All big tits need to be at least this big.  |

Ah yes, Genshin Impact the game with no tits because of Chinese censorship. You got that right. Natural A-Cup right here. No booty either. Flat everywhere I swear. Fun fact. This character used to have an enormous size. Got reduced (even after appearing in the game already) and even though there was tons of complaints and even a poll on the official forum to revert her back to the original state, nothing was done in the end. The banner sales when she was featured are the lowest revenue month in Genshin Impact history. On topic. Genshin Impact it's a decent game but the lack of content and limitations from their country holds the game back. Imo the game is only popular because nothing like this exist at the moment. When another F2P open world live service anime style game comes out, i see Genshin popularity dropping hard. The only competition i see for now it's Blue Protocol but that's an MMO. Still looks like a decent competitor as i know a lot of people that intend on dropping Genshin once that comes out. |

I know they nerfed her, but either way they are still not small. And I would be open for a game to come out better than it but right now as it stands I think it is probably one of the best Gacha games out there. You can pretty much play everything for free and have like a hundred hours of free content. |

| I don't get it. When did MAL or other otaku communities have the prejudice of "Chinese entertainment = bad"? It's purely based on content. Some Chinese shows/games might be even better than some Japanese ones or vice versa. In Genshin's case, it's a big budget project that mainly targets otaku communities with heavy anime aesthetics and it succeeded, that's all. If there's another project like that which looks promising quality content, people will eat it up regardless of Chinese or anime or not. The closest example would be upcoming Black Myth: Wukong which the trailer looks super dope. I believe that game doesn't have anything to do with 'being anime' (it'll be probably be full Chinese dub) and it's already popular enough just by trailer. Soul Workers was once a very popular anime-style MMO too despite it being Korean dub originally. What you need in entertainment is appealing aesthetics, some creativity, and enough money to make it more well-known with better marketing. Not racism nor national brands. |

Dota 2 Any of those ring a bell? Aside from "New World", I've at least heard of all of them, although I couldn't tell you anything about Diablo or Dota, apart from the fact that they simply exist, lol. Had no idea Overwatch or Skyrim were American, but as I alluded to before, I'm not the most knowledgeable about America's game industry (almost every video game I play is from Japan, it seems) so I guess that's to be expected, lol Conceptualhero said: Go on Google Trend and compare the term "Mo Dao Zu Shi" to any anime and you can see the results. Never used Google Trends before and I'm terrible at math, but it seems to be more searched than even my favorite anime (JoJo) in recent memory https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=Mo%20Dao%20Zu%20Shi,JoJo%27s%20Bizarre%20Adventure,JoJo%20no%20Kimyou%20na%20Bouken There's definitely a chance I messed something up there though. Again, I've never used Trends before |

| Just because its a Chinese game doesn't mean much. Azur Lane, Girls Frontline, Arknights are Chinese games too. But GFL/AL don't have any Chinese voice actors and Arknights is only just beginning to get Chinese voice actors. They have always had Japanese voice actors (for a reason). The anime staff on the Azur Lane anime were Japanese and had Japanese voice actors. All of the animated shorts for Arknights have been made by Japanese people. Girls Frontline is getting a proper anime next year. Bet you'll never guess the nationality of the high production staff and voice actors for that one. |

For example I have joined r/Donghua thus I get some stuff from there along r/Anime and other subreddits... Conceptualhero said: I am assuming that is how most anime fans get their news on the upcoming anime season. Nope, there is https://myanimelist.net/anime/season where you can go to past or future seasons. But personally I prefer https://anidb.net/anime/season/?do.filter=1 from AniDB.net |

TBH, Reddit seems to be a better source, but MAL has a good database for further research. Nothing really beats MAL in terms of being a global directory. Yes, you can do that simply following r/Anime anf even find groups of people who rewatch "classic" stuff, join them ect...my point was if someone wanders about anime schedules how hard is to google "anime schedules" and hit the ones on AniList, AnimePlanet or even animeschedule.net? And my bigger point being - Genshin Impact is heavy advertised, this is why it's so popular. Mo Dao Zu Shi is in a word of the mouth situation, people who have given it chance are proving that certain donghua shows with certain themes and quality of execution can become popular outside of China. ...aaand when the western distributors pulled out a similar show Tian Guan Ci Fu this is what happened - despite it looking gorgeous and having some BL stuff on it, it failed to make a big splash because its main story was kind of boring. By the way, now those distributors are trying Can Ci Pin: Fangzhu Xingkong (aka The Defective) which is sci-fi and 3D CGI...but slopy animated and the writing is trashy. I don't expect westerner having a deep dive into donghua anytime soon and it's mainly a matter of accessibility and distributor choices. |

Conceptualhero said: No... just because it is a Chinese show doesn't necessarily mean anime fans will hate said show. Genshin Impact is created by a Chinese company and had English and Japanese dubs. The game became a massive success and is enjoyed by many people worldwide. This is proof that Chinese entertainment can be popular among the weeb communities. Chinese animated shows just need English and/or Japanese dubs. Why are you using a game's popularity as an argument for animation? They are two COMPLETETLY different industries. |

spaesu said: MindOfOsaka said: still, might not exactly be racism but if you have prejudice against a whole country and everything about it then...China is a country. F u. Go learn what racism is, pliz. Why say that.? Of all countries to be averse to I think China is justifiably pretty high on the list. |

