Art wise current HD art is the best.

It is screenwriting/story that leaves to be desired.


Can we have a remaster of our 2000s favorites in modern HD art?

Imagine how awesome would something like .hack//Sign, DearS or El Cazador de la Bruja look in modern HD art.

Instead they do Demon Slayer about 30s of the bygone era.

90s anime is peak. I did enjoy the art of some early 00’s stuff too. Anime nowadays is hit or miss to me art wise.

No I don’t. The art at that time was at a transition point in terms of quality and animation. I personally like old 1980s and 1990s art even though I am not of that generation but I just love how it looks so I miss that even though I wasn’t born at that time lol.

Not really art-style from early 00s sucks, it was transitional period from cel to digital and it took almost a decade to make it look good.

The old graphics were crooked, but I still like it more than the modern ones with apple faces, and in general Miyazaki and Kon are the best, the faces of their heroes still seem alive.
May be some anime?

The giant eyes look really stupid to me, the one in the 2nd post looks like Barney mid burp with the eyes pointing outwards.

And what chara design has to do with transition to digital coloring and composition? I'll tell you. Nothing. Imagine thinking that anime is the only medium that Japanese artists were using thier design.
And I don't agree. Chara design from late 90s to late 00s looked way better than today's design.

I don't miss the artstyle itself, because I think anime art overall is evolving in a good direction, and for most part looks better than ever before, IMO.


That said, I do think that a lot of anime from 2000s should be receiving revivals, or remakes simply because they have interesting stories.

Mid 2010's was cool

Late 2000's is acceptable but early-mid 2000's looks too Clannad

Yes I do, but I don't wanna see them in this Era.. Each Era has its own distinct art style and that's how it should remain.. I can watch any anime from back then anytime so it's all good

I enjoy old series art style, 70s-80s. It is so nostalgic.

Yes, there was a lot of variety in the way 2000s anime looked.
Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength.

I absolutely agree. 90s art style was fine, it had a weird charm about it, then when the early 2000s came about it got into this really weird state, where the art style looked cleaner then the 90s but the actual character design looks just off for some reason.

Would like to the know why the 90s are always popular? Honestly if you like predigital animation I think the 70s and 80s had better character designs outside of some exceptions idk maybe that is just me. Rose of Versailes, Future Boy Conan, Aim for the Ace, City Hunter, MSG Zeta, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, OG Dragon Ball, Space Cobra etc lots of great character designs in those decades.

Anyway of course you miss older styles but I am pretty happy with modern character designs. I mean again I am nostalgic for art styles found in the 2000s (the anime I grew up with) but artistically I think modern stuff (post 2010) largely is better drawn/designed.
