weird question but why don't western animation studios try to make a show inspired by 'anime' artstyle, anime is mega popular so why not try to appeal to a larger audience?

>weird question but why don't western animation studios try to make a show inspired by 'anime' artstyle
I can't tell if the joke here is that there are already several diet anime shows premiering or you're just unaware.
Bro, do you not remember that time in the early 2000s when nearly every cartoon looked like anime.
You mean like all the post Young Justice DC animes?
Batman, I...
They've done this literally dozens of times, have you even watched a single cartoon in the last 20 years?
have you been living under a rock?
or an offgrid enclave?
ok nvm i guess i dont watch much cartoons
if anything they literally can't stop producing it at this point
The real discussion to be had is how "anime" is the term these companies use for serious western animation that's not even made or conceived in Japan.
BTAS is mostly animated in japan
It's just a marketing thing. And it's not like morons around here use it much better considering anime literally just means cartoon so all cartoons are 'animes' by default.
marvel's what if or blue eye samurai will never be called anime. pseudo anime are clearly trying to be look anime-ish.
even the ones that are not so obvious like pantheon and the owl house, or even invincible are heavily influenced by anime style. it's pretty disturbing that some people deny this.
Anime is taken more seriously because characters are known to look more human than average cartoon characters who are just shapes placed together and the writing is usually dramatic almost like a live action drama and it just generally looks visually more appealing. Cartoons used to be more varied, but has declined drastically compared to anime, which isn't doing it any favors.
>Anime is taken more seriously
delusional
It is, frog memer. You're coping trying to say it's not.
no one take anime seriously aside from edgy teenagers
grow up
Talk about out of touch.
Powerhouse shit is so fricking ugly and boring looking
So it's gonna be another Castlevania where the characters are gonna stand around discussing the plot for like 85% of its runtime?
In all fairness, most of this stuff is on streaming and streaming companies largely go out of their way to not advertise shit outside of the day they premier.
Teen Titans? ATLA? Lots of other shit I'm sure?
>anime = when characters are drawn with human proportions
Is this really what it's all come down to? Just think how poorly this speaks to the history of illustration.
Anime style for cartoons is gross it isn't even appealing anymore and just looks cheap.
Which is more than other shows called anime can claim. However, it's not like BTAS has ever been marketed as anime.
Of course, it's a marketing term. But Japanese animation is very clearly different from western animation and that term helps divide the two, but these companies are obviously using it because it's popular and sounds better than calling something a cartoon.
>But Japanese animation is very clearly different from western animation
only weebs believe this . All cartoons are anime in japan
Then why do the japanese talk about anime differently than they talk about cartoons? Why is there such a strong culture that connects anime/manga/vns/jrpgs/cosplay etc. and has a huge electric town centered around this stuff?
>Then why do the japanese talk about anime differently than they talk about cartoons?
They don't.
>Then why do the japanese talk about anime differently than they talk about cartoons?
They don't moron
>Why is there such a strong culture that connects anime/manga/vns/jrpgs/cosplay etc. and has a huge electric town centered around this stuff?
Because Otaku spend money, and the vast majority of them spend money on domestic IPs that were designed specifically to cater to them and extract their money.
>They don't moron
Yes they do son of a prostitute.
>Because Otaku spend money, and the vast majority of them spend money on domestic IPs that were designed specifically to cater to them and extract their money.
So they are perceived differently? Thank you for admitting it.
In japan there is anime, and there is foreign anime. Anime is literally their word for animation you dipshit.
If I talk about a cartoon and a russian cartoon, I am clearly making a distinction between them, but it is not because I consider them a different type of media you moron.
>Yes they do son of a prostitute.
lol they dont. homie you probably dont browse 5ch/ JP language twitter anyway because they don't participate is senseless tribalism
Theyll hold evnagelion in the same regard as tom and jerry
>lol they dont. homie you probably dont browse 5ch/ JP language twitter anyway because they don't participate is senseless tribalism
You are so fricking dumb. Nowhere did I imply that there is tribalism. Of course there isn't. That doesn't mean that they talk about them in the same way and that there is the same culture surrounding them.
>Theyll hold evnagelion in the same regard as tom and jerry
Now you are just throwing words that you've heard on Cinemaphile and forgetting the context. The context was that anno's 5th favorite childhood animated series was t&j which is correct.
Otaku =/= japanese society
Careful, you're gonna shatter his whole worldview
Black person there is different culture surrounding Detective Conan and Bible Black, what's your fricking point?
it's astounding how weebs can be so fixated on jap crap yet know absolutely nothing about the country it comes from
The point is that anime is being used to describe a "mature" cartoon because companies don't consider western animation as mature.
Tranime writing is shit.
Tranime romance is shit. GTFO to Cinemaphile troony
What's the Baccano equivalent of Cinemaphile, huh? Where are all the good adult cartoons? If you want to copy something from anime copy the damn scenarios.
>What's the Baccano equivalent of Cinemaphile, huh?
Wouldn't that be something that 1) flopped in America but 2) is fairly popular overseas? Baccano wasn't exactly a hit in Japan.
>weird question but why don't western animation studios do the exact thing that western animation studios have been doing repeatedly for at least the last 20 years?
Yeah, that's a pretty weird question.
people should remember how ''serious'' western animation looked like in the 80s
The average person on Cinemaphile has never watched anything older than The Simpsons and Evangelion respectively. Always remember that.
It's only anime if it's drawn in japanese duh
Op is a gay pretending to be moronic
To be fair, he's not lying about being moronic, just about how he's moronic
There's a fair amount, albeit they're mostly animated by Koreans. Though, to be fair, it's not like outsourcing is unheard of in Japan. The main problem with western "anime" is often the writing. Typically the writers are either way too ambitious and can't follow through, they get their heads up their asses, or they're just plain dumb. Or all of those at once. Again, not to say these aren't common problems for the japs too, but they seemingly have a better time hitting a more palatable compromise of ambition, pretentiousness, and stupidity that seems to elude westerners. That's why stuff like AtLA is such a rare, precious israeliteel: it's ambitious but mostly follows through, not too up its own ass, and not too stupid.

They do, all the time, but even for the shittiest anime you still need people who are able to draw properly, and that's rare in western animation industry currently
