First FLCL and now LWA. America really is saving anime.
fuck anime
Japan's capacity for animating has recently exceeded the buying power of the Japanese anime fans.
The American-funded anime will not replace Japanese anime (which is purpose-bound as multi-media franchises and advertisements, but it will create a 4th anime sphere.

If you think the new FLCL is going to be good then I have a house in the afterlife to sell you.
>>143733297
Does that mean we'll be watching Netflix rips instead of Horriblesubs?
Americans also saved Voltron
>>143734155
I was fucking shocked that it was actually a little good. I hope they do more dumb shit like that in the future.

>>143734093
You're working under the assumption that those people actually have standards. Back when it was just rumours, those people didn't even care about finding out the staff working on it, just the FLCL name is enough for them.
>>143733297
I'm glad my favourite animes aren't made by filthy westboos
>>143733856
Oh shit, I vaguely remember that during the AMA shilling session, they said something about how someone was actually showing interest in funding them for it to be series or something. Back then there were anons speculating that someone is Netflix and with the way things are now, that is very likely.
What are the odds that they're waiting to see how people are responding to the KS funded OVA and then going for a full series from there?
>>143733297
>burgermunchers in charge of chinese cartoons
This can't end good.
>>143733297

>>143734253
>animes
Opinions of ignorant people don't matter.
can't see FLCL not being shit
LWA might do good though
>>143734122
It means we'll be waiting till the series is over for subs unless some fansubber saves the day.
>>143734155
Someone explain to me America's Voltron obsession. There have been like 5 of them now including the original anime. I just don't understand
>>143734372
>LWA wasn't that good
FALSE
>and turning it into a series is bound to ruin it.
I'm worried about that too, but there's obviously some interesting back story with what sensei was doing behind the scenes while putting on her shows.
>>143734442
Netflix has subs, doesn't it?? My Internet is to slow to even think about streaming, so I've never used it, but I thought Netflix had subbed anime. Isn't all the anime on Netflix available with subs?
>>143733355
I'd fuck anime if I knew how, trust me
>>143733297
>unnecessary sequels and westaboo shit
t-thanks america
>>143734451
>FALSE
Truths. It was mediocre in story with above average animation, but it was a movie anyway.
>>143734447
The typical american doesn't know that the nips have been making over 100+ for similar type of shows (some of which are better). Since voltron is all they know, it's what they keep hanging on to.
>>143734469
Netflix didn't put up Kuromukuro worldwide until the season was finished whereas Japan got it from the get-go. Probably something in the contract from tv stations airing anime afraid for losing a portion of their audience to the service.
>>143734372
so long as it has the premise and Sacy /a/ will call it AOTY
>It looks like a Western cartoon but it's actually anime!
>Oh my god, that's so -anime-!
Any 2007 and prior oldfags here? Isn't this shit stupid as fuck?
>>143734447
The toys were some of the coolest in the 80's and my generation has a huge nostalgia boner for it. All of the middle series were obviously made by creatives who wanted to remake their childhood or by executives who thought they could respark it's popularity, but the new series is actually not bad.
Voltron was SUPER popular when I was a kid. Everyone knew Voltron. It aired the same year as Transformers and rode behind it in popularity. Also the original metal lion toys were fucking great.
>>143734469
Yes, there are subs.
>>143734556
It looks like anime.
>America is funding anime
>not cartoons

