A lot of the current era of adult animated comedies are writer based rather than animation based, and it shows. The Simpsons was a big example, arguably when it was at its peak with the writing team was when Matt Groening was laying down the law about how animation had to be on-model at all times to avoid undercutting the jokes being written. These days, with the majority of those comedies driven by comedians and writers, the animation is the last thing on their minds. Hell, if it was just limited to comedy outside of the big indie scene, it’d be one thing, but even action shows from the West are being accused of crap animation. This exchange occurred an hour ago at SDCC with the creator of Invincible: The animation is just not what they’re worried about.

I’ve heard repeatedly (but can never find a proper source) that executives make adult cartoons ugly on purpose in order to deter kids from watching them. Big Mouth’s creators specifically said they used the ugliest art style possible to talk about puberty and sexuality without coming off as pedophilic.

Why would you do that to yourself? Tougen Anki 1-2.

Did a replay of Cyberpunk 2077 so I could play the DLC. Also played a specific ending.

If the intention was to promote Superman, this marathon worked. Given that the film will hit HBO Max likely October, we might see MAWS S3 November-December.

Only if he’s kicking people in the nuts.

Is the entire planet getting rain, or just wherever I want to go on vacation?

Simpsons is like Disney for animated Oscars. “It’s the one we know, it gets nominated.”

Superman - 8/10. James Gunn cribs notes from the Shin Japan heroes films, particularly Shin Ultraman. The end result mostly works but it’s very messy.

No Toonami premise this year though.

The newest episode was #3 on the Netflix Top 10 behind only Squid Game and Sullivan’s Crossing, but it feels like DeMarco really missed the party. I mean it’s on Netflix and Crunchyroll. And did a few million for a theatrical preview of S2.

Unboxing!

Seth Green will likely be arguing with the other Seth in a Family Guy episode over it.

Crunchyroll got it, but given they’re actively sending anime over to Netflix, they’ll get it eventually too. Toonami on the other hand…

When the kind of filler movie is the second most watched thing in Netflix in the entire world when it comes out, more Black Clover is inevitable.

Fist of the North Star’s CG being Kengan Ashura was a disappointment but at the very least, Kengan’s animation was fluid and very well choreographed, even if I would have preferred 2D. Rooster Fighter looks like this - It feels like a shounen anime infused with Aqua Teen’s animation and cynicism. Which can work but will win zero awards.
