>Badass

You need to be at least 18 old to post on Sup Forums

Sao happened

More like SoL moeshit like gay-on.

Anime became for faggots and pedophiles only

Shut ins and their loudmouths now control the industry as the vocal minority.

Still got it.

I would have liked to say that Akame ga Kill did it, but even that show was too half-assed, they should have keep the edge instead of going full shonen mode.

Thread is beyond shit.

>I would have liked to say that Akame ga Kill did it
No KLK did

you should watch RE: Zero, it's legitimately brutal.

Was that a fucking demo reference? Is this whole thread a Demo reference?

There's no imagination anymore. Only full-blown otaku pandering.

If it's over ten years old it's badass.

If it's new it's EDGY.

Well yeah. Ultra violent old OVAs where usually more creative with their settings than "Angsty Highscooler: The Self Insertion".

>What happened?
women

Is this one of those threads were people that don't know shit about anime circlejerk about the "good old days" while they mostly talk obscure as shit OVA?

What movie is this?

Didn't i hear that Yoshiaki Kawajiri still wants to make another Ninja Scroll movie but can't get the funding?

>Was that a fucking demo reference?
Yes.

there are still lots of badass animes

there's just a lot more stuff being made in general so there's going to be way more shit as well
especially because such a huge part of the demo is really weak self-indulgent people with no taste for sex, violence or complexity in their anime

They were also almost universally shit, including the one in the OP, that's a minor point people tend to leave out of these threads.

Things like your pic are harder to distribute and sell, because of stupid shit like age ratings being allowed.

SF Shingeki Lensman

It hurts to live.

Anime nowadays focuses too much on trying to outdo the past and failing miserably at it. Take a look at Dragon Ball Super. I would rather rewatch the Buu Saga.

quality thread op

They where shit but are enjoyable because of their 80s cheesyness. New shows that try their hand at gritty grimderp take themselves too seriously while still following shitty anime cliches by the numbers.

On that note anyone dissapointed with 009 vs Devilman? Even Go Nagai has toned down his hyperviolence

Japan's economy happened

>using literally the only anime airing right now that is remotely similar to old anime as an example
>thinking this is proof of anything
try again kiddo

This. Every fucking "MANLY" gore OVA people jerk off is better left in the past.

I this anything more than a generic action movie that happens to be animated?

All generations of anime are garbage. The only good anime is the anime you enjoy. Your taste is shit.

Too many problematic CIS white males for you buddy?

No, you.

It's got "alphas," user, that makes it automatically good and creatively superior to a generic anything else.

Is there anything that even comes close to this style of beautiful matte backgrounds? That's the one thing that sticks out to me the most, that particular type of mechanical/electronic backgrounds with the lights and panels and weird wires and antennas and all that.

Kenshiro is superior to whatever limp-wristed preteen edgelord void of principals your spineless numale ass self inserts as.

nothing happened, you just aren't watching the right anime

>self inserting

I don't understand why they just died off in the late 90's or so, too much stuff looks bland as fuck these days with no detail.

Just a reminder that TV anime is shit and literally for children. OVAs and movies are the only viable formats for people who aren't autistic man children.

They also help rack up your watched anime count.

>Kenshiro
>good character
I swear nostalgiafags just want anime to be like Western blockbusters.

All anime should be like mahou shoujo.

I liked the first episode, but the rest of it was pretty fucking lame

...

Go to bed Akagi

OVAs are only a viable format if you're mentally fourteen and think quality is directly related to the amount of gore and death involved. Otherwise you run out of material pretty quickly.

The driver is badass.

Japanese developed shit taste and it became all SoL and moeshit now

I dont know why people think violent=good, its almost like there is only 14 years old turbonerds on this board.

Look to akame ga kill, 99% of the cast dead because the author cant write for shit and can only sell on shock value for edge 14 year old teens, is this what a badass anime is?

You guys are bad with your "muh violence, muh mature anime for mature and enlightened guys such as myself" in the same way autistic waifu fags are bad with waifufaggotry.

Neither side actually wants more quality, you just want anime to carter to your own refined brand of autism.

pornography is the most effective form of societal control.