/co/ is truly suffering.
>>143733297
America ruins everything it touches.
>>143734544
Oh, who cares then. I normally watch shit after it's finished anyway unless the shitstorm on /a/ looks like fun.
>>143734587
You have HollyJews making capeshit for you all year round
>>143734556
>>143734583
It totally looks like anime. Also anyone who thinks 2007 is oldfag is - actually wait. Nevermind. I guess 2007 is long enough now.
That's depressing.
>>143734543
Has Japan gotten a hold of the new one yet?
>>143734587
>American animated movies ever being 2D again
Give it up, anon.
>>143734556
I don't know why you're bringing pre07fags into this.
Sure, I have been here for at least 11 years but this is no more stupid than every fucking thing else f/a/gs claim to have a majority opinion on.
America, fund Haruhi s3.
Make anime great again.
>>143734745
>>143734619
It's obvious that he joined /a/ at around that time.
>>143734613
The only good capeshit movies were Watchmen and Darkerman. Everything else was either Decent or completely shit.
If FLCL turns out shit then I won't trust an American company backing an existing franchise again. Just pump that money into a original anime by some creative mind instead of doing the very American thing of just making sequels
>>143734811
Yeah, one of the worst things about people who claim themselves as oldfags is generally that they try to be super nostalgic, as though the past were golden times.
4chan, and all its boards, have always been shit with the odd gem floating in them.
>>143734922
>Watchmen
>Good
I laugh in your general direction. It missed the entire point of the story.
>>143735039
Different years are better for different shit.
2008ish was the best time to talk about manga, before the midnight manga threads go shit on by anti-source faggots and we moved into the much shittier OPT, 3x3 manga editions, and random genre threads.
Prior to 2007 /a/ had a better sense of humor. No, that's not right, it was more open about it's horrible sense of humor, and we shit on people less for be goobers and more for not knowing enough about anime.
Modern /a/ is great for talking about the actual production of anime. We have a ton of people who care a lot about the staff, voice talent, and behind the scenes doings on /a/ right now.
>>143733297
>America really is saving anime.
/a/ isn't america, fuck you. FLCL getting a sequel is also bad and nothing more than taking a giant shit on the original work.
>>143735171
>FLCL getting a sequel
I dunno. If it was the original staff, and a completely different set of characters it might not be ~that~ bad.
>>143734483
Your welcome nips and thank you for the anime
>>143735361
No, it'll still be bad. There is no need for a sequel and there is nothing left to tell for a sequel. It's nothing more than a shitty cashgrab replying on retard nostalgiafags who don't understand what makes something good and I am yet to see anything like this before manage to be good and not shit all over what made the series good. One of the reasons FLCL was good was because it was that small self-contained story. I would never ask for a sequel of it just as you would never ask for a sequel for like, I don't know, Cowboy bebop.
>>143734556
2007 isn't old anon, the fuck you are smoking

>>143733297
>No season 2 of Outlaw Star
America isn't doing shit to save anime.
>>143734782
I don't Haruhi is "normie" enough to get funded by the west. If anything it'd be something like Cowboy Bebop S2 or Death Note S2
>>143734587
There is no money in making cartoons anymore. Anime on the other hand can be made on slave wages.
>>143736020
>What is Firefly
>>143734591
>America creates everything it touches into midas gold
Fixed
>>143736020
I hated Outlaw Star solely because of this cliche episode:
>crush on a girl you don't know is one of the bad guys, then befriend her
>girl dies fighting your team and you have no idea it was her
>wonder why she hasn't shown up at your special meeting place
I fucking loathe this trope.
>>143736228
Literally rebbit the show was cancelled long ago amigo.
>>143736222
There was never money in cartoons as a standalone thing. It has and always will be about moving merchandise. The only difference between now and 20-30 years ago is nobody buys toys anymore.

Soon we will have more crowdfunding for heavy western influenced series like PSG, little witch academia, FLCL, Cowboy bebop etc

>>143735602
I dunno. In the same vein, I wouldn't mind more stories in the Cowboy Bebop setting.
>>143736621
>wanting constant sequels
>>143736621
But these projects are financed by the japanese division of netflix. Kuromukuro didn't even get released on their worldwide service until after the final episode aired.

You can peddle other shit. Well, not this, can't do that in a Christian country anymore.
>>143736674

Soon it will be the norm.
>murrikan nostalgiafags trying to get every 'classic' they got to watch back in the day ruined with a sequel
Oh boy here we go.
>>143736648
Yes, that is normally referred to as a 'spin-off'. These normally have nothing to do with the original story and are their own thing in the same universe. A good portion of the time these are also shit and are just ridding on the brand name. A spin-off still has a potential to be good because its meant to be something in the same universe, not something apart of the main story. However, a sequel isn't a spin-off. We aren't getting small self-contained FLCL spin-offs, we are getting FLCL s2 and s3, aka sequels.
>>143736206
Tacitly admitting that you're new as shit
What're yall niggas complaining about exactly?
A full season of LWA sounds fantastic. And so does a FLCL sequel. I have no doubt that I'm going to enjoy them both.
>>143736730
Why don't you just go watch normal western tv? You will get the exact same thing you want from anime. As in, LITERALLY getting that. Unless you can say you love most things on western tv, you're retarded to think this is in anyway positive for anime.
>>143736733
>every 'classic' they got to watch
What? You mean literally the same dozen shows Toonamibabbies and the like got to see? The same people who think Cowboy Bebop is somehow the be all end all of anime.
I'd rather take another Big O more than anything else desu.
>>143736730

