After reading your list I've concluded that OP is right. These are years of tragedy if those are the shining examples of this decade.
You didn't take it serious enough when people called moe cancer. Moot in all his infinite wisdom even made another board for that shit yet the tumor hasn't receded. I feel sorry for kids growing up today to shows like k-on, nnb, and all the other plotless shows with no substance.

All true auteurs are dead or retired (except Yuasa). You can't expect quality entertainment with studio system and without any talented people.
I see at least 2-3 good shows a season, it's not as bad as it seems, there's just way more stupid bullshit than before in addition to the good stuff.
>>133082664
Name one good show from this year.

No, there's not. The bullshit was always there, and has always been there, you just forgot about it or don't/didn't know about it.

It's unfortunate that you have no attention span.

That's not a valid reason to hate something.
>>133082824
FMA:B has a crisp, clean, and fun storyline and a diverse set of characters that keep changing and maturing as the story goes on. It's not as deep as say, cowboy bebop, but certainly has a very mature theme prevailing the whole plot. it certainly is one of the best shows to come out in the last decades.

That's not a valid way to bat off criticism for something. I didn't find the characters, the setting or interactions between the characters particularly interesting. I got about 16 episodes in before I dropped it.
>That's not a valid reason to hate something.
Overrated shit typically set your expectations too high for a series, and you'll only be set up for disappointment. You're probably never going to the series after that as you'll always just be reminded about how disappointing it was.
I now try to convince myself that everything I watch is probably going to be shit, and I find myself enjoying a lot more.

>giving a shit list full of anime that should never represent the decade unless this decade is ACTUALLY the dark decade
IBO has potential to be a top-tier Gundam.
Kekkai Sensen
Shokugeki no Soma
A bunch of other series that were/are decent
That's just this year, which is 1/10th of the decade as a whole, and I haven't watched every single series that's aired, so I'm sure that there's probably something that I'd remember fondly a decade from now missing from the list.
The 10s might actually be the best time to be an anime fan. If not the 10s, then probably the late 00s. There's just been so many shows being released, and there's always at least a few good shows to watch if you actually like the medium.
>>133082795
I don't think that /a/ hates Cowboy Bebop so much as it hates all of the faggots who whine that Cowboy Bebop is the best anime ever and all anime should be made along the same lines, while bashing everything that isn't an outlier work and making assumptions about the people who watch them. Given a choice between letting these people make themselves comfortable on the board and discussing an anime that aired 16 years ago and has had all discussion wrung out of it, most of /a/ doesn't find the choice to be a difficult one.
Same goes for "muh 90s" and "muh MANIME". People here don't really hate the 90s, so much as they hate all of the stupid, ignorant casuals who claim that it was a golden age, largely based off of a dozen series or so, if that, spread across the entire decade.
>>133080302
>list doesn't have SEED, the show that saved the entire mech genre
>>133080302
As a anime and manga fan of over 30 years, no.
To me the dark ages were mid 2000s to early 10s, with the exception of the explosion that was 2006.
The last couple of years have been an improvement from those void years.
>>133083218
>talking about shows that have JUST begun to air

>thinks mass production of mediocre anime means "the best time to be an anime fan"
>>133083065
I dunno, I went in with high expectations for LOGH and it certainly delivered. Then again, it's hard to know if it qualifies as overrated, since it seems like very few people have watched it.
>>133083218
Fair enough. I'm at a point in my life where I don't have time to watch more than a season's worth of a show every couple of months with the other things I have on my plate, so I've been watching some older stuff and waiting to see what people say isn't shit from the newest seasons. I know I'm not in tune with /a/'s taste, but I'm still open to stuff like Samurai Flamenco and Durarara.

>/a/
>>133083277
People would have given that same greentext about Haruhi in 2006.
It's tough to tell which series are decade-defining for anime fandom as a whole until a significant amount of time has passed. You can really only speak for yourself. And speaking for myself, I really liked KS and SnS, and I'm also really enjoying IBO so far.
>mass production of mediocre anime
Mass production means more shit, but it also means more good shows. The problem with these rose tinted glasses of previous decades is that they're generally based on a very small handful of shows produced over an entire 10 years of time, and those series have had time to establish themselves as industry icons. They're also commonly seen by people with a small reference pool, and have been told to expect good things from them. When you're dealing with currently airing series, you have to wade through the potential shit to find them diamonds, and you're not given as much information to set expectations.
>>133083346
Anime really isn't all the time consuming of a hobby, though. Even a busy person like a CEO or doctor could spare the time to watch two movies per week, which is about how long it takes to watch a full 12 episode series.
>>133083538
Not him but why bother watching a show if you can find out that it isn't something that will appeal to you? Rather than waste a few hours every season finding out you hate something, you can use that to watch something from your backlog or shitpost on 4chan instead.
>>133083218
You just have really low standards.
>Kekkai Sensen
>Shokugeki no Soma
Jesus Christ. Comare this to GitS: SAC or Texhnolyze, or Haibane Renmei, or Mushishi, or Planetes, or many other classics.
>>133083107
I can understand everything on that list, even if I disagree with it, except for Ninja Slayer. It had no qualities, it was a piss poor parody, it looked bad, the comedy got boring after 3 episodes. I can save one or two things from it, definitely not enough to not make it shit.