>Sup Forums criclejerk

>I dont know why people think violent=good

Blame Game of Thrones

Everyone is a violent psychopath, killing and rape happen literally every milisecond and there are no colors besides shit brown and gray = mature

That's because AgK was practically softcore guro and now it isn't. I used to really love it but now that it's actually trying the series is falling apart.

Game of thrones isn't bad though, every main character that died had a perfectly fine set up for death and fit with their established character. Even if it come when you least expected it. At least for the first four seasons. Ned, Oberyn, Robb, Tywin, Joffrey and Robert all died in sensible ways.

>Game of thrones isn't bad though

Where did it all go so wrong?

>gangsta
that's not even funny as a joke dude that anime bankrupted manglobe

>look at me with my contrarian opinions guys!!!
end yourself

>ASoIaF
>bad
>a contrarian opinion

You people are so up yourself.

Shouldn't you be back on tumblr buddy?

yeah... hes died like 10 times now...

We are getting Drifters this year (from the creator of Hellsing):
youtube.com/watch?v=d4DcCVIPJJ0

One of the only characters that I came to like was Bols because he at least seemed somewhat human and not just a caricature, of course such a thing would never be allowed in agk and he and his family were killed off.

Ugh I'm flashing back to that manga from Junji Ito

>people honestly think otaku pandering is a new thing

>What happened?
People grew up and got bored of edgy teenage shit

>People grew up
More like grew out, and the millennial demographic replaced the target audience.

Man, last Sunday's episode was painfully predictable in every way

It's not old or new, it's something that doesn't actually exist.

I too miss these non existent old days

How would the main driving force behind the entire anime industry not exist, Jaden?

Why do people use this image like it represents all the studios and writers in japan

There's that image again.

The studio in question has basically never produced anything, he is not speaking on behalf of the entire industry, and there were and are people making "non-otaku" anime all the time, so his complaints are groundless.

Someone is not pandering just because they're making something you personally don't like.

think harder, what happened in Japan during the 90s. jesus crisis weebs are so tunnel vision

god that one snapping is the worst

>too much stuff looks bland as fuck these days with no detail.
Look at some other anime from 90/80s and you will see that on average they even blander than now

Yes. He made a teaser trailer to drum up funding but nobody's biting.

>too much stuff looks bland as fuck these days with no detail
The quality of background art in TV anime has gone up by leaps and bounds, and you sure as shit can't accuse it of lacking detail.

...

What's bottom right and the one above it?

I've always wondered, did that owner describe what he personally wanted to make? I mean, for all I know he could be the world's biggest advocate of yaoi bungee-jumping hentai.

That's what happens when you don't do anything for fifteen years and the studio you work at goes bankrupt in the meantime.

I need to look this up. The aesthetic is gorgeous. I can't believe there are kids who will talk shit on this in favor of modern anime.

user, zoom in on bottom-right a bit, I guarantee you can recognize it.

I thought illya was pretty bad ass

He seemed to want anime for the general public, which of course was being made and still is.

Moe has a very small niche market, there's no way it can ever have such a huge effect of the whole industry

Stop blaming the non factors

>that Star Wars video
>that music
Holy fuck that was great

I think its because in the 80's and 90's, movies and cartoons were just..... different, y'know? they all have that weird feel to them? I think that's what changed

I can't understand why this movie isn't more legendary and didn't get a bunch of sequels

Absolute fucking joy to watch, has mostly nothing to do with the original pulp stories but what the fuck ever

That's so broad, though. It just seems silly that people assume this literally who whose name they aren't even given in the photo would have made something good, let alone cater exactly to their tastes, just because he apparently doesn't like what he's making right now.

>....
Fuck off.

The couple clips that have been posted remind me of portions of the first part of FF7. More specifically, the raids on the Mako reactors and the escape from Shinra HQ.

Literally Han Solo and and Chewbacca in mindless pewpewpew action.

Many people are incredibly deluded and think everyone that makes anime, manga and videogames really want to make stuff like "mature and deep stuff" like "the good old days" and not what they currently enjoy doing
