INB4 people say it doesn't count as anime,.

It doesnt count as anime.

>western writers, western storyboarders, western VAs
of course it doesn't count as anime, why would it

Adi Shankar made everyone on staff watch Ninja Scroll and Berserk to get inspiration for how the series should be in terms of tone.

and? guys who made avatar the last airbender watched flcl.

I like it when creators take initiative like that.

Thank goodness I got here before people said this is anime.

What are you talking about season 2 was fucking awful. How many episodes were the main characters doing absolutely nothing?
It looked decent animation wise.
But story and everything else was garbage.

The "dubbing" alone makes it unwatchable, everything looks like its mistimed

Not anime.

The dub is actually pretty good, this is from someone who would usually never say this.

Sjw feminist garbage, into the trash it goes.

Not only is it not good, it also is not anime

>Everythign from the est that I don't like is SJW
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
FUCKING HILARIOUS
Well le meme'd friend now fuck off

>Expecting Yea Forums to actually have taste or appreciate anything that isn't a bunch of pedophile bait
You ask too much of these braindead losers.

Fight choreography was good and Dracula was a great villain. The dialogue is pretty cringey though especially the banter between Alucard and Trevor.
>Hurr durr look at these 2 characters repeatedly saying fuck!

>I'm killing our boy Lisa
They made Dracula too emotional

>le church is ebil xDDD

>How dare they copy the source material!
brainlet, think your shitposts through next time.

Everything wrong with this production:
>Isaac got Netflix'd;
>Adi Shankar is one of the pajeets that started the fuss about Apu in the Simpson, making him hard to trust
>the female cast was waaayy too OP and carried the whole second season on their back, bullying the male cast out of relevance into secondary roles of support
>everything good about the plot was already in the Castelvania universe, everything bad was added by the new writers

Everything good:
>season 1
>the quality of the animations
>the fighting scenes
>the voice actors
>the humor was ok

2nd season could have been done in 3-4 episodes. It was padded like crazy with vampire politics.

>Isaac got Netflix'd
That was unironically one of the few things I enjoyed about the season.

>the humor was ok
It mostly wasn't.

I hated this series.

I'll defend your thread once they decide to adapt the best Castlevania title.

Reminder that S3 is 10 episodes long and Dracula is gone for now.

Literally nobody said that, shitlord. Netflix made VEG, one of the most amazing, meaningful, beautiful works of anime.

Good but the dialogue felt awkward as hell

It doesnt show.
Castelvania is fucking retarded on every level.
The writing is really bad.

oh fuck off, Castelvania is garbage.

Tried really hard to like it but the writing was so bad i had to stop after a few episodes.
It really was that bad.

it's ok, 1st season kinda boring, 2nd one was better. If it had Japanese dub it would probably be great

Attached: 1507993909538.png (327x300, 85K)

Season 1 was ok.
Season 2 was meh. Spent too much time in the library, too much time with lieutenants' backstory, too much time in politicking and not enough time for castlevaniaing.

so its historically accurate then?

>watching Castlevania at all
Cringe. Go play the collection instead, it's better.

>no Grant
Dropped at episode 0. Fuck Netflix and fuck you.

The misandrist cunt is the bad guy and is a retard who loses despite having a huge advantage.

It was shit though. It was trying too hard to be Game of Thrones with it's fantastical political intrigue but it had to shit on every character to do it.
The entire second season having the heroes literally fucking around for 6 out of the 8 episodes only to have the castle teleported to them is epitome of shit tier writing.

Not that user but we both know the series doesn't play it up that way. They play Carmilla up as a master manipulator who is suffering a temporary setback, ready to make a comeback during Season 3.

Netflix doesn't produce good anime

>copy the source material
>Sypha wasn't an agent of the church
>Trevor wasn't called by the church to fight off Dracula
>no Grant
yeah ok

Thanks for proving my point

>women overpowered everyone
Carmilla is the only relevant villian besides Isaac and Hector in the series. Sypha kills less vamps at the end than the guys but is still shown to be super capable and powerful i.e. warping in Dracula's castle. I don't know how you could think this desu.

Carmilla is fucked next season and the castle still exists so Dracula will come back.

It doesn't, it's made by a streetshitter.

Netflix doesn't produce every single show it licenses and distributes

>Orange studio
Even tho i liked HnK work, when i look at shaft's 3-gatsu i don't understand the choice.

Castlevania animation was a fucking travesty, it started out ok in S1 and turned into a near-GoT abomination.