>Not him but why bother watching a show if you can find out that it isn't something that will appeal to you?
It helps to diversify your tastes. Most series usually have something which makes it worth spending 24 minutes a week watching it.
Also by watching mediocre/forgettable series, it gives you a baseline to actually judge if something is good or not.
I typically watch around 25-35 shows each season.
>>133083676
The explanation is easy: you're lying and/or have shit taste.

Inuyasha (to be fair it started out great before going to utter shit)? Fullmetal Alchemist? Naruto? Code Geass? That's the best you can do for the 00's? How about Kikaider, Banner of the Stars, Hellsing, Full Metal Panic, .hack//SIGN, Gungrave, Last Exile, Gankutsuou, Mushishi, shit I could keep going, but you get the idea.
Posting a bait thread that should have been deleted two hours and a half ago
I think the real question that really persisted since forever is why there's so little ORIGINAL anime. As in, not just adaptations of already existing works which is the norm in the industry.
>>133083885
>>133083859
>>133083855
That's only about 10-14 hours a week (actually less, because a good chunk of those usually are short series), which is only an hour and a bit each day.
It doesn't take out that much time. Maybe it's because I actually like to watch anime unlike what a lot of /a/ seems to be like.
>>133083601
I didn't like Mushishi. I found it really boring.
>GitS: SaC
I'd put this about on par with KS in terms of how much I enjoyed it.
>Haibane Renmei
This was great, but I'm pretty sure that this would get shat on like crazy as pretentious/boring shit on /a/ if it aired today by the same people who like it now. Kinda like Gunbuster fans who scream "moeshit", and you certainly wouldn't consider it to be an instant classic.
All in all, I think that you're suffering from the same rose tinted glasses that I've talked about. It doesn't matter how good a currently airing series might happen to be. It'll never measure up to muh classics in your book, at least not until it's 2025 and it's been long enough for you to look back on it with nostalgia.
>>133083885
You'd do well to spend more waking moments brushing up on your math skills, because 30 anime per season is like 90 minutes of anime per day.
>>133083902
if you haven't noticed, anon, OP is probably baiting hard as soon as he got into the 2000's.
but FMA:B is legit a great show tho :^)
>>133083247
I was going to say I disagree but then I looked again and I agree. From 2005-2012 I save Aria, Kino no Tabi, Maria-sama, K-on, Hyouka, and maybe Chihayafuru and Tasogare Amnesia.
Everything else I loved, because I've loved another 20 titles or so, is one step behind those (like Toshokan Senso, one of my favourite anime, it's miles behind this 6-7).
Man, 2012 really saved the 2005-2012 period, for me.
I'm a bit torn on Tasogare Amnesia, I don't remember another romance written as tight as that, I thought the ending perfectly followed the rules and I think it's a masterpiece in the fanservice-y romance genre in the sense that this is how they should be done. It's definitely in my top10 of that period but I don't know if I would consider it worth mentioning when talking about the best ever.
>>133083932
You still haven't responded to my 2nd question
>>133083885
Not him, but only an hour a day is enough for 20 shows a week. I could easily handle 30 shows a season when I worked full time, while still having plenty of time to do other things too.
Not having time is really just an excuse for people who don't actually like anime.
>>133083963
>I found it really boring

Nonsense. Look what anime from this decade end up in people's 3x3 lists. It's always this "pretentious/boring shit".

>Look what anime from this decade end up in people's 3x3 lists.
3x3 threads are one of the worst things in this board, they are full of people who want to be told their taste is great and choose the same 15 shows when making charts.
>>133080302
It's a bad sign when I consider K: Return of kings to be a serious contender for anime of the year.
>>133084102
There's no reason for you to watch anime if you don't like it. But what the fuck are you doing on /a/ then? Go to /v/ and /lit/ and pester them about why you should play all these shitty games and read all these shitty books.
>>133083346
I learned a long time ago that you can't know for sure if you'll like something until you've watched it. I've liked things that /a/ hates, and been either bored or annoyed out of my mind by things that were getting a positive receptions on /a/.
The only qualities that I'll avoid as a rule unless something convinces me that it's different are works that appear to have a generic harem Gary Stu protagonist, anything with a cast that has too high of a male ratio (not because I dislike male casts, but because this is generally a sign of fujoshit), and anything with the usual art qualities of a shojo work. Anything else, and I'll watch it if it catches my interest.