America shills brand recognition even harder then Japan. Good luck.
>>143736752
If you wanted to argue semantics then you should have started at
>I dunno. If it was the original staff, and a completely different set of characters it might not be ~that~ bad.
As far as I'm concerned it's only a spin-off it it has a different name.
>>143736822
I want it from anime.
>>143736843
The American funded Big-O was terrible.
>>143736822
I know I prefer animated programming because I dislike looking at real people and I enjoy art. I don't consider acting to be much of an art.
>>143736948
Yes but at least I don't think fondly of that show. Much better than probably tarnishing any good memories I had of FLCL and all the other inevitable sequel revival garbage.
>>143736709
The only other thing they could hock is video games and most don't make the transition well since nobody's gonna try and make a show out of anything with even slightly objectionable content unless they're French.
>>143733297
I fucking swear you burgers if the new FLCL seasons are bad.

>>143736730
2 of those are from the last 5 years. Bebop wasn't the first, and won't be the last, episodic anime. Bebop is one of those shows that people think give him high ground in taste when really just like all episodic anime its 60% trash
>>143737082

>>143737132
I can't think of that many bad Bebop episodes. I think people just like to shit on it because it's popular with dubfags, and dubfags are terrible.
anyone else here think FLCL is OK at best?
>>143737171
Cool, can I just watch that alone without watching anything else?
>>143737188
It's a little better then okay. It did a lot well, a LOT. It's not the best thing ever, and I wouldn't say it's even in my top ten, but if I had only watched anime that was on English language television I would probably have a much much higher opinion of it.
>>143737132
> muh plot
shut it retard episodic anime is the best
Netflix anime threads are my favorite threads on /a/ mostly because /a/ goes from a fairly well-adjusted board(inasmuch as the stuff we regularly masturbate to counts as well-adjusted) into paranoid and hostile.
Triiger shit is always cancer of the season
>>143737188
It's above average but not really something to clamor over.
>>143737219
Some characters shared between but no major plot threads.
>>143737185
People like to shit on it because people like to treat it as one of the greatest things ever made. Normally by people new to the medium.
>>143737404
Bebop, however, IS in my top ten. It has almost no bad episodes, almost not flaws, and Megumi Hayashibara.
>>143737404
it is one of the grwatest things ever made.

No, this is terrible. You don't want anime to pander other people, that destroys the point of anime.
The last thing we need is for them to control things so they can put racial acceptance propaganda and the such, cute anime wouldn't even be cute with them because they would make sure no dumb or wife material girl is in it. They can leave that for their cartoons.
>>143737577

>>143737667

Aside from the usual, there is always some series that tries to do something different, be them good or bad. You probably don't even see them.

Is there even a way to rip those in a somewhat decent quality?
All Netflix rips I've seen so far had problems and randomly dropped form 1080p to 720p and lower.

Literally a toonamibabby. Anime makes mad dosh now than it ever was.

There is literally nothing wrong with pandering to the west.
If you weren't all underage shitters and/or americans, you'd know that anime were at their best when they used to go for the broadest audience, and often were more beloved here than in Japan.
>>143739077
This. America can't into original works anymore, they'll just slap on anything with a following then run it to the ground or remake it into shit. Hope retards enjoy ScarJo on every new anime live adaptation.
>>143739152
It's not pandering to the west when it's also well known in Japan.
>>143738915

