harsh tone but that was supposed to express the fact that I am really annoyed by that. For example after I saw that last star wars movie with some friends the first comment I made was something like "this film is pile of shit and bad writing made for the sole purpose of making money". Some of them agreed some didn't and a discussion ensued.
Here I don't see anyone trying to counter that argument in any way.

Well, then, let me waste my time trying to talk to you.
First, Anime is a completely stylized art form, so it relies heavily in deformations and symbols such as this face, that # that appears on angry characters and huge sweat drops. This stuff actually improves the medium, otherwise they wouldn't exist at all.
Also, it makes no sense to ask for a realistic artstyle when the actual scene would only get worse. These are used mostly for comedy and light-hearted scenes and, surprise surprise, they aren't supposed to be serious. Dropping them brings no benefit.
Second, you're trying really hard to bring a "muh old artstyle" discussion into this thread, and nobody likes that shit. It's been proved time and time again that these charts are based solely on cherry-picking examples, old high-budgets OVA against long-running low budget series, nobody takes them seriously anymore.
Most of these negative replies are because you're trying to bring an off-topic discussion to an otherwise pacific thread. If you really want to get proven wrong with better proofs, just make a new thread yourself.

There, have I tickled your autistic fancy yet?

WTF? People like anime because you have more variety of stories than cartoons (what we have nowadays? Some kid's shows and capeshit?), also, there's still the difference in the art-style itself that helps a lot too.

(pic is just a example, to you may look like shit but it's still different and fresh compared with the things we have and even with other anime).