Alucard and Trevor acting like elementary schoolers all the time was just jarring and out of character.
Alucard flipping the finger? Fucking really? Also lolflying sword. And no, it wasn't a familiar, it was just his normal heirloom sword.

Isaac getting turned into a WE WUZ was bad, but in the bigger picture irrelevant.

Powers were all over the place, music was good only when they did Bloody Tears during the castle battle scene, pacing was horrendous.

Carmilla got butchered to the point she's literally the exact opposite of who she's supposed to be.
Dracula turned into some doomer sympathetic villain of circumstance was absolutely vomit inducing.

Really, S2 ruined anything that could have made this into a good animation.

nah i think it had decent animation, also too long didnt read lmao nigga it's a cartoon

>literally shit all over the lore

Unironically kys

Too coherent and mature to be an anime.
You can keep your shitty moeblobs, waifubait haremshits, and boring NEETS getting trucked into Dragon Quest #46455

you mean that SJW, atheist trash that isn't even faithful to the source material? yeah that thing is pure cancer

I mean the church is only responsible for burning a few people and inciting a couple of wars.
Not that much of a big deal.

What a waste of quads.

Good art. Shit plot.

Why do you consider castlevania good after that second season?

governments have done way worse things and I haven't seen a single SJW shitting on any other other government besides Trump's

Is this sincerely a good show?

Season 1 was good, season 2 was fucking horrific and gave me ass cancer

Wait, this is a western production?
I thought it was anime.

Castlevania was great.

I know you're just meming but it's clearly anime styled.

Who gives a fuck nigger? It's about the style, the content. If the anime Code Geass was made by western writers, western story-boarders and western VAs but still looked and sounded exactly the same are you saying that it wouldn't be anime? That's beyond stupid.

Good joke.

Because I'm not basing it on past material such as the video games, but as a standalone entry. Isaac being black is fine, I didn't know Grant existed so I didn't miss him, I liked the vampire politics, etc.
I thought so. If nothing else it has great art, animation, and english dubbing.

Hang yourself, KHK. No one will fall for your retarded bait. Both Evergarden & Castlevania were great. And Evergarden was obviously not make by Netflix, they only bought the streaming rights for it.

Of course it's not.

I think so. But you should watch it for yourself and find out.

>Of course it's not.
RWBY is a western show trying to be anime as much as possible, why does castlevania get a pass while RWBY doesn't despite the later being closer to anime in both style and content?

>RWBY is a western show trying to be anime as much as possible
>using 3dcg
>trying to be anime as much as possible

Did you miss the part where the anime industry as a whole is using more and more 3DCG each season?

>despite the later being closer to anime in both style and content?
I don't know about content but it's definitely not closer in style. Castlevania is actually has 2D whilst RWBY just used cheap cel shaded cg to imitate the style. Even this unrefined image made by an AI looks more like anime than fucking RWBY.

Attached: example-44757.jpg (1024x1024, 80K)

No, I obviously know they're doing it. It's to save time and money. CG is killing real anime just like it killed 2D in the west. It's not actual anime, just cancerous shit that's forced into anime.

>cancer that is forced into anime to cut corners is now anime

I guess filtered live action or actual live action is also anime now too.

>why does castlevania get a pass
It doesn't. It shouldn't even be on Yea Forums, it's not anime.

Anime isn't a style you absolute moron. It's a synonym for eastern animation, even shows made in Japan that do not look like standard anime are considered anime, e.g. pic related, Neko Neko Nihonshi.

Attached: 230530.jpg (400x225, 93K)

Tone and action scenes are pretty good but the dialogue is absolute ass, just reminded me of why I don't watch western shows

That's obviously not anime. It's flash cancer. Lurk moar.

Despite what you may think, you're complaining about the production method rather than the style.
It's like saying manga doesn't have an anime artstyle because it's not animated: anime in this context is refering to an artstyle of japanese origin rather than the medium.

Don't say it to me, say it to the retards shilling this cartoon.

>It's a synonym for eastern animation
It was.
>Anime isn't a style
It wasn't, now it is.

Neko Neko Nihonshi absolutely look anime, PASWG would have been a better example.

>Don't say it to me, say it to the retards shilling this cartoon

Absolutely not. It's well known that 3DCG can express anime/manga styles properly.

Almost nobody cares about Grant unfortunately. If there's one thing consistent it's this franchise's damn determination to make sure Grant doesn't exist

Why the original complain about Castlevania being more anime than a cartton trying its best to mimick anime artstyle by virtue of not having 3DCG?

