Well
if it isn't someone acting overly jaded for the sake of illustrating
what they believe to be knowledge the other person doesn't have.
You're just trying to flaunt knowledge at the cost of accuracy of information.
Sure
Anime has always been a standard avenue of media, but this thread was
meant to be from the perspective of the western audiences exposure to
it, not a anime as a whole.
Even then you'd displayed ignorance
in ignoring the noteable trends in anime's evolution and development.
From the more mature OVA driven markets of the 80s and 90s to the
dominate TV series of today made possible my more inexpensive means of
computer aided animation. Incidentally around the late 90s / early
2000s it was noted by both Japanese and Western Audiences that
mainstream Anime started becoming targeted more at international
audiences.
You are a childish newfag to insist Anime has
always been the same thing or that there is any element by which it has
been unilateral commercialism.
When something is more expensive
to produce, the amount of material that can be animated is limited.
When something is inexpensive to produce, anything and everything can
be animated resulting in an inevitable drop in over all quality and
consistancy. And with Anime now, more than ever, reflecting formulaic
trends it's hard to honestly look at the industry now and then and not
admire something of the past. Mind you, I'm aware anime has always
followed formulated trends, but it is in this day and age that it has
gone to a new level. Anime is cheaper and easier to make, trends and
genre archetypes are changing faster than ever, and the Japanese are
now aware of the fourth wall Western market.
No one can claim things were better in the past as opposed to now, but to not acknowledge the stark difference is just childish. |
