Well with Sheen gone, Two and a Half Men will be in the shitter. Not that I particularly like Seinfeld or Friends but they were considered must watch TV in the 90s.

And Community, 30 Rock, Modern Family and Sunny are considered must watch in this decade. At least for me.

That's what I said...

I think the ratings will be super high initially then people will fade away. They'll still be high of course, it's CBS afterall

who gives a fuck about ratings. :lol I think the general public often accidentally watches something good en mass. For example Modern Family is great and is currently one of ABC's most popular shows.

Would you look at that, duckroll's a passive aggressive cunt when you take away the mod powers and his circlejerk. I PMed him on another forum that I lurk and he just ignored me. Guess he didn't really care if I was right or not, he just didn't like my posts  :P

I checked the official store and his work so far has been definitely of the lower tier. This one is slightly better; the back is inoffensive (detail-overload though), but the front still packs some of the things I hate about his work. His obsession with 3D perspectives is mind boggling.

Speaking of m0dus, I checked the Metroid anniversary thread, and saw this in the Fanart section:

... and thought it really good. The guy has the tool set and capabilities, but dammit if his taste level isn't questionable at times.

That's not the reason why I brought up the anniversary thread page, by the way. This gem is the real reason:

Oh yeah, the good old times. I fondly remember the Gainax bounce and other assorted fanservice near the end.

I still try to return to anime from time to time, but usually find myself gravitating to the stuff I watched back in the days. Whatever. It's the same with games and books and movies and ...a huge number of other things, really. Comes with that whole aging thing, methinks.

That said, I'm kind of in the mood for a Trigun run now after skipping through Bebop recently. Heard there was a movie in 2010. Anyone know if it's good?

No he's talking about Rockbanned which still is a GAF offshoot whether he wants to admit it or not. And it's probably the crappiest one too.

Ranma is not ABOUT boobies OR pedophilia. Neither is Tenchi. Or Ah My Goddess. These were stories that had global appeal because they were funny and awesome. To say anime has always been this way is false. Harem anime didn't REALLY take off until the success of Love Hina. After that, anime got crazier and crazier and more niche.

To say there ISN'T a dearth of more mature anime television on air today is also false.

Stuff like what's on the air today, back in the day would have been some weird ass one shot or some ova no one cares about. It was hardly standard and that's because anime studios tried to appeal to multiple demographics, they didn't try to fit everyone into one hole or appeal solely to the otaku demographic.

Magus, go watch Demon King Daimo, Queen's Blade, Manyuu Hikenchou, Kodomo no Jikan, Onii-chan no Kotto, Hen Zemi, To Love-Ru, Princess Lover, Ladies versus Butlers, Samurai Girls, Juuden-Chan, Ikkitousen, Yosuga no Sora, Freezing, or Seikon no Qwaser.

Your argument is here is that "lol Tenchi Muyo had nudity so anime hasn't changed it all!!!!"? REALLY? Have you watched any recent anime? Do you have any idea what you're talking about? I'd have to say that the answer to those two is almost certainly "Yes". Or you're trolling. Fanservice is becoming more and more the focus of these animes. Characters don't matter. Story doesn't matter. None of that matters.

They set up a flimsy excuse, throw in a ton of big-breasted female characters and then take every opportunity to unclothe them. We're not talking about the undetailed nudity of Ranma. We're talking about shots that zoom in as far as possible. Each detail rendered in the most realistic [or not] way possible. Throw in some groping tentacles/hands/ect. and lots of fluids and a heavy dose of sexual suggestion and you've got the prefect recipe for the latest anime hit.