I can't believe how many retarded newfags flooded Yea Forums. It's not anime, 'style' doesn't mean anything. For example, Moomin is anime because it was made by nips. This shit - it isn't. It doesn't even look 'anime style' except for Alucard. All other characters are pretty much typical western style cartoon. They don't even have 'anime eyes' if you want to go this way. It was written by amerimutts and drawn by koreans. I bet if the original game wasn't Japanese no one would ever assume that it has any connection to anime.

Okay, it was great, I'll give you that.
But now imagine how much BETTER it would be if it wasn't made by Netflix.

>by virtue of not having 3DCG
Because 3DCG literally cannot express the anime style properly. Anime is fundamentally not 3D. Stop being so dense.

Pretty much this. It's like "Sakuga". In Japanese it means hand drawings but when imported into English it refers, more restrictively, to those sequences of noticeably higher quality, within hand drawn anime.

Don't say that to me, say that to the one who claimed otherwise.
And no, the netflix adaptation of castlevania is not anime, it's a fucking cartoon FFS.

>isn't even anime
>still better than 80% of seasonal trash
what did japan mean by this?

Nope, your average isekai is unironically better written than that.

It's anime styled so it's anime.

>It's anime styled
It isn't.
>so it's anime
It's a cartoon.

Fuck you and fuck being made by nips. That cancer means nothing. That doesn't mean it will be good, nips could make the worst cancer imaginable but tha dosn't mean it's anime.

>They don't even have 'anime eyes' if you want to go this way.
It has the 3 most fundamental characteristics.
>2D transformation
>cel shading
>generally anatomically correct
Lacking large eyes and reflection rings hardly mean anything when you've got the fundamentals. A newfag like you shouldn't go around calling other new.

>cartoon
Stop throwing this word around because it's misleading. Cartoon denotes and exaggerated and humorous style which castlevnia is very far removed from.

The dialogue for this series suck, 90% of it is random swearing and the "banter" falls flat most of the time, but I'll admit that it has some really nice action sequences, that assault on the castle with Bloody Tears playing on the background was 10/10

it is anime styled bro

>It isn't.
It is. Just without the large eyes and reflection rings but those are not the most fundamental characteristics. It looks kinda like ufotable shit.

ITT: Butthurt neckbeards can't admit that objectively good anime is anime, or that it's objectively better than 90% of their pedobait, isekai and generic combat shounen garbage.

The fact that you lot put so much of your personal self-worth into this is hilarious, but then I remember that your's is the retarded generation that made people who play video games on a video website "famous", paying them millions just to see their reactions. One of the most worthless forms of entertainment to exist, so its no wonder you all would be so retarded as to try and bash one of the best shows in years just because it exists outside of your "sekrit club".

>Stop throwing this word around because it's misleading
Only when you stop misusing anime :^)

Anatomic correctness doesn't mean anime, though.

Stuff that have the large eyes are "more anime" than the stuff that don't.

Source? And by that, I mean a direct link to the interview instead of a screenshot, there's people out there who still think the "anime was a mistake" screenshot is real.
And even then, there's plenty of example of japanese animation that doesn't feature large eyes and is still anime.

It has more than one meaning in Japan. Lurk moar, newfag.

It doesn't and it was garbage.

I do wish decent actors would start to do voice over work for anime again though. If I have to listen to another minimum-wage internet junkie pretending to emote again because my friends are too fucking lazy to read, I'll go insane.

The only thing that makes it anime or not anime is the country it's made in.

Granted it's basically a meaningless distinction anyway.

Obviously not. Because Gundam has CEL shading and is generally anatomically correct, which are both more fundamental characteristics than large eyes.

No.

When you say cel-shading do you mean just shading? Because anime haven't been drawn on cel's since the 2000s.
And cel-shading usually means when you make a 3D object look 2D.

great show can't wait for season 3 hopefully more time is spent in the titular castle

That's not how loanwords work retards.

But then your definition of anime being "generally anatomically correct" doesn't apply anymore.

>When you say cel-shading do you mean just shading?
NO. I mean, in general terms, the art of shading in blocks. How new can you fucking be? Jesus Christ. No flat tones like the spogebob shit or pure gradients.

>It has the 3 most fundamental characteristics
Who decided these characteristics specifically for anime? You? Fuck off retard.

Anime and manga are mediums made in Japan and Japan only. Now fuck off back to tv or wherever you came from.

