOTWs are basically animals possessed by darkness. So you have the two MCs running around and telling these possessed animals to calm down and how they just want to be friends because they don't want to hurt them.Ah, so like the possessed animals in Tokyo Mew Mew.
>>143339399>objectivelykys
Anime will never be art
>>143338018>>143338115Honestly, what is the closest thing to a Bleach equivalent in the west?
>>143339329You a weeb nigga, you like chinese cartoons nigga?
>>143339364And how many more western films have won Oscars?>>143339423Because I'm not partaking in an argument. I'm trying to be fair to both sides. My reply entails as much.
>>143339362>>143339445forgot to mention that they purify the monsters by hugging them so it really does feel like a /co/ shitpost come to lifeAlso didn't they still attack the animals in TMM?
>>143339449Lead by example, would you kindly?.
>>143337621The inclusivity that people hate in comics isn't played straight it's preachy. They make the characters never truly be in the wrong and they put dumb antagonist just to be wrong and dumb at them.People can take the song and dance of a gay anime character because most the other characters have some exaggerated trait they parade around like that but no one likes being preached at specially when it comes from an industry with no moral high ground
>>143339493> I'm trying to be fair to both sides.But I am talking about animation not live action. Hell even threads on tv about art house cinema, which are the best /tv/ threads, talk a lot about well regarded japanese film makers. But in the end, Id don’t care about that. I am talking about animated series. What you are doing is trying to mask a fallacy.
I hate anime because all the popular stuff is a billion episodes of filler and powering up. I also don't find japanese humor particularly funny. I think Spy X Family was the last thing I watched that I thought was decent but even it falls into a lot of tropes I hate.
>>143339584I had a dislike for most anime except some genuine classics but these threads have put a really sour taste in my mouth when it comes to anime/manga.The unearned ego weebs have is ridiculous.
>>143339625Tbh this is me with cartoons. I hate almost all of them with a few execeptions.
>>143339584The stuff in >>143338801 is better than everything you will find in east and west animation.
Can co or a tell me show me the equivalent to the shitfest that is Spiderman and miles Morales dilemma
>>143335651>Creativity, unique designsSteven Universe, Owl House, Gravity Falls, Star vs, Owl House, The Ghost and Molly Mcgee, Amphibia, Bare Bears, Craig of the Creek, Big City Greens all look like were made by the same writer and artist.
>>143339639Right, but weebs are arrogant enough to go above and beyond just "cartoons", they criticize any art and media that isn't anime.It's not just childish but honestly a concerning precedent.There's a few capeshits and cartoons I've enjoyed. Would I rank them above, say, The Iliad? In terms of content, cultural significance, artistic merit, etc? No, because I'm not that delusional.
>>143339504Kind of, yeah, but it was mostly stock footage attacks. At least in the old TMM, I haven't seen the new one.
Buy an ad, Japan
>>143339708that's because they were made by NPCs
>>143339719I saw far more retards claiming that MCU and Marvel are "modern mythology" than anime.
>>143339719> Would I rank them above, say, The Iliad? In terms of content, cultural significance, artistic merit, etc? No, because I'm not that delusional.But I don’t see anyone weeb or not making that statement.
>>143339663I think you're missing my point.
>>143339729The Japanese, in spite of their perversion (itself being the result of cultural censorship) are a respectable people.I doubt even a single weeb on /co/ is Japanese. These are fanboy neckbeards whose primary interest is monetary competition, power level wank and shit like that.
>>143339767>But I don’t see anyone weeb or not making that statementI have.
>>143339719Dunno there is an insane cult around Stan Lee original runs claiming they are a classic or a masterpiece when it's objectively just like any popular manga in every possible way.
>>143339767I've seen people on /a/ do it constantly, always in some incredibly pretentious fashion.
>>143339773Which is what? What is your point? That you only follow what’s popular aka battle shounen? Are you dumb?
>>143339719That is some pure gaslight. Amerimutts unironically compare their jewish creation and capes to greek myths as the modern definition of the hero journey
>>143339789>>143339805Prove it. I’ve seen literally threads on /lit/ about capeshitters saying that dc and marvel are the modern equivalent of the greek myths.
/co/ will never be deleted, cope
>>143339817Are there common elements? Sure. Anime could be compared to the Illiad too. The difference is that weebs legit think their anime is better than any storytelling outside of anime, even if it's something as culturally significant or early as the Illiad.
You know, faggot shit.
>>143339847>>143339829
>>143339829There was a thread about this on /a/ and people were suggesting Sailor Moon is more important than Beowulf and Shakespeare.
>>143339847>The difference is that weebs legit think their anime is better than any storytelling outside of animeBullshit, we see capeshiters making those claims about Marvel every week, far more than anime as a whole.Marvel and Star Wars got a far more twisted cult around them than Anime ever did, those 2 fandoms are like Snyder Cultists but quite larger.
>>143335585We need to start a campaign calling for Japan to liberate us from our woke captors.
>>143335585why can't we have western kino anymore?
>>143339829That's usually a joke. When all is said and done, capeshitters overall are a lot less arrogant and delusional than weebs have become over the years.They're aware of the lousy current state of the industry. Weebs think that Demon Slayer being popular with some broccoli heads unironically means manga has surpassed any and all literature.
>>143339870>>143339873>making shit upThe thread went like this>assblasted guy gets angry and starts talking about europeqn cinema and literature>people give him examples of japanese cinema that is highly regarded>guy gets angry and ignores all of the responses and starts comparing anime with literature>people(including me) start playing along for shits and gigglesIt was a fun troll.
>>143339847Are you still in high school? I remember this was something I saw a lot of in high school back in the day. That's just a case of teenagers being retarded and trying really hard to have some kind of identity and be special.
>>143339895You're more than welcome to move and stay there. My country is neither woke nor obsessed with infantile trash. I'm an exception to the rule and even I probably come across as Randy Savage compared to the average weeb.

>>143339929Claiming Kamen Rider Kiva is a higher cinematic accomplishment than Raging Bull is inherently a joke whether one believes it or not. In that respect, yes, a lot of this is joking around.
>>143339817>t. weeb
so shitposting aside, why don't they make cartoons and comics that people actually want? You get 1-2 every couple of years but it feels like there should be way more
>>143339907>he thinks it's all trolling and none of it is genuineThere's about a million people out there right now who think Cardi B is more culturally significant than both your anime and Michelangelo's sculptures, whoever that dude is (I don't know since I was raised on the internet)
>>143339699If you're asking for the anime equivalent of peter and miles. There is none, The dynamic relationship between the two is based on bendis fetish and legacy characters. As far as I'm aware no known shonen ever tried the hero legacy shtick.