This is the NORM now. This isn't a random OVA that barely makes it in the corner of the movie shop and maybe one or two people even glance at. This is on TV. This is what's POPULAR. This is what's MAKING MONEY. If you still can't see how bad things have gotten, and are getting, then I just don't know what more to say.

mature is an abused and stupid word that people use to make them feel better,you want to know what's anime for most people? endless hordes of shonen,dragon ball,one piece,naruto,full metal alchemist you name it,none of this stuff is more or less mature than cowboy bebop

so everything would be solved if the people that made pervy stuff had less budget? ??? that's the problem? ??? is now "pervy" the standard because someone made an anime with an all-girl cast that was popular? ???

No, it's the standard because the people who are out there spending lots and lots of money want more and more pervy anime. And the pervier the better.

Why in the world are you bringing K-On? No one's talking about K-On here and has no reason to.

Again:

Magus, go watch Demon King Daimo, Queen's Blade, Manyuu Hikenchou, Kodomo no Jikan, Onii-chan no Kotto, Hen Zemi, To Love-Ru, Princess Lover, Ladies versus Butlers, Samurai Girls, Juuden-Chan, Ikkitousen, Yosuga no Sora, Freezing, or Seikon no Qwaser.

You're deliberately obfuscating the point. The point isn't that pervy anime is all there is. Or that good shows don't still exist. Pervy anime is, unfortunately, far bigger than it ever was, but even that isn't the point. THE POINT is that pervy anime is becoming worse and worse and it's infiltrating TV in a very big way. Watch those shows and look at the how the fanservice is treated. Look at the money involved to animate those scenes. Look at the detail. Look at how much groping, fluids, and suggestion is present in those scenes. Now go watch Ranma and enjoy the stark contrast.

i also don't see the problem with this,there is a waaaaaaay bigger list of anime that aren't these,so why are people complaining that these exist and that THE STANDARD HAS CHANGED! i mean heck this also comes from himuro which is a pretty avid one piece reader,a series that has been going for 12 years? and he complains about a standard change?

And you continue to the miss the point.

See here:

A lot of my favorites from the past few years are shows that wouldn't necessarily stand out, at least as much, during the 90's or early 00's. They're the weirder shows, the more off-beat stuff that's not straight action or giant robots or inspired by Blade Runner/Mad Max. Shows like Trapeze, Detroit Metal City, Madoka, Ano Hi Mita Hana, Soredemo Machi [even though it's basically just slice-of-life with really strong direction and some visual panache], Level E, Panty & Stocking, Tentai Senshi Sunred, Time of Eve, and the like.

The only "traditional" anime I can think of recently [i.e. the past four years] that I really liked was Darker than Black.

And here:

We're not talking about the undetailed nudity of Ranma. We're talking about shots that zoom in as far as possible. Each detail rendered in the most realistic [or not] way possible. Throw in some groping tentacles/hands/ect. and lots of fluids and a heavy dose of sexual suggestion and you've got the prefect recipe for the latest anime hit.

This is the NORM now. This isn't a random OVA that barely makes it in the corner of the movie shop and maybe one or two people even glance at. This is on TV. This is what's POPULAR. This is what's MAKING MONEY.

And here:

Look at the money involved to animate those scenes. Look at the detail. Look at how much groping, fluids, and suggestion is present in those scenes. Now go watch Ranma and enjoy the stark contrast.

Except it wasn't? whether you consider K-On pedophile pandering or not isn't the point. The point is that there is a very clear support for that demographic coming from the industry, and a lot of people get turned off because of that. THAT was the point of the argument.

1. More and more anime is skewing towards the otaku audience, focusing on gross fanservice and vapid characters/storylines. Yes, those shows are worse than Ranma and Tenchi Muyo, a few searches on Google should give you more than evidence to prove that point a thousand times over.

2. That's pushing the "traditional" anime like GitS and Cowboy Bebop [and so on] into the corner. Darker than Black was the one of the last and that was over four years ago. Maybe FMA, but that's more shounen than DtB. One of the few since then that comes close is Tiger & Bunny and that didn't start airing until just a few months ago.

3. Nothing will stop shounen anime, but that's a different topic entirely.

4. If you want something that's really good [and not shounen], then you've got to dig for the quirky, off-beat shows that generally have a smaller budget. And you can thank Noitamina for most of those.