That's retards comparing 3 tone shading in tv anime to the 4/5 in OVAs. There's a big difference between this and fucking flat tones.

It's what they are mouthbreather. And the have different meanings in each language.

>It's unironically an anime.
No, fuck off, you're basically saying that every cartoon discussed on Yea Forums is anime and should be allowed on Yea Forums.

There is nothing specifically anime stylistic in Castlevania. Literally nothing. And anime isn't a style at all. Anime is just a medium made by Japanese. It has numerous different styles.

All of those also apply for cartoon.
Also answer and

Obviously not fucking anime. That ugly shit looks nothing like anime.

I'm so happy they decided to go with Warren Ellis so he could shoe-horn his manchild edgyness in and removed one of the main characters of the game and replaced him with the very important and non-existent evil priest character so he could stick it to organized religion, and have Trevor and Dracula swear a ton like they do in the games, too.
No, stick this series up your ass. I'm so sad they had to shit up the amazing Western animation in this show with Ellis' disgusting fucking writing. Fuck Netflix too.

Why are you trying so hard? It's not the same style. It's called "chibi style" or "chibi anime style".

I loved this shit. The tone and pacing where pretty great and i liked the main trio despise them being pretty generic. Sure, the story could have used some work and sure it would have been great to see more of the game´s generals and whatnot but consider the following. Not every Castlevania game is a good game. As a matter of fact most Castlevania games are pretty shit except for two or three. I mean, none of us want to see kid Dracula adapted or that one that takes place in that megaman-esque future right?

I'm not the one claiming chibi is not anime, he is since chibi doesn't fit his definition of what is anime.

My point is that they are not the same words, retard. They have different meanings and usages depending on which language they are used in. Meaning you can't use a Japanese definition, of a fucking Japanese word, and pretend it applies to an English word.

>Neither is avatar
It's a little simplistic but it's pretty close to anime style. Depends how strict you are with the definition.

It's not "regular", "full form factor" anime. It's an another cultural thing. He is mentally ill.

No but he's saying that pic related is anime and hence is implying that it should be allowed on Yea Forums.

This.

He already gave his definition
>Generally anatomically correct characters, 2d transformations, CEL shading
All of those apply for batman and it's also the reason why he's saying castlevania is anime and should be allowed on Yea Forums.

Not it doesn't. Only issue was the lack of backlight on the original GBA.

>He already gave his definition
where?

I literally quoted his post
I'll quote them again because it seems you have some issues:
>It has the 3 most fundamental characteristics.
D transformation
>>cel shading
>>generally anatomically correct

>Yes there fucking is. Generally anatomically correct characters, 2d transformations, CEL shading

>All of those apply for batman and it's also the reason why he's saying castlevania is anime and should be allowed on Yea Forums.
There is more to anime style than just the characteristics discussed so far in this thread. Batman the animated series is too simplistic, it notably looks different to the typical anime.

BTAS is lacking other things castlevnia has.

Good, now we can finally agree that the, definition, of his is BS and that both Batman and Castlevania are not anime, right?

Such has? You spent several posts claiming that
>Generally anatomically correct characters, 2d transformations, CEL shading
were the most fundamental things a show needed to be anime and suddenly you're saying that it's not enough?

>[anatomically correct characters, 2d transformations, CEL shading] were the most fundamental things a show needed to be anime

No. Anime have other characteristics like actually have hair-stands drawn and notably more line detail. Castlevnia does this but Batman doesn't. Batman like most western shit has the car drawn in giant or single lazy clumps. Castlevnia is quite a bit closer to anime in style.

Fuck off with that ugly outdated cancer. It's PRE ANIME, before anime developed it's style. Also cherrypicking regardless.

Means nothing. Absolutely fucking nothing. I don't care if monkeys drew it, the content is what matters.

The English word anime has been originally and it still is predominantly used as a shorthand for Japanese animated works. Hell, it's literally what this community is formed around.

What I have never been able to understand is this ardent need some people have to label non-japanese animated works as anime. The work in question doesn't lose or gain anything from it. So my question is what do you have to gain from it.

Also, is interesting how manga doesn't have this problem and it's basically just a comic equivalent of the term anime. My guess would be that it's due to comparative lack of casuals.

So it isn't anime? And then shouldn't be discussed on Yea Forums?

It's "anime" by the jap definition of animation. Also we don't even have a general animation board. We have Yea Forums but that's a cesspool and cartoon denotes a style which is problematic for stuff like castlevania to be there.

