Don't worry, when Boruto ends, we'll have a prequel on Boruto's dad which will become a big hit and be known as a classic in many years.
Tom Lai I really hope so. He seems a nice guy, i would love to see how he became like that.
Tom Lai fucking clown shoes.
Boruto’s Dad, HD Filler Cut Edition!
Borutos Dad Kai would be amazing
I'd like to know how boruto's dad was in his teens as well, but it might just be boring and all over the place.
Seasonal Anime might not be killing anime, but it's slowly killing the people making it.
Oh God, the truth of that comment stings.
+Fro4show Yeah, it's fucking sad that the medium that produces so many amazingly creative and unique shows , by the way pretty much the only medium that consistently puts out narrative driven, often experimental and high-concept multiple episode shows, let alone animations (the west pretty much only has Breaking Bad, Avatar etc.), comes at the price of basically sweat shop level work conditions and pay.
Venom Stains The reality of that comment hurts.
Venom Stains nice joke lmao. You totally forgot to mention all the moe, loli and meaningless slice of life garbage that makes up 99% of the "amazing medium" known as anime. For every one decent show, there's 1000 trash shows being produced. Don't pretend like you don't know that.
Rayyan A This man knows. More than 50% of new shows every season are total garbage that don't even break even.
boruto dad
sasuke ?
i think he means tsunade
Yes daddy
Sarada's dad is Naruto
Walid Fheiejdb Sausage?
oniel ortiz my son your favorite anime is shit
Is it wrong that I don’t watch seasonally any more? I just watch what I’ve heard is good and watch it... then I try seasonal stuff... after the episodes build up...
I’ve been always able to talk to my friends about older shows... somehow... also Nichijou in the thumbnail. Cliiiiiiiiiiick!
EccP productions
My life story.
it's fine, I do the same. keeping up with seasonal anime is just too much work nowadays. I just usually pick the shows I want to watch, wait until they end, and watch them when I feel like it.
EccP productions idk the only seasonal thing I watched so far Was Boku no Hero Academia & thats sth I have been reading the manga for before season 1 was even announced so I was going to watch it eventualy anyway. Right now I just follow a channel Semblance of Sanity & watch most stuff they do now
EccP productions Id say its fine cause who has the time? It takes too much time for me to catch up with my sub box here theres no way I could add Every seasonal hype to that
Sometimes too much is both a blessing and a curse
Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing.
Indeed. That's why it's more important than ever to look at what anime might be for you and then give those anime a chance with 3 episode rule to see if they are worth your time to continue. With that method I have found lot of anime that I have ended up liking and only some that I have ended up dropping. Then again it helps me that some times I just enjoy silly anime like Kantai Collection and Girls & Panzer.
Yeah, both the anime and the video game scene is getting diluted pretty fast...
Hollywood and mainstream media tend to oversaturate something and want to water it down just to make more money are the anime fans? Not really they're just there to make money off of a genre that they see fit to make the money. We is anime fans and anime experts like Akata to spread the love and knowledge of anime and call him out when they make a suck ass American version like Netflix death note
Ironically, I feel that the movie industry isn't facing such a sharp decrease in quality, probably because it's an older industry and it's dilution happened very slowly. Maybe it's also because it got the chance to grow before the internet changed things as it did recently. I mean, there's still a fair number of good and artistic films out there, but quality anime and games are becoming less prevalent. I mean, what's artistic games have come out recently? DDLC? Undertale? Anime is slightly better off, with stuff like HeroAca and Made in Abyss, but I fear that the more popular mass appeal anime will eventually drown the artistic ones. Just as Arkada said about Made in Abyss in the video.
"Bleach, One Piece, and *B O R U T O 'S D A D*"
I think that's become sort of a meme lmao, I actually find it hilarious though, it definitely pushes the buttons of some people :D
I dare you to say Boruto's dad again
boruto's dad
mind teaching me what show it is
Naruto, and Naruto: Shippuden. It's ridiculously long, but if you want to watch it, that's absolutely positively probably your choice to make.
Oh, Boruto's dad. He's called Pingu and he is coming from the city
HOW DARE YOU INSULT PINGU LIKE THAT!