>>133084326
As in, you replace your airing shows with their respective BD rips when the time comes. I usually set an script to search for them after the season ends but nowadays most shows I like don't even get BD releases, specially short anime, so that's unfortunate.
>>133084082
>>133084102
I actually like anime. I like looking at anime, I like listening to anime music and voices, I enjoy the scripts and the characters and all the cliches they might entail. I like it when I notice animation references, I like it when I recognise the seiyuu and remember their other roles, I like it when I can pick out distinctive traits of the production staff and I like it when I can see the love poured into a show from all sides. Even "bad" shows like Million Doll, Chaos Dragon or Mahou Sensou, to name some recent examples (all of which I watched the whole way through), can still be enjoyable at some level.
>>133084359
Kill yourself, /v/ermin.
>>133084270
>>133084382
That's fair. I guess I'm just mad because I can't find enjoyment in as shows as you guys
>>133084042
>not having time is really just an excuse for people who don't actually like anime
I remember when I had to work 70 hours a week all I would do is sleep and go to work. Fuck off with your catch all.
>>133084415
If you sleep 50 hours and work 70 hours there's still around 40 hours left for anime.
>>133084316
He can watch whatever he wants, but "people who watch more anime than me must be NEETs who like wasting their time on garbage" is stupid.
>>133084298
>store shows that you might fap to later
>store a single episode of shows with an OP or ED that you might want to watch later
Anything else is digital hoarding.
>>133084415
Assuming you sleep 8 hours a day and maybe allocate another 4 hours a day to do shit like cooking/eating/getting ready etc, you still have 14 hours a week which you could easily watch over 20 series in that time.

>>133084412
Stop avatarfagging
>>133084316
No, but when it gets to a point where you consider only 0-1 show per season worth watching, you might just as well give up on watching anime at all. Saves you more time by not having to keep up with the latest news and releases.
>>133084382
I think you are just a tasteless weeb. Good for you.
>>133084415
How much sleep do you need, anon?
>>133084316
It's mostly about actually being able to discover new things than only watching "the masterpieces", it's not a surprise that some people that think like this dislike anime but make exceptions for the few series they like.
>>133084488
but the TPP.
Usually I store anime I like and BD rips that uncensor things, so yeah I kinda agree.
>>133084480
Nobody said that

>Not archiving everything you watch for future reference and/or rewatching

I will never archive TV releases, I'll rather archive DmonHiro batches even.
>>133084501
>Not wanting to watch +20 shows each season is a slippery slope
>>133084532
They implied watching twenty-five shows must require you to be a NEET, and then when someone pointed out how little time that took, the response was "Why should I watch shitty shows and waste my time?"
>>133084582
Oh right, my bad.

I'm impressed that you could post bait of this poor caliber without succumbing to AIDS

This. The way global politics are going, they won't stop until they have complete control over the internet. What people take for granted now, namely being able to download pretty much anything you want whenever you want is not gonna be possible anymore.
>>133084546
I don't want a box of hard drives, though, which is what it would quickly turn into if I stored every single series.
>rewatching
It's extremely rare that I do this.Except as raws for Japanese listening practice, since shows that you've seen before are easier to follow. I can just grab those again, though.
The times sure have changed.
>>133084580
Yeah, pretty much. Liking anime is the top of the hill and not liking anime is the valley and you'll only be able to go down, never up.
Why does every season now have at least one meme anime? This wasn't a thing in previous decades.
>>133084630
A 4TB hard drive will store several hundred series at BD quality.
I have 286 series which takes about 1.6TB (although only about 1/3 are BD).
>>133084626
What we really need to do is force congress to pass a law that puts the breaks on their current tactics of-
>push law
>public outrage
>back off
>try same law under a different name, hope that the public is tired enough of fighting that it passes this time
>public outrage
>back off
>try same law under different name...
>repeat until apathy sets in
There needs to be a list of things banned from being placed in a bill, along with an implicit clause that enforces the spirit of the list so that they can't just loophole.
We can call it the "America said NO." law.

