I took a peak at /a/ once. There was a thread entitled 'penis' that had well over a hundred replies.
Frankly RWBY belongs on /a/. It sucks.
>>389776
>faggot who doesn't browse the board having a say on what belongs there or not
Fuck off idiot.
>>389777
I like dubs over subs too.
RWBY is on Crunchyroll.
The manga is running in Japanese manga newspapers and written by japanese people.
Next you're gonna tell me that Seven Deadly Sins isn't an anime because Netflix paid for it.
>>389779
There are times for dubs. I'm having trouble thinking of any that aren't Black Lagoon right now but there are some.
>>389793
I thought RWBY was created by westerners.
>>389793
>Manga newspapers
Fuck off, idiot
Manwha, Manhua and other gookshit needs to come off /a/ too.
I don't really go to /a/ but if the mods are seriously trying to push RWBY as anime then quite simply the mods have to be replaced with new people as they are not fit to do their jobs. RWBY absolutely is not anime, and people trying to push it as anime most likely have sinister motives.
>>389793
Crunchyroll doesn't decide what anime is, and the manga is not the same thing as the series
I still don't understand weebs.
In Japan they call Spongebob Squarepants Anime. They don't call it "KATUUN" or anything. What is up with westerners and thinking that the primacy of where a work comes from matters at all? Legend of Korra was animated by the same team that made Naruto Shipuuden. Is it really not anime just because it was the brainchild of a Westerner? What about American shows made by Japanese people? Are they then Anime?
>>389808
>egend of Korra was animated by the same team that made Naruto Shipuuden.
Both shit.
>>389808
>KATUUN
spilled my water
and of course you are right, but yeah, weebs are retarded, nothing new
>>389808
Anime is a very distinct form of animation. It's not the same thing as other animation.
>Legend of Korra was animated by the same team that made Naruto Shipuuden.
The credits on ANN show mostly Japanese people, whereas Korra was animated entirely in Korea. But more importantly, Korra was conceived and designed by Americans whereas Naruto is Japanese.
>What about American shows made by Japanese people? Are they then Anime?
Depends. What shows are you talking about?
>>389810
Literally this. They're all cartoons.
>>389800
It was.

If using the same methods or tools makes any two animations the same, then these two must be the same because they are both hand-drawn (or in Disney's case it's probably rotoscoping but nevermind):

>>389835
No.
>>389840
>Adult Swim financed it.
So?
>>389840
Was it made in Japan?
>>389842
So it wasn't made for the Japanese Market. It failed there. It was made for the American Market.
>>389843
I don't see how that's relevant. 45 percent of Animaniacs Episodes were made in Japan and those aren't Anime.
>>389845
Because it's made for a Japanese market then yes it is anime.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIweiW20eE4
Is this Anime? Made in Japan. Miyazaki's in the credits.
>>389844
What market it's made for is irrelevant in and of itself.
Also:
>The Big O premiered October 13, 1999 on WOWOW satellite television. It finished its run on January 19, 2000. The English-language version premiered on Cartoon Network on April 2, 2001 and ended on April 18 2001. Originally planned as a 26 episode series, low viewership in Japan reduced production to the first 13. Positive international reception resulted in a second season consisting of the remaining 13 episodes; co-produced by Cartoon Network, Sunrise, and Bandai Visual. Season two premiered on Japan's SUN-TV on January 2, 2003, and the American premiere took place seven months later. Following the closure of Bandai Entertainment in 2012, Sunrise announced at Otakon 2013, that Sentai Filmworks rescued both seasons of The Big O.
So because there was enough of an audience in America, they produced the other 13 episodes that they would have produced anyway had there been enough interest in Japan. It also premiered in Japan before it premirered in the US.
>>389847
No.
Why do you keep posting this shit that very obviously isn't anime and asking if it's anime?
>>389847
Made for which market?
>>389846
Then BigO season 2 isn't anime.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR794_QBmug

