Garnt sorta mentioned something I noticed for a while now. People say that anime got worse with time and good anime is much more rare. But that depends on how you look at it. Back in the "good old times", there were seasons with like 5 anime series airing during it, two of which were great. Now we might have a season with over 40 series airing and 5 of them are great. The absolute amount of good anime increased, but its percentage dropped. There's also the fact that around half of the "good old" anime would probably seem like garbage if you rewatch it now without any nostalgia filter. For example, autumn 1992. Tenchi Muyo Ryo-Ohki and Yu Yu Hakusho started. Nuku Nuku was also kinda okay. And a bunch of series that no one remembers or cares about. Only two great series in a season. That is not exactly great. Winter 1993 right after it, just 5 OVA episodes of Ah My Goddess. Which would probably not even be fun today. Summer 1992, the only decent one was Bastard. And even that greatly loses to modern Maou Gakuin and, as seen with the remake, did not age well at all.
@mardshima2070 Жыл бұрын
Imo one thing that can also make people biased with "good old anime" is how they binge watching anime when they started to hooked up with anime. At the beginning people usually gonna binge watch a bunch of those amazing/legendary shows such as FMAB, Clannad, Death Note, ect within short amount of time. Then after they began to simply catch up with seasonal anime they will find that there fewer nowadays (seasonal) anime that is good (pique their interest). In the past they can find and watch several title of good anime within a month or even week, but now they can only find one or two within 3 months.

The thing is, generic shonen fans aren't any louder than Marvel ones. It's just that movies in general are popular enough where you're always exposed to a wider breadth of genres -not just MCU movies. Anime is simply too niche for that.

Scifi was really really big first because of the space race (all the classics scifi books were written in that period) and a second wave came from japan because in the 80s it was The country of technical innovation and stuff (also star wars). Scifi is a really difficult genre to pull off, very expensive on tv/cinema, beaten both on the serious and less serious side in literature by other genres (standard novel and fantasy), and in general is less relevant in the mind of the general population.

This isn't really unique to anime, it's just Sturgeon's Law, "90 % of everything is crap". Hell, I'd argue it's less of an issue with anime than a lot of other media given how easy it often is to separate trashy and derivative anime from higher quality stuff when looking for something to watch. If the title is overly long-winded and dumb sounding, the art and animation is flat and generic and the synopsis sounds like the description of a sub-genre rather than a story, there's a 99,9 % chance you can skip it without missing out on anything. If you're still afraid that "I was reincarnated as a level 999 mage in another world with my mother's ex-boyfriend's step-sister's second cousin removed and a high-end gaming laptop" might end up being a subversive masterpiece and a touchstone of our generation, you could also just look up some reviews.

Can't even remember modern Scifi Mecha (the limited genre he likes) classics like Code Geass nor Gurren Lagan properly. Hates even the most well recieved mainstrean modern animes for even western casuals (AOT, Death note), which showcase he is not a good representative for evaluation of overall animes (doubt he would appreciate the modern classics like Vinland Saga, Violet Evergarden, Made in Abyss etc) with his very limited taste (even for his limited taste of SciFi and Mecha, since he may not like 86 or 'Legend of the Galactic Heroes' for being political, 'Trapped in a Dating Sim' or 'Lycoris Recoil' for being cheap sexualization.)

While it is true that about 90% of not just anime but any medium in general is trash, you only get to say that after you've watched hundreds of titles, including all the worthwhile ones. Then you can complain about how most of it is trash and there's nothing left for you to watch. Out of the TT boys, I would accept this comment only from Joey. Mr. "I've watched 8 anime but I don't remember which" calling an entire medium he hasn't explored trash comes off as either stupidity or arrogance like "I'm too good to watch this anime thing since 90% of is trash anyway. Not that I've watched any".