Castlevania was better than all recent anime. Avatar will always be my favorite. Japan can't make these kind of shows.

Well it's not. Anime artstyle doesn't make something anime.

I'd be hard-pressed to find something anime that was as convoluted and absolutely boring at the same time as Korra so yes, I agree.

We just need a general "animation" board. Castlevania fits the anime style well but it's definitely not "exaggerated" or "humorous". It feels really out of place on Yea Forums and at home on Yea Forums. But if it cant be here the we need a new board at least.

Animation is for everyone, including children. And just because something is aimed at children, that doesn't mean it's of low quality or that it can't be appreciated as an adult.

Lmao no it doesn't.

Yeah that is the reason as to why Spirited Away and Your Name are the biggest grossing films in Japan.

>Anime is literally famous for being 2d
As was Disney.

>If the anime Code Geass was made by western writers, western story-boarders and western VAs but still looked and sounded exactly the same
False implication. It would never look and sound exactly the same if made the way you described.

Once I homestayed in Japan. All the fucking family, grandmother included, watched One Piece together.

Stop spamming now, troll.

You are just frankly insane. Castlevania is not Yea Forums. Stop

>Once I homestayed in Japan
I'm sure you did

You’re the one who wants to clog up the board with off topic posts.
It is because it’s a western cartoon.

>Castlevania is not Yea Forums.
It is.

It COULD. The "anime is just animation from" spammer here has a weird orientalist attitude. People who car about content are reasonable.

But by definition it's not catoonishly styled. It's not exaggerated or humorous. Calling it a cartoon gives the wrong connotation and implication. It's downright inaccurate.

Yea Forums is for all types of western animation.

Pretty sure it's a Texas studio's first attempt at anime. Before this the closest they received work for in the anime department is Mortal Kombat X, which uh, is pretty far removed from whatever Asian feel the original game had, which wasn't much. Actually if anything this is the studio's first real big break according to wikipedia. Looks like a few Japanese are various places, production and part of the animation studio, but other than that this was a Texan endeavor with New York writers who should have been fired.

>You’re the one who wants to clog up the board with off topic posts.
It's not really a cartoon though. The mods need to make a separate animation board then.

>It is because it’s a western cartoon.
Not that guy but no, it's not a "cartoon".

>a Texas studio's first attempt at anime
To bad the absolutely failed since they weren't Japanese.

ANIMATION. Are you ok with that term? It’s certainly not anime.

Why is called "cartoons and comics" then and not "western animation". Where does Chinese stuff go then also?

>it's not catoonishly styled. It's not exaggerated or humorous
Batman is neither of those and it's not considered anime.
So tell me: Is Batman anime or cartoon?

It is though. It's a western made animation for a western audience, in spite of its many influences from Anime. Panty & Stocking and Space Dandy belongs on Yea Forums for the same reason.

I agree that a western made animation could achieve the look of Code Geass, but even if that did happen, it would not be an anime. Anime is not a style.

Cartoons can be serious too, and anime can be exaggerated or humorous.
Just because it's anime-styled doesn't make it anime by virtue of it having been made in the west. Panty & Stocking might be Western-style but it's still an Anime on virtue of it having been made in Japan by one of the top anime studios, yes. We don't call cartoons "animation" here like they do in Japan, we call them cartoons. They call it anime, not cartoons.

Batman is anime.
There are Japanese producers and animators for the show.

Not on this board.

It's somewhere in-between.

actually I also have a japanese gf and I've lived several times in her parents house. her mother doesnt watch anime at all (except ghibli) but the father sometimes watches what my gf recommends him. I remember fate or houseki no kuni know, for example. he's also a huge logh fan (the original novels). there's also the imouto, with no interest at all in otaku things unlike my gf, but she still watches very popular things like shingeki no kyojin

:-)

>Cartoons can be serious too, and anime can be exaggerated or humorous.
That's not what the definition implies though. That's the problem. It's such a retarded word.

Batman is too good for Yea Forums.

Producers nationality are irrelevant and a few animators is not enough.

It isn’t and you need to accept that.

*now

Feel free to fuck off to Yea Forums.

Okay you orientalist sperg. I'm not gonna argue with a crazy person anymore.

Unless you can come up with a definition of the style that includes all anime, then it will never be a style.

If you want to go all high-brow and start calling them "Mature animation" or some bullshit like they did comics into graphic novels, then by all means go for it, just don't get my Cambodian Propaganda Movies involved in it.

it's a japanese property drawn in an anime style, developed by americans?

aren't most animes animated by koreans, does that make it count as anime?

