| It's not like old toons anymore and people don't like that. Those who say modern anime suck simply have failed to look hard enough for things worth watching. Watching the first ecchi series that airs and generalizing the state of modern anime to be exactly as mindless fanservice does not count. |

CoolMan1999x said: mouvite said: How can you say that if, judging by your list, you haven't seen many old anime? It also depends on what you consider an "old anime" (for me "old" means 2000 and earlier). I have seen a few for example inuyasha made me sleep a few times hhhhhhh =3= So you watched one bad one. It's like judging all modern anime on Sword Art or Musaigen. |
| I'm actually pretty bored with most of the new anime this year but 2015 was great right up until the end where there was like one or two actually good shows and people wouldn't shut the fuck up about One Meme Man. It was a good year for anime all things considered. Hibike, Yuri Kuma, the Love Live movie, Death Parade, probably a bunch of others I'm forgetting too. |
 |
| they can't enjoy anime anymore you are not a hero arguing with these people they are possibly drug addicts or worse play video games a lot. |
| cause they've probably watched too much anime and compare it to the previous shows they've watched? :/ |
   |
| They are idiots that confuse their lack of enjoyment with the quality of what they are watching. As simple as that. There is nothing remotely logical about their behavior. It's just being toxic through and through. They are good source of humor sometimes with their delusions. ''hurr durr lets bash the most hyped anime of season and call it ''bad writing'', that's certainly productive'' ''hurr durr casuals are ruining the MAL rankings. And we all know how important the rankings on this site are ;)'' ''hurr durr lets bitch and pms over any LN announcement thread with the same thing, that will certainly make Japan stop producing them XDDDD!!!!!11'' ''hurr durr lets keep being toxic af and continue posting on a fan site of anime about how much this medium suckzzz. That makes so much sense :))))'' In what possible way? Idiots ranting the same BS on every LN adaptation or harem or w/e are literally not gonna change anything. The community by large is irrelevant in the first place. |

| Because people like to parrot the same few opinions like "ohhh fanservice is always bad woe is me I saw boobies" and "ALL modern anime is bad" without providing any backing for their opinions, because they just follow the mob mentality. However I would say there is too much fanboyism as well, especially for shows such as One Punch Man and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. I don't mind people liking these shows, I don't mind people liking them a lot but I think people should maybe think things through before shouting "HURRR 10/10 BEST ANIME EVUR" The_Nico said: TheMaster100 said: Being more critical of this form of medium will benefit the entire community. But within the last 6 years, there are a handful of series that I've enjoyed compared to the shows from the mid 90's - 2007. There is no "anime community." Rather, it is a congregation of deluded and dissatisfied individuals who use their emotions over their thoughts when it comes to "criticism." Not to mention that Japs don't listen to us western viewers in almost all cases, so all the whining we do is worthless to the industry. If you want to change the industry, vote with your wallet enough to change market trends. |

| Elevated criticism becomes necessary due to the amount of imitations in new anime today. Anne Happy and Sansha Sanyou are good examples from just this season alone. The new generation are incapable of recognizing the cynicism and desperation in these anime and harsher and harsher criticism to the point of hyperbole is needed to truly put into context their likeness to "Brada" purses or "Akeley" sunglasses at the beach promenade knockoff stands. |
 |
| Same goes for pretty much every single thing in this world. Yesterday was always a better day.. The thing here is that today pretty much every single anime out there is open to the public eye & the inferior ones eventually fade away. So all the trash harem anime from today will probably fade away tomorrow & only the really good ones will prevail, which is why people from say 20 years in the future will say that this era was way better. It happens like every twenty years.. |
| I can't really watch old anime because it's too disgusting visually for me. The bitches have BEAT faces and pointy boobs and there eyes look x10 more retarded than newer anime. |
| I don't get the people who waste time about how anime today isn't as good as the old days. Did any of them literally run out of anime to watch? I'm serious. |

| I don't think there's anything wrong with harsh comments towards an anime, it would be nice if it can be justified though, it is the opinion of the critic. |

| There is criticism in everything which is popular. I guess one factor of anime criticism are weebs. Doing unnecessary weird stuffs thus tainting the name of the industry |
    |
| I stick to anime I like watching and enjoy. Unfortunately these types of anime have been decreasing over the years I guess. I think that's why most people complain, especially those who grew up in the 90s and stuff. I would say most modern anime don't appeal to me. But there's still something to watch every season. |
| Just like music and everything else, people only remember the "classics", they shows that are well known or generally considered good. I looked through 1995-2000 anime with members above 10k. I recognized one, maybe two a season and have seen even fewer. All of the old shows I've seen are famous, or highly rated. Akira, NGE, GitS, Berserk, Serial Experiments Lain, you can't compare some of the most influential anime of all time to your average seasonal. Unless you've actually dug into the past beyond the recommendations you'll get on mal, I wouldn't judge it as better or worse. Most of my favorite shows are from 2010s, so I wouldn't say modern anime is bad, at least not to me. I hate how it can become formulaic, but the same is true of Hollywood as somebody mentioned previously. The evolution of these formulas is something I'm interested in, but comparing that aspect of modern anime with that of older anime would require watching a ton of random shows from several decades. Basically, if the older shows you've seen only consist of popular ones, your opinion on the subject means very little. |

