It’s becoming more and more clear Netflix sees anime as a huge part of their value proposition as the streaming wars record their first major casualty in Quibi.

When you watch Pierrot, expect their subcontractors to be below-average. Their in-house stuff, at least in my opinion, is competent at worst.

Chapinator_X Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 I would’ve thought it that Science SARU, Studio Mur, and MAPPA would’ve already had something set aside for Netflix. But then I remembered that Eizouken is heavily featured on HBO Max as one of the few Crunchyroll acquisitions they were proud of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re gonna do a robot show, hire people who care about them. Give Obari a check. The design will kick ass even if the writing is bleh. Magic Knight Rayearth? The mechanical designs were his, one of the rare instances of CLAMP getting male help on a core part of production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course that brings up the question of if these will be original properties or existing IP’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mostly just know them for the Boondocks and Korra. All animation Studio's can flub some episodes or scenes. Like sometimes Riley in the boondocks would go moe blob UwU mode. There could also be some elitisms going on over non Japanese studios making anime. Also Netflix has some slant against it by anime fans ever since they produced Neo Yokio. American Anime fans also have a lot of grudges ingrained especially fans who have been around since pre anime bubble days. There was a lot of effort put in by elitists in the bubble days to define anime as something different from cartoons. We all I am sure had that conversation saying "It's anime" when someone asked about those japanese cartoons we're watching. Also the fact that Netflix is now the more common entry point for casuals to start watching anime. So there seems to be some worries of the quality that is being made available and setting back mainstream acceptance as a credible medium of story telling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Yokio's inception had nothing to do with Netflix. It was left over from FOX's Animation Domination back when they tried transforming it into an hour of original programming, that in the end didn't even last a year and never got to air it.

No I don't do it to spite you, I do it for fun. Was just pissed that poke told me to shut the fuck up when I wasn't doing anything that wasn't already done by people he was agreeing with. His reaction was uncalled for and I went the extra mile to dish it back to him. Been under a lot of stress lately and don't like coming onto the board and being insulted for nothing.

Netflix claims a LOT of stuff as an original series! They regularly claim anime they got from a third-person party that already aired before on a Japanese broadcast network as a "Netflix original"!