>>143339903>That's usually a jokeIt absolutely ins't, look in the archives and those comments are always serious, then look at the posts in other sites
>>143339950Better weeb than a fuckin LIAR.
>>143339829this is basically true. (It is I, /lit/faggot.) people suck off the illiad all day and night but it's just ancient greek capeshit. the people who praise it the most are the ones who have never read it. it's indistinguishable from marvel.
>>143339972There are parallels to be drawn between superhero stories and the heroes in Greek myth. There are shared archetypes. But cape media isn't as culturally or historically significant as the Illiad even if we were to look at it as a successor. Can someone enjoy comics more than the Illiad? Yes, many probably do. Doesn't really change anything. And the same goes for anime. But a lot of weebs argue in a way that suggests anime is the best media there ever was or ever will be. It's hard to agree with such a thing if you're being objective.
>>143337141A couple of slides are characters crying because the girl they like is with someone else and everyone is pretending it doesn't exist. Japanese do a lot of work based off losing gfs to other people just like the west but it gets more praise because the characters are more attractive I guess.

>>143340074All of which is present in anime too. It's called progressivism and it's a reflection of the times we live in.
>>143335585ugly and gay
>>143340093In a lot of ways it is modern mythology, except it doesn't have a cultural or ethnic tie like actual mythology did.Otherwise, in terms of plots and archetypes, there are many similarities. And again, this applies to anime as well, especially shonen.
>>143340150The only good anime is that which is based around western stories/influences/aesthetics
>>143335585>conform to western standards>collapse thriving industry
>>143339962I agree with this. This dialogue doesn't even feel natural, but what an alien might think human speech is like based on Twitter alone.
>>143340204 >>143337078
>>143340180>Because the west has NEVER been good at making cartoons that would ever entertain boys.You're reaching hard.>Boys like action, violence, blood, sexy femalesPLENTY of that in comics. And even some animation. Anime has been kicking this to the curb too. The last time this was commonplace was in the 90s. Stuff like Ninja Scroll or Genocyber is so fucking rare now it's unreal.
>>143340091No. Dragon ball is kinda wholesome. It must be the protagonist to Spiderman which is Guko. and Guko is married with kids and gets his ass kicked. And he's never replaced. His kids only take the spotlight from time to time and they too get ass kicked.No, the protagonist must absolutely be cucked in every aspect of their daily life like peter, while the guy who takes his place must never know the meaning of struggle and they must be married to their predecessor "first true true love" i think. The Op posted spider verse so I thought I'll go by that version.
You are animation illiterate
>>143340180Question, are you japanese? Because that's the only explanation I'd have for you thinking this way. There's tons of cartoons that appeal to boys.
>>143340228> PLENTY of that in comicsWestern comics usually portray action way too static
>>143340176lol name the anime with those things all at once
>>143336341>Hey, Itchy, let's talk about systemic racism and Jewish hate.
>>143340296There's woke anime that has been made. Whether it features all of this at once is a tough question but I also don't watch nearly as much anime as you do. If it was truly as based as you think it is, I'd be watching way more.
>>143339699>>143339970>>143340091>>143340256I always felt it'd be better if Peter and Miles instead of having that weird non-relationship and "Miles is completely valid and superior!" writing, it'd be better if he and Peter instead had a partnership similar to Kamen Rider 1 and Kamen Rider 2. Even have Miles have a differing name like Spider-Man Black of Spider-Man Tarantulus or something to differ him from the original.
>>143336378Women are simply tools of the Jews. Jews have been weaponizing twats for over a century. Modern American Feminism is a Jewish invention.
>japan slop needs the west declining to look goodEternal second banana
>>143340285Matter of preference. The over the top action in anime/manga can be fun but also too melodramatic/autistic. Sometimes a single bullet being shot out of a gun is enough to make a potent statement on a page.
>>143337322>>143338298I hope everyone that thinks like this dies a painful and wretched death.Please kill yourselves by burning your bodies from the feet up until you die.
>>143340276I still won't be interested in their output. Best case scenario, I simply won't consoom neither anime nor cartoons/comics. That's pretty much how it is right now. Every now and then I'll venture into some old anime/cartoons/comics because I know the likelihood of them being shit is lower.But it very much applies to anime as well.
>>143337113Blame companies like Disney they extended copyright for so long that now we need to wait nearly a hundred years for copyrights merely to START expiring.
>>143337020Faggot.
>>143338298I hadn't noticed your post but I agree. There's something dishonest and inorganic with a lot of the tropes and the "acting" in the context of manga/anime. I don't know if it's the exaggeration but it simply doesn't have the same appeal as the more subdued and authentic western attempts. As for fanservice, I don't have anything against it, although I do find a lot of anime girls oddly asexual in their presentation. Like Peni Parker, to give a western example based on japanese tropes. That to me isn't sexy in the same way a Jessica Rabbit is.
>>143340327>Even have Miles have a differing name like Spider-Man Black of Spider-Man Tarantulus or something to differ him from the original.Can we stop pretending they were ever meant to coexist?. This was never EVER The intended idea when marvel introduced ben back then and it sure as shit wasn't when they introduced miles.
>>143339895Japan is infected with Jewish woke virus. Even Nintendo's offices now require knowing about DEI and Bridge. It's really over and it's only starting over there. It will end sooner in the west because the infection and rot has been in effect longer. For Japan this hell is merely beginning.
>>143340432They weren't meant to but they have to and has to be fixed as they do. 1 and 2 weren't supposed to either because in the manga Hongo ends up dying so Ichimonji can be the only Kamen Rider but because the actor broke his legs during a stunt, Ichimonji had to be introduced too early and it ended up working as a fighting duo once the original actor got better.
>cropped bait from Bounding Into Comics
>>143340443>muh jewsWhat you're protesting against is father time, not the jews. And you've simply been left in the dust. Most of the first world has moved on.
>>143336696Hinata
>>143340326How can you make such a bold statement then instantly backtrack and claim you have little interest on the medium
>>143340430> the exaggeration but it simply doesn't have the same appeal as the more subdued and authentic western attemptsLike I said here>>143338801>>143338728There still is stuff for adult fans that simply is non existent in the west. I doubt adult would even care about adult comedies which make for most of the western adult animation.
Western Standards are Luamity waving the bisexual flag for progressive points. They're Adventure Time cucking Finn out of Fire Princess to be "subversive." Western Standards are portraying Miles Morales as a competent Spiderman and Peter Parker as an incompetent cuck past his prime. Western Standards are making white characters in Castlevania black and anti-slavery, even if the story takes place in Europe and should be about slaying Dracula.You'll know Western Standards when you see them.
