We need an anime crash. Too many light novel isekai adaptions, not enough good stories. Change my mind.

The year is 2009 and you're literally saying this about the latest moeblob/Kyoani copycat anime of the season.

Changing mainstream tastes got nothing to do with improving anything about the industry, the trend chasers will just pick something else.

I was saying it then too because anime has been getting progressively worse since it's inception

Original Gundam had a scene where a woman falls in love with a guy who slaps her for being hysterical.

The latest Gundam has a main character declare in the first episode that everyone is bi and that being straight is some backwater hick shit.

Okay I have never been so thoroughly schooled in a single comment.

For every JJK and OPM there are like 10 different isekai type animes. You just don't get them all dubbed.

I'm sick of scantily clad prepubescent girls in anime that are "actually adults."

We peaked at DBZ

Personally i think this has been an issue for a long time and it has always existed. It just hit such an over saturation point for so long id rather just have the whole thing burn than let it keep going

[-] SSJ2Marx@hexbear.net 26 points 5 months ago

The whole industry currently relies on an army of artists who work for next to nothing until they burn out. IDK if a crash would help but it certainly can't make it any worse.

We had an anime crash. In the 90's. During the Lost Decade.

The entire reason we're flooded with low quality otaku facing garbage is because it's the only stuff that remains profitable during an economic crisis, because the only people spending money on non-essentials like dvds and merchandise are people whose entire identity is centered around that specific type of product consumption, and if the industry doesn't cater to them you go out of business because no one else is buying.
