I'm bothered by this because instead of adapting the tons of amazing manga, they are choosing some cheap webtoons for some quick publicity for the webtoon app.

You just hate webtoon. Just because you hate it doesn't mean it's entirely bad.

Besides, these popular webtoons have been around for a very long time. It's not like they came into existence or got popular only like last year or what. God of High School started in 2011. Tower of God started in 2010. So I don't understand your "quick publicity" statement. Webtoon is already pretty popular as it is even without this so-called "quick publicity".

They should've atleast taken care of those red/pink Noses in the Anime. Seriously WTH.
Anyway.. its still going to be a million times better than most of the shitty japanese stories being adapted into anime in the last few years.. Korean Manhwa is the future of Anime.

There's plenty of amazing manga that sadly don't get an anime adaptation just because the main trend in Japan currently is that to adapt isekai light novels.
Anyway, the adaptation of these Korean webtoons is only the result of a commercial deal between the Korean company Naver and Crunchyroll.
If you think this deal can change completely the landscape of Japanese animation, well, I doubt it, it's not like all Japanese animation is produced/co-produced by Crunchyroll and/or other Western/Korean companies (by produced/co-produced I mean they put the money, of course). Actually, almost nobody knows these webtoons in Japan (and it's normal, by considering how big their comics market is).
Also, I think Korean studios could start to produce their own cartoons, after all they should own the know-how at this point, exactly how China, after years of copying Japanese manga art style and tropes, and working for Japanese animation studios.
But in the case of Korean made cartoons, obviously we won't speak about Japanese animation ("anime") anymore, but only about products derived from Japanese school of animation and comics. There are also some American and European comics and cartoons heavily influenced by Japanese school of comics and animation, but I don't consider those "manga/anime".

These Korean/Western/Chinese companies commissioning the production of some anime to Japanese studios is seen from someone like something completely new, but it's historically false. Especially in the 80s and 90s, Japanese studios worked on tons of Western cartoons, for example this one is a huge classic, and it was animated mainly by Tokyo Movie Shinsha.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiC5_qROyMw
Just because now the customers of Japanese studios are also Chinese and Koreans, this doesn't mean there's some kind of "revolution" in Japanese animation.
Japanese studios always accepted orders from foreign clients.
But if we want to speak for real about Japanese animation, we have to look at the trends inside Japan that are an actual expression of the creativity of Japanese artists.

But they are not popular at all in the Japanese market, so people could avoid to say that they will change "anime history", just because they are popular in the West. In the first place, it's not even right to call these webtoons "shounen/shoujo/isekai, etc." by using Japanese terms, since they aren't Japanese. Just because these products are heavily influenced by Japanese art style and contents, this doesn't make them Japanese.
According to my opinion, Japan will continue to produce animation according to its own taste, like it always did. And if you want to see how anime are changing, you must always look at what the Japanese like.
Everything that is made by Japan but following the orders of foreign customers don't reflect the actual trends of Japanese comics and animation, and the taste of Japanese artists and audience. It's like if Hollywood makes a movie funded by Chinese money. It will be an American movie only in the surface, but the mastermind will be Chinese and it won't reflect American mindset, taste and values.

Anyway, it's actually a bit absurd how some people think that Japanese studios need of Korean webtoons to promote themselves. It's actually the contrary, since Japanese animation is popular everywhere, and currently for Koreans it's more covenient to call their stuff "anime/shoujo/shounen", etc. rather than by Korean words.
Someday maybe they won't need to associate their stuff to Japanese words anymore.

If some people want to see which anime are popular in Japan currently, they can look at this link:
https://mipon.org/anime-popular-right-now-japan/
Tower of God isn't in the top ten in any list. And we haven't to forget that many popular shows have been postponed, like Re:Zero and Oregairu. TOG hadn't even this huge competition.
Simply, Japanese people are not familiar with Korean webtoons at all, and overall they don't care about what is popular in the West, so it's not like suddenly every Japanese studio will adapt tons of Korean webtoons, this idea is really stupid.
Japanese studios will continue to adapt whatever Western companies will ask them, but also what the Japanese audience actually loves.

these webtoon adaptations' main target market is the global audience (includes korea n japan)

Except for the fact they are Crunchyroll originals and developed according to a Crunchyroll and Naver project, and Crunchyroll isn't even a streaming service in Japan. So no, Japan isn't one of the main targets for these adaptations.

Manhwa adaptation is good and all but.....
Please give me my Berserk adaptation.

Anime was it's best 20000 years ago, when cavemen drew art with real depth.
Modern anime is all garbage. I miss great old days of anime.

It's literally 2 or so webtoons. Millions of manga have already been adapted to anime since a long time ago as opposed to 2 or so webtoons. And you're complaining about this? Seriously?

Just for the record, One Punch Man started as a webcomic, and the art started off pretty crap too. It's not webtoon, but it's a webcomic either way.

i'm not complaining, just saying that i find it to be BS that these webtoons are getting adaptations when most anime/manga fans don't even read webtoons, and on top of that there's still amazing manga yet to be adapted.

I agree with him about the fact there are still many amazing manga that deserve to be adapted rather than these webtoons, but again, this is the result of a commercial deal between a Western company and a Korean company, so it's obvious it was made to promote Korean stuff.
This doesn't mean that now Japanese studios will adapt mainly Korean webtoons, some people are really absurd.

Well, I saw some Chinese webtoons and the art is generally superior to Korean webtoons at least.
Anyway the point isn't if these Korean webtoons deserve a chance or not, again, Naver is a Korean company, what do you people think they want to promote by doing a deal with Crunchyroll, Russian literature?

