Animation question

How do you feel that Japan has completely surpassed us in terms of pure artistry and skill?

Is there anything the west can do in order to compete?

nope we just play it off as a big joke and it magically works

Japan has lower frame rates than cartoon networks weekly shows. Ghibli is one of the few companys that handles animation well.

The reason Japanese animation is so good is because they overwork and underpay their animators. It's basically slave labor over there for those poor animators.They have to work on a half-dozen side-projects at a time just to make ends meet and work 7-day weeks and tons of overtime. Many of them sleep at the office and there's an epidemic of working themselves to death.

That's why Japanese animation is so good.

Meanwhile, here in the west, animators are made up largely of people who have never known hardship and never developed a work ethic, which is why you get people who throw cry-tantrums when randos on an imageboard point out how horribly off-model their shitty art is.

They have? Oh wait, no they haven't. Disney animation is still the best in the world and most japanese animation looks like shit.

There's a lot of absolute garbage Japanese animation out there because it saves a shitton of money and time to use as many shortcuts as possible, which is why you get so many shows where a huge chunk of each episode is taken up by the characters sitting still or their torsos bobbing slowly while their mouths flap (and god forbid anyone's chin moves while they talk).

Most anime only has good animation during fight scenes. The rest of the time it looks like college students animated it.

>Is there anything the west can do in order to compete?
thing is, the catered audience for cartoons are children. so, much more simplistic animations will suffice.

you'd never see this type of shit in a Western tv cartoon:

it's different for animated movies though. both can dish out really well animated films.

Nah, our action still looks better animated.

Why are weebs allowed to shit up this board with their shit taste?

Shitty mods

Here's a film animated with oil paintings in the style of Vincent Van Gogh

They make series that aren't intended to go on forever and be renewed for more seasons. You can showcase your talent as a studio far better that way.

>the west is proud of Jewsney
OH NO NO NO NO

Frame rate is irrelevant if you make the frames good looking enough. Western cartoons are OBSESSED with simplistic art design and excuse it with "muh budget". The simplistic design is meant to make the subject matter "easier to animate" (which is just an excuse for laziness) while the animation itself gets lazier too as a result.

They are. Just because it makes you mad doesn't make it not so. Even the japanese treat Disney better than their own animation.

why does the oscars always go to american movies and never to that sameface anime stuff?

stop equating one segment of entertainment and negating everything else?