>>143340228>PLENTY of that in comicsThe action in comics sucks ass and the women are only hot to old people.
>>143340501My interest is limited only compared to a weeb. I have a life outside of anime/manga/comics/cartoons. It doesn't make me illiterate on the genre.I just don't think it's nearly as praise worthy as you see it to be. If anime was made in the west you'd understand me immediately because to you this is a west vs east thing first and foremost. I'm not inherently against either side, but over time I've come to realize that a lot of anime simply has no appeal to me.
>>143335585Maybe if you read the article it will fucking tell you. Or at least get the name and other info of the guy who said it so you can search for the direct quote.God fucking dammit," What's the content of this article say? I know I'll ask random people on 4chan." And the people responding to OP are just as stupid. Couldn't figure out how to thread the needle on that so they'll just take a guess at it. Than start arguing with each other over what they head canon that the article wrote. And they think they are being insightful with their replies!
>>143340346>but also too melodramatic/autistic.That doesn't make any sense.Well-portrayed action is always better than stiff, poorly-portrayed action.
>>143340524Sounds more like you're just obsessed and hyperfocus on whatever things your deranged pet issues cannot let go of.
>>143340543>It doesn't make me illiterate on the genre.You just referred to it as a genre, so I'd say you're pretty illiterate.
>>143338002>>143338772the earliest novels are from China and Japan
>>143335585I want to see the direct quotes, because it's probably a lot more nuanced than a random headline will make it seem.
>>143340561Nah, there's a clear recurring theme with western slop. Subversion and desecration of the past without doing anything to merit the future.
White website
>>143340572What definition of a novel would that have to be in order for it to be true?And given that White people are a younger race than the asians by thousands of years doesn't that mean that them just barely getting there first look bad on them? They had such a huge head start.
>>143340526>The action in comics sucks assDepends entirely on the artist.>and the women are only hot to old peopleThat's fine, I simply don't find loli attractive. And more so than that, I hate the fact that even outside of the loli context, a lot of characters look too cutesy and anatomically gimped/dwarfish/pixar-esque. I want more anime drawn like Vampire Hunter D.
>>143340569Medium. Whatever. I've taken what I can from it. It doesn't trump western media at its peak. And that's the issue. For you it's not an issue and that's fine but I have different standards. I require more than what anime alone has to offer.
>>143335585No boobs, no violence, no lolis, nothing boundary pushing
>>143340613>Depends entirely on the artist.Nah, I don't think I've ever seen comic action that I'd call well-presented.Comic artists just suck at representing action.There's a reason people can make gifs out of action scenes in manga and have them look great but the same can't be said of comics.
It's very hard to take you weebs seriously when you're creaming your pants over this sort of QUALITY
>>143340613> Depends entirely on the artist.And that’s the problem 99% of the artists draw everything so damn stiff. Nothing will compare to Goku vs Vegeta or Joe vs Rikishii. And I also hate how the majority of heroeines in comics don’t look like your image but rather extremelly shit. The women in Vagabond are so much better.
>>143340467It's been over a decade since this character appeared and he still divides the fanbase and shits on Peter. his latest spider-men appearance is still repackaging the same shit since the ultimate universe ended. I don't know jack about kamen rider so forgive me if I thought a a power couple due spider men is as stupid as spidey and his amazing friends.
>>143340629>It doesn't trump western media at its peakIt trump's western cartoons at its peak, easily.And your race is long past its peak anyways.
>>143340629As the other anon has said it 100% trumps cartoons at its peak.
>>143339962holy buzzword, batmanwho the fuck allows this shit to be published- fuck, who the fuck WRITES this shit, a fucking AI??
>>143340632The vast majority of anime doesn't have that either anymore. Except for loli but that's kinda cringe.>No boobsIf the boobs are too cartoony it sucks.>no violenceI want detailed violence, like a Francis Bacon painting. Show me an anatomically correct torso split in half. This is too lite and the character looks silly. I don't want Happy Tree Friends, I want a live action film brought to life in animation. Make it fit the context too, don't shy away from making it grim and don't be overly fixated on making it "cool" or "funny". Make me a show that will make the mothers cry.
>>143340657>>143340686See, but cartoons are shit, a worthless medium for autistic manchildren and loser faggots, same with comics, so being better than those isn't worth bragging about.
>>143340526>The action in comics sucks ass Taking 12 issues for one fight because you're actually just storyboarding for what you hope will be an animu adaptation is just a waste of space tbqh. Comics do fights better.>and the women are only hot to old people.Because they look like adults, lolAnime and pedos are peas in a pod
>>143340077>A lot of human history is capeshit if you really break it down. A lot of media is, especially fucking anime.I see you've discovered the concept of basic tropes.
>>143340723>Francis BaconI mean Hieronymus Bosch* Bacon is more surreal but still manages to convey stronger emotion than the average slap fight in a manga.
>>143340728>No, see, having worse, shorter, and uglier fights is actually betterThis is why no one reads comics.
>>143340632>no violenceWeebs squeal and cry if they see violence. The number of threads whining about Invincible and Mortal Kombat mogging all their nipshit with cries of "blood isn't mature, only titties are mature!" is astronomical.
Both look like garbage compared to the golden age.TV was a mistake.
>>143340723> Make it fit the context too, don't shy away from making it grim and don't be overly fixated on making it "cool" or "funny". Make me a show that will make the mothers cry.Sure first provide with the answer to>>143338801
>>143335585Christian standards. They mean Christian standards. Combined with a culture of prioritizing profit over all else.
>>143340758>>No, see, having worse, longer, and uglier fights is actually betterThis is why no one reads comics (Japan) when they could just watch the animu it was storyboarding for.Thanks for not contesting that you're a pedo btw
>>143340759Invincible is not mature though.
>>143340657You keep resorting to your seethe about race which means this is clearly more of a cultural disdain than anything else. We're not talking about art, we're talking about east vs west.Despite your seething about white people I've entertained your arguments and have tried to explain why the things that appeal to you don't appeal to me and vice versa without bringing culture or race into it.You can keep thinking your shit doesn't stink but you can't convince anyone by force. They'll either agree or they won't. It's not my cup of coffee.
>>143340780>>143340728Capeshitters unironically read capeshit for the terrible dialogue and characters?Fucking eww.
>>143336056uh
>>143340801I read manga too. Are you saying it's trash?
>>143340327You'd think they would have a black young man being second bananas to a white guy? let alone having the name BLACK in his title?
