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

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

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

movie series' usually are what do it for me

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

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

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

i hate eva, i hate dragonball z

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

Most of those are for kids

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.

anime movie or western movie?

my favorite is from 2009

Western movies

i don't watch many of those lmao

i am so behind on western movies

animated movies are underrepresented in what comes over here from japan

If you like isekai, I recommend Log Horizon and Overlord.

that i watched watchmen for the first time last week

But even they're overridden with some tropes.

anime that specifically aim to break boundaries and attempt to me more experimental, ironically making them more"Western"

The Watchmen movie is so close to being good

tropes arnt a bad thing

Bad tropes are.

perhaps

I specifically mean things like clueless male characters who have no idea chicks are flirting with him.

my best friend was killed by a trope

And when they do stupid and cringey bullshit.

eh thats an old trope

It's an old bad trope.

Anime has some of the worst cliches in existence.

i don't watch much slice of life or harem anime

so i don't see a whole lot of that

the only slice of life I've seen is squid girl

and when i do i watch the shit that toes the line super hard

tenchi muyo wasent bad, the first one wasent bad

I usually like isekais, where that bullshit seems rampant.

So I guess I do it to myself.