(Pengu isn't even old enough)
Oh silly Arkada anime fans have no friends.
Stardust Nova #tooreal
Stardust Nova I watch anime for me.
I have friends and like anime... Wait dubbed Pokemon in the 90s counts as anime right?
*Cries like an Anime fan at prom night*
classic is a nostalgia when you were young and watched the first ones that mold your liking in anime
Quick question are you going to review Made in Abyss?
Please yes. It's amazing.
Soon, we hope
Great show, just really dark
Keyboard Jesus wtf there were literally like two dark/sad scenes in the entire show? compared to Re: Zero and Madoka it really isn't that "edgy"...
Keyboard Jesus Your statement is edgy.
All I care about is if the show is good.
Just started watching monster (12eps in) and finished phantom Requiem for the phantom my focus is just on watching quality shows and I save the current shows for binging around a couch with my friends
Nkosilathi Sibanda I am also currently watching monster (37 episode in) and it is so great, the suspense is real and the character are so intriguing.
monster has a couple points where it starts to drag but I highly recommend powering through if you like the stuff with Johan. It's completely worth finishing and immensely satsifying
cptawesome yeah like the part with the old man vampire trying to find his son is good but it got tedious after a while especially since you spend so much time with new character for several episodes that I thought I watched a different show. Other than that I am looking forward to figuring out the deal with Johan and Nina/Anna
Monster is not worth watching. Shit is trash
Monster is a fantastic anime, It's definitely one of my favourites.
Boruto dad im WOKE
Weird. Maybe it's because I only started watching anime about 3 years ago, but I actually only watch a few new shows (the newest ones that come to mind are My Hero Academia, New Game, Gamers and Little Witch Academia) because I'm still working through all the really good stuff from the 2000s and early 2010s.
GO WATCH BAKA TO TEST NOW ,,, GAMERS WAS A MISTAKE
Good for you, enjoy it. So many great shows; try to go back even more, the 90's had so many good shows
Same here, on my way to finish FMAB, and then monster, gurren lagan etc. (Recommend me more psychological and action stuff please!)
Watch the first FMA before brotherhood. I really enjoyed the original work when I was watching it years and years ago.
Gundam 00 has some emotional stuff going if you're into mecha as well
lol me too!i watch 5 old shows,5 airing shows,2 shounen (currently on naruto and one piece)
Seasonal anime was a mistake
-Glass Reflection, 2017
I think that simply the status of a "classic anime" became unattainable by seasonal modern shows, and that these good shows (like Made in Abyss, Shinsekai Yori, etc...) are "modern classics", which means they aren't subjects to constant discussions like Evangalion or Serial Experiment Lain. They're still shows that when a friend says he hasn't watched, every decent anime fan would recommend that friend to watch this modern classic, but they'll move on from it once they watched it, not giving it as much importance/relevance as Cowboy Bebop.
not always if you keep up with the animes coming out and just one episode you can make plenty time considering im following the seasonable anime and are also watching kaiji ultimate survivor season 1 and soon 2
guy hircshorn made in abyss had awful pacing after the first three episodes
It's more like there are so many anime being done seasonally, more so than Hollywood movies and Television series that you don't allow yourself the time to fully appreciate the good series that you once watched, as our attention is always on the next big thing.
I've noticed this a few months back and it makes me sad, because even though I fully enjoyed some of those anime, I also realised that they are something I will soon forget, and because everyone has moved on, there's very little in the way for it to be known as a classic, as classics are those which are talked about for many years to come.
This @eunro. Kyoukai no Kanata was a good example of this. It was seen as a critical success, and is honestly one of the best in the season that it aired (same year as Log Horizon, Kill la Kill, Kuroko no Basket, etc). But it got overlooked by so many people because there was just SO MANY other shows. The sheer volume makes things impossible to keep up with.
But it was only one of the best. The three others you listed were quite good as well and honestly, Kill la Kill is just more memorable than Kyoukai no Kanata in both good and bad...
