Hey Yea Forums, is there any cartoon that's even remotely as quality as Over the Garden Wall?

Nope. Not American at least.

There is, but what benefits OTGW is its short, concentrated runtime. Most great shows eventually get muddied with how much they have to produce. That’s why shows that lasted for one good season are better regarded, holding shit constant for 50 episodes is hard
Anime can never compete when all you have to spam here showing “superiority” is DBZ and Naruto

In Western animation Over the Garden Wall isn't a common thing, the color themselves were a thing people working for CN thought wasn't possible since the colors are very unusual for cartoons and the backgrounds were complicated for them. They called a specialist had a time working for them to ask them if it was possible to animate Over the Garden

Europe worked with this kind of animation, if something I could suggest Italian animation (some movies). The colors are something Europe and Japan can handle usually but Europe doesn't have so many things, they prefer films

Some animes have this level though

Only retarded Americans think OTGW is good.

Based

a lot actually, but 99% of the people here are too blind to see it

I personally think Hilda was as good as OTGW

Art is art wherever you are

Take some Italian art for an European comic

OTGW is good because it draws on the roots of its culture for the palette to create a story about introspection, experience and being. art which does so tends to be held in high regard across cultures. examples of anime which draw on root japanese culture would likely be comparable, but i'm not much of a history buff so i can't give examples. however cowboys, medieval knights and samurai are all more or less the same thing within their respective cultures. otgw is not a cowboy tale because its setting is more modern than that of a cowboy tale. so what is slightly more modern than a samurai?

You're really gonna have to cite this if you expect anyone to believe it.

Not him but user what the hell are you talking about?

Well the modern section obviously is, but the show as a whole is antebellum America which is well before the cowboy Wild West era.

Get mad bugperson

Elijah Wood's greatest work since LOTR

wow i would not have guessed that. I based what i said on architecture that you typically see in cowboy movies which is like, plank huts and stuff but i guess that could be a function of economics more so than time period

Stay bitter fag

wait actually
>wild west
1607–1912 (territorial expansion)
1783–1920 (myth of the Old West)
>antebellum
The Antebellum Period in American history is generally considered to be the period before the civil war and after the War of 1812, although some historians expand it to all the years from the adoption of the Constitution in 1789

What is generally considered to be the Wild West, and is almost universally depicted in film and television all transpired post-Civil War. Billy the Kid died in 1881, Jesse James in 1882 for example. Mostly this transpired in the period 1870-1900.

yeah man they should have just talked about power levels for thirty episodes then killed the beast with an energy blast, fuck introspection.

Why this a tv show and not just a movie? It's total run time wasn't even 2 hours.

More New England than Antebellum. Antebellum has more of a connotation with Southern culture, which OTGW is not.
