No, and I prefer it that way. The rest of the world can frankly fuck off.
>>
well it is

just not on /a/

Wow. That's a great attitude to have. You could have become someone, but by forsaking so many people, you are doomed to a life of misery and failure.
>>
Probably some of it.

This. Video games were ruined by people who wanted it to become "art"
>>

>You could have become someone

Like 99% of people who did not "forsake" others?

Did YOU become someone with that attitude?
>>
>>135394226

I own Shopko.

>having the thing you like accepted as art can make you into something
A pretentious asslicker? No thanks
>by forsaking so many people, you are doomed to a life of misery and failure
What if I told you it was possible to enjoy something as a hobby while also having a normal life?
>>
>>135393870
No because it's shit.

Manga on the other hand is, as it should be.
>>
"art" is the most overrated shit ever
>>
No as even the so-called "great" series do not so much as graze the aesthetic and philosophical heights of cinema and literature. It's a trash genre made for East Asian teenagers and white manchildren with short attention spans.
>>
>>135393870
Everything is art. So yes, anime is art too.
So is me trying to badly sing anime openings.

Comparing Eva to Shawshank is like comparing a turd to a bar of gold.

If it's by Ghibli, yes. The rest, no.

If everything is art then nothing is. We live in a post-art world.

>>135394351
Yes, and I own Apple.

>>135393870
Anybody who actually takes art seriously considers anime to be art. It's a definatory term, not a normative one. Stupid question.
>>
>>135393870
The anime we watch? No.
The classy anime like those of Miyazaki are.
>>
Yes, it's art. All of it is.

Art doesn't mean something is good, however. There's good art and bad art.

Though that's a whole different argument
>>
>>135394942
Everything is potentially art but not everything is art, it's an important distinction you have to understand lest you end up like >>135395180 this guy.
>>
>>135393870
Who defines what is valid?
>>
>>135393870
I hope not, the less normies trying to join in the better.
is senran kagura anime accepted here or is it only /v/ that's butthurt over the games?
>>
Before we answer that, let's try and solve a tougher question:
What is art?
>>
>>135394049
>>135394049
Who are you or anyone to decide what constitutes as a life of "misery and failure"? How about you fuck off with your retarded normalfag logic.
>>
>>135398966
Baby don't hurt me

>>135393870
Art means nothing these days. I've seen so-called "modern art" that are literally some candy wrappers left on a floor and surrounded by barbed wire, or string tangled around a staircase. It's a load of bullshit and the critics, in my opinion, are participating in a game of bullshit: "How to assign deeper meaning to literally nothing."
>>
>>135399191
The problem is that art on itself is a shitty word and was initially created to separate what certain groups make from what the folk makes.
>>
>>135398966
>I have never taken a formal art class or read any texts on art

Anime is kitsch by the way.

evangelion is one of the most critically acclaimed pieces of art, most media that people consider as art can't even compare

Why is /a/ full of teenagers? Is it because they're all still on winter break?

anime became mainstream when they showed spirited away during primetime on channel one in russia

This image needs a "shouganai" edit. As well as other typical japanese perceptions.

I agree, something like craftmanship shows human effort in creating something beautiful much better than 'art' which in the end is entirely defined by trying to send a message.