Personally, I've always been one to watch hidden gems and older shows nobody talks about, mostly because I'm always looking through creators I like and trying to find their older works. Or even with these obscure shows, I like trying to find meanings in the shows that a lot of people may have not thought about, due to the fact that the shows aren't very popular. It's like each show is almost a mystery, and I love that element to it. Especially early to mid 2000s anime is my favorite era to search for, mostly because people tend to ignore early digital shows due to their sometimes odd production values. Plus, through doing this, I have found tons of shows in my favorites that I probably wouldn't have otherwise. I really enjoyed Melody of Oblivion and Hakaba Kitaro, for example, and they are still shows that stick with me almost a year after watching it, in spite of how obscure they may be to the casual viewer.
I understand that people always look to seasonal shows to find the "latest, greatest thing", and I watch my fair share of seasonals as well, but I find searching for hidden gems just as gratifying. I feel like in this constant struggle to keep up with modern anime, people kind of forget about the long run. It's more about just finding those simple pleasures for the time being until the next show comes out. Which is all well and good, like I said, I enjoy watching seasonal shows, but I think there's also a lot of interesting qualities to old anime which people miss out on. Both to the "acclaimed classics" as well as the "hidden gems". And to me, I think it's also important to value these long term favorites. Create experiences with your entertainment that will stick with you and improve you as a person from watching it. I don't want "the seasonal cycle" to rob people of this opportunity.
RogerSmith2004 wow I’m the same as you, i really enjoy watching pre 2010 animes, for me, they give this ‘quality’ vibe rather than new animes, currently im watching black lagoon, revy is so badass, my fav animes are code geass and eureka seven which both of them are pre 2010 animes
I do both and still enjoy myself
It is fun to talk about a current airing show, especially stuff like Made in Abyss where more you get some deeper discussions. Also there are a lot more people to discuss it with than normally (flood the forums sometimes a bit too much for my taste).
Thing is watching seasonal shows is very risky because there is always a chance that it will turn out bad (look at Kado the Wrong Fucking Answer), plus a lot of shows will keep you hanging without a continuation (manga/LN bait). That is why I usually try to watch shows that are confirmed to be good and shows that seem to be less known
There are a at least two types of seasonal watchers, that come to mind. First are the new anime watchers who do just pick up whatever series they at least like and is popular enough, they are the type of which switch attention (practically forgetting what they watched before) from season to season and I would label them as casual fans really, since they are not really prepared to look for anything more than what is currently airing and they are here because its a trend.
Second there are some old anime fans that have watched almost everything they think is a classics and are now looking for something else to hold their interest (some go into new shows, some look for old hidden gems). Now these I would call anime veteran, they usually have some defined standards on what they enjoy, but are still prepared to try some stuff that the community its nothing special.
I am also certain there are some people who avoid seasonally watching anime like the plague and view only stuff that is proven to bee good because they do not want to waste their time on something mediocre or bad.
Personally I do not think it's too bad as long as you remember what you enjoy and are not just following from one trend to another like a mindless sheep. In the long run we can possibly also expect some improvements in the medium itself which is always good.
The thing that hooks me to Anime is knowing that there's plenty of fun shows yet to discover, and I have yet to watch the famous shows like the mecha shows that were spawned in the 80's, Panty and Stocky, Wolf's Rain, Eureka Seven and so much more!
WTF ARAKDA ARE YOU SAYING JOJO IS DEAD BECAUSE NO PART 5 ANNOUNCEMENT WELL THEN JOJO WILL LIVE FOREVER THROUGH MEMES FIGHT ME
JoJo has lasting value due to it's largely vocal fanbase (something I'm saying as a crazy JoJo fan myself). I don't DP has the balls to not to make a part 5 anime because it's extremely popular inside and outside Japan and fans will be pressuring them constantly.
imo I dont like how jojo is gonna be remember.... like a giant meme.
Luis Morales Those memes literally spawned part 4
David Productions could come out this second and say that they will not be adapting part 5, and Jojo's would still be a huge talking point on the internet due to memes.
Lol just wrote something like that before seeing your comment.
And, yeah, I dare DP to just try not to make VA. It's been like 300 days, I'm already slightly salty and I'll be *very* salty if that happens.
I don't care.
I'll be recommending Made in Abyss to absolutely everyone I know and will met in the future.
This and Monogatari Series.
The series got really heavy post-Nanachi.
This is what kept me and a friend of mine interested in the show.
