Why i think new anime is hitting rock bottom

Topic Moved: From Members Chit Chat

Anime nowadays is simply a copy, paste procedure for a quick buck

I agree with you sir.

Why do you think new anime sucks when you're not up to date with them ?

I don't really think new anime is getting crappy and I've seen a ton of new anime. I'm also up to date with new anime.

Sometimes there's just crappy ones and gems.

Ah but..... sir acro i do keep up but those gems lessen and lessen every year and that's what i mean. Sure there have been good series from 2007-2011 etc but other than the attack on titan series this year, its just like last year well people with strict taste and actual taste at all will notice this. But what im saying is there was alot more gems being made in the old days but now your lucky to catch 3-4 series that catch your eye maybe less.

Most of the animes this age started to be very interesting but as the story goes by, it keeps on being dull. Some animes that have been taken from mangas, visual novels or light novels are forced to have a fast progress, which turns out to be a complete mess.

I really agree with Mazinkaiser. If I may refer to an episode of OreImo. Some studios or tv companies use the pretext "We want your novel to have an anime adaptation" to hide their real intention: "We don't have shows to air anymore. Our sales will drop if we don't find a replacement for the previous one."

yeah. something like that.

I must say they are some truth in some of your words. With the exception of all the sequels in this Fall 2013, I only found at least 1 show worth watching.

Well, Sometimes, it really depends on what kind of taste the person has. But I agree to you sir, Mazinkaiser, your words ring true if you are to review every episode and every anime this and for the past season.

Well lets be real here. I rate my anime on at least 4 figures, animation, character design,genre and sometimes story.
and i only need about 2 episodes of each to grasp what the animation and frames will be most likely through the entire show. And the character design to which i mean if it has bad drawing which most people will think is good this gen but really its not that great , but what i mean by character design is that i would love for them not to be giant eyed whiny kids.Story is self explanatory and genre,and genre is my opinion so that's my opinion that goes into this factor.The topic relates to people with the same likes as me or around, and if you like the majority of anime coming out then cool im happy you are not as confined to certain things as i am.
But i am talking about people with strict expectations or a little less strict when they look for new anime to watch.

i agree most of it was rip off, crap and just fanservice anime. Well some of new animes are worth to watch.

Its good if you like that kind of genre and anime but yeah people with stricter tastes find it rather unfortunate.

I think nothing in this world is original...because anything that you do or make, someone has already done it before. You can't just pull an "original" idea out of your ass without consenting any ideas from somewhere. Same thing in every literature, movies and anime. You can't just say "Hey, this anime looks like a rip-off of this one bcoz it had the same premise..." , "This one has a same setting as this one that really sucked so I think it definitely will suck too..." etc etc. That's why you think some anime are just like a carbon copy of some shows...or...just a huge rip-off.

It's really all about how they present the premise. Even though they reuse the same setting if they do it right, and as long as I enjoyed it then it's great! I'll consider it as a "gem" :)

Aaaand it'd be really a huge pain in the ass if you only choose an anime to watch solely of its originality in terms of premise...or plot. I'll guarantee you, you'll found nothing, nothing at all. (Except Naruto---coz Naruto is da best animu evah! *insert genius meme pic here*)

To me, seriously speaking, Anime isn't hitting rock bottom yet because there's still a lot of space for development, albeit little. It's evolving everyday. Just look at how the animation, the quality (I'm a Sakuga fan btw).

My only concern is on the fanservice. :(

I noticed that too. Some anime these days were cliche, having the same concepts/stories. They only differ in characters, setting, and title. But it doesn't mean that new anime are crappy ones. Well, some of it are crappy, but not all of it. Only few new series are worth watching.

Agreed. Madami na ngayon moe characters,harem and highschool romance anime, compare before mga iconic at mga badass yung tipong napapanuod mo tumataas balahibo mo ngayon madalang na lang yung ganun.   

I agree to this. Cute ang moe pero masama ang sobra sobra sobra. Every season, out of 10 anime titles, I only watch 2 or 3.

same case here.. Thats the main reason why i'm still a bit outdated in recent anime released lately..

My concern:
•Too much Fansevice
•Too much moe/Big Bewbies with NO PLOT AT ALL!
•Too much mainstreamed Clichè..
•Somehow a copy paste of other classics
•Too much whiny *ssed protagonist..
•(IMO)Some Anime Gem is Either a Hit and Miss..
•Sometimes stick to the mainstream anime..
•(IMO) The DERE thing needs to tone down a bit.. Its getting predictable..
•Harem...
•(IMO)Main Badass protagonists is no more ._. We'll only stick to Twilight-ish Protagonist...

Thats my only concerns..
