Thorn Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 First, a foreword:>! Now, my arguments:>! Anime has hurt the development of Western animation more than almost any other single force. Why? Because it's cheaper to produce, and dumb kids think spiky hair is the shit.>! I am continually stunned by the amount of unoriginal crap that people love because it's anime. Look at that poster. You've seen that same layout ten thousand times, you'll see it ten thousand more. For every one original anime, there is an uncountable legion of painful rip-offs of already tired material.>! >! First, a piece of art from Yoshitaka Amano, an artist who has a style refined enough to actually be considered art, despite still being anime. This is about as 'badass' a piece as I've seen him do, and while it is artistically sound it's a little unexciting.>! >!  Second is a piece of art from the amazing Western artist Frank Frazetta. If you haven't heard of him, go look him up. He's capable not only of doing action scenes that you can feel the motion in, but he can also make the female body more alluring (and unique) than this cookie-cutter BS coming out of the East. Frazetta>Amano.And my closing statement:>! Pictoral essay complete. Crusade mode disengaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorn Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 People don't feel the same for live action as a medium, though actors have nutjob followers. I mean as a medium though, people see the big eyes and are all "ZOMG I LOVE ANIME" and then I have to stab them with my rage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magezhilo Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I used to love anime because of the art style used. I remember I used to draw my own DBZ characters and my own pokemon, but I soon realized (As Thorn has pointed out) that the artwork isn't anything compared to some more western artists. I still enjoy the old animes I used to love as a kid, but not the newer seasons that are out that made them suck with their outrageous storylines.R.I.P.-Pokemon-Digimon-Dragonball ZYou will be missed.

azure Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Cowboy Bebop. Forever, end of story. If you like a good story watch it. It's one of the few times I've seen western, sci-fi, and artsy work together."Bang!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azure Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Not all anime is shit, though it's very very hard to find good stuff any more. I generally only recommend two. The above mentioned, and Ghost in the shell. I'd say trigun, but I never saw enough of that one to form an opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azure Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 @Thorn:> I also just have to reinforce something that I guess I kinda implied earlier.> > Frazetta > All anime everYou know how psychology can't judge personal preferences? This is one of those times. Just because you don't like anime, doesn't make it shit. Personally I'd have to say western animation died off after Tom and Jerry, but that's just me.

Adulese Games Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 First off, thank you Thorn gor putting us off topic due to your need to rage … again. Now to my rebutal. Honestly, anime and eastern animation has done nothing but brought the idea that animation can be used as a story telling device that isn't just directed to kids. American animation has gone down the shit hole due to our society's general belief that only children watch cartoons. It is only due to this that the controlling distributing companies (Disney, Nick, Cartoon Network) that american animation has been soley targeted to the attention spans of 10 year old.Due to the emense flowing of anime into the western sociey, people are realizing the potential of anime. For instance, France has a very popular animation airing now that is inspiring more (search wakfu).So don't blame another culture's form of entertainment for the lack of a similar one in the home culture. You sound far to close minded.- Adulese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azure Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Code Geass, is probably my third favorite. :) I tend to stick with what's been dubbed, because reading subs is a pain in the ass for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