It's my favorite anime now, and actually the first one I've ever gotten into that is completed. It's so good!
I'm still trying to get all my friends to watch Stein's;Gate
I know several that would love it but they haven't yet.
Made in Abyss is absolutely underrated. Someone recommended it to me and I didn't pick it up until I saw an anime reviewer talking about the studio (Studio Citrus) while also mentioning the anime. I recognized the name and decided to give it a shot. Instantly got hooked in the pilot episode. The animation, story, and soundtrack completely blew me away and it was the best decision I've ever made. The world-building in this anime is astounding to say the least.
World building is indeed amazing.
I didn't wanted to watch the anime at first because it looked like "cute kids doing cute stuff".
But I picked it up after watching a certain scene from episode 10 on UA-cam.
Boruto's dad
Can't believe you cashed in on that Boruto's dad joke.
wait was that a Joke? where did it came from?
I was more surprised by NOOT NOOT
It was a joke that Crunchyroll unintentionally made when they promoted the original Naruto series on Twitter, treating it like a prequel to Boruto.
Watched inuyashiki yet? What do you think of it? no one I follow seems to have talked about it feelsbad
i honestly don't know how I found out about it but this far it seems very intriguing and I'm glad I started watching it
BagazZ123 So... what kind of manga do you read?
BagazZ123 It's good, really damn good, so far it's a _"no holds barred"_ type of show, which I really respect after what I saw in episode 2, as dark as it was, it got really fast to the point of hating the antagonist, for the proper reasons.
As an Anime only, I'm in a very high anticipation to see how long this is gonna last, and what direction it heads into.
I've seen Inuyaha. Bit much on filler but i liked the demon mountain and giant samurai graveyard arcs.
I read the manga and the plot goes downhill and the ending was really disappointing. The only interesting things are the terrorist scenes.
Hey I just finished watching Kill la Kill for the first time
That's it. I just wanted to let you know ^-^
Steven!!!!
No one remember legend of galactic heroes....
I do! Yang is best grill
Lord Zephyros i was thinking of watching LoGH the last anime i will watch but that is almost impossible, i have lot of animes in my list but i maybe will never finish them
I'm pretty sure Reddit just went through a rewatch of it recently. And it'll get more attention again when Kuroko no Galactic Heroes hits in 2018.
I myself just finished it a few months ago. I still have some of the prequels and a movie left, but the main series left me ｂｒｏｋｅｎ
Best series of all time! Everyone should watch this...glorious piece of art!!!!!!!
Did someone say Galactic Heroes? :3
ShinSekai Yori or Made in Abyss should be a classic D:
I hope you review Made in Abyss :D
I cannot believe the show for a while flew under my radar because of how little people were talking about it!
Until someone just said to me "Hey there is an anime that kinda looks like that game you like Etrian Odyssey." I just had no idea of it's existence.
can't blame people who don't watch it, when i was looking at anime for that season i totally ignored it based on the art assuming it was a kids show, however i was super bored and decided to watch the first episode and my god it became the show i was most exited for each week
It is the only anime I've seen this season and I'm so happy it got so lucky on the first try. I didn't even know what it was about I just saw clips of it and thought it looked like an adventure world building type series (there usually my favorite).
TG Maps "when i was looking at anime for that season i totally ignored it based on the art assuming it was a kids show, however i was super bored and decided to watch the first episode and my god it became the show i was most exited for each week", and thanks to that fact Made in abyss is hugely speeding up in it's growth as the proportion of people continue to spead word of that and find out (as clear on the myanimlist forum)! =D
I dont think it is. the greats will still rise to the top
not the greats but the ones with lasting value. Anime is becoming like Hollywood. Great anime like Made in Abyss which like Arkada said is classic material is getting forgotten due to not having a lasting value due to the more franchise based anime gobbling up it's popularity.
I'd argue something can have lasting value even if it isn't part of a franchise. The problem is that the shows with lasting appeal will generally be those that try to explore deeper subjects/themes (ie: Evangelion, Serial Experiments Lain) while simpler shows that may be great fun to watch simply won't be remembered because there's plenty of other shows that are also great fun to watch. The exception being shows that push the bounds of the medium, those are also likely to be remembered (even if only by a more niche crowd). A show like Psycho-Pass is regarded as a modern classic because there was more to watching than just a good time or shock value.