I'm not expecting anything, but people hyping these up as anime is wrong, after all, CR has RWBY on their platform, and that's made in the USA if i'm not mistaken. People seem to have the idea that CR is an Anime Streaming service when clearly by sponsoring these korean comic adaptations, they're proving that they arent. I clicked the link you sent above and found some interesting things. (I'm gonna use this reply to illustrate why i think that Webtoon adaptations aren't "anime" as we traditionally call it and how it doesn't reflect what people in Japan (main target for anime) want.)
Let's take the example of Tower of God, currently airing. https://gyazo.com/5e2f38f1f0ca8e68e6f6f7300a9a8335

It is airing on TV in Japan, so is it doing well? do people want to watch it?
Well, lets's look at this:
https://gyazo.com/84adb8d2ece6f53ac45529f055be5d07
Tower of God is nowhere in the top 10 most popular airing shows in Japan, but also, not even in the top10 currently airing action shows:
https://gyazo.com/6771938c1722f874f1ca76e10a30f4f5
Sooo... What gives?
Tower of God is clearly a show made to be sold to people outside of Japan, the west in particular. Anime in it's traditional sense is a cartoon made for the Japanese people, and since clearly ToG interests no-one in Japan, is it really an "anime"?
Maybe i'm overthinking this, but this deal between CR and Webtoon isn't to make "anime", it's to make *cartoons* based off of *webtoons*. They try to ride off of the anime hype train so to speak by using a Japanese dub and having it made by a Japanese studio, a studio that could've made a different adaptation of an actual Japanese manga series that the Japanese actually wanted to see. Yet a slot in the season is taken by an ad for a korean webtoon company.

It's not like Japanese companies are discovering how amazing Korean webtoons are, like some people suggest. This idea is what makes some webtoons fanboys annoying.
About OPM, before to be adapted as an anime, the whole webcomic was remade by an expert artist.

I understand your point, but I think it's still an anime because the job was made mainly by a Japanese studio, it's not like the Japanese studio was used only for some outsourcing job. Japanese studios made many anime adaptations also of Western books, and they are still anime, of course. But you are right about one thing: also when Japanese studios adapted Western books, their target was always the Japanese audience. In this case the Japanese studios are only working on these adaptations because they accepted the order from some foreign companies, whose target isn't mainly the Japanese audience, so these webtoons adaptations don't reflect Japanese trends.

Maybe he is annoyed by the fact they are adapted by Japanese studios. They could be adapted by some Korean or American studio that copies the anime style or whatever. I agree with him about this point, because it's true that Japanese studios are already working on so many projects every season, so our chances to see some manga adapted could be limited by this trend determined by Western/Korean/Chinese whatever orders.
I believe the quality of anime started to decline also because many Western streaming services are asking Japanese studios to work on this or that project that they think could be successful in the West. There are literally too many series every season, and the Western streaming services could play a heavy role in this situation.

Well, had a good laugh tonight with these 2 dumb-asses arguing and giving their opinions on a bunch of stuff that they have almost no clue about except for what they heard and read here and there. They think what they are talking about are facts like they work in the industry and know what's going on behind the scenes. Good one guys thank you for the entertainment!

Oh and btw to the one that said China copied Japanese style of art and animation, let me inform you that it's the other way around since ancient times. Japan copied China's art for hundreds of years along with a lot of other things. Also a lot of animators from China, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, America are working on a ton of anime shows this decade , majority of the high quality shows like some recent ones Mob Psycho, Fate/Grand Order Babylonya and some of the best animated episodes like Fate/Apocrypha's 22 Mob Pyscho II episode 5, Boruto 65 have been done by mostly foreign animators. Some of the biggest names in the industry right now like Hakuyu Go (director for Apocrypha 22, MP II 5, All Might vs Nomu), Weiling Zhang(Boruto 65, MP II, Carole and Tuesday), GEM(MP II, Black Clover episode 100, Castlevania), chengxi huang(Boruto 65+other cuts , Naruto final fight, MHA, Castlevania) and even the director of Castlevania Spencer Wan is slowly making a name for himself (worked on Boruto 65 + other cuts and recently worked on a chinese show Hitori no Shita that's been making a lot of fuss in the animation industry this past week for how good it looks).

this looks like a shonen nekketsu with somewhat better animation than the average (but it's just a trailer, the actual series will look worst), I really don't know what to thinks from Korea and her works, but tower of god was so decepcionant. I really don't expect anything.

Some of the biggest names in the industry right now like Hakuyu Go (director for Apocrypha 22, MP II 5, All Might vs Nomu), Weiling Zhang(Boruto 65, MP II, Carole and Tuesday), GEM(MP II, Black Clover episode 100, Castlevania), chengxi huang(Boruto 65+other cuts , Naruto final fight, MHA, Castlevania) and even the director of Castlevania Spencer Wan is slowly making a name for himself (worked on Boruto 65 + other cuts and recently worked on a chinese show Hitori no Shita that's been making a lot of fuss in the animation industry this past week for how good it looks).

I know I shouldn't even reply to this kind of post, because sounds a bit like blatant trolling.
Yeah, obviously both China and Korea are copying Japan animation, this is happening a bit also in the West.
It has nothing to do with "ancient times, hundreds of years", etc. Animation/cinema in general didn't even exist in the "ancient times".

Again, I don't know why I am even replying, oh well.

why are you bothered by this?

yeah yeah yeah so many, but when the adaptation is released and does not meet your expectations, you will blaspheme and throw it away. aaaahh a mortal human, always feeling lacking.

I'm bothered by this because instead of adapting the tons of amazing manga, they are choosing some cheap webtoons for some quick publicity for the webtoon app.

Yes, you mean Boruto? Or any YuGiOh from the past decade? Cardfight? I can keep going, but it never was and it never will be this type of business deal keeping "worthy manga" of being adapted. There are tons of animes every year that are awful, you really think they will stop doing that? Did you really think that is an worthy argument?