Tell that to google faggot.

Ah yes, the quoranigger returns.

You’re the crazy one here. I gladly accept your concession.

>aren't most animes animated by koreans
In-betwwen are made there, key animation is still made in Japan by japanese people.
It's the equivalent of saying Apple is a chinese brand because all of their shit are made there.

Not all Japanese animation is anime.

Anime= low quality jap animation

>it's irrelevant if these people are Japanese
>it has to be 100% Japanese
Uh, good luck calling a lot of anime anime now. Really should have thought that through. How Japanese does it have to be? 80%? 90%? 100% would disqualify too many shows.
Batman is far too good for you, sperg.

With anime all those with creative control are Japanese. A animator has little to no actual input in how the show will be.

Google doesn’t define reality.

>aren't most animes animated by koreans, does that make it count as anime?
Do you really think The Simpsons was animated by Americans only?

Do you have an example?

Cool story, now fuck off to Yea Forums.

Seems like they hurt some orientalist retards.

Yes they are because anime is Japanese animation.

Producers don't actually make the anime, they just fund it, At most they give some general guidelines with what should be included. But the creative control is with the different writers and directors.

>cool story
2005 called.

Do you even know the definition of that word?

Castlevania Carmilla was a loyal servant to drac, and helped revive him in one of the sequels.

book Carmilla is a conniving misandrist cunt who gets killed off early.

But that's an anime.

>Plenty have been posted here. Actually read the thread.
Any animated series from Japan is anime.
>Google own the world.
Not an argument.

Let's not forget other no-biggies like banning public teaching of writing to commoners and banning Futhark (phonetic rune writing) except for nobles and clergy.

Other no-biggies include banning public bathing and the banning of practical scientific applications such as herbalism.

Oh and let's not forget the non-issues they did to fellow Christians such as the ones in Constantinople involving the gangrape of nuns.

I don't gve a fuck about "high-brow " or "Mature animation". The show just doesn't have a cartoonish style.

How is it not anime? Because it doesn't fit your arbitrary definition of "anime style"?

>Any animated series from Japan is anime.
t. ponyfucker drone

Yeah, it can have an anime-style for sure, but that doesn't make it anime. Scott Pilgrim had manga style and it sure as hell wasn't manga.

I liked it overall despite the changes to Isaac and Camilla. Also, the only way it can be seen as "feminist trash" is if you think women should literally be just a bunch of live-in maids as oppose to also being a medical worker.

What the fuck are you talking about? Are you legitimately having a mental breakdown?

You act like all creativity is all Japanese people in anime, and you clearly have no idea what goes into revising during storyboarding. Cowboy Bebop is no longer anime for sure. Space Dandy is off the table big time.

holy shit newshit no one cares go post that on plebbit or talk to your friends on twitch about it

So you're telling me Sailor Moon, Doraemon, Yugioh, Ghost in the Shell, One Piece, Slam Dunk, FLCL, Spirited Away, Devilman Crybaby, and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure all have the same style? Or are you telling me that some of these anime aren't anime?

>being this mad he was outed

Do you have some proof that the japanese did not have at least a majority control of the creative process?

Outed? Are you just full on hallucinating now?

They all have the same framework obviously.

Netflix Carmilla is an utter retard but the show try to pass her off as a master strategist.

it proves anime isn't "for children like cartoons in the west" which was the point you mouthbreathing faggot

reddit-tier reply; go back

>he's mad

>he still can’t explain his bullshit

>everyone in this thread is the same

He's probably making allusion to some e-celeb but the retard forgot that he's not on Yea Forums: no one on Yea Forums care about e-celeb faggotry.
Literally rent free as they would say since it's something he said several times during the entirety of the thread.

That's not the only definition you utter cretin. I says exaggerated 3 fucking times and the word will always have that misleading implication.

can you read?

yeah, I read your retarded blogpost. can you go back?

Outside of all the Aussies, Koreans, Euros, Amerilards, and quality assurance for distribution through Square Enix's American branch and its licensing quality control as well telling them what they can and cannot do, no.

He's right and you should fuck off for trying to put more stigma around anime.

>That's not the only definition
It's the most relevant one.

>I says exaggerated 3 fucking times
And for what reason your words would be more valuable?

>the word will always have that misleading implication
It literally doesn't, cartoon is only used for american animation in general in my country, regardless of exaggeration.

I encourage you to hone your reading skills. it's not too late user

Which one do you niggers like more, western animation or jap animation?