It also helps that the west doesn't see anime as otakubait, and they throwLIBERALamounts of money at things they think would sell well.
>>143739247
I meant the new Netflix Voltron
>>143739352
And the 80s, Americans had little to no exposure to anime aside from the rental store. Only ones who could've built an audience were the South Americans, French and SEAmonkeys TV. So why should they pander to the West?
Fuck Netflix. They only know how to finance spinoffs, sequels, and thinly veiled ersatz versions of famous TV series. They're gonna fuck FLCL season 2 and Little Witch Academia up so hard because they don't actually understand WHY people like that kind of stuff. They're pure evil, just like Dubya and The Walt Disney Corporation.
>>143739549
Is Gainax even doing the FLCL S2?
>>143733355
Ladies and gentlemen: /a/

>>143739549
>They're gonna fuck ... Little Witch Academia up so hard because they don't actually understand WHY people like that kind of stuff.
They have literally nothing to do with the production of LWA TV. It's being made at Trigger by the exact same people that made the films, then palmed off to Netflix once it's finished so it can get a quick global release.
>>143739688
Producers are more powerful than you think they are.
>>143733405

>>143739647

Nah, we both know america is too accustomed with streaming shit and nothing can change it. If anything it'll be the same with creators doing shit on their own country and America gets the leftovers and sell it at a bigger paywall
>>143739511
The whole europe was anime central, not just France.
I was just pointing out how the whole "hurr normalfag" drama is childish and ignorant.
>>143733297
How long until they finance sequels to series that would actually benefit from it in some way? Or is it because it's America that's doing this that it has to be unnecessary sequels?
>>143739590
It's time to forget Gainax and keep it in the past, anon. No tears, only tomatos now.
>>143739590
Why would they?
Nobody from the old days is at Gainax anymore.
Why is everyone acting as if America is the only country that has companies that like cashgrabs?
We all realize Eva exist right?
>>143733297
Well at least this means that the series will be well funded and probably successfull, meaning good animation and Trigger not going bankrupt.
I was worried, knowing the japanese audience.
>>143739152
I seriously hope you are not calling WMT "pandering."
>>143736674
>wanting constant sequels
I'll take fucking sequels instead of shitty reboots.

I saw this coming when the influx of wannabe otakus started being more public about it on more public places like YouTube and other social media. I want off this ride, normalfags ruin everything and giving more exposure to anime in the west means more SJWs will start putting their assholes where they don't belong.
>30 minute episodes
>Yoshinari as director
It's almost a dream. But holy shit they're going to suffer so much. Yoshinari is a perfectionist, he and the entire studio are probably going to work nonstop, barely sleeping for a very long while. Pretty sure they've been at this point for months, but it's only going to get worse the more closer they'll get to release date.
Anyway, I'm fucking excited.
I don't know what to think about the new FLCL.
Pros: new characters and stories instead of a remake like it seemed at the beginning, Pillows and Sadamoto are on board, the setting and premise still have a lot of potential.
Cons: Tsurumaki and Enokido (granted he can't write for shit anymore) aren't on board, and neither are Yoshinari, Imaishi and the whole old Gainax crew. And it's IG, who knows if they have any idea of what they're doing.
Anyway, even if it turns out terrible it won't erase the old series, so you should all stop bitching.

>SJW's will destroy the industry
You are vastly overestimating their influence. The only reason they get the voice they do in the U.S. is because they can infiltrate those American based industries, especially the Video games industry. What the hell can they do here? They have no traction in Japan, the people who consume anime don't care for their opinion. Where does their influence have any input?

Perhaps, but it's still a sequel. They still have the original staff and focus on the original characters. Long as it stays true to the sequel it will be good enough.
>>143740676
>even if it turns out terrible it won't erase the old series
It will erase its legacy. People will be jumping on the FLCL bandwagon for the first time, ruining it forever. It's like comparing someone who's watched Eva 10-15 years ago, to someone who's only heard of it now - two completely different demographics despite consuming the same media. Except with FLCL it's even worst, since it's already had that second phase airing on Toonami.

Funny thing the creator is still working with D&D on the series.
>>143741275
>basement dweller
Do you even know where you are?
>>143741155
Femism is the last of GoT prlblems.
Not that it was even good to begin with anyway.

