LOL Regular Show is one of the most popular 2010's cartoons, it is in no way niche. Comedy in no way affects character development. There are a lot of cartoons that build up to certain events and events do carry over, it's obvious you know nothing about what you are talking about. The comedy is mainly satire which is a lot funnier than anime characters making stupid faces or some tsundere bitch punching a loser in the balls for no reason. |

| The issue I've always had with western cartoons is that its so few and far between to get something that is TV-14 TV-MA that is an actual drama and not a episodic comedy or at the worst putrid trash like mr pickles that only exists to be offensive and gross. Thats probably why I am loving samurai jack so much and why I enjoyed spawn alot as a kid(dont know if it holds up could be terrible for all I know), they used the medium well to tell a darker story. I dont think things need to be adult rated to tell a good story, im just saying I think western animation is greatly held back by the focus on kids especially when people try to make a more explicit series and cant due to that idea that cartoons are for kids. Samurai jack is the big one that comes to mind cause it was always meant to be what season 5 has been just no one would allow it at CN during the time. Theres serious talent just being wasted and it doesnt help that alot oof traditional 2d animation has been weeded out over the past decade and a half, I fucking miss the old dreamworks 2d animation. |

| @DrGeroCreation I don't know why you're on an anime forum. What's the point if you are so adamant on calling western cartoons superior because it has more controversial topics and "realistic" designs and character songs? As I said, Japanese and Americans have different cultures. No one wants to watch an anime taking on Shinzo Abe. And there are a lot of anime parodying Japanese culture. |

Omkar_Nagwade said: I LIKE both anime and cartoons. I CANNOT only like anime. Being on an anime forum doesn't mean I can't like cartoons as well or see cartoons being superior to anime in certain aspects. Likewise as I said I don't want to watch a cartoon about relativity.

Yeah more variation of bouncing boobs.Referential humor. We don't have to try anything of our own in the Cartoon master race. Ultimately cartoons are for ratings. Even within the harem genre there is far more variation. |
|
| @DrGeroCreation If you want to know what American cartoons Japanese people watch, then the most common answer is The Simpsons. When I asked my sensei why they watch it, they said that it's got black humor and that it's really dark. Other than that, some of them even watch Courage The Cowardly Dog, Marvel and DC cartoons and Ed,Edd & Eddy. So, in general, people watch more anime than cartoons I guess. |
|
| @genesic123 They aren't all that different from each other. Usually set in highschool, loser guy gets a harem out of nowhere, sometimes superpowers are involved etc. There are different genres of cartoons as well. Mystery: Gravity Falls, Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated, Justice League Gods and Monsters, Wolverine and the X men. Scifi - Rick and Morty, Duck Dodgers, Futurama, Star Trek TAS, Electric City Sol - Flintstones, Weekenders, Doug, King of the Hill, As Told by Ginger, Hey Arnold, Clarence, Ed, Edd and Eddy, Monster High (sol of monster teenaged girls), 6Teen, Stoked, Lloyd in Space Cyberpunk - Aeon Flux, Spicy City @Omkar_Nagwade I've already know the cartoons Japanese fans like already thanks to a thread on Crunchyroll http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2016/02/19-1/japanese-anime-fans-pick-their-favorite-foreign-animation More Japanese people watch anime than cartoons but not worldwide.

| @genesic123 LOL no. Cartoons have far more settings hence why as you said the settings always changes.

| Because they're not good. The fact that Avatar is my second favorite show after Naruto proves I'm not prejudiced. But other than that, there just aren't really any American cartoons that can compare to anime. At least not serious ones. I do watch and enjoy some adult comedy cartoons like Family Guy and South Park but that's really a totally different thing. Watching Ben Ten just isn't entertaining to me. I watched shows like that when I was a kid but once I discovered anime I pretty much stopped. |

| @EcchiLordMamster I never said anything about fapping to that character, I just find her to be way cuter than anime lolis. Not everything is about fapping. I'm not expecting anyone to do anything I was just discussing my preferences with you. I know very well that everyone here on Mal prefers anime girls and hates cartoon female characters. There are female anime characters I like but I generally don't fap to anime girls. Whenever I go on rule34 for zero suit samus I actually always get annoyed and turned off when she is drawn in an anime style because it makes her look too cutesy and little girlish.

It would never seriously take on Abe.It seems to me that you either haven't watched Gintama or made this little list on purpose for the sake of the irony xD Gintama is a shonen. It can never take things too far or too bold. If you want satire with a lot of cursing, heavy themes, gore or sexual references (though Gintama, unsurprisingly for an anime, has plenty of the latter), check other demographics. And no, it hasn't specifically referenced Abe from what I recall. Still, close enough. In terms of variety of themes Gintama has parodied, it is certainly not behind South Park. It has mocked other shows, Japanese traditions and values, religion, gender roles, real life celebrities, the medium as a whole (the tropes, the creative process, the working conditions) and the fans. And no, it didn't portray antipiracy as the enemy. It made it more complicated and meta. The second movie starts with a frame by frame parody of a popular antipiracy ad in Japan: the twist, however, is that the "footage" this character saved is the basis for the entire storyline of the movie. |

idk, I'm watching it right now (shortly before the end of season 1) and it certainly is fun but it's kind of a clusterfuck/DC wank with a million billion characters from the DC verse appearing in every episode and most of them don't get properly fleshed out or explained and unless you are already a DC expert or look up each of them 95% of them will just seem like cardboard villains/heroes. It also kinda suffers from being way too episodic most of the time, no matter how impressive or urgent or large-scale a threat feels it is always resolved by the end of the episode. Avatar and Naruto (minus the fillers) are still way better imo, with more complexity and worldbuilding and amore gripping main plot. YJ is on par in terms of character development for the main cast and stuff, and personally I find it quite entertaining to see a slideshow of basically every DC character ever including 90% I never heard of before, but it is underwhelming in a bunch of very relevant aspects in which at least Naruto and Avatar are vastly superior. Everything outside the main characters just feels rushed and like it's not getting as much screentime as it needs to be relevant/interesting. The influx of large scale threats in basically every episode makes it hard to take serious at times and I wish there was more episodes dedicated to just slice of life stuff or smaller threats so it feels more realistic and less over the top. I'm sure it's a better experience if you are already very, very familiar with the DC verse but I'm somewhat familiar with it and it's still pretty overwhelming and I just blend out all the random villains because I can't keep up with all the names and they disappear at the end of the episode every time anyway. I just don't think a show that so heavily relies on a strong familiarity with the whole DC verse is that good from a neutral perspective. If you're a dedicated DC fanboy it's probably an awesome treat, but there are no barriers that prevent anyone from enjoying stuff like Avatar or Naruto and that alone makes them more worthwile for everyone who isn't a hardcore DC fan already. |