>>133084526
I don't really see why he should get out of /a/ though. And if you only want to watch a few shows each season while still finding new things you can always give other shows the three episode rule, or you know, browse /a/ and see if something seems worth a look
>>133084713
Are you 8 years old?
>>133082881
Probably he is one of those everything below 9.5 is shit.
>>133084713
Yeah, why weren't there more memes on 4chan in the 80s?
>>133084689
What
>>133084768
Or he just uses "great" less easily.
>>133084713
Because dank internet memes weren't a thing in previous decades, genius?
>>133084759
I don't agree with that either, but he should at least lurk. Browsing /a/ is not always the best idea to encourage yourself to watch airing anime, but sometimes it really does work.
>>133084769
>not shitposting on usenet

>>133080302
whatever will we do?
>>133084841
You bet
>>133084833
I bet there were even console wars at the time, the internet has always been a constant shitpost.
Who here almost exclusively watches old anime?
>>133084899
>>133084833
Well, we know OP was shitposting in the 90s, at least.
>>133084915
I almost exclusively watch new anime. Most old anime has animation so grating that it physically strains my eyes.
>>133080302
wow so in 10 years they had about 10 good anime
clearly modern anime is shit
>>133084915
I watch more recent anime than old anime, but mostly because I'm kinda running out of old anime that I'm interested to watch, and sometimes end up dropping long series that bore me. Can't really say what I enjoy more, both are entertaining.
Sage, for old time's sake.

This, there isn't a manlier thing than watching Kyoro brushing hair.
>>133080302
No OP.
We are living in the Golden Age of Idol Anime.
>>133080302
Thanks, I have a new copypasta ;-)
>>133085293
Maybe you are joking but I would watch 13 episodes of 24 minutes of cute girls having their hair brushed.
>>133080302
Nah, not really.
We might be in a dark age of anime backgrounds though.
Pic related, what the fuck were they thinking?!
The Psycho Pass movie is an extreme example but a lot of modern high budget productions just look like shit due to bad art direction and not giving a shit about the backgrounds looking good.
>>133085431
no anon, that is just what 3D in anime looks like even with budget
>>133085260
Saying that anime is worse off for digital techniques might have been a valid statement in the QUALITY era of the mid-00s, but I'd say that anime looks better than ever these days. It's basically what they were shooting for in the mid-00s, except even cleaner looking.
>character who's the focus of the scene stays completely still for a long time under circumstances that should really make them move; looks extremely awkward
>animation is so inconsistent that you rewind to make sure that you didn't miss something; character will be standing there talking in one frame and on the floor the next, with no transition
Taking the lack of animation this far very rarely happens these days. You get talking heads and speed lines, but those techniques are conserved enough that they're usually not too noticeable. Even conspicuous cases aren't as bad as the 80s. Unless you're Daishogun, of course.
>QUALITY
At an all time low.
The only downside to the current era, art-wise, is that Japan is still terrible at CGI, and 100% CGI series are slowly seeping into the industry, both of which are bad things in themselves.
>>133085481
Daishogun was great, you fucking animal. You just didn't understood it.
>>133080302
Even if I don't agree with many of your picks, I could pick others in their place. However so far the only notable thing from the 2010s was Yamato 2199 (which was incidentally a remake) so yeah, I believe we are in the dark ages.
But hey, we still have 4 years.
>>133083902
Those are also shit too, anon.
>>133085431
UBW had beautiful backgrounds.
Sakurako too and that airs this season
>>133085463
If the best you can do even with a budget looks like one of those pre-rendered backgrounds from Grim-Fandango, then just don't use 3D.
Any good art director should've been able to see it looks like shit.
>>133085627
Who are you arguing with?
>>133080302
Post 2010 is just lacking good anime movies.
That's all.
>>133084086
like inferno cop, didnt like ninja slayer
rly?
>>133085703
I don't watch many anime movies, but watching Patema Inverted last year with /a/ was fun.
>>133085731
Not him but Inferno cop is Ninja Slayer done right.
>>133085663
I'm not arguing, I just don't get what the art director was thinking. Who looked at it and thought "yeah, this looks good, let's go with this style of backgrounds".
>Moe won the war against normalfags
Feels good man
>>133085765
hollywood does this too. up until very recently (think avatar and transformer) movie cgi sucked a lot of doo doo. but they see that long term investment in the tech is beneficial for the industry.
>>133085738
I loved Patema Inverted.
Expelled from Paradise was really fun too.
>>133085855
Fuck, I've been meaning to watch Expelled from Paradise. I noticed it too late to watch it with /a/.
It's pretty rare for Underwater to release anything these days.
Yes. Like OP said the 80s had Gundam, Macross, LoGH, and Dragon ball. The 90s had Evangelion, Berserk, Macross Plus, Cowboy Bebop, Gunbuster, and Yu Yu Hakusho. 2000s had Samurai Champloo, Turn A Gundam, and Hunter X Hunter.
What happened the last 10 years? Why did we stop making this top quality anime?

I don't think I've ever seen somebody cherrypick so hard.

I know it's bait but damn, the list is broken from the get go, at least cherry pick better shit. If and thing there's MORE variety now than ever, though cyberpunk has died because it's 30-40 years later and we know the depicted tech simply doesn't work that way and it would be jarring otherwise.