>saving anime means westernizing it
Good bait, not just because it builds upon a foundation of bait developed for /a/.
>>143741155
Have you seen Dorne in GoT? It was always going to happen like that.
>Costa Rica
Third world's gonna third world man. I fail to see the connection to western anime demand.
>>143741358
of course it has been shitty for a long time but at least it was acceptable, now it is just pathetic pandering
>>143741392
anime is hugely main stream in latin america, more so than the USA
>>143741474
>Latin American
>part of the 'Western' demand
Woah there. What makes Western demand actually important is that we have money. I'm certain that it's socially acceptable in Latin America, but Japan will never cater to their tastes because no money.
>>143741548
this is why saint seya doesn't get new series every now and then right
oh... wait
>>143741548
latin america are consumers of western media, there is pretty much no other type of media other than anime that latin america consumes
If there was one country which I would not want to see involved in anime, it's America.
>>143741832
This. Especially the toonamibabies and self-hating weebs. They don't even buy the media their consuming
>>143738487
>Girl Pidge
geniuses, I swear
>>143741832
To be fair, which country could replace America? It's the place with the money. I'd prefer a more liberal country when it comes to animation, like Europe to be that place, but there isn't the demand.
>>143733297
People think this is a good thing?
>>143742872
Nope, America doesn't have the money because they don't even wanna buy it. The money comes from the EU, SEA, and HUElands especially HUEland
>>143743346
Yes.
>>143743650
Why?
>>143743694
Japan is creatively bankrupt because otaku only buy shit.
>>143743873
Sequels will save anime this is a must opportunity the older shows to come back
>>143741832
America is doing a favor for you son
You might thank us now but you might thank us later

>Yoh Yoshinari directing 30-minute LWA TV series
>FLCL returns with the Pillows, Sadamoto designs, Psyho-Pass S1 and Movie director
Anime will be saved. Getting tired of all these self-insert reboot LN adaptations.Now if only Berserk received a good adaptation, it would be perfect
>>143743694
More comfy anime, less waifu of the season/otaku self-insert anime.
I'd much rather have more anime like Amaama to Inazuma and Orange-like shows than Re:Zero and Hundred rehashed LN shows.
>>143745373
But the west fucking love Re:Zero and self-insert anime too you know.
>>143745265
Netflix doesn't care that much about Berserk. They've had the first Golden Age movie for ages, and still haven't bothered to get the other two. Regardless of quality, it must not be getting that many views for them.
I don't know what other Western company would be willing to fund it.
>>143745265
> Psyho-Pass S1 and Movie director
I mean he's not terrible, but he's not Tsurumaki. Fuck Anno and fuck Rebuild for wasting his talent for 15 years.
And I'm more concerned about the writing honestly.
>>143735775
at least their shorts are good

Americans are a living meme and most of the Internet is retarded and autistic anyway so I guess you're right
>>143740197
LWA isn't even that popular in japan
>>143733297
Further proof that manga is the superior medium, you shitty anime-only fags.
>>143738487
If you would have told me as a kid, that in 2016 we would both NOT have flying cars, but also that there would be a sexy voltron, I would not have believed you.

If you want to watch the series, the whole thing is on Youtube here.

Voltron?

