| It has come to my attention that RWBY (Which isn't exactly Anime) which I don't have much interest in is absent from the MAL database. I know a lot of people would agree with when I ask: Why is Pingu allowed to stay on MAL at the top of the highest rated Anime no less with the likes of Cowboy Bebop and Clannad ~After Story~, while RWBY which most people consider to be Anime and actually enjoy is not on MAL all together? |
 |
| That becaue this Pingu in particular is actually made right now in Japan from a Japanese studio (Polygon Picture who did Ajin, knights of Sidonia and other stuff) and for Japan. RWBY isnt. |

| RWBY is an American comic made in the US by an American company towards an American audience. source: http://rwby.wikia.com/wiki/RWBY Pingu is an animation made in Japan by a Japanese company towards a Japanese audience we've seen a lot of thread asking/complaining about Pingu being added. it is an anime by the very definition of anime. deal with it. edit: Pingu being enjoyable to watch or not have nothing to do with whether it's an anime or not. |

| RWBY is not anime. If we add RWBY, we would have to add Rooster Teeth's Red vs. Blue, Camp Camp, and their other animated projects which are very distinctly not anime. |

| I know RWBY isn't Anime and my point wasn't made to agrue whether RWBY should be added to the database I posted this because Pingu is a troll and you're all feeding a fire which will one day get extinguished. |

You don't think when you post right? Like your first post was nothing but why is RWBY not allowed but clay penguin is!! Now your suddenly Pingu is a joke blah blah. Really all you complainers for Pingu are not making your case any better... nor are you doing anything effective is extinguishing the phenomenon known as Pingu. Since all y'all do is post and rant about it for fuck sake. I'm starting to think everyone on the hate side secretly is in love with Pingu. |

Laugasts said: I find it funny that Pingu is on here but Neo Yokio ( which is produced by Production I.G and Studio DEEN ) isn't. according to wiki, Neo Yokio was made by Ezra Koenig of American rock band Vampire Weekend. Japanese companies did help with production, but the target audience was still the west - mostly American people in America and not Japanese people living in Japan. this should be obvious from the language of the animated series - it's in English, not Japanese. |

MAL accepts some animated series from China and S Korea as an exception (and they need to satisfy some criteria iirc). there's a FAQ answering this somewhere. |

Noblesse Awakening was produced by Production IG the original work is by Son Jeho from S Korea, but the 2nd animated adaptation was done by a Japanese company with Japanese voice actors and actresses, probably in Japanese towards a Japanese target audience - since the characters speak in Japanese. so it actually fits the definition of anime and is not even an exception. |

| Then explain to my why RWBY is available on Crunchyroll but the disease known as Pingu isn't? If i'm not mistaken isn't Crunchyroll the largest Anime streaming service in the US if not the world? |

| Because RWBY is not anime, and Pingu is masterpiece and also an anime. |

| like how people use rwby as an example, instead of say castlevania which is arguably a better case, still bs but at least you dont look like a retard |
| It's good that Slop leveling won the CR awards with such a power gap, Gaijin Weebs don't deserve good anime. Not after what they did to frieren, kusuriya, and many others |
HawkAussie said: I am going to add fuel to this fire by saying that Pingu was originally not made in Japan but in Switzerland and the United Kingdom so technically this shouldn't be an anime by that assumption alone. Here is the original page for this on the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pingu But as this is a remake of the original and is using computer animation instead of the stop-motion series that this was famous for in the first place. Will it feel off, my answer is yes, Do I think that it should be allowed on here, huh its 50/50 on that and it is sort of like RWBY where again its about 50/50 on that. its a remake, by a japanese studio, for japanese audience, airing on NHK rwby is an original some guy made one day, by an american studio, for an american audience in english airing on the net weekly released also on a yt channel its not even 50/50 its pingu is def allowed in and rwby is 100% not if we include rwby, we also have to include RvB and camp whatever their other show is dont want to sound like a douche, >Will it feel off is not an argument, |

DragonNinjaBD said: Im not here to argue, i just want to see everyone’s imput. The definition of anime (when just looking it up in google) is: “a style of Japanese film and television animation, typically aimed at adults as well as children.” Pingu ORIGINALLY was a Brit-Swiss production. So even tho it is now a Japanese thing, wouldnt it TECHNCALLY still not be anime? And i believe RWBY has a Japanese dub if i am correct, im not too sure, i think RT had something with a Japanese studio? Im not too sure. More info would be great! Love to hear what everyone thinks. how do you define style? it's vague and easyly replicated... this version of Pingu is made by polugon pictures, aired in NHK... hence why this version is here, when older version isn't... |

| "It has come to my attention that RWBY (Which isn't exactly Anime)" there you got your answer. unnecesary message, for real |
| :v |
| One does not seek logic from mal's anime standards. There will never be a straight answer about that. Ask them and youll know what I mean. |