Why is it always reddit that mentions reddit after being outed for gay old memes?

This.

go back

If that "framework" is , then apparently Doraemon isn't an anime, but Wakfu is. But the point wasn't about "framework," but style, and there is clearly no single unified style when it comes anime, cartoons, or any other media.

Not anime.

>It's the most relevant one.
Not really because that's not the connotation cartoon has.

>And for what reason your words would be more valuable?
It was a typo. I meant "it" you comatose fuck.

>It literally doesn't, cartoon is only used for american animation in general in my country, regardless of exaggeration.
Not really.

Czech, Russia and France are considered west, right? If so then west. If not east.

i am

what the fuck are you on about

People debate about what the fuck anime is. A style, artistic movement etc.. But the best term is framework. Which is similar to style. You get the idea.

I wish anime had more stigma, then may we could have decent threads instead of shitfests like this caused by reddit kids.

No, the best term is nationality.
Anything else exclude actual anime while including non-anime.

fuck you. you're crazy.

>Not really
Not really what?
It's what we do here, are you really going to deny the fact that people in other countries may have diffrent use for different words?

>If that "framework" is , then apparently Doraemon isn't an anime, but Wakfu is.
By the English definition yes. Though I'd still say Wakfu isn't if we're being fairly strict.

>and there is clearly no single unified style when it comes anime, cartoons, or any other media.
That's not the point. It's the defining style of the late cel era and anime today.

how do i get jap gf

>By the English definition yes
Show me the actual definition in which Doraemon doesn't fit.

So nothing then, in both cases.

Why do you care so much about nationality? Didn't you became a fan of anime in the first place because of content? Japan can make anything. May as well merge this board with Yea Forums if you think nationality is all that matters.

user google calls it a style. It's obviously that iconic style most commonly associated with japan. No need to play games.

Trips of truth.

It doesn't define what that style is though. You say it is obviously your own definition of the word, but your definition exclude plenty of anime.

>but your definition exclude plenty of anime
That really depends on how strict you're being. Not all Japanese animation are anime.

I didn't become an anime fan because of a specific style or framework.
I became an anime fan because of there is just so much diversity in anime compared to any other nation animation output.

The style was defined here. But the better term is framewrok. More technically a framework to build styles off of.

But no matter how strict you are you will probably consider doraemon anime. Which doesn't fit into your definition, therefore it is flawed.

Totally. Obviously none of that has to do with creative control haha. Imagine if you were actually restrained by licensing, QA and foreign animation hahaha. That would suck lmao.

So Boruto is not anime? Because one of main animators of Castlevania, worked on it:
sakugabooru.com/post/show/52551

That is just the posters own arbitrary definition. I could post my own and it would have the exact same weight as his.

That dos't make sense? What restrict nationality then? Yes jap animation is diverse but you'll mind more diversity in all animation as a whole. Including western chineese etc.., s it doesn't make sense for you to say that or care.

>But no matter how strict you are you will probably consider doraemon anime.
I wouldn't. It's closer to Tezuka's style actually.

Which is anime.

American animation is more diverse actually

>it's all nationality
Okay, good to know. So I can have nothing but Aryan dudes do everything as long as their nationality is Japanese. Anime sure is something.

user it's that famous iconic 2d style most commonly associated with and originating from japan.

Attached: 094830924834232.jpg (640x439, 164K)

No.

Also no.

Ignore the obvious trolls.

Anime isn't the only thing I watch. But every season there are plenty of new and different anime, and there is usually at least a few quality shows.

No Amaterasu blood in those Aryan subhumans, no anime. Sorry pal.

There’s nothing stopping an anime fan from also enjoying other animation.

What is Tezuka's style exactly and why is it not anime? Tezuka is considered as one of the godfather of the anime and manga.

Still doesn't explain why you would want to restrict the term to nationality if you care so much about diversity.

That doesn’t happen very often.

So it literally has nothing to do with nationality. So now anything with nip-blooded people working on it is anime. Castlevania is now anime. Do you see where your stupid line is drawn?

To avoid Yea Forumsshit on Yea Forums, obviously.

Not the point. That poser claimed he liked "anime" for it's diversity and while there is a lot of that in jap animation these is more in animation as a whole. The japs just define it as animation whether it's Chinese or western too

Ignore that guy and don’t think that he represents all of us.

But why is that a problem for someone who only cares about nationality and not content? The japanese could have well made all that disgusting Yea Forumsshit. see what i mean?

