He's right though
Not really, I won't deny that anime from back then had its fair share of shit, just like now.


If you speak from that experience, too bad those shows you might be referring to are probably never talked about today.

I'm guessing shows like Saber Marionette (one of my very first anime) was often dismissed. I didn't call it a masterpiece either, but I'm guessing this is just one of a few.

4.0 (3.0 +1 or whatever it's called) will just be a naked Anno rolling around money. Then in the middle of the movie he will run out into the theaters to lick all of the fans tears from their face, still naked of course.

The old anime watchers will sadly never admit that though.
Why generalize?



I agree completely. I sometimes find old anime watchers obnoxious especially if they cherry-pick the "masterpieces" of the past and compare it to newer anime.

No, I don't believe it's going to die. The japs should just adapt to modern society imo and try to broaden their export of their animes while solely focusing on Japan.

And relying heavily on BD/DVD sales is pretty primitive, they should try to take over internet with VoD services like Netflix but with a shit ton more anime for a reasonable price.

Also referred to as clickbait to generate ad revenue. I don't know if that's the case here, but most anime journalism is just bad. Seventhstyle has some pretty decent content though, but I don't get my news from there.

i mean, Anime news sites are becoming less and less reliable bcoz of bad writing, unreliable sources, or etc.

but still, ANN has their mini opinion series (ex. some Tales of the Industry articles) which are interesting

It's the only one that actually felt like the original NGE (psychological and philosophical mindf**k) instead of some generic battle mecha. I'd definitely put it above movie 1. The only problem is that it relies heavily on 3.0+1.0 since it left a lot of questions unanswered..

Probably not the best examples, since those three examples are based off older manga.

its true 70% of the animes from a new season are sh*t. however some are ok or even good, and there are still some good mangas on going or finished that if some anime industry picks them, they will turn out pretty good animes i guess

Anime isn't dying. If anything its getting more popular. However I do imagine that in 20 or so years that most anime will feature a lot more 3D graphics.

Who cares. There's so much anime already produced that everyone can watch it till they die and still won't be able to finish every single cartoon.

Bullshit... total waste of potential and spent half it's runtime with flashy action and blank characters. If your talking about the rebuilds then yeah sure... (sucks happily on a lemon that doesn't exist)

Dying as of how though, the amount being produced, the quality. If we're talking about old anime (before 90s) then both had skyrocketed since then. Though the standout shows varies so one time you'll get tatami galaxy and then you'll get the ever popular AOT. I think we are priving to much on finding masterpieces that don't exist and comparing the quality of them. Whatever, anime now is anime now, what's popular now could have been popular then so whatever.

I have no idea the state of the anime producers and the japanese market as BD and merchandise sales bring food to the table and the need to crank out a show each season. Boy it's hectic, I don't know when the conveyor belt will stop but I doubt it'll happen.

Yeah... and the last day of life on earth was December 31st, 1999... oh, wait, I meant December 31st 2012...

Did you know that in the 1970's scientists were predicting the onset of an ice age due to weather patterns? Now they're on a global warming kick... or, they were, we never hear about it much anymore...

Point: Who the hell knows. I'm not worried about it.

After 5-20 years, hentai will be children's show for the sake of sex education and population control awareness since it's a global campaign.

So this is the new version of the "Anime was a mistake" meme? The Miyazaki one was funnier though since he at least contributed to the medium. The Anno meme seems more ironic.
