Why should there be different boards for anime and cartoons? What are the differences between anime and cartoons?

drop this needle meme on back to Sup Forums you poo poo head

Too much anime made each season and too many anime fans, they'd flood the board and western cartoons would have to fight for their life each passing moment to avoid being pushed to page 10.

>the more popular topic stays on front page
So what? Both are animation just different styles.Why should there be 2 different boards for animation?

Because cartoons are kiddie trash and Sup Forums doesn't want their board to be tarnished with that garbage

Weebs would throw a fit.

Sup Forums is a containment board. Same reason /mlp/ is separate from Sup Forums.

Agreed cartoons are trash. Kiddie toon fans don't deserve a board.

it's a matter of eastern content vs western content. i've seen arguments for it to be sliced into anime/cartoons for one board and manga/comics for the other, but the cons outweigh the pros. i think the majority of both boards are happy with the east/west split, trying to split it by medium is just going to create animosity and chaos.

They don't have one, this is basically a comics board that tolerates the occasional toonposter.

Should we also split Sup Forums and Sup Forums according to geography? If not then why for animation?

Difference in audience.

The majority of people who watch anime or read manga doesn't read comics or watch cartoons, regularly at least. And looking at the general attitude in Sup Forums I'm quite positive there's not a lot of people here who cross streams with Sup Forums that often.

...

Cartoons are NOT "kiddie trash".
They are a legitimate art form with plenty of artistic merit.

It's just a different style of animation compared to anime

because Eastern music/TV are nowhere as influential and popular as their Western equivalents, which is not the case for animation

i'm not completely disagreeing with you, i just think it falls more into "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" territory. to answer your question, i don't really see much discussion on Sup Forums or Sup Forums about international artists or shows to the extreme extent that japanese media is talked about on Sup Forums. creating splinter/extension boards mostly stems from overcrowding of threads involving the respective content, like how pointed out about /mlp/ becoming a necessity.

BAHAHA

That's called being in denial.

No it's called being "Correct"

Anime is just one style of animation. notice how most anime looks very similar to other animes stylistically.

There isn't just one correct way to animate things or to tell a story. cartoons is a different genre but it has just as much artistic merit as anime

You literally posted anime with your post.

KPOP is pretty popular internationally including the west.Spanish music is also extremely popular like Despacito. Should there be kpop music board as well?

...

It's universal because it works, user.

Anime are carton too weeb

there actually is a kpop board on the Russian equivalent of Sup Forums

Nah, it's just another way to brush stuff off and stay in comfort zone. That's why it's universal.

We are talking about Sup Forums. Kpop music board doesn't exist on Sup Forums.

This post show male and female characters in vastly different positions and expressions to make things look more diverse than what they actually are.

I'm not denying there is definitely stylistic diversity here, but it's being represented in an exaggerated way with this picture

Aniway, You missed my main point. Anime is a genre of animations. Cartoons is another genre of animation. Both of them have their own artistic merits just like how both rock music and electronic music have artistic merits

No, anime is actual animation with talented effort put into making it. Cartoons are just slapped together to make money, even the "good" ones.

I think the general attitude moot had back then is that if a board could be split, he will split it.

The reason there's not a manga board is that it'll be too slow aside from a few threads for big series. If manga discussion is more prevalent in Sup Forums, it'll probably be a split board by now.

Because if they did share a board one side would completely overwhelm the other, and despite what Sup Forums believes they would be "the other" in that situation.

In addition there's very little overlap in people who mostly watch cartoons and people who mostly watch anime, since people seek out each one for different reasons. Imagine trying to convince someone who's favorite shows are Fate Zero or Monogatari why they should watch Star vs or the Loud House.

Cartoons is actual animation with talent and effort put into it too. you are 100% wrong here.

In regards to the profit motive, both anime and cartoons are made with a profit motive in mind

Come back when there is a western animated tv show nearly as weird as Serial Experiments Lain or as mature as Monster.Those shows are almost from 20 years ago.

You just don't get the difference, do you?

Yes, both have a profit motive, we (sadly) live under capitalism after all. But almost everyone who works in the cartoon industry is a HACK.

There are hacks working in anime as well, of course. But there are also many people who actually have significant talent and put a lot of effort into making said talent appear on screen.

Every post you make is stupid.

You're talking about genres retard, Anime is just a term for japanese animation. They're as much cartoons to them as cartoons are cartoons to you

I have never seen those shows, but there were plenty of very bizarre western animated shows

Porn has more interesting and compelling stories than 99.999% of cartoons.

You need a helicopter ride you commie faggot

Show me where i was wrong. the image he posted clearly showed characters with completely different facial expressions, and he also compared male characters with female characters.

And he did it to create the impression anime is more diverse stylistically than what it actually is

Courage is good, but it's like "baby's first experimental series" compared to anime.

Because Sup Forums would freak out that it's not their glorious Nippon for mature indivuals

okay, that's your opinion. if you enjoy pornography more than the artistic effort of talented artists that's up to you

At least you give western animation credit by admitting it's a good show

It's good for a cartoon is what I mean. No cartoon compares to anime, except maybe if we're talking about some seriously terrible animes.

Anime is fucking trash

There is no variation,nuance,compelling storytelling,artistic cinematography and cinematic artstyles in cartoons.All of which are abundant in anime.This makes toons kiddie trash.

>oy vey muh six trillion
Fuck off, kike. 9/11 was an inside job.

It's not just good for a cartoon, its good period.

I judge how good things are by how much i enjoy them. and that's how you should judge things too

That just means you haven't watched enough anime. If you had, you wouldn't enjoy Courage very much. (Here on Sup Forums that's called shit taste.)

ignoring the artstyles, anime is produced at a much more rapid rate than western cartoons. There's a reason anime fans have seasons, it's just so much anime being produced. if anime was allowe on Sup Forums, normal cartoons would be drowned out by the sheer number of anime to disscuse before the next season.

>anime

>compelling storytelling

i wanted this to be a civil thread and i tried to steer it in a decent direction but y'all are nutty, what gives?

>I only watch mature anime for mature people such as myself

You fags are considered cancer in your own fucking community

>All of which are abundant in anime
Yeah man, 10FPS animation is the best amrite
FUCK OFF

We're not nutty, we're pissed off that cartoons are shit, and even more pissed off that morons like you are still watching them despite that fact.

I haven't watched alot of anime or alot of cartoons because my main interest is music (i'm a Sup Forumstant)

But from what i have seen, i think anime and western cartoons are just completely different styles, and both of them have plenty of artistic merit.

Dismissing an entire genre of animation is dumb - that's like dismissing all pop music because jazz and classical exist

you have to remember this is Sup Forums, the land of hyperbole, black and white morality and trolling. You would ironically find more decent discussion on youtube

What we really need is to have a comic/sequential art board and give toon-fags their containment board.

Live action movies >>>>>>>>>>>> SHIT >>>>>>> anime=cartoons

It's not a fucking genre! Anime is just animation made in Japan, that's it. Genres are not defined by country of origin.

I was reading manga and watching anime back when they still read left to right and were called Japanimation.

But I look at Sup Forums and at any given moment it's 99% shit.

>and give toon-fags their containment board
For what purpose? There's barely any original discussion of cartoons here as it is.

>I dindu nuffin!
Fuck off. You knew exactly what you were doing, sticking your hand into the autistic beehive.

Nah, they are definitely different genres with stylistic differences
