Alone the episode in Sucy's head was full of anecdotes from western media.
Dude, why are lying? They had an entire retro segment with Akko.
Yeah fair enough, they didn't do a good job selling the show. Hard to be mad about, they still have time and they're not dependent on selling subs through this. I've already said that I don't think Crunchyroll is where this should be sold but I guess ATTWarner doesn't really have anywhere else.
I mean yeah if you have zero grasp of context, sure.
Mind you, Im not angry, just disappointed that they went in such a typical direction. If this is the first series, the one to sell us on the whole Crunchyroll Originals line, and this is our first introduction to it?
this new Pokemon show is coming along really wellI wouldn't mind so much if there wasn't a show with similar artsyle and premise coming soon: The Owl House
Youre right! I shouldnt call it Tumblr, because there are some god like artist who post there occasionally, I'll just call it trash.
Except it doesn't? From a artstyle standpoint it looks completely fine.
I use it to mean a generic-looking anime meets western cartoons style that I've found is very popular on tumblr. Often with rendering techniques that all look like they have watched and replicated the same art tutorials. Basically fairly uninspired, intermediate art made by people still trying to find a style of their own.
This is part of what I dont like about a lot of these new anime inspired shows. They are taking the most superficial aspects of anime (character design with Not-Cubone and Not-Ryoko, and general artstyle) and not doing anything else to meld east and west style.I wouldn't mind so much if there wasn't a show with similar artsyle and premise coming soon: The Owl House
Then take a look at this post https://www.resetera.com/posts/11799681/
Cannon Busters or Children of Ether? Cause I know the first one is Netflix but the second one is the one that's actually on CR and I didn't hear about it happening as a series. Cool if so though
I mean... I'm the person who first mentioned Tumblr in this thread and I'm what the kind of person you seem to be assuming I am would label an "SJW." There's several definite artstyles that are commonly known from Tumblr, and this really reminds of one of them. No "dog whistle" is intended.
I mean, whether or not you intend it that way, you can't really deny that Tumblr as an adjective is most frequently a pejorative term used to describe superficial characteristics (the "Tumblr" crowd being whiny young SJWs with colorful hair and silly obsessions who get so easily triggered)
I was only anwering to your post with "LWA doesn't take anything from 'Western Cartoons'" and that there are a lot of homages, cameos and what not of western media in LWA.
They don't really show any animation so there's not much to go on either way
I liked the whole Rising Stars of Manga idea when I was a kid and even got one! But yeah they were all very rough to say the least
Im dealing with the stupid points you made earlier in the thread. If LWA isnt inspired by western cartoons, then I guess Steven Universe isnt inspired by anime then?
I got the first compilation issue and was like, "Damn, these are shit," and never considered them again.
I think it was the artist in me who was excited about it, but the realist in me knew none of them would last