Also you don't know how many he has watched maybe he has watched a hundred separate anime and he just doesn't remember most because he doesn't come at the shows for story he seems to (from his words at least) just want something that allows him to relax and relieve anxiety by watching monkey brain cool shit, and it seems that by watching said shit if there is a story there it will find him whether or not he wants to. And if that story triggers the part of his brain that recognizes political stuff (and only political stuff other intellectual concepts haven't been stated to turn him away) especially the kind from our world he stops watching. You don't get to gatekeep the idea of having negative opinions on anime because no one does. Everyone is different and seeks different things from the media they consume and liking "monkey activation" cool robots, pretty animation and older sci-fi genre styles is not a bad thing. And liking power fantasy harem stuff, the modern trendy stuff like isekai, or more politically charged things isn't bad either. No show is truly bad for everyone even the worst shit will have a fan and the highest acclaimed piece will have detractors. Tldr: just because someone might not watch anime or watches it for different reasons than you does not mean their opinion is bad or good because its an opinion and its subjective. So don't worry about it. P.s. If you feel like someone is wrong about anime or any other umbrella topic try to find what they like in other media and give them a recommendation that you enjoyed that is along those lines. If they enjoy it now you have something to talk about, if they didn't try again with a now better understanding of what they enjoy.

Garnt, Gundam isn't that confusing. You got two types of show. You got the UC timeline that is literally just critiquing modern politics, war, and society with giant robots and fucked up bullshit you see in war. Then you have the alternate timelines where the writers can explore characters, interesting plots, and goofy ass ideas. The series is not that hard to get into.

Garnt, the Fate fan, talking about Gundam being hard to get into. As a fellow Nasuverse enjoyer, I find that hilarious.

"Most anime is garbage" What a weird takeaway... Y'all know Hallmark has like 40 new unremarkable Christmas movies a year? And Netflix easily breaks 100. But no one's out here saying "Most live action film is garbage"

Most media is garbage. I don't think most people love *media* they like a book series, or a specific movie, or a game franchise. If you enjoy "anime" you are probably enjoying it in a way that is atypical of most people. Likely more tolerant of some of the tropes or value things exclusive to the medium. I honestly think the anime fandom is weird because so many people are like this (how many people watch movies vs being really into movies?), but it's probably because it was niche for such a long time that most viewers were people who went out of their way to watch it. Now that anime is becoming more mainstream, I hear the opposite "I love anime." But they're not into the medium, they just found a few shows they like and are just as unlikely to leave their comfort zone as they were before.

Doesn't really have to do with this video but the best anime for me that has come out in the past 3 years is dragon quest 2020 and once it is done I will definitely look up other anime from the creator of it. The crazy thing is that it seems so underrated to me like no one is talking about it. Sure maybe its because its a remake or people think it is based on the games but I have yet to see a better anime come out. I also haven't really played the games or watched the original so maybe that's it I don't know.

the manga 'Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai' was a mega hit in Japan and asian countries, it was top 9 upto 2009 (although last manga published in 1996), sold more than Yuyuhakusho, Jojo, HxH, Bleach etc with over 50 M copies. I think 3 reasons the anime was not that discussed is 1. the original fans are kind of old now, usually in 30s and 40s 2. the anime adaption does not look good, esp the color looks terrible even compared to the first anime adaption version. 3. There was not enough hype advertising, esp to the western audience who are not familiar. nontheless, the story is still briliant (many old fans remember it) esp it's basically the 'Adventure of Popp, the most well developed side character who suited better for the main character', so it will be a real treasure treat for anyone who discovers it.

There are tonnes of great scifi books and the reason the industry doesn’t deal with bringing new stuff to the markets is because they have already purchased an IP that has been proven to work. So thy just keep making it, just look at MCU and StarWars, it’s literslly the same 3-5 basic narratives that are being remixed and published. Same with isekai, noone is doing anything fresh, or subverts the tropes in an interesting way anymor, and why should they when the audience eats this up with a spoon. I’d also say that anime has fallen in story complexity since Japan started to seriously to foreign audiences, that is the reason why you do not see a new challenging the audience stuff like Memories, GITS, Angels Egg, Jin Roh, Akira, Haibane Renmei, Yokohama Kaidashi Kiyo, Welkome to the HNK, Paprika, Paranoia Agent, or even Gasaraki. This will come to an end though, when the gen Z has grown up more and want to tell their stories. As an older millenial I think our generation of creators dropped the ball on this, and got to focused on just surviving, which I totally get. Im the same.

The thing about anime is that when it’s good it really strikes a chord, but when it’s bad it’s not just your everyday run-of-the-mill bad, it is the worst thing you have ever seen in your entire life. No other medium has reached the terrifying lows that bad anime has reached.

EHHHHHHHHHH I wouldn't do such a generalization. There are a bunch of bad TV shows, books, and movies that are just as bad as bad anime, 90% of any given medium is mediocre, anime is just newer so it doesn't have nearly as much quantity.
