Steven Universe.

Best cartoon that's still actively happening, probably a tie between Steven Universe and The Loud House.

It was Gravity Falls and Wander Over Yonder but both got cancelled.

Now it's probably Amazing World of Gumball (which is ending soon as well) and all that will be left is Steven Universe.

SU isnt always good, but when its good its great. And when its bad its super boring.

Watch Osomatsu-san instead.

Modern as in still airing? For me it's either Clarence or Harvey Beaks because they're both pretty funny and very few of the characters in these shows will make you want to pull your hair out. If you want to watch something good then you should probably just watch anime.

I really wish I could say Adventure Time but it's so all over the place I can't do it.
It deserves some respect though, for being a sort of zombie show now it's still doing lots of crazy stuff.

So it's either Steven Universe or Gravity Falls (but that's over I guess). Haven't seen WoY and I guess it's a lot better than I originally gave it credit for.
>>
>>82586993

You're gonna trigger some people with that statement. I agree though, it's genius.

Rick and Morty is a good contender and I think more people would probably agree with that, but for me it's still good old Steven Universe.

Steven, unlike most young protagonists, actually learns from his mistakes and matures as the show progresses. You can actually see him getting better from episode to episode.

How do you even figure they're better? Do you think Japanese people are just better story tellers? Do you think it's because eastern animators are more able to appeal to older audiences? Or is it cartoons tend to be episodic and reset at the end of every episode?

There are cartoons now-a-days that shatter that old mold like Steven Universe and Gravity Falls, and some that don't completely demolish the mold but still keep a good overarching plot going like Rick and Morty and Star vs. The Forces of Evil.

There's plenty of good cartoons to check out that might change your mind if you haven't seen them already.
>>
>>82586935
Adventure Time.

Regardless of /co/'s hateboner for it which has been there since the beginning despite what retards say its consistently the most evolving series airing nowadays. Gumball is incredibly stagnant and all its humor is pretty predictable and the less said about SU the better, its an okay show hyped up to oblivion. At least nobody here has mentioned Star Vs.

It was good but it broke no molds whatsoever. Mystery Inc. was a better Gravity Falls then Gravity Falls.

Adventure Time pretty much changed the main way people even see the genre at the moment, and tons of artstyles from new shows are greenlit that mimic its style/sense of humor.
Steven Universe is the first show in god knows how long to actually keep a serial story from the start with lots of foreshadowing/clues for the older kids and NOT shit all over it.
Wonder over Yonder and Gumball are both legitimately really funny for everyone, but have some hit and miss moments.
It's up to preference.

Gravity Falls came out a year before SU along with Korra and before that was Mystery Incorporated and before that Young Justice

SU hasn't ended like those ones. Who knows what disappointments the future holds in store.

Yes, just look at Uncle grandpa and pickle and peanut.
>>
>>82588701
I can't vouch for Mystery Inc., but Gravity Falls completely shit the bed and Korra they literally made up as the seasons went along.
Young Justice probably did it right, but it got cancelled too early for it to hit any climaxes.
They were all good at being serial though, SU is just trumping them at the moment since its outliving some of them with better (comparatively) character development unless it manages to have a poor climax.
>>
>>82588855
>SU hasn't ended like those ones.
So? Korra fucked up way before the end. And Gravity Falls was slowly falling apart throughout season 2. Steven Universe hasn't had the same thing happen.

shit is way too different to pick one and say it's the "best". For example, SU and WoY do different things and comparing them is impossible because they're not similar enough.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Wander Over Yonder is the magnum opus of one of the few living legends of western animation. It is far and away the best cartoon on the air today and one of the finest contemporary examples of animation as an art form outside of Cartoon Saloon. It's basically impossible to speak to highly of it.

I haven't watched much of WoY, just a few episodes. The art-style is nice and there is solid animation. However, the Christmas episode epitomizes what was wrong with WoY. The Hater perspective was enticing and entertaining. Seeing a villain bothered and trying to squash a hero that is merely spreading Holiday cheer was a fun change of pace to that story. The problem is the Wander side of the story. It was boring and cliche. There wasn't new ground to tread like Hater's perspective provided, so you just get a run of the mill episode.
If what you say is true that LD creates more opportunities for Hater-centric episodes, then she probably did make the show better. But honestly, she only drew people in for being a waifu first and whatever good happened was just extra.

The most interesting characters are Hater and Peepers, for sure. I always enjoyed the episodes with them over the episodes without them. Even though I like the first season, the second season was where the show truly flourished because more depth was put into Hater.

I want to like Dominator but really, she's a flat character, totally OP and only there to progress Hater. Not trying to be a dick but anyone who acts like she is an amazing character truly sounds like waifufags.

Well duh, she's the antagonist, we only see brief moments of her day to day life

I'm super hyped for the next episode, we'll hopefully get to see some more casual Dominator and get some character development for her

SU has worse overall character design than Wander, and it doesn't even come close in animation.

I don't deny that SU is a pretty good show, but it really suffers animation-wise compared to other shows.

True, most of it is TERRIBLE shonen stuff. you wouldn't know that by looking at /a/ though, so you can hardly blame the guy.

No, it isn't.

A lot of people really struggle with the idea that anime cannot be reduced to just one thing.
>>
>>82594711
Dude fucking look at the listings for the next season, it's literally 40% garbage shonen, 40% moe, and like five shows that aren't being churned out for the sake of filling dead air.