>>143340799I do it because I recognize your awful attempts to troll me.So, again, your race is far past its peak, no point in clinging on to a past that you can never return to and likely never got to experience firsthand.
>>143340724Then what are you doing here :)Yes it is. A simple island trumping the rest of the world? No matter the medium or activity that is pretty damn impressive, especially when western animation/comics had a head start.
>>143340815I'm saying you have dogshit taste.Imagine unironically reading capeshit for the story.
>>143340655S'alright, and I understand, it's just ever since it became a Kamen Rider thing when usually a second Rider, seemingly more powerful or some edge would join the starring one and they'd become a battle duo after some arguing or resistance and basically become bros. I feel they COULD have done that with Miles and made him fit in the Spider-Man mythos, but they didn't want to, wanting Miles to replace Peter but won't pull that trigger either.Pic related, for example, the red one, Kamen Rider Drive, is the main character for the first third of the show, but one third in, Kamen Rider Mach is introducer. Younger, "hipper", 17 year old heart throbe dare devil popular with the ladies, the opposite to Drive's by-the-book plain policeman role. So they head bits until they acknowledge each other and becomes "brothers", with Mach calling Drive "Big Bro". It's so annoying they didn't do this given Spider-Man is no stranger to tokusatsu tropes.
>>143337044>>143337385>let's do like westerners and make a cartoon about superheroes with quirky powers! but instead of superheroes they are ninjas, death gods, pirates, bocu no heros, etc.!"lol how is this western at all"
>>143340823>let alone having the name BLACK in his title?It worked for Kamen Rider Black.
>>143340865Bro, ninja predate American superheros by literally millennia, are you retarded?And also ninja actually existed in the real world.
>>143340825How am I trolling you if I'm explaining as earnestly as I can why your medium isn't the hot shit you keep presenting it as, or at least not to me? If it was that good I'd simply agree. Some of it is good. A lot of it is awful. I'm myself first and foremost and not a weeb/capeshitter/fanboy. I don't treat these things as a religion. I either recognize something as good or I don't.And the fact that you spend hours seething about westerners and white people on a site created by one just tells me you have deeper issues than your anime vs cartoons war.If your side of the pond is so much better then be content with your supposed superiority instead of throwing a seethe for hours.
When's this gonna end?
>>143340889So long as you can admit that your peak is far behind you, that's fine.I don't really care about your opinions.
>>143340869You think you're so funny nigga?
>>143340900After bump limit of course.Buckle up, buckaroo.
>>143340847From my perspective you have dogshit taste so that means nothing to me.
>>143340906I can admit your issues extend well beyond just which leisurely activity and dumb cartoon is better, whether it be eastern or western. I think you have an inferiority complex and are autistic.
>>143340913>Funny.No joke. "Black" is cool for a name and he was the only Rider with a second series.
>>143340900Comics? I dunno probably in about 10 years or so. I don't think they have a lot of gas left in them.
>>143340723Western cartoons for kids have more mature violence than animus where the only purpose is to look cool and edgy.
>>143340950Not my cup of coffee
>>143340922Coming from a capeshitter that means less than nothing.
>>143339962>female-representingshouldn't that be "female-presenting"? as in "presenting as female"?
>>143340946>I think you have an inferiority complex and are autistic.That's ironic all things considered.You're the one who started bringing up your race when someone made fun of your preferred cartoons.
If /co/ had even 7/10 /a/ series they would make threads about them every day since the standards are even lower in western stuff
>>143340965>cool and edgy
>>143340978To be fair, Faiz's design is peak, so much even Toru Nakayama of Mega Man Zero fame drew artwork of it.
>>143336775This
>>143335585Being shit at everything.
>>143340979I don't care what it means to you. Won't make me enjoy your flavor of the month moeshit.I physically recoil at the thought of watching certain post 90s anime, in fact. It's the equivalent of reading certain modern comics, except at least I can laugh at those and make fun of them. I don't have the patience for moeshit.
>>143341013Most of the thread is some spastic weeb crying about white people existing. You just insinuated Americans are in the clear.
>>143341006How is that comparable to this?>>143340723>sword and blood is cool, grr look at me being upset and berserk and actionful
>>143341014> I physically recoil at the thought of watching certain post 90s animeYour larp is so funny when 90s had plenty of moe anime kek.
Imagine if Anime just wasn't a thing. Yeah I'm happy this timeline has Anime, I shudder to think of a world without anime and by extension, Japan's contribution.
>>143341033>>sword and blood is coolUsually yes. If you undercut it with humor it can be lame. There are such examples in capeshit too.
The problem with the west is that everyone is so insecure that you just can't criticize anything made there without someone deflecting to some other shit or calling you some kind of -ist or -cel.At least when I shit on an anime that sucks there aren't a million losers jumping out of the woodwork to call me a racist or whatever.
>>143341049And that was trash too.
>>143341014NTA but "moeshit" really was a late 00s/Early 10s thing that doesn't have the presence it had a decade ago. There's good stuff, especially on the manga side. Even then, I blame /a/ for doing nothing but bitch about moeshit instead of talking about cool stuff, I missed on Mazinkaizer Skull when it aired because none of those fuckers were talking about it, instead bitching over and over K-On. Shit's like a heavy metal cover with robots.
>>143341014Again, you're a capeshitter.That's below a troglodyte.
>>143340882and ninjas did magic spells with hand signs in real life too, right? and pirates in real life ate fruits that gave them superpowers, the main character's being exactly the same as Mr. Fantastic from Marvel.
>>143341070>the west is insecure but the east isn't, which is why a bunch of weebs have been making threads and seething for hours that western art DARES to existYeah, nah. I legitimately thought animefags were above this sort of autism but this board has been very eye opening these last few days.
Show the ip count, cowards
>>143341074Nah there are plenty of fun ones.
>>143341054I wouldn't want to erase anime because that would be censorship and that's gay and lame.Anime's fanbase for the most part can go.
>>143341110>but the east isn't, which is why a bunch of weebs have been making threads and seething for hours that western art DARES to existAnon, those weebs are all westerners.Like, by definition.
Why does the west hate power systems? No Chakra, nen, reiatsu, stands, devil fruits, pokemons, yugiohs, Ki, quirks, quinces etcDo they not understand how it appeals to the autists sensibilities?
>>143336749stfu powerfag
>>143341087There's plenty of capeshit I dislike, it's just that there's even more anime I dislike. Sauce: me having senses and having watched/read subpar manga/anime.
>>143341134Capeshit writers are too stupid to do anything right.
>>143341134Are you retarded?
