Why isn't there smart anime for smart people anymore? It's all moeshit and shounenshit nowadays.

Because we don't have enough fedoras to hand out to everyone.

>wanting more artsy philosophical anime is being a fedora
Well meme'd my friend

Nice memetic behaviour, my friend.

It never ends.

Target audience.
Read a book.

Yamakan tried to prevent this.
He was fired for his efforts.
>>134478939
Because anime was never "Smart" you mong, you were the stupid one.
But then guess what happened? you got smarter and finally saw that all "Smart" anime is nothing more than nips being pretentious, but you didn't get smart enough to realize you're mourning something that never was. so you're still a moron.

Is complaining about the intellectual decay of anime the current trend in bait
I'm seeing like 5-6 of these a day now
I just want more anime with good color palettes, nice layouts, and fun animation. Everything has this weird sheen to it lately, probably post-processing shit.
>>134480324
Do you have an example or two that meets your criteria?
>>134478939
Because moeshit IS for intellectuals. You're just too stupid to realize it.
>>134480031
>Says moe is killing the industry
>Swears he'll save anime
>Proceeds to make Lucky Star and Wake Up Girls
>>134480324
If I tell you I know an anime with great color palette, nice layouts, and awesome animation, will you believe me?
>>134480324
Concrete Revolutio?
>>134478939
Because it doesn't sell enough and the industry doesn't take risks anymore. That's all there is to it.

But YKA was earlier this year

"Moeshit" is almost dead though, there are a whole lot more of wanna-be-smart anime around, the only problem is that the usual writer for anime can't write a complicated plot for shit.
Read a good book, and you'll get your smart dose.

There's an anime just for you this season called Subete ga F ni Naru ;)
>>134478939
>smart anime for smart people
what makes you think smart people want to watch smart anime
or smart animes are targeted towards smart people
They use anime as advertisement and/or produce it as long as it has enough viewers

I enjoy moe and shounen dude. I'm just saying it would be good to have more anime like Lain, Utena or Evangelion, they at least try something different.
>>134480878
Watch more anime and lurk more.
>>134480878
>like Lain, Utena or Evangelion
it's always the exact same three examples
all these threads are being made by the same guy aren't they
>>134480397
Space Dandy and Uchouten Kazoku are some recent-ish stuff that fits. Haikyuu's decent too, but the colors aren't outstanding.I've barely watched anything that's come out this year, honestly. Been following manga and my backlog more.
>>134480585
KnK, yeah? I don't always care for Kyoani's stuff, but you can't deny they have good animation and layouts.
>>134480878
Why don't you read manga or watch actual film?
Anime is primarily for entertainment and escapism, and it's too expensive to take risks.
>>134480585
But shit characters, trainwreck story and no substance.
>>134481040
They're all shitposting, and shitposters these days put no effort into it.
>>134480878
If you want something that is deep and insightful then read a fucking book you stupid nigger. Remember, start with the Greeks.
>>134480878
We had an Ikuhara show and an NGE derivative this year, what are you even asking for?

If you want to feel smart go and read a fucking book.