I don't watch them either, but it's pretty clear that there's a lot of these kinds of shows out there and there's more and more [and they get worse and worse] with each new season. It's a trend, and a pretty clear one at that.

i still think you are exagerating but i guess i'm not an avid anime watcher to begin with...

He's not exaggerating.  There's a number of things that have led to the anime industry turning into its current state, but the quick version is that only your hardcore-perverted otaku-types are willing to shell out out money for anime-related goods and pay the ridiculous prices for DVDs and Blu-Rays, so the anime industry is churning out crap that they would be interested in.   Moe/harem crap has taken over.  I don't have a problem with fan service, but something is wrong when the basis for a cartoon is showing KAWAIIII~ GENKIIIIIII UGUUUUUU 12 year-old schoolgirls in various states of undress, at the beach/hot springs/school/other stereotypical animu location, in cliche situations as they fight for the attention of the single "average Japanese student" (AKA the BORING personality-devoid kid with spiky hair) who is always scared of girls and kissing and shit.  Even Agent Aika made far more creative use of its endless panty-shots and upskirts than any of the crap being shat out today.

When I was younger, I loved me some anime.  Ranma 1/2, Riding Bean, Bubblegum Crisis, Urusei Yatsura, Fist Of The Northstar, etc.  Great stuff.  In the past five years, I have loved two shows.  TWO.  I love the Japanese anime/manga art style, but the storytelling just sucks shit at this point.

I wonder if it's part of a wider sociological trend as young adult males look toward teenage girls due to a lack of emotional maturity :tophat

Definitely. Hell, most of the girls-age threads suggest GAFers just want a a young, desperate girl who will put up with them playing videogames for hours and refusing to do anything for her. An actual woman won't put up with that shit.

Women like being with whoever they're dating. You don't want to be a push over and do everything she wants, but just hanging out with a chick for a few hours watching Glee or whatever the fuck she wants to do buys you some Pussy Chips. Eventually you get to turn them shits in and hit it

You're special fistful. But after that 22 year old 'Hello Kitty' thread I get the feeling some guys want a 14 year old that looks 18 but still acts as if they are 14.

Anime is pervy because Japan is pervy.  Note there are different levels of perv.  There is the REALLY GOOD ANIME with small pervy jokes and you feel awkward watching it around NON-WEABOO but they gotta deal with it and then there are the shows that are ENTIRELY perv and uh, yeah.  About the only thing entirely non-perv is Ghibli.  Even Kon movies are a bit pervy (Perfect Blue, some of Paprika; Millennium Actress is 100% perv free I think).

Like Kemonotsume is a badass show about people eating monsters and it still has lots of perv moments.  Same with Tatami Galaxy which is really good!  Then you have Bakemonogatari which is an amazing show entirely based around perv conversations.

Paranoia Agent had a few pervy moment, but they weren't just random segments thrown in to get nerds hot and bothered, they actually had narrative value.

Like the school teacher whose alternate personality is a total slut, for instance.

That's where a lot of difference comes into play. That, and the way it's presented. Live-action movies have nudity and sex, but is it there just to be porn or is it part of the story? For most of the series I listed earlier in the thread, it's the former. Sheer amount is part of it, too. Those shows take every opportunity to add in more.

Since we've been talking about Cowboy Bebop recently: Faye. Yeah, she wears skimpy clothes a lot and tends to get attention from the camera, but it rarely comes across as sleazy. She's also an adult, so there's that. And she has an actual personality and character traits, rather than just being a brainless sod.

I think most anime fans here don't have a problem with fanservice, per se, but in how its presentation is trending in modern anime. It's more detailed. It's sleazier. It's a bigger part of the show. It's used a lot with clearly underaged characters.

On a scale of Normal to GAF how embarassing do you think the Persona 4 anime will be.