>>143341156That's fine, but you're still a capeshitter.That puts you below even the cringiest, most autistic otaku faggot, since it means you're likely a faggot AND a masochist.
>>143337027Get half life for free on steam today. also yes on the Naruto Storm games. NunS2 should be played by you today.
>>143336045>>143337360>>143340524hopefully western media keep putting more black people just to spite you and making you seetheAnd it seems like Japanese folks are starting to get up to speed just to make you cry
>>143341134just a dislike of them as a story telling convention. Remember how much people bitched about midichlorians? Being able to vaguely quantify the fuel for whatever magic nonsense is going on is just not high on the priorities
>>143341175he literally said he's autistic so maybe
>>143341156Can you please answer>>143338801?
>>143341182>That's fineIt is fine. I'm not apologizing for having superior taste in art and storytelling, after all.
>>143337044See America could never pull off a character
>>143337044America could never pull off a character like Asa Mitakata.
>>143341156Capeshit is just shounenshit, they are both trash.
>>143341212I would say something about the irony of a capeshitter thinking he has good taste, but it's not ironic, all capeshitter are this delusional.
Tranime
>>143341225Capeshit is shounenshit with slightly less autistic characters, worse action, and no titties.
>>143341212>>143341182Seeing you guys fight like this, I gotta ask, and I'm being honest asking: why are americans/anglos so tribalistic? This shit you're doing is no different from american sega vs nintendo/sony vs nintendo console wars from the 90s, Nick vs Cartoon Network shit I see here, Mac vs PC, it's all "I'm right and everybody's wrong".Like, the scope has to be limited to just "me beer".
>>143341199No, because regardless of what I say, you're dishonest and you'll just insinuate it's not as good.Me entertaining your arguments and replying back and forth is a display of stupidity on my end. Not my curated preferences in media but trying to speak chinese to a person from the congo. Or rather speaking "white" to a chinese? Because wippipo bad. In any case, having fun seething about a medium you allegedly have no interest in instead of indulging in your moeshit. I guess shitposting is a better waste of time than that slop.
>>143341134Imagine a power system in dc. It just wouldn't work for characters like superman who one day can solo the omniverse and the next have trouble with lobo. Capeshit is lazy like that.
>>143337484>Posts a video proving him rightwhat did anon mean by this
>>143338370The problem (if there IS a problem, which is debatable) with that is, the kind of cringe oversexed shit you wouldn't want your mom to walk in on you watching can appear anywhere, anytime in anime. Non Non Biyori is a slice-of-life comedy about little girls in the countryside. As wholesome as a warm slice of apple pie. Until the beach episode, in which the entire cast marvels at the size of a 10-year-old's gazongas. Complete with a sparkle background and slow-pan. It's super fucking jarring, and that shit happens in a lot of different genres.I love anime. But stuff that the Japanese shrug at would never fly on television here.
>>143337141Horikoshi is gay.Guy who made Vsaga is also retarded.Isayama cucked out BECAUSE of the western audiences.Araki was joking. Men in drag used to be funny. Trump even had a commercial with a dude in drag.Zenitsu, acting the way he does is a gag, If Tanjiro did it then yes it would be seen as promoting sissyness.Miura didn't write that.Oda is such a chad he actually made Okama gay men seem cool, something actual gays CANNOT do.The Naruto Sasuke kiss was funny at the time.Togashi cannot be understood by someone who would post this image.
Third worlders ruined anime.
>>143341242There's been a weeb (maybe 2) seething about western cartoons/comics for a hot minute now. Why are they tribalistic and insecure about it? You reap what you sow.Maybe coming to a non-/a/ related board to explain why people should prefer manga/anime is a retarded idea to begin with? There's plenty of anime I like. It is a herculean task for me to not associate it with such fanboys, sadly.
>>143341255I won’t be dishonest. Name them. Name the cartoons right now. Or are you too scared? Kek, I doubt you will find even something at the level of lotgh.
>>143335651… which is only true in bizarro world.
>>143341295If I name them will you fuck off to your home board and never discuss anime here?
>>143341294Again, but it is always the anglos doing this shit. Even back in the days of forums I never saw the Italians, the Spanish or, god fucking forbid, the fucking french acting tribalistic like this. Like, everything that people percieved as "cool comics/cartoons" could be discussed regardless of country or origin.
>>143341321Sure.
>>143338298>Most people find fanservice with teens weird after a certain age.Yea, that's why everyone hates shows that show teens in sexual situations like Riverdale and Game of Thrones and fucking Euphoria.I hate when cartoonfags try to act like they're fucking normal and represent the average person.
>>143341186Case in point. Western standards are about nigger sensibilities.
>>143341285One thing's for sure, they won't make me like anime more for attacking my culture, race and interests. It's more ridiculous the more I think about it.>you weren't born asian? you don't like anime? here's an essay on why you should do both of these thingsOr how about you just indulge in your own culture and I'll indulge in mine
>>143335585Woke shitAny anti weeb discourse
>>1433413421 is sufficient. Fantastic Planet.
>>143341285>>143341373Again, this weird in-fighting was brought in by the anglos. Anime was popular elsewhere long before Pokémon and Toonami happened and there was none of this fighting "one medium is better than the other" bullshit.
>>143341187Yeah but he did that decades after everyone already had a pre established headcanon of how the force works.
>>143338801>Texhnolyzewhat is it known for? read the plot summary and seems generic as fuck.>Lotgh'Legend of the Galactic Heroes'? again seems like any generic sci-fi that westerners would do with live actors.>Staoshi Kon's moviesevery Jankovics thing>Haibane Renmeiagain, what do you want an equivalent for? philosophical series? >Kino's journeytraveling to different cultures/worlds? tons of western cartoons do that, if you also want it to be symbolic/philosophical then Mézga Family second series.>Aria the animationcartoon about Mars colonizations, or what exactly?>Ashita no Joeagain, what is this exceptional for? the animation, or the realization? according to the plot this seems like some overdramatized boxing thing.>Rose of Versaillesyou are unable to find a western historical communist leftist cartoon in this age?if you give more precise descriptions i can probably give more proper answers, or post webms or something if you want animation equivalents.
>>143341403Anglos do tend to be very insecure about their culture, that's true.
>>143341285I'd rather the third worlds take hold of it than let it slip into the hands of the west and turn it into another blackrock investment.
>>143341393Anime is more popular among "woke" people than cartoons/comics are. I can assure you of that beyond a shadow of a possible doubt.
>>143341432That's definitely not true considering the cartoon industry is literally controlled by said woke people.
>>143336696He said ALL characters, like western slop. Hinata is cup D and Tsunade is like cup J.