Conceptualhero said: Avicebrons said: Why are you using a game's popularity as an argument for animation? They are two COMPLETETLY different industries. I can confidently say that most of Genshin Impact's audience are anime fans given the style of art of the game. On MyAnimeList, many people have stated they won't watch Chinese anime because they are made by the Chinese and because the language sounds horrid compared to Japanese. Genshin Impact is proof that if you replace the language and dub it in either English or Japanese, then it can be popular even if it is made by a Chinese company. No. In fact it's not proof of anything. Again, they are two MASSIVELY DIFFERENT industries. You can literally play Genshin on mute and completely ignore/skip all of the story, and yet still enjoy your time. The same can't be said for animes. I can even say that I've played Genshin. And when I did, I skipped the story cause I thought it was garbage and I listened to music at the same time. It was only the gameplay that kept me interested. So I reiterate: There is no correlation, nor can any conclusion be made between Genshin's popularity and the possibility of Chinese animation being popular. You also forget the fact that Genshin is much more easily accessible because it's for free and for mobile. So again, two different industries. |

| I don't have any interest at all in Chinese/Korean animation or Genshin at all. (2) not racist, I don't watch anime for the hype/cool stories but for the slice of life bullshit that Chinese and Korean stuff can just never pull off the same way. So they will forever be separate for me. I can watch them as cartoons but can't acknowledge them as anime. |

| idk why everyone is all like "it needs english or japanese dub", mandarin doesn't sound that bad once you get used it it |
| Cool but what about Chinese identity? Genshin Impact is just wannabe Japanese game. Why should I care about mimic when I have actual Japanese games which are great? Just because Chinese game utilize anime style? It's not so difficult and the fact that big anime studios hire animators from all corners of the Earth is only additional prove that style is easy to copy but what about identity? I like Japanese games because of its national specific not just because of common anime style, add to that the fact that some Japanese games made in realistic way instead of pure anime. I will watch Chinese cartoons (I don't even know how they should be called) if they will be with its own identity and its own style. |

| @Lawgun i honestly don't care about "national identity." when it comes to shows and games i watch and play. Honkai impact is interesting because it's story is well done the gameplay is fun and the characters are given a depth i enjoy. who cares where it come from if it's enjoyable? if anything it's more weird to say "oh i only watch it because it was made in x country." why does that even matter? even anime takes influence from western animations and comics. also @Conceptualhero Hitori No Shita is already massively popular so not sure what you mean by "proof that chinese anime can be popular." when examples have existed for years. |

Conceptualhero said: LordSozin said: Genshin being successful don't speak anything to Chinese anime. I don't understand this absurd take. From what I have gathered from people on here, most refuse to watch Chinese anime on the notion of it being a "CCP" product or they just don't like China in general. If Genshin Impact managed to become to successful internationally, then I would think that many people aren't strictly oppose to media created in China or by a Chinese company. Chinese companies tend to have a negative stigma, especially with people living in the west. I know people on here always take politics into everything. When it comes to China, their brainwashed perception of China can't be changed. Anything coming out that country distaste them. But that's not really the problem here. I feel that Chinese anime isn't popular is precisely because negative connotation that China receives in the west. And to be honest, games and anime are a complete different genres we are playing here. I feel there's already prove that Chinese anime can flourish because there are ones out there. |

| Genshim Impact had an anime? Am I missing out on something? And, yes, Chinese anime can be popular or, in fact, it may already be popular. I'm not fond of the language, so am not gonna watch it. |

Conceptualhero said: Aren't Chinese companies frowned upon due to spyware and shit? That's also one of the reasons I stopped playing both Honkai and Genshin Impact. The other reason is because I find the game to be too repetitive and the grinding is hell. LordSozin said: Genshin being successful don't speak anything to Chinese anime.

| I'd rather have Honkai made into anime. China's gaming industry has been growing steadily for a few years now. I don't really see their anime industry going that strong until they actually start making more anime that's internationally appealing. Most chinese animation are Wuxias, and it just isn't a very popular genre outside of China. The average person won't be able to name more than three wuxia movies, that after being explained what it refers to. |
| Just 'cause Genshin is popular doesn't mean Chinese shows can also be popular, it's the only game I know from China and it isn't even an anime. |
 In this world shrouded in darkness, I learned there was someone who’d been struggling along with me. That alone is enough.  |

Chinese animated shows just need English and/or Japanese dubs. It sounds to me like you're trying to convince yourself more than anybody else. The people that say it'll never happen... yeah, you're not gonna convince them. The people that have watched and enjoyed some, probably already have some thoughts along the same line as you. So technically you aren't convincing them either. Then there's the people that just aren't interested in Chinese anime. The reasons don't really matter, that's their choice. They won't care either way, so once again, you aren't convincing them. That just leaves you. The Chinese equivalence of anime has the potential to become as popular as anime, sure, but if it does or not, on a larger scale than just one title, remains to be seen. |
 You're never too old to watch anime. If I ever stop watching anime, check my pulse I'm likely dead. I wake up with coffee & anime, I go to sleep with coffee & anime. Sorry if my sarcasm is bad, it's not my first language. |
