On Sunday we rolled out new HTML for 4chan's imageboards. The new code validates HTML5/CSS3, the design should appear exactly the same, pages should load slightly faster (especially long threads), and extension/user script/archive developers should have a much easier job parsing our pages. This is the first time in approximately ten years that it has been updated.

If you are using an extension or app that has not been updated for the changes, some features may not work—you will need to wait for the developer to update their extension/app to be compatible with the new HTML. If you haven't downloaded it already, try the Official 4chan Chrome Extension.

The most significant changes with the new HTML are a new mobile-optimized layout for phones, and inline extension features. Check them out by clicking [Settings] in the upper-right (make sure you don't select features that conflict with those from an extension though), or visit 4chan from your phone!

We are still working through a few bugs with the new code. Please report any bugs you find to newhtml@4chan.org.

ITT your opinion on cartoons that try to be like anime, such as Kappa Mikey, Martin Mystery, Avatar, etc.
>>
Boondocks and Avatar are good. Everything else is shit
>>
Is teen titans in the same list as avatar or is it in the bad tier?

>Implying avatar is good

good first, anime second

also parodies of anime must be done by someone that actually seen anime

but I think the titans fans hated it

I agree. The only good anime jokes/parodies I've seen lately were from 30 Rock and Archer

avatar and boondocks - great shows that employ great people. good for them.

shit like kappa mikey, martin mystery, totally spiez - fucking awful shows, that do occasionally employ friends, so atleast they feed people I want to see not die. still, shitty shows (manly because they hire good animators, then tell them they don't have the time or money to do things right.)

One of the very few good cartoons that ever came out of my country. And we didn't even make the toon itself, just the source comic.

Genndy Tartakovsky, and Titmouse are the only ones that have used anime influence responsibly, every thing else just seems wapanese just for the sake of being wapanese.

This is it exactly. The best shows are the ones that take hints from anime but don't shove it in your face. A mostly western show with just a subtle influence is great.

Shows usually get cancelled due to low rating or the budgets being to high to be profitable, I doubt it was cancelled for something like that.

You know in season 3 Coop was going to fix the timedrive by flipping an upside down stickey note that had the instructions on how to use it. We'll never get to see the true ending now.

The guy even said he had tons of ideas for Megas, so it isn't even like they just ran out of ideas and quit.

At least he's making a new show now.

Its not that I didn't enjoy avatar, but any of my actual friends, inb4 friends?.jpg, who try to tell me its the best thing ever piss me off. The reasons they think its the best thing is something that nearly all anime has by design, I don't care how 'violent' it is, or that the 'romance develops' or that there is an 'actual plot'. Being the best thing in a category doesn't mean you're actually that good.

I thought Men in Black had a bit of anime influence.
Though it's hard to tell what is anime influence and what is me relating everything to anime.

There really isn't much of a difference. They both think that they're culturally superior to their neighbours, they're both complainers, and they're both land-burning communists.

Transformers is still /co/ even when its from japan. That's just how it is. As for beast wars, I loved that as a kid. Much better writing then I would expect from something on fox kids.

I think exactly the same, that show has no anime reference at all... the closest thing to japan in that show is the chinatown environment

I preferred Beast Wars to Transformers.

Mainframe was an amazing studio in general. Reboot was pretty damn good, and they're making a series of movies for it. Shadow Raiders was awesome too. Too bad that they became Rainmaker.

You now realize that the video game equivalent of Mainframe becoming Rainmaker is Rareware becoming Rare.

"Glitch! ... BFG.