They have a gut feeling for some kind of biased reason and despite them usually not being able to back it up with actual, factual arguments they are randomly confident in their opinion and flaunt it all over the internet. They probably like being seen as 'the critical-cynical retro guy' because in my experience they don't have much actual interest in discussing the development of the medium and the pros and cons anime production has now compared to back then and vice versa. Since that would make the thread about the topic and not about them, which I'm pretty sure is what they're really about. So yeah, the question in general is why do people always feel the need to jump to conclusions like that and apply their very limited experiences to forming opinions about the whole medium? There are probably various reasons and if you can answer that for yourself you can probably also answer it for the other side. |

Content and medium are different things. If you discuss medium, you discuss how it functions and less about the content. You talk about animation, pacing, whether the format of episodes lead to developed stories or dragging ones. You don't talk about harems - that's a different discussion. Medium and content are related, but are different subjects. |

But whenever people are talking about anime, it's usually just "man, does anyone else think these last few seasons suck?" - and has watched 7 anime before 2009 and four of the "big seasonal" anime like OPM or something. And no one's, you know, actually talking about the anime. Just anime. Generalizations all around. I've heard more complaints about the seasons than the anime that comes with it. Well, I get that this is the anime discussion board. But if we're going to say the season in general sucked there's not much more discussion to be had y'know? It's too unspecific. |

| I'm just a fanboy, but I don't see any real flaws in today's anime. I always enjoy it, I don't mind generic characters and plots (I would go so far as to say I actually rather enjoy those), I love fanservice, and I am just as happy with deep complex plots as I am with lighthearted nonsense. I also don't mind plot convenience or minor contradictions, and I find pretty much all today's anime to at least have good animation. I mean they arent Fate Stay/Night UBW, but they're at least good. I don't seem to resonate with people who have all these criticisms. But again, I guess I'm just a fanboy in the minority. |

Mamster-P said: Why is it that we are only allowed to hold opinions on media produced by our own culture? The same argument can be applied to even that. Each individual that works on a show brings their own experience and perspective to the table, and it will undoubtedly be different than your own just as the values of other cultures are different. How can you criticize anything if the opinion of what it's creator deems as quality differs from your own? Being produced in Japan does not put something above criticism from any audience, whether they're the target or not, and there is a profound difference between not liking something due to a cultural gap and not liking it because you think it is of poor quality. Much of my disinterest in Mushishi is likely a result of it being rooted in Japanese folk lore of which I have no knowledge. I certainly won't ask for Japan to change what Mushishi fundamentally is to my preferences, but I will ask for more complex characters than it provides, and this is true for any media with which I am dissatisfied with the characters.merryfistmas said: Because it does.

| here op i think you're missing this |
| Different people react differently to various cliques and tropes (Cliches and tropes are basically commonly used practices that are widely portrayed throughout a medium. EX: Panty jokes, Wimpy Protagonists. You probably get the idea). As audiences change, the tropes and cliques they are more likely to enjoy (or put up with) also change. If we look back to 1988, the art style that was popular among animators was very different, we had different story archetypes, and different popular voice actors, and different writers, manga artists, and publishing groups. My point is, some people are just more likely to positively resonate with a different set of variables than others are. Everyone is going to have their golden age for when they think the largest number of great anime came out. For me, that would be the late 90's to early 2000's, however, there are plenty of great stuff coming out now, and there was a lot of great stuff before that. Trying to figure out which era is better is pointless. The only standard you can definitively hold to anime is animation quality (Not art style, I'm talking how the frames move from one image to the next), and obviously as time has gone on, animation quality has increased. If I was you, just stick to whatever era you like, and if you want to be adventurous and try something new, then seek out older stuff. I'm sure that me, or any one else whose favorites are from a while back would be happy to recommend something to you that you might like based on your preferences. |

This is the anime discussion section and not one anime discussion section, so you never really see criticisms for one anime here anyway. "Recent anime" or "this season" or "anime nowadays", yawn. |

| >too much anime criticism? There's never enough anime criticism. |
Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