>>389847
>>389848
Oh wait, I confused this with some other movie. Little Nemo is kind of a borderline case because of the amount of American involvement. I don't think of it as anime though.
>>389852
It's anime in the sense that it's Japanese animation and produced within the anime industry, but it has very little in common with the vast majority of anime.
>>389854
Unless there's something unusual going on with the production (can't be bothered to check), then yes it is anime.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r1SvVqADvY
Is this anime?
>>389859
If you have some kind of point then let's hear it. If you don't have a point then feel free to stop posting.
>>389860
I'm trying to divine what exactly is anime.
I used to think "The way they draw faces to look with that big eyed small nose thing" meant anime, but Avatar isn't anime, so it's obviously not that.
Then I thought "It's made in Japan" was anime, but Animaniacs and Little Nemo in Slumberland were both made in Japan, so it's obviously not that.
Then I thought "The person who came up with the story lives in Japan" but then it turns out that this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eme9tEOWgCY counts as anime, so it's obviously not that.
Then I thought it has to do with the animation techniques used, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlyBkJrDUNM counts as anime, which, by the way, is the exact same method that RWBY (which isn't anime) uses, so it's not that.
Then I thought that it meant "Intended for the Japanese Market" but it turns out Season 2 of Big O counts as Anime, so it's obviously not that.
So then I thought maybe it's a checklist, and if you cover enough of those points then you're anime.
- Made in Japan
- Invented by a Japanese person
- Traditionally Animated
- "Anime" looking aesthetic
- Intended for the Japanese Market
But some of the ones people said Yes to only flag two of those and some of the ones people say no to flag three of them!
I think I know the answer now though. There isn't one and you're all a bunch of fucking autists.
>>389863
RWBY is from Korea.
Get that through your thick skull.
>>389866
Fuck. Ignore >>389868 my clipboard decided to fag out on me.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Lt37Pbuqgs
So this isn't anime, right?
>>389863
>I'm trying to divine what exactly is anime.
A Japanese form of animation that differs from Western animation in almost every conceivable sense. Anime isn't anime because of some single thing in isolation, but because of a combination of many different things.
>I used to think "The way they draw faces to look with that big eyed small nose thing" meant anime, but Avatar isn't anime, so it's obviously not that.
Avatar doesn't look like anime.
>Then I thought "The person who came up with the story lives in Japan"
That's never been a requirement.
>Then I thought it has to do with the animation techniques used, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlyBkJrDUNM counts as anime, which, by the way, is the exact same method that RWBY (which isn't anime) uses, so it's not that.
So then by your logic Snow White and Madoka are the same thing because they were both drawn with pen and paper? Really? Also, RWBY from what I remember is made with some weird program that isn't even designed for animation. Expelled from Paradise is like actual professional animation.
>Then I thought that it meant "Intended for the Japanese Market" but it turns out Season 2 of Big O counts as Anime, so it's obviously not that.
Again, they just produced the episodes they would have produced anyway.
>>389870
>Avatar deosn't look like anime.
Neither does BigO.
>>389869
No, it isn't anime.
>>389863
World Masterpiece Theater anime like Anne of Green Gables have no involvement from their original creators. The stories are interpreted and directed by Japanese. The biggest qualifier for anime is Japanese producers, directors, production committee members and key animators.
>>389871
It does, and there is a difference between an American and Japanese production in this regard. If Americans are going to make "anime" then they have to make something that is as blatantly anime as possible. The Japanese do not have to do the same.
>>389870
>A Japanese form of animation that differs from Western animation in almost every conceivable sense. Anime isn't anime because of some single thing in isolation, but because of a combination of many different things.

PSG
What's more anime, Miraculous Ladybug or Kaiba?
>>389870
Anime is defined precisely by the stamp of approval given by the anime-making and anime-viewing community. Nothing more and nothing less. Think of it like a guild; the approval is given by the people that specialize in the topic.
This is the simplest explanation for why /a/ turns over anime in order to find the mythical magical "seal of approval"; they are literally looking for some indication from some guild member that the animation in question is genuine anime.
>>389875
- Anime is a product of Japan's culture, subculture, history, society and language, and those things permeate every aspect of anime
- Anime is aesthetically very different from Western animation
- Anime is based on cinema whereas Western animation is largely based on cartoons (well, American animation at least)
- The Japanese have a radically different concept of what animation is, which is why shows like Aoi Hana, Serial Experiments Lain and Kanon exist while the West has barely done anything not intended for children and families
- The animation and production techniques of anime are very different
- The anime industry is very different than any of the West's industries, e.g. how it's joined at the hip with manga, light novels and games and the music industry
- The fan culture surrounding anime is very different from anything in the West
Those are just some differences that immediately come to mind.
>>389773
I can't wait for Japan to make their own anime adaption of RWBY sot that /a/ get's but-blasted again.
>>389882
Hey, you're the weeb that got caught samefagging in a thread that was here a while ago. Kek. All you said was 'is very different' a bunch of times. They're cartoons from another country. That's it.
Lain was pretty dope tho. Too bad despera probably isn't gonna happen.
>>389886
You're retarded, desu.
>>389886
I don't know what thread you're talking about, but I don't do samefagging. Unless you're one of those genius newfags who thinks samefagging means posting more than once in one thread. In that case, yes, I sure have "samefagged" a lot.
>All you said was 'is very different' a bunch of times.
Well gee, maybe a 4chan thread is not the best place to write incredibly in-depth explanations for every reason why anime differs from Western animation.
>They're cartoons from another country. That's it.
Anime is not cartoons, and it's radically different from Western animation. As I just explained.
>>389882
>the West has barely done anything not intended for children and families
The same is true of japan. If you're going to cite hentai, that isn't a real example because those are intended for kids too, it's just Japan likes to give porn to children. And put children in their porn.
>>389892
I.e. anime vs. American shows that were inspired by anime and went for a similar look. And it's not merely character design that aesthetically separates the two. And even if there exist a few shows that look very similar to anime (because they are intentionally emulating it), how does it somehow prove that American animation and anime are the same?
>>389895
>The same is true of japan.
Not even remotely true. You're either lying or just have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
>>389895
Also:
>it's just Japan likes to give porn to children. And put children in their porn.
What the hell does any of this mean?