>>143341403Yeah fucking right. It was brought in by this pinoy faggot seething about the west thread after thread after thread.A lot of anglos love anime. Anime is normie shit.
Western animation will never die unlike comics tho.
>>143341444It's definitely true because anime has a bigger fanbase among woke people and at this point any people in general.Black people love anime, trans people love anime, everyone and their grandma has consoomed anime. Cartoons/comics are a specific niche consoomed mostly by middle aged white guys and its own fanbase is the most critical of them anyway.
>>143341452I know anime is popular among normies NOW but I'm talking 90s and 00s communities. Like old BBSs and Forums, you'd see people talking about Batman TAS, Spider-Man TAS and X-Men at the same time they discussed Slayers, Rayearth and Lodoss War without this bullshit infighting of "my cartoon is better than yours". And that's including European productions too like David the Gnome or the animated Asterix movies.
>>143341469>Black people love animeBeing black != Being wokeAre you retarded?
>>143341469>>143341444>>143341432What I notice is a lot of normalfags being into anime but at the same time denouncing it for being "problematic", like the invisible girl being nude in Boku no Pico Academy.
>>143341477>you'd see people talking about Batman TAS, Spider-Man TAS and X-Men at the same time they discussed Slayers, Rayearth and Lodoss War without this bullshit infighting of "my cartoon is better than yours"I wouldn't have an issue with that but weebs are too insecure. Death Battle was a mistake. Which is why it's best to stay on separate boards.
>>143335585Nothing the west has made in the past decade is comparable to Dragon Ball Z, even just 2 decades you’d have cartoons and movies that could compete with it in terms of quality, now there’s nothing but shitty adult comedies that keep ripping off Family Guy and South Park, god awful kids cartoons that waste their low budgets on jokes that only appeal to children and Disney movies that are more interested in pandering to leftists than telling good stories, why would anyone want to watch this shit when all the decent cartoons and animated films stopped being made years ago?
>>143341485If diversity is woke, then I can assure you the anime fanbase is more diverse than the aging white male demographic of comics.
>>143341502American weebs, which is the root of the problem I'm trying to understand. Nobody else but English speaking weebs feel the need to fight and prove their cartoons are the best and vice versa for /co/. Some have theorized is leftover hatred from Pearl Harbor, or decline of Motor City with the arrival of Nissan and Toyota or whatever. I don't know. I just notice this, alongside console warring, and PC vs Mac fighting being always an american cultural creation.
>>143341411I am in bed, not posting any of that shit. So you could only give me 2 answers? Also kek you don’t even know some of the most prestigious anime while acting like some 90s anime snob? And like I said you can’t give me an answer to lotgh.
>>143341514Anon, DBZ is literally standard capeshit. It has the same appeal. I like DBZ. It's as cape as shit gets.
>>143341469>Cartoons/comics are a specific niche consoomed mostly by middle aged white guysMan, some of you guys are so beyond fucking delusional it's hilarious.You want to act like the last decade of tumblrturd cartoon infestation didn't happen.The modern cartoon fanbase is full of fat white dykes and autistic enbies.
>>143337426>>143337540That means even that anime is kess gay shit than any west crap. Fucking kek.>>143337694>pick a struggleNot aids, that for sure.
>>143341523Holy shit you're retarded.
>>143341544>The modern cartoon fanbase is full of fat white dykes and autistic enbies.Fair enough but this is also present in anime. There's a lot of anime specifically made for women, in fact.
Buckbreaking weebs
>>143337514>even toddler products are better than woke shit from the westWay to fucking humilliate yourself.
>>143341554Most of those women aren't fat woke dykes, they're usually just Asian women who like romance.Your delusion is sad, imagine unironically trying to say that the modern cartoon fanbase is fucking middle aged white men, are you fucking insane?
>Woke diversity means the fanbase not the demographics shown in the source material./co/ can be a very sad, disingenuous board sometimes, doing everything in it's power to live in cope and denial of reality. It's no wonder this guy keeps posting east vs west threads, the real losers are people who refuse to adapt and are worth laughing at.
>>143341539Can you post a capeshit comic with a fight that has as much as energy as Goju vs Vegeta in the manga.
>>143341550Let me put it as simply as I can. More woke people are into anime than they are into comics or cartoons.A higher number of them have an interest in it. Get it?
>>143337004And yet better than Steven Universe shit.
>>143341572>betterSame level of shit
>>143341580But a higher proportion of cartoon watchers are woke, which is why a higher proportion of cartoons are full of woke shit.Here's a term your dumb ass might understand: per-capita.
>>143341578NTA but I remember battles in Rob Leifeld's art being really exciting when I was as kid, as much as Dragon Ball. Granted I was 6 and Leifeld is treated like Satan after the 90s for some reason.
>>143341477It all started with atla fags making “atla is better than all anime” shitposts which lead to the war.
>>143341574The same dykes are into those animes as well. It's the same demos.
>>143335585Melodrama. Singular, exaggerated moments made to evoke what an emotion would feel like if we weren't all violently nihilistic vagrants.
>>143336378>Middle aged white women who want there to be no violence or sex.That already happened in the 90s and they didn't ruin shit.Meanwhile, jews in the 2007+...
>>143338018
>>143341537>So you could only give me 2 answers?i don't know most of what you listed, for the others i tried reading the synopsis on wikipedia to try and understand what you want.>And like I said you can’t give me an answer to lotgh.like Star Trek cartoons? or what exactly do you want an equivalent for? there are cartoons about Star Trek, yes.
>>143341614No, they're not.You're literally just making shit up.This cope is just sad, anon.
>>143337141>Oda making fun of trannies is the same as fucking tranny propagandaSeriously, /co/?
>>143337549OP crops the site header out of these bait posts for a reason, the nanosecond any thinking person sees boundingintocomics they know it's a waste of time
>>143341539NTA but nobody has made a capeshit show of comparable quality in the past decade. Anime still regularly puts out decent enough shit but the shows we have to use for comparisons of equivalent quality get older and older every year. Sure, there's a lot of absolute fucking garbage too, but on our end of things we're lucky to have more than one good series airing a year
Tiny penis and not white
>>143341598Yeah and per-capita it's the same thing. I have social media and even IRL I just notice that anime has dethroned the rest when it comes to "nerd media" so more woke people are into it.Cartoons are full of woke shit because there's a bigger push of it in the west. But the irony is that woke people still prefer anime.In fact, I've seen woke people dismantle various cartoons and comics as being essentially chud shit.
