i mean i dont mind if we are cuz thats pretty progressive but ive never seen that before

2018-08-25 22:27:44 UTC  

It's mainly a conversation on whether anime has sucked since the 90's ended

2018-08-25 22:27:48 UTC  

also i just thought of a great example

2018-08-25 22:27:57 UTC  

fullmetal alchemist

2018-08-25 22:28:05 UTC  

had a 2004 release and a 2009 release

2018-08-25 22:28:10 UTC  

looking back, the greatest experience I've had with any anime comes in movie format, but that's sort of cheating, since the same is true for ALL animation, A movie, per hour invested, is *almost* always better than a series

2018-08-25 22:28:24 UTC  

anime hasent been my taste since the 90s

2018-08-25 22:28:24 UTC  

oh I just bought that entire series

's manga

2018-08-25 22:28:33 UTC  

but thats not to say there cant be good anime

2018-08-25 22:28:43 UTC  

i mean trigun was made in the 2000s

2018-08-25 22:28:48 UTC  

Most anime these days are overridden by awful tropes.

2018-08-25 22:28:53 UTC  

Usually dumb main characters.

2018-08-25 22:28:54 UTC  

I think FMA is seriously overrated. It's good, but I wouldn't say it's great. It's certainly great compared to other similar shonen series, but that's about it

2018-08-25 22:28:58 UTC  

arch-fiend you should watch megalobox

2018-08-25 22:29:03 UTC  

it's a love letter to 90's anime

2018-08-25 22:29:25 UTC  

Huh
I never preferred movies to any other medium tbh

2018-08-25 22:29:41 UTC  

too short
too shallow

2018-08-25 22:29:51 UTC  

there is a lot of 90s anime i still havent seen so ill have to get around to things when i get around to them

2018-08-25 22:29:53 UTC  

He didn't say he preferred them. He said, per hour invested, you get more entertainment.

2018-08-25 22:29:59 UTC  

Because a lot of series will have some shitty episodes.

2018-08-25 22:29:59 UTC  

i don't think FMA is particularly amazing, but it is really good for a shonen series

2018-08-25 22:30:15 UTC  

And you waste an hour or two watching shitty episodes.

2018-08-25 22:30:15 UTC  

theres also old anime that wasent good

2018-08-25 22:30:20 UTC  

and the difference between FMA and brotherhood is crazy

2018-08-25 22:30:20 UTC  

lets not kid ourselfs

2018-08-25 22:30:23 UTC  

Where you could just spend an hour or two watching a good movie.

2018-08-25 22:30:52 UTC  

Movies can definitely be too short to go into any real depth. I consider their main positive in being how easy they are to watch with other people

2018-08-25 22:31:13 UTC  

ah, that must be why I don't like em that much

2018-08-25 22:31:19 UTC  

movie series' usually are what do it for me

2018-08-25 22:31:52 UTC  

i mean i hate inuyasha and bleach and those arnt particulerly young anime

2018-08-25 22:31:53 UTC  

evangelion reboots, madoka movies, there's one i can't remember the name of that was a very good x-men ripoff

2018-08-25 22:31:57 UTC  

Also movies in general have been in a slump lately. If it's not a reboot, a sequel, or a cape film it's not getting much funding

2018-08-25 22:32:05 UTC  

i hate eva, i hate dragonball z

2018-08-25 22:32:19 UTC  

yeah when's the last time a good movie got made

2018-08-25 22:32:27 UTC  

Most of those are for kids

2018-08-25 22:32:27 UTC  

looking to the last 20 years or so, my favorite anime have all been Westernized as fuck or highly experimental (or pandering to my fetishes). Panty & Stocking, Space Dandy, etc.

2018-08-25 22:32:32 UTC  

anime movie or western movie?

2018-08-25 22:32:34 UTC  

my favorite is from 2009

2018-08-25 22:32:48 UTC  

Western movies

2018-08-25 22:32:58 UTC  

i don't watch many of those lmao