>>389899
>You honestly think Drawn Together, Fritz The Cat, Heavy Metal, South Park, A Scanner Darkly, Aquateen Hunger Force, Minoriteam, The Boondocks, Betty Boop, I'm bored
What's the significance of this list? That they're animation not for children and families? I never said such animation doesn't exist. There just exists very little of it (also, A Scanner Darkly doesn't count). There are hundreds and hundreds of anime that aren't for children and families, and they cover just about every genre and subject matter there is.
>You're a pedophile who likes loli.
What the fuck are you talking about?
>Pic related ran on Chiba TV in a daytime time slot.
Sounds highly unlikely. But even if it did, so what?
>>389900
I don't count it as anime.
>>389879
There's no sliding scale of being anime. Kaiba is anime. Does Ladybug have a Japanese director, production committee, and key animators? If not, then it is not anime.
>>389900
Animatrix is made of several vignettes. Some are made by Japanese (those are anime). Some are made by Westerners (those are not anime).
to be anime it must either be produced in japan by japanese people or be indistinguishable from such
this is a definition I made up just now but who fucking cares it works for most things
>>389883
Would love to see that, it would be the Naruto shitstorms all over again
>>389942
I glanced at the wiki article and credits and it seemed like there was too much foreign involvement. On closer inspection it seems like all the animation and art work was done in Korea and most everything else in Japan. Maybe it qualifies as anime, but I don't know. No animation work was done in Japan.
I don't know why Japan was even involved with the project. All the animation and such is the hard part and if the Koreans are doing it then they should be able to do everything else as well.
>>389952
>Every other boards' mods do this shit
Do what, exactly?
>>389956
If you mean the animation work was contracted to Japanese studios, then that doesn't make them anime.
>>389950
I no longer respect your opinion.
I mean, I never did, but I'm declaring that now.
>>389807
Name one other show on Crunchyroll that isn't anime.
>>389969
>I'm really wary of any production where the animation and background work is offshored wholesale.
Nobody in 4chan except the most exceptional weebs care whether the amount of animation outsourced is 40% or 100% if it looks and sounds Japanese. I'm not even sure the Japanese think of it as "foreign anime."
>>389967
Crunchyroll hosts a lot of live-action stuff.
>>389977
Weebs wouldn't care about that at all. They're too busy watching shounen anime and pretending to be Japanese.
>>389969
>What are you talking about?
You have demonstrated yourself incapable of discerning what is and isn't anime, and have failed to provide a litmus test that satisfies all of the examples provided throughout the thread. >>389880 proves to have the best description of what is and isn't anime.
Face it. The world is too big for your exclusionary nature to be logically defensible. Either season 2 of Big O isn't anime or Little Nemo in Slumberland is.
What is and isn't anime is an entirely American problem. The Japanese don't care. They call Steven Universe "Anime" they call South Park "Anime" and they call Spongebob Squarepants "Anime". Westerners are the only ones who give a shit. Western autists, that is. Most westerners don't fucking care. Every time somebody looks at my fucking drawings they say, "Oh, you draw Anime huh?" like it means anything. I say, "Sure." And yet I'm not a Japanese man from Japan living on Japanese soil.
It doesn't mean anything. Anime doesn't matter.
>>389981
>You have demonstrated yourself incapable of discerning what is and isn't anime, and have failed to provide a litmus test that satisfies all of the examples provided throughout the thread.
There doesn't exist some hard set of criteria that will absolutely draw a clear line between anime and not anime. There are edge cases (which this thread is obsessed with even though they're almost never relevant otherwise).
>Either season 2 of Big O isn't anime or Little Nemo in Slumberland is.
Big O is anime, and I'm not sure abot Nemo because of all the foreign involvement.
>The Japanese don't care. They call Steven Universe "Anime" they call South Park "Anime" and they call Spongebob Squarepants "Anime"
Why do people keep constantly trying to use this semantic argument when it's been debunked over, over and over again? It really is just pure semantics. Anime is anime not because of its name but because of all the things I already pointed out earlier. Madoka doesn't become equivalent to Snow White just because a Japanese person calls them both anime (i.e. animation, which is what anime is short for). They are fundamentally different.
>Westerners are the only ones who give a shit.
It's easier to look at this from the outside than it is from the inside.
>Most westerners don't fucking care
How is this an argument for anything?
>It doesn't mean anything. Anime doesn't matter.
Then why are you arguing about it this much?
>>389990
>It's almost like the definitions of words, such as "anime", are a semantic issue.
It's a semantic argument where something becomes anime because it's called anime. And that's incorrect.
>>389986
>Then why are you arguing about it this much?
It passes the time.

