If Tokyo's boomers' complaints are as petty as getting annoyed at based Kansai people then I'm not even surprised. One nuke was enough but Hiroshima was the wrong target.

Could Sovietist Japan prevent this?

It feels like the nipponese animation industry will never get back to 2005-2010 level quality. Looking through seasons from back then, it seems as though most anime were held to a much higher standard of creative quality compared to the past 2 years at least. There were 20-30 anime released per season, instead of literally fucking 50. And the worst of otaku slop was relegated to a few shows per season, instead of having like 40% of shows be the most boring romcom you can imagine or some variant of narou-style litrpg fantasy. The kind of decent premise and execution we see in the best anime today was normal for the time. And I'm not sure if this is a recent trend, but original anime and adaptations tend to do terribly in terms of audience reception, the otaku slop actually works in capturing fots audiences.
The worst part is, all of this is happening against the backdrop of the extreme exploitation faced by japanese animators. They're being made to release 50 anime per season, and most of it won't become something that will be remembered past the end of its run time.

So aren't these anime basically just following the same formula as Seth Rogen or Adam Sandler movies which are considered by the public at large to be "normalfag" "cringe"?

Genuinely one of the worst shonen protagonists of all time. 430 chapter long story, and he gets 0 characters growth. And its not like Horikoshi cant write, other characters, including completely irrelevant members of supporting cast, got an arc, while Midoriya stays in the exact same place for the entire run of the manga.

Did they address the quirk discrimination or did they just go with the 'le big bad guy was defeated, everything is good now' trope?

Was this joke really THAT funny? I do admit it takes a lot more intelligence to even came up with the setup for it that Matt and Trey posess on an average day, but is it really very funny? I didn't laugh at it, but that's maybe because I am not burger and would never "get it what it means to hear this word!"

>What are those?
Adult action cartoons. Like, actually adult. They mostly rely on gore to bump up their rating but otherwise they're not that different from more mature Saturday morning cartoons, with Primal having no dialogue and Invincible barely having vulgar humor and swearing, not enough to get on your nerves and be obnoxious (it's action drama though, not comedy). I'd also recommend Lastman, which is about as vulgar as Invincible is but it's French so it means it's twice as funny. And we also have Samurai Jack season 5.

I'll also take an opportunity to shill Invincible Fight Girl, which was originally planned to launch on CN but it's on Adult Swim now so… it can be considered an adult cartoon… kinda?

>>26266
Those aren't really adult cartoons then
IMO, kids cartoons tend to have more depth and peculiar designs compared to adult cartoons.
I mean seriously.

Adults cartoons often have to rely on satire or parody of kids cartoons to have any relevancy.

>>26267
>Those aren't really adult cartoons then
Excuse me, what?

Yeah, I was talking in the other thread about how shounen is not a genre and yet you're making the same mistake, mistaking the demographic for the genre. Just because adult action cartoons and seinen anime don't have swearing and full-frontal nudity every 2 seconds doesn't make them not adult, the marketing and the explicit content do. What you're referring to is "animated shock comedy." Which is unfortunately what most adult cartoons are, but it's not the rule. Just like not all shounen is action comedy, not all adult cartoons are shock comedy.

Maybe it's because I'm not American but I never understood the appeal of South Park.

I remember marathoning the whole show up until the latest season at the time, this was about 10 years ago or more.

The one time I actually laughed, ONE TIME IN THE ENTIRE MARATHON, is Cartman swearing at Mr. Garrison with a megaphone ("I said, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO SUCK MY BALLS, Mr. Garrison"), and only because of the context of Mr. Garrison being gay + Cartman randomly pulling out a megaphone.
Okay, the ending of the World of Warcraft episode ("what do you mean? Now we can finally play the game") got a chuckle out of me too.

>>26358
imo it's kind of like Seinfeld in how at the time what it was doing really shifted the landscape, but now 30 years later what made it unique has disseminated through the genre and it doesn't look like anything special anymore.

I was watching the classic seasons of the Simpsons with my girlfriend recently, who is a good decade younger than me. She was kind of mystified by it and didn't understand why Homer is SUCH an asshole especially early on, and I had to explain the media and culture it was responding to at the time to give the show the sort of character it had.

Tbh I remember SP as being kind of the same in that regard. It caused a BIG social reaction with its violence, language, and subject matter. There was a big moral panic about it especially since it was a cartoon, kids watching it, adults freaking out about it, the whole magilla. Nowadays the early seasons of SP probably look pretty tame compared to something like Rick and Morty.

Comon you can't say that and not tell us who she is, who's your wife who's the lucky one

If you ask a 2d weeb oh you like anime? Name every manga ever he can come up with decent number. 3D uyghas will struggle beyond marvel and a few westoid cgi animations

Only a problem for people that fell for the AI thing.

Don't care if there's anime i will never watch and waifus im never gonna see. I only need my dark skinned misato

Is night on the galactic railroad communist? it feels like it has almost a cosmist vibe to it. The afterlife is shown as a paradise in both the book and the anime where people can just think of stuff, and it materializes, everything is in the same language, and the purpose of man is to serve each other.

The new Gundam is out and it's very okay/10.

>Pros
Animation is generally good
Fights generally good
Some people have likened it to a Gundam themed horror/slasher which it does kinda pull off
Universal Century Best Century
Surprise appearance by that guy from 08th team
Classic Gundam anti war themes

<Cons
Too short to really develop those themes or characters.
Animation on humans looks kinda wonky sometimes
There's little interaction between the zeon pilot and the Gundam pilot which makes the ending kind of weird and forced.
Overall doesn't really add anything to the Gundam universe and doesn't really feel like it's a story that needed telling

I really liked Requiem for Vengance. It was exciting and I watched it all one morning before work. To be honest I struggle to watch modern anime these days because I think its mostly really boring and doesn't do anything interesting and I especially hate all the fantasy shlock coming out. I've only been watching older stuff, so this was a bit of a breath of fresh air to me as a modern anime with actually good characters and stakes that matter, in a world I am very invested in. I don't think most people will share this opinion though, like you think its mid. I think it was exceptional.

>>26088
I disagree with your assessment but I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway.

As you said, it felt unnecessary, it doesn’t ruin anything but it doesn’t add anything either.

>>26294
It felt like it got cut down from a much bigger premise or something. Like if the elements of it had time to grow then it would feel like a proper Gundam story, but as it is everything feels too abbreviated to be impactful.

Honestly the opening scene still bothers me. Like the Zeons are just marching in column right into a trap. No scouts? No aerial reconnaissance? Nothing??? Like I'm sure there's a bunch of ways to headcanon to make it fit but it just seems like them being idiots for no reason.

>>26086
I watched it recently, okay/10 is about how I felt.

Cool visuals, neat retro "grungy" 90s Gundam OVA feel, some solid fights and art design, story and characters were meh.
