Now that's almost over... Were the 2010's decade a lack luster for deep cultural hitting anime?
The 90's had the initial global anime boom, with genre-makers like DBZ, Sailor Moon and Berserk shortly followed by game-changing booms like Pokemon, Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop that changed the medium entirely. The 2000's had the big 3, followed by large impact series like Yu-Gi-Oh, Death Note, K-On, Bakemonogatari, Madoka, FMA, Gurenn Lagann. The 2010's had only Attack on Titan and One Punch Man, both which deflated after the first season and Kill la Kill (?), which was just a meme show.

There hasn't been as much that has hit the medium as hard as most of the ones on your list, but that's partially because the fandom has increased to the point where the stuff that gets the most coverage and exposure is normalfag tripe even worse than the likes of the big 3
I liked Into The Abyss and Violet Evergarden though.

>SnK deflated after s1
Thats not true, s2 and s3 were way better than season one and s4 will be the best one. Unlike OpM who got a shitty s2

The first half of 2010's had defining shows like Madoka that revived the grimderp mahou shoujo fad and Fate/Zero that rebooted the Fate franchise. As for the second half, it's definitely dominated by isekai, but I can't name any series since they're all such an utter garbage.

Idol you fucking newfag.

That's japan only though. No one gives a shit about idols here aside from weebs

Katanagatari, Parasyte, Mob Psycho 100, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Steins;Gate, Sword Art Online, Tokyo Ghoul, Boku no Hero Academia, Noragami, Attack on Titan and One Punch Man. I may not like all of them but they are all popular series from 10s
Whether you like or not, SAO had a major hand in making anime mainstream as fuck, so I would say it's pretty important culturally.
Julian Nguyen
Watch more than two anime.
Noah Morales
Also Attack on Titan

Who gives a fuck? Are "deep cultural hitting anime" the only ones you like, you fucking drone? If there's still good shows coming out, then who the fuck gives a fuck?

What kind of anime (besides already long established shonen) gets 100 episodes nowadays? That's shit from the 90's and early 2000's, but most series AT MOST would have 20 or-so episodes per season.
And all of that goes without saying an anime's quality or popularity isn't defined by the number of episodes. Madoka has 12 episodes and is popular, and series like Fate get more than 20 episodes and are popular as well. This is in no way a deciding factor.

Both are really great

Madoka, Sao, Snk had the biggest impacts.
Daniel Sullivan
Gundam only came in 79 and Macross is hardly representation of the 80s, nor does it have the same cultural impact except for fun muricand who watched Robotech shit.
Haruhi and SAO.
So basically you know nothing except that Eva is from the 90s, congrats

>It has to have 100 episodes
What a fucking retard
Sebastian Foster
Who fucking cares? Cultural deep impacts means more normies showing up and these companies catering to them. I liked quite a few of 2010s anime such as Ancient Magus' Bride and Blood Blockade Battlefront.

Yes. There were plenty for excellent shows and films, but they never got as popular as vapid shit like SAO or SnK.

The 2010's saw a pretty sharp increase in the number of shows per season, but as it turns out that was unsustainable which is why 2019 has had far fewer shows per season than in previous years. Most probably it was a bubble driven by the desire to shill LNs.
Carter Rivera
So a mediocre adaptation of a 30 year old manga is one of the defining anime of the decade? Kind of sad really.
Grayson Russell
I really think this is a case of not being able to see the forest for the trees. There's been tons of great anime made this decade.
Leo Butler
It's not just LN shilling. The 2010s saw an explosion in international credit as every country tried to inject liquidity by slashing interest rates (sometimes to negative amounts). As a result, financing garbage shows in the hope that they might make bank actually became viable. In China, they build ghost cities. In Japan, they produce hundreds of animated shows a year. Different sides, same coin.
Mason Lewis
>SnK is vapid shit
Said by a guy who never read the manga and dropped the anime after the first 3 episodes.
Come back after read the manga and watched all the 3 seasons and only after that you will HAVE the rights to judge it.