But they didn't so the discussion is irrelevant.

anime is just obviously this style

some people do

You're posts are becoming stupid and unintelligible.

So now you're just going to deflect?

There are people in here who consider Looney Tunes to be anime?

That's not the argument. I didn't say how often it happens. Fucking read. If the statement is that the creative control nationality has to be Japanese, then an all Aryan creative control can make anime as long as they're nationally Japanese.

If it's that the animation team has to be Japanese, there goes a ton of anime since Koreans do a lot. If Koreans count as honorary, then The Simpsons is anime. If not, then it's time to throw out a lot of shows.

If it's that there has to be Japanese blood involved, Castlevania is now anime.

If it's the style, we've made a distinction that OP has made, and many others would make.

Which is it, Yea Forums? Pick your poison.

It is not deflection. The Japanese didn't make american crap. If they had then there is a chance Yea Forums wouldn't even exists.

It's anime by the Japanese definition just like ping pong is.

>The japanese could have well made all that disgusting Yea Forumsshit
Technically, everything could have been made by everyone.
It's not the case so that not even an argument that should have been made in the first place.

The only problem I see with my post is that I didn’t put a none between but and of, which you can’t criticize since you can’t use your and you’re properly.

You are the only autist in the entire world who thinks Tezuka is not anime. Your "anime is a style" theory is flawed as fuck. Anime is animation made in Japan. You have the more common "style" but it can be the complete opposite and still be anime if it's animation and it's Japanese. Period. Then you have "anime"-looking animation made wherever but Japan, like Castlevania. For legit anime, even if the animators are from Philippines, as long as the producers, writers, money etc are Japanese, it's anime.

Also reminder this is just the term "anime" as "understood" in English/the West. In Japanese, "anime" is just animation. In Japan/Japanese, the equivalent to "anime" as understood in English/the West would be something like "Nihon no anime".

It's a fine argument. We my as well migrate to Yea Forums if nationality is all that ever mattered.

you need both nationality and blood

So you're just insane and were deflecting then? Okay.

The point is the Nips generally makes good stuff. Other nationality generally don't. To allow it would dilute the board.

I'm not even white and I hate Yea Forums shit so no.

>It's a fine argument
It isn't, it's a what-if scenario that has no bearing on the actual reality.

The “100% Japanese blood” doesn’t represent all of us, so stop using his arguments against us.

So we throw out literally any studio with anyone that has a non-100% Japanese person and declare their work not anime? Time to crack knuckles on your favorite cartoons.

S you d care about cotent now? See why people have a problem with this nationality bullshit? Castlevania was great and like anime. The HGS bullshit was not.

You definitely should. There you could talk about Castlevania all you want.

Japs make the worst animation tho

>You are the only autist in the entire world who thinks Tezuka is not anime.

Bullshit. See It's a style.

Are you? You seem to be unable to make a coherent point about anything.

Arbitrary. My rules are 1%. Pretty sure these rules make Family Guy anime now.

People like anime because the nips makes good stuff. If they didn't people would like anime.
Castlevania was not like anime, and I don't know what HGS is.

I swear i saw someone complainiing about why the cal-arts disease want popular over here a couple months back.

You claimed that japs consider the western interpreted meaning to be "Nihon no anime" but that wrong.

mm no?

Nothing in this thread proved me otherwise.

Why should take that definition over the one everyone knows. Literally what google says.

Nationally or bloodline or both? How Japanese in both categories? Can Hapas make manga?
>compared to other countries
Japs are Francaboos and Miyazaki was a Russiaboo. Their animated avant garde scene is extremely influenced by Czech surrealism. All three of these countries blow Japan out of the water.

No. I didn't say Japs interpret anything. The "anime" concept I "defend", as a Western concept, in Japanese, WOULD be "nihon no anime"

Yes you were dumb fucking nigger. You said that Japanese interpret our meaning to be something like "nihon no anime" but that was proven wrong by hereThe see our definition as a style.

>All three of these countries blow Japan out of the water.
But their production quantity is far lower.

Google is not god. Google does not control reality.

>quantity
This is how you end up with a ton of shit and a few just "watchable" things every season. Literally Bollywood tier.

Stay delusional.

you're delusional

And those few watchable things every season still amount to more overall quality then any other country because they produce so much.

Bu you did.

>In Japan/Japanese, the equivalent to "anime" as understood in English/the West would be something like "Nihon no anime".
That's not how they understand it. The understand our definition as style as pointed out here.