Shounen is not a genre, and genres are not intrinsically bad anyway. It's a manga demographic. When a manga runs in Shounen Jump, it's a shounen manga. Doesn't matter what the story's genre is and what it's about. Case in point, Amanchu is a shounen manga:
>Hikari Kohinata is a cheerful 15 year-old girl who lives near the ocean and she spends much of her time diving as a result. On her first day of high school, she meets a teacher who also likes scuba diving. There's also a 16 year-old classmate, Futaba Ooki, who gets dragged along in Hikari's maelstrom as soon as they meet at school.
So is Mononokean:
>Ashiya has spent the first seven days of high school stuck in the infirmary because of a "mononoke" attaching itself to him. He ends up asking the owner of a small tearoom - Mononokean - for help.
A series of mysterious stories involving the very morose owner of Mononokean, who guides mononoke to pass on to the next world.
"Moe," as 99,99% of people use it, doesn't mean anything.

And why are you judging shows before you've even seen them?
>>
>>82586993
Yep. Also anyone who calls SJW nonsense either hates women and gay people or hasn't actually watched the show
>>
>>82595015
>And why are you judging shows before you've even seen them?

By all means watch everything people have created for the last 70 years of animation and be the expert but for the rest of us the synopsis and cover art are enough.
>>
>>82595315
I hate assholes. Women and gay people can be assholes and they shouldn't get special treatment over being called out for it.
>>
>>82595503
I am too but this show doesn't do that.
>>
>>82594757
99.9% of modern anime is garbage, same with cartoons
>>
>>82595340
>for the rest of us the synopsis and cover art are enough
Then you end up watching nothing, and just complain all day every day that there's nothing worth watching and anime is shit and why can't Watanabe just remake Cowboy Bebop every season for eternity.

You create these imaginary categories like "shounen" and "moe" and if anything bears even the most remote, superficial resemblance to them you declare it shit and won't even try it. This is how we end up with someone writing to ANN's Answer Man about all the panty shots in Girls und Panzer, a show that has no panty shots. And how we end up with people declaring that Euphonium, a drama series, is a carbon copy of K-On.
>>
>>82595645
I wasn't talking about the show, just in general. Defending women and gays just because they are what they are IS SJW bullshit.

I would have defended Alan Turing, I won't defend some asshole just because they are gay.

Sturgeon's Law says 90%, not 99.9%, and it isn't a law anyway.

Thanks for proving my point. Euphonium, as I just said, is a drama series. Not a SoL series like K-On.

Nah, it had better pacing and some good ideas but it fucked up everything else.

Maybe but after those terrible opening episodes I lost faith and didn't watch the rest. I did watch the finale to give it another chance but it somehow managed to be worse.

>but they used up all their good ideas and now season 6 is gonna suuuuuuuuck
You can do A LOT with FiM, they would have to go to extreme lengths to actually run out of ideas. The current show runners are simply incompetent, they either need someone who genuinely cares like Renzetti or Faust did or a better team behind production.

The crystal empire is irredeemably terrible. Literally nothing good came from those episodes, and ballad of the crystal empire is probably the worst two-parter of the series. Season 3 was the worst.

I won't argue that the show isn't in very good hands though. They're fucking shit up something fierce.

if venture bros doesn't count as "modern," I'd say Bojack Horseman takes the crown.

However, Gumball at its best is the funniest, most well written, and most innovative thing on television. It's just inconsistent.

I certainly can't truly call anything the best modern cartoon but I'll give Adventure Time the title of most important as it was an incredibly different show that inspired a whole new wave of style while being a genuinely good show maybe even the best for some time. It had a really undesirable dip in quality for a bit but it's getting back to being a great and interesting show.

I have to give Clarence props for being the incredible children's show it is. Not cartoon. But children's show. It's a very heartwarming show to watch and can really outdo itself sometimes. Severely underrated. It's sad.
>>
>>82600437
I have to politely disagree on both comments.
>>
>>82600475
You don't agree that Adventure Time may be the most influential modern cartoon around? And what criticisms do you have of Clarence?
>>
>>82600539
Not on that. It is truly influential but I don't see that as a good thing.

Clarence is just stupid.
>>
>>82600598
Clarence hits home hard with how relatable it can be. If you can't stand the characters you probably don't like actual kids. It's like experiencing the whimsy of being a kid all over again.

Though I agree with you Adventure Time's influence is far from a good thing. It's rather disappointing, the extent its affect had. Doesn't stop me from liking the show for what it is although it had it's incredible dips.
>>
>>82600781
>Clarence hits home hard with how relatable it can be. If you can't stand the characters you probably don't like actual kids. It's like experiencing the whimsy of being a kid all over again.
I can only hope that means Web access is now retard friendly because I refuse to believe Clarence depicts normal kids. Nobody I know IRL acted like that when we were little and no I'm sure it's not nostalgia goggles. If anyone had acted like the kids in Clarance I would remember because even the dumbest/craziest kid from my childhood looks sane in comparison.

Maybe it's a northamerican thing but it definitely isn't my childhood.

You could jump around a bit and go back to figure out the plot if you wanted to enjoy it but can't seem to. You're already giving it a chance, but if you're genuinely unhappy with the product don't "force" yourself.

It really is a north American thing now that you mention it, but of course aspects are exaggerated for the sake of being a cartoon.