Nemo is one hell of a borderline case, but the production team WAS led by Yutaka Fujioka, was fully animated in Japan and was meant for a worldwide market that included Japan, where it also premiered before anywhere else.
I'd say it's anime.
>>389793

Sorry, but /a/ has never held a high opinion of Crunchyroll. After they went full Fakku, I don't think anyone on their has made any attempt to defend them.

The manga is fine-- in moderation. I've seen Mass Effect and DMC both have threads on /a/, and that's fine; but Mass Effect doesn't belong on /a/, and DMC shouldn't belong on /a/ either but it does. The Mass Effect threads also tend to stay on the topic of Japanese promo material, but that might be because nobody wants to discuss the games.

But it's not made by Americans. Also, it's not garbage. Same rules apply to Big O.

>>391166
It's called categorizing and making a distinction between things. Why do people go mega autism over the difference between a movie and film? Cartoon and anime are the same thing, but when people say anime, they mean japanimation and cartoon is westanimation. Getting upset or making a deal over people doing that just makes you are a faggot who wants to offtopic shitpost

Anime and cartoons only carry a difference to western audiences because the term was designated to refer to Japanese animation. Anime and cartoons are the same thing.

That's Seinen. And,well, let's jus say that your average Naruto and moeblob shows don't belong to it.
>>391325
So, there is shounen, shoujo, seinen... it seems like anime has specific tyoes for different interests... just like western cartoons! It's almost like, or exactly like, having age-specific cartoons is a horrible factor for deciding what is and isn't anime.
俺はそんな事悟空の境界線上が!
Anime in Japanese means cartoons.
Anime in English means Japanese cartoons.
We are communicating in English right now.
Why does it matter if the Japanese use the same word for both Japanese animation and non-Japanese animation? What difference does that make to us? Anime is just a word, the word itself doesn't matter, what matters is the meaning behind the word. When we talk about anime, we are talking about Japanese cartoons. You could rename /a/ to "/a/ - Japanese cartoons & Japanese comics" and literally nothing would change.
There is no such thing as a word that refers specifically to French animation in either French or English, right? But just because there is no such word doesn't mean it would be impossible for us to have, in theory, a board dedicated solely to French animation, would it?
>>390128
So everybody on every board should shut the fuck up and let the mods do whatever they want no matter if it contradicts with global rules or not?
You might want to move to North Korea.
>>391434
yeah it says right there in global rule 24 that the RWBY manga is not a manga
>>391436
RWBY manga is a manga, sure.
But let's be honest here. RWBY is a Western franchise and all 4chan RWBY fans are already happily discussing everything RWBY related on /co/. There are no issues with discussing RWBY manga on /co/, just like there are no issues with discussing Toonami stuff on /co/. There is literally no reason whatsoever to create RWBY manga threads on /a/ since /a/nons either don't care about RWBY or are actively hostile against it. People who make RWBY manga threads on /a/ know this and the only reason they make those thread is so they can annoy /a/nons. You will never ever be able to have an actual conversation about RWBY manga on /a/ since people will keep shitposting those threads, and if you ban them or delete their posts they'll just circumvent bans and do it again and again until the thread dies. Everyone knows this. Those threads are literally shitpost centrals.
Why do internet moderators even exist? In theory, they're supposed to be members of a community who "police" that community to safeguard it from various kinds of shit. Someone who moderates a board should be a person who actually likes that board and people who post there and who regularly posts on that board. That's why you become an internet moderator or a janitor, right? Because you like your board and appreciate all the fun times you had on it and want that to continue, right? That's why you do it despite getting no monetary compensation.
The person who protects RWBY threads quite clearly hates /a/ and only protects RWBY threads to get back at all those annoying weebs who post on /a/. He's not an /a/non. There is no other logical explanation for his actions. So why is a person who is not only not a member of the community but also a person who literally hates that community in a position of power in that community?

Oh, and don't get me wrong. Obviously mods are people too and like all people, they have their own opinions on things and sometimes those opinions differ from the opinions of the majority on the board they moderate. Look at nipplemod, for example. I'm certain nipplemod was only doing what he was doing because he believed it was the right thing to do, and that he believed he was doing /a/ a favor by trying to prevent a very popular seasonal topic from degenerating into a 24/7 porn dump. Sometimes the right thing to do is the unpopular thing to do. But in the RWBY case, that's not what's happening. RWBY case is the case of a person who literally hates /a/ abusing his powers just to annoy /a/ because he found a loophole that allows him to do it.