>There is no need for a sequel and there is nothing left to tell for a sequel.
Read the bottom tweet
>>143745373
But you'll get those chuuni as fuck edgy shit instead of comfy, baka. America doesn't appreciate comfy, they appreciate edgy garbage like GoT, Breaking Bad, and WD. They are full ADHD.
>>143747041
This. There's so much more variety in manga.
>>143733297
>Netflix bought the streaming rights in the west
>This somehow means they're funding it and it could only happen because of them
Literally nowhere does it say anything to that effect. Netflix just picked up a license. They've been doing this for a long time.
If Netflix didn't pick up LWA, CR or Funi would have.
The fact that there's so many threads misunderstanding this and making a big deal out of it just goes to show how infested with normalfags we've become.
>>143747010
That's what I meant.
If they had to count on the japanese BD sales alone they would have been fucked.
It's funny, 5 years ago we were hailing anime as dead in America, now this happens.
>>143747041
Can't argue with that.
But of course /a/ will keep pretending that pandering to an autistic niche is better, even when manga do much better selling to everyone.
>>143748431
>The fact that there's so many threads misunderstanding this and making a big deal out of it just goes to show how infested with normalfags we've become.
Most of them are /a/nons who get paranoid over any sort of western influence in the anime industry.
so Haruhi season 3 / Nichijou season 2 when
>>143747731
>Tsurumaki on board
WAIT WHAT THE FUCK?
But in what capacity?
>>143748746
>Haruhi
Hopefully never.
It was a fun ride, but lets be serious, that's one of the worst things that ever happened to anime.
>>143748762
Supervisor, IIRC.
>>143748431
This.
>>143748677
That's because they're not part of market. Every other market has at least one anime dedicated TV channel or access or buys the merch. It's just fox and the grapes from Toonamibabbies
>>143747731
>felt there was more to explore
Which is why they did fuck all for 15 years, right? Let's be honest, the only thing they felt was more was money to be made
FLCL revival is going to be shit, but I'm glad Netflix is throwing money at a LWA series so we don't end up with another shittily animated short series from Trigger.
>>143748858
Would've been better having him as director, but that gives me some more hope in this project.
Now if only they could partner up with Trigger to have Yoshinari, Imaishi and Sushio animate some scenes...
>>143749066
That would be what it would take for me to have hope, basically.
>>143749005
Netflix only paid for the license to broadcast it, dingus. Basically the same thing Crunchyroll and Funimation do.
Independent of having money or not for good animation, Trigger already confirmed it will be a standard 25mins. series.
>>143733297
>both are fucking garbage and only liked by ironic normalfags
Yeah, they're really saving it
This kills the anime.
>>143748431
>The fact that there's so many threads misunderstanding this and making a big deal out of it just goes to show how infested with normalfags we've become.
You don't know the half of it
I hope the threads we get once LWA starts airing won't be as bad as they're now.
>>143748921
>Which is why they did fuck all for 15 years, right?
Nobody was willing to fund them? I don't see why any anime producer nowadays would have interest in greenlighting a sequel to an old obscure OVA. The Toonami guys funded Big OG S2, created IGPX (another IG original series is on the way), and simulcasted Space Dandy. They probably thought Toonami were the right guys to make it happen.
Also. It appears Pillows will be doing the soundtrack again.

This team at recent Anime expo said they wanted to do Sword of the stranger sequel but can't because no funding. HOW THE FUCK DOES CEO OF BONES NOT GET PROPER FUNDING FOR SWORD OF THE STRANGER SEQUEL? WTF IS WRONG WITH JAPAN AND ANIME INDUSTRY? We need more people like Maruyama to save the Anime industry.
>>143749278
>ironic normalfags
What does that even mean?
>>143749507
>I'm such a weeaboo lol baka desu senpai who H Y P E for FLCL here???
ie the majority of Western anime "fans", just normalfags who want to feel special for latching onto anime subculture. Cancerous retards.
What the fuck has europe done for anime lately?
Not only has America nuked Japan which created moe as a genre, but they also strongly influenced the style with Disney and right now American companies are stepping up to save the industry.
Seriously is europe nothing but a parasite contributing nothing?
Glad I'm not part of the EU anymore.
FLCL's revival sadly won't have Gainax's involvement
>>143749452
>This team at recent Anime expo said they wanted to do Sword of the stranger sequel but can't because no funding.
That's not what they fucking said. He said that's what they'd make if they made bunch of money.
>>143749568
Europe has done more for anime than anyone else. Even lately.
>>143749549
I really doubt that, you're just creating a reason to hate popular stuff.
>>143749568
Rule Britannia!
>>143748678
What? No, it's the exact opposite. Manga is good because there's much more stuff for various tiny niches, since you don't have to sink a million dollars just to make a manga, so marginal stuff is more viable. The manga selling a ton to everyone is generally okay at best, and that stuff tends to get anime adaptations, anyway.
>>143749645
They should be able to make that regardless.
>>143749687
If you don't see these faggots all over /a/, /v/, ANN, and pretty much anywhere anime is discussed by English speakers, you're more than likely one of them.
>>143749568
Other than not leech off and have syndication for anime on TV, nothing. I mean it's not like Americans just torrent and not buy anything then bitch about it's market that they do not pay for, riiiight?