>>143341544I'm not saying SU was good but I feel like cartoons just hit rick bottom after the gumball, gravity falls and SU ended. Heck, SU has effort in it as gay as it is. Everything now is not only pozzed but lazy with a touch of incompetence
>>143336412There is no strong females in Naruto lol, just a fucking alien. There is no strong females in original DBZ manga.
>>143341539idk man. Goku is kinda nuts compared to most capeshit heroes
>>143341654>I have social mediaIs this nigger serious?Am I being baited?
>>143341612I get that, I just have to wonder why is it always the English-speakers who have this penchant for tribalistic fighting. "Me beer is better than your beer".
>>143341623You're in denial. I am as transparent as it gets because I have nothing to lose. I know current cartoons/comics are mostly shit.
>>143341659>Naruto>Tsunade, Hinata, and Kushina just don't exist I guess>DBZ>Who is Android 18/
>>143341668You don't?
>>143341675You're retarded, you're literally trying to sit here and say that woke dykes are watching straight romance anime and not shit like She-Ra or Korra or TOH or one of the other dozens of cartoons with lesbian couples in them.I knew you were a dumbfuck when you tried to say the cartoon audience is middle aged white men, fucking hell, imagine sticking your head in the sand this hard.
No anime is artistic as Hedgehog in the Fog
>>143341544>>143341544What was the context of this scene? Was it hype?
>>143341691NTA but those women did nothing but job or be irrelevant. As much as I like Hinata because boobs, she's a nothing character.Android 18 was cool but quickly became irrelevant once Cell was introduced.
>>143341654>I have social mediaHow did you find a WiFi router?
>>143341633haha tlannies ale funnie! retsu dlawu themu fuckingu thatu wirr be arso funnie!
>>143341134Too hard for a rotating crew of writers to keep straight. Easier to just let everyone wing it and use pseudo science terms like "attosecond"
>>143341646It's capeshit. Rather standard at that in terms of plot. Yeah, there's some nice action scenes. That's not hard to recreate. But at its core it's a pretty basic capeshit affair. It's so weird to me that weebs cream themselves over it while hating capeshit. It makes absolutely no sense outside of just having east vs west bias.
>>143341733>That's not hard to recreate.Then why haven't you?
>>143341720>DoujinsSir that entire paragraph is referring to pornographic comics, not mainstream stuff, and the fact that they didn't have tranny porn until the west introduced it in the 80s is really telling.
>>143339962>making stuff people actually wantThat would be antisemetic and highly profitable so no thanks
>>143341696>you're literally trying to sit here and say that woke dykes are watching straight romance animeI know they are. Woke people just like anime. Straight, gay, whatever.A woke person can very much like anime. Hell, Vaush literally said he wishes the real world was more like an anime, here's a concrete e-celeb example. It's just common knowledge. Anime isn't some "white supremacist" thing.>I knew you were a dumbfuck when you tried to say the cartoon audience is middle aged white menI was referring more to comics
>>143341733are you pretending to be retarded? The action is the whole appeal and western stuff usually falls way short. People (boys and men) like action for action's sake. Nobody gives a fuck about Rambo's story or plot but he's still an iconic character
>>143341733As a foreigner who experienced Dragon Ball and Saint Seiya as far back as the late 80s, before america did, seeing characters die, bleed or get maimed one way or another was really shocking compared to G.I. Joe or He-Man. I'm not shitting on /co/ material, I'm just giving my childhood account since I feel the reason why DB and Saint Seiya got popular was the shock value that wasn't expected on kids media. Seeing Krillin die the first time or how Hyoga's friend lost his eye by being stabbed by an icecycle at age 5 hits different.
>>143341775Everyone likes anime, that's a moot point.More of the cartoon and comics audience is woke retards, which is why most cartoons and comics are woke shit for said woke retards.You pretending otherwise is just you being delusional.
>>143341733>Avoiding the pointOkay.
>>143341134But power level systems are unironically what usually ruin manga by the end.
>>143341744Depends on perspective. There's a quntillion comics with fights in them.Hell, MoS is pretty much live action DBZ.>>143341776>The action is the whole appealAgain depends on perspective. Not everyone cares solely about fights anon.> Nobody gives a fuck about Rambo's storyDumb take. The first film is a drama more than it's an action movie. Part 4 is an action movie where that aspect shines most.
>>143341817>Depends on perspective. There's a quntillion comics with fights in them.And none of them compare to DB, so if it's not hard to recreate, why haven't you?
>>143341791>More of the cartoon and comics audience is woke retardsNo, the companies making them are. It's different. In any case, the anime fanbase has a larger number of woke people who support it by indulging in it.
>>143335997naruto is for homosexuals
>>143341825Because that's your take. I don't see what makes DBZ special compared to capeshit. Capeshit has so much more variety in characters, stories and everything else.You could recreate DBZ in capeshit form and have it be a small pocket of that universe.
>>143341832>No, the companies making them are.Lolno, the creatives are too, hence why most indie comics and cartoons are also woke.Hell, indie comics are especially woke, who the fuck are you kidding?This idea you have of the middle aged white man being the majority in either of these industries is laughable, and the fact that you still believe that in 2024 tells me that you're beyond help.You're a typical boomer putting your head in the sand and saying everything is fine while the house burns around you.
>>143341840glass houses
>>143341856Woke people love anime.
>>143341853>Capeshit has so much more variety in characters, stories and everything else.That no one cares about because they all suck ass.
>>143341862Woke people dominate and control cartoons.Non-woke people literally get forced out of the cartoon and comic industries and get shit on by the fanbases.Your idea of the white man majority in these industries has been dead for a decade.
>>143341865And the same could be said about DBZ. So as you can see, it all depends on perspective.What does DB have? Spiky hair guy number 1, spiky hair guy number 2, their kids who are largely like them, some histrionic cunt who is the wife of guy 1 and some blue hair woman who is the wife of guy 2. A green pseudo-philosophical alien and a bunch of other vaguely gay aliens who are trying to destroy them.In practice, it works. It's fun, mostly due to the action. But it's not complex and it's not as varied as capeshit. Goku could become one of a thousand capeshit characters tomorrow with no issue.
>>143341785I love how the context of where cartoons were and how they weren't allowed to do much in the 80s compared to Saint Seiya and Dragon Ball in the international scene got ignored ITT.
>>143341896>And the same could be said about DBZ.DBZ is literally one of the best-selling comic series on the planet, so no, the same could not be said about DBZ.
>>143341896Why is it always Z? Why nobody talks about the original and its focus on adventure and Goku seeing sights beyond his cozy hill house. It's always Z because the US skipped the original, I swear. It's always the "boss rush" sequel show with never-ending battles, never the original.
