>praised as the best country for animation
>literally all of it is 2D shonen slop with the same art style and story
>USA does 2D, 3D, claymation, stop motion, puppets, etc. and gets one-tenth the praise
The Nightmare Before Christmas is infinitely more aesthetically daring and interesting than any of that weaboo garbage.

Jfc digital animation sucks
Original Dragonball is infinitely better than this trash
>STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE REEEE-ACK
woah a modern retelling of old DB that doesn't look like shit, is not the original sure but is pretty close
>modern retelling of old DB
you mean a modern retelling of Journey to the West
(This anon hasn’t read Journey of the west or dragon ball)
Gets praised by who?
Nightmare before Christmas has bad composition and no focus
Why does Japan make you shitters so angry?
They give themselves away by criticizing shonen.
For those who don’t know/care, anime is broadly categorized by age/gender demographics for the audience, seinen means young adult, shoujo means young girl, shonen means young boy. These terms are just demographic labels, not genres. Shonen can mean action, romance, fantasy, etc. Some big shonen anime are Speed Racer, Dragon Ball, Pokemon, Detective Conan, One Piece, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Naruto, Bleach, and Teasing Master Takagi-San, just to name a few.
There’s a specific demographic of animation fan who just hate young boys. I don’t know, it’s a weird pathological thing. They just hate them. These people usually have a view that animation should only be for weird fat lesbians in their 30s. Their favorite shows are Steven Universe and The Owl House. Adventure Time was popular with young boys, until it was destroyed by a bunch of new writers.
Have you ever wondered why animation networks stopped making shows like X-Men, Batman, Spider-Man, GI Joe, or He-Man? Have you ever wondered why the new Superman cartoon is a dumb Lois Lane wish fulfillment thing? Wonder why a lot of IPs like Star Wars get actively fricked with? Here’s a hint: all of those would be called shonen if they were Japanese.
>These people usually have a view that animation should only be for weird fat lesbians in their 30s
I don't have that view and I don't care for leftist animation sanctioned by wine aunts either. You're just searching for a clearly defined scapegoat (which probably doesn't exist, except for a handful of people you've talked to online) to justify how bland and ubiquitous shonen anime is. I grew up around a lot of hyperactive Black person/Hispanic kids who would exclusively watch shonen because they liked the fights, powerups, and cookiecooker underdog tropes. Basically I would be okay with shonen if shonentards weren't so overrepresented
Yeah there’s so many fights and powerups in Your Lie In April. What the frick are you talking about? Why shouldn’t young boys be allowed to have media that caters to them?
Michael Bay said it best years ago
>Your Lie In April
Is that considered shonen? I don't know, aware me. I'm just an anime tourist
It was published in Monthly Shonen Magazine and it won the award for best shonen at the 2013 Kodansha Manga Awards
No body watches his films. maybe except the chinese.
Idk about that. Shonen referred to the publication Shonen Jump. Devil mans and JoJo both appear in Shoenen jump and neither are considered young boy oriented
Jojo is absolutely shonen, I’m not too familiar with Devil mans to comment
>Shonen referred to the publication Shonen Jump
...which is called that because it publishes shounen series, that isn't a random word, it means young man, meaning it's stuff boys tend to like
>here’s that young boy manga I was telling you about, it’s right after Dragon ball chapters.
yes, it is, the author of that series was heavily protested by the pta.
>boys don't like action and violence
It’s literally a rated M manga though.
Only trannies are. Western media is run by gays and trannies. Trannies hate everything but themselves
rated M by who?
it's entirely on the responsibility for a civilization to support its own arts. the USA needs to train its people to appreciate it better. even in the golden age of western animation, most boomers dismissed it all
Pictured: the wall american animation will never be able to overcome
>Pictured: the wall of approximately 0.0000000000000000001% of anime ever produced
>Not pictured: the wall of slop that approximately makes up for the 99.99999999999999999999% of anime ever produced
FTFY
>a bunch of stills
Kek it's so funny how people literally don't fricking know what animation is
>American animation
This show is so good and makes leftie troonime slop shovelers absolutely lose their mind.
Americans take a simple concept and make it interesting and entertaining. Jap asiaticies take convoluted nonsense and force interest and engagement by putting pedophilic imagery and coomer slop bait because no one would actually sit down and watch it otherwise.
Thread music
>literally all of it is 2D shonen slop with the same art style and story
if you’re going to criticize anime as a whole, this is not the route to go down
Japan has and does all those also you nugay.
>literally all of it is 2D shonen slop
it literally isn't
Why are americans so insecure about Japan?
>The Nightmare Before Christmas
gayer than tranime