>>143341785I was into Dragon Ball as a kid until it became too simplistic for me in terms of plot outside of fighting. Then I moved onto to "picture literature" aka manga and comics. I still like DBZ on a primal level but to pretend it's got more depth than comics would be disingenuous.
>>143341915DBZ is also easier to read than capeshit, both old and new. It's not nearly as complex or hard to follow.Someone mentioned Pokemon earlier. That's also a very popular series. What of it? How does that change anything I said?
>>143341934I can understand this take. It is a kids comic at the end of the day, but I can't deny the impact it had when everything seemed to have to be sanitized to hell and back unless it was an R-Rated movie.
>>143341750fine, i wanted to make this into an image anyway.
>>143341955Nah, people will get into anything no matter how complex if they like it.People just largely don't like capeshit because it sucks.
>>143341926I put a Z on there mostly to differentiate from Death Battle as a potential reference someone could perceive. Speaking of which, Death Battle is what brought this autism to the board in the first place.>my fictional character can beat up yoursAnd these threads are predicated on the same pointless autism.
>>143341978I hate Death Battle so fucking much.
>>143341969Ok, let's assume there's 2 capeshit fans on the entire planet. Why does it torment you in the way it does? Why lose sleep over it? In essence what I don't understand is why you're so insecure about the fact that someone likes something you don't. Especially something that is so close to what you presumably like, which is Dragon Ball.
pretending to not understand why dbz is popular in comparison to modern capeshit is some great trolling
>>143341967Also wtf, Dragon Ball had a gay nazi antagonist?
>>143341999Bro, you're the 50 year old guy who's been in this thread arguing with people for like 5 hours, I'm just here to tell you why people don't read capeshit.
>>143341995I hate it too because it gives birth to retarded discourse like this. Instead of actually having in-depth on topic discussions like adults, /co/ just devolved into retarded powerlevel discussions and east vs west debates. Like it actually matters what leisurely activity you do at the end of the day.
>>143342013I'm not 50, I just don't follow current trends because I find them shit. A lot of anime that is currently trendy I find subpar. Still, I don't obsess over it to the extend that you do. I don't understand why you're so tormented by this.Pick up a fucking sport dude. Pick up MMA.
>>143342003The Barbie movie made a billion dollars. I don't care for it.
>>143341750Japan drew tranny porn before they even existed in the west.
>>143342037>I'm not 50Anon, no offense, but I don't believe you.Everything about you points to an old, crusty as fuck boomer who's out of touch with the rest of the world.I'd say you're like my dad, but even my dad isn't that out of touch.
>>143342060You couldn't offend me if you tried. I genuinely wonder why you're so upset not everyone is an NPC following the heard.>who's out of touch with the rest of the worldAm I? No. Do I want to be? You could say that.I genuinely have little to no interest in the current fads. I'm not interested in the music, tv shows, films or even literature.I have a nostalgia-based liking for DBZ, but that doesn't make me special. DBZ is a known and popular property. A braindead youtuber by the name of KSI has a million dollar necklace based on Beerus. It's not a niche property.Just because anime is currently popular doesn't make it intrinsically better than other media to me.
>>143342132So when you're too old to take care of yourself in 10 years, which nursing home will you be put up in?
>>143342148I honestly wish I was older. Boomers were lucky to miss out on a lot of cringe shit while capitalizing on objectively better times. Zoomers on the other hand are profoundly uncool. The only benefit to being young right now is that the odds of extending one's lifespan and physical health exponentially are higher, which is the one benefit of me being young.
>>143341284>Miura didn't write that.nigger Guts cried and shit and had mental breakdowns way before Miura died
>>143341284>>143342212As a capeshit fan, Berserk has everything I could want from a comic. Except for the gay shit, that's unfortunate. But I understand why they did what they did.
>>143341967"However, Revolutionary Girl Utena stood apart, with prominent LGBTQ characters, which some called one of the most important anime of the 1990s.[55] It heavily influenced the creator of Steven Universe, Rebecca Sugar, calling a series which "plays with the semiotics of gender" which really stuck with her."And yet weeb fucktards blame SU, when it was directly inspired by jap garbage.
>>143341896>>143341865You guys forget that choreography and art largely carry these stories. If both DBZ and idk Superman were novels, I think superman would win over a monkey kid meeting a pig who wishes for panties.
>>143342231If Superman was a novel it'd be a dime-a-dozen story about the perfect man fighting crime, it'd just wrap around to being the same dime novels that originally inspired Superman to begin with.
>they still at it>>>/a/265833856
>>143342231I do like DBZ's aesthetics but I generally prefer western type art. I wouldn't mind japs handling more cape characters, I think it's interesting and has potential, but it also depends on the property.On the other hand, I don't think the west can successfully translate anime to live action. But there's more you can get away with in animation.
>>143342231the latter sounds way more interesting but I'm not sure that's intentional. Like it's captain underpants tier which would smoke the superman story
>>143342212Yeah but he didn't draw that particular scene. The scenes you're referring to were poetic and perfectly showed his frustration. Nobody blames guts for being raped. Heck, miura showed wrote it perfectly. The west however would be clamoring for Guts to show forms of trauma and resolve said trauma by befriending a gay person or wearing a flower crown or twerking or showing "vulnerability" but from their cultural viewpoint.
>>143342257He's right. Dune needs to be turned into an anime instead of the gorrillion shitty moeshit shows for gays and women.
>>143342257I've done the whole bait two boards at once thing and then cross link them. Teenage shitposting, I don't miss it but I did have fun.
>>143342229Utena is fantastic, doesn't deserve to be in the same sentence as SU
>>143342228Griffith isn't gay, though, he's just a narcisistic asshole. He wanted Guts as an object that belongs to him, ditto Casca. He's mad they had free wills instead of being completely surrendered to him.
>>143342311Still performed a gay act. Regardless, it's an example of the type of manga/anime I consider to not be a waste of time.
>>143342331Oh, you mean when he prostituted himself to that Baron for money for the Band of the Hawk. Yeah, he killed him later, though, during the Golden Age.
>>143342310fantastically turned cartoons gay you mean.
>>143342331Tbh all capeshit is a waste of time.
>>143342331You're not understanding the exact issue.
>>143341363>waaaaaaah!!! why are there nigguhs in mah japanese media!! i'm being oppressed!! waaaaaaah!!Yup, I'm also hoping Western media keeps pumping out more black characters to spite you.
>>143342578>crashing the entire western media economy to pwn the conservatives
Capeshit is for retards.Manga and anime are for gay retards.
>>143342578>waaaah waaaahSigh .....Reddit, now