And to be clear, I don't believe there's anything wrong with popcorn-media. I adore Nolan films despite them having no deeper themes or messages (at least lately), but I wouldn't consider them classics.
I love ERASED
I need more Made in Abyss 😭😭 such a shame season 1 ended like that, it had the potential and the story line to be a long running anime and not just an anime of 12 episodes. Makes me sad 😭
Zankyou no Terror ost tho :')
I have no idea why Made in Abyss isnt more popular than it is, considering that
1) There is amazing looking manga to read (dont fucking say you cant read black and white pages you filthy casual)
2) Summer season was a trash full of slice-of-life/harem/highschool shit so it literally had Hero Academia and Recreators lasting from spring + 1 original title (MiA)
I enjoyed the show as much as you do, though the two points you mentioned there was actually kind of answered itself. There's quite a lot of anime-only viewers so they probably don't care much about source materials and their reception (Sadly). Also some people I came across felt the pacing in the middle of Made in Abyss slower, which somehow related them to SoL series (and yes, I couldn't quite fathom this as well) and thus lowering their hype for the show.
Regardless, that's my solid nomination for anime of 2017 up to current concluded seasons.
Anime is dead and we killed it
No Nietzsche plz
Anime is dead and so am I... Wait what the fu-
Mitsuki Kazen
You are already dead.
Anime was a mistake
Everything is a mistake.
People have friends to talk about anime with?
Friend? What's that? A new Pokémon?
Nah I wouldn't say that.
People still talk about Konosuba and One Punchman.
Nobody talks about the daily lives of high school boys now
Striker775 literary girl would remember
Last
Because saying "first"is overrated!!
wow dude. hilarious.
For me, when I started into anime I wanted to watch entire shows that I could binge while studying in college. My friend recommended several classic shows: Cowboy Bebop, Death Note, Code Geass, the Evangelion movies... So I started at the classics and moved into the seasonal shows. Where I promptly found a large vein of Season 2s that required me to go back and watch the first ones. In all honesty, I still use a similar method when getting other people into it. Mixing both old classics and new seasonal shows into recommendations. But that just me and my friends.
That's why enthusiasts like you exist. To share the word of forgotten old tittles or soon to be. Like I've been watching anime since the pokemon craze and i would have never watched spice and wolf or maoyu if it wasn't for Arkada talking about them.
*when a montage of anime appears and you know almost all of them* I'm pretty sure I don't have a life
except eromanga sensei.....XD!!
hey! Can you tell me the name of the anime at 1:18-1:24? Thanks
It is possible that I am mistaken, but it looks like Space Patrol Luluco.
Classics dont became classics in just a few months. An anime need a few years to became a classic. So your judment about why made in abyss is not a clasic is a very early statement.
Shows that are already forgotten after a few months don't become classics.
Tibor Klein there have been animes series, poems, movies and other works of art that have been hated in the past but loved in a long run and they became classics.
Baccano! was all but forgotten in the months after its release. It was only years later that it emerged as a classic.
I wouldn't call Baccano! a classic... It's still not popular.
Pingu = best of current season
Yugioh is
NUG NUG!!
Yu-Gi-Oh! Vrains has had a lot of recaps lately. I think there may be some production problems for Yu-Gi-Oh! this year.
Animemus but the story is so good
While the seasonal anime format is lessening the potential for these anime to become classics, many of them would not even currently exist if it were not for this format. So while I see how it might be considered a curse, I think it is more of a blessing.
2:28 Holy dang! That's "Old Joe" from the Ping Pong OST!
I certainly see where your coming from with this, I have noticed tons of starting to ignore show I love but in my opinion, that doesnt really change anything for me personally. I will continue to adore shows that I love and recommend them to others no matter when they came out or what the current season is. Well that’s just me though, the social aspect of anime never really effects my opinions or desire to watch things.
Crowned Cryptid It only effects elitist who cherish old classics and despite seasonal animes
Sooo..... Basically So much anime and so little time
The classics will never die......also nice work with the music choice.
I agree, just feels like you got the different type of watchers, those that care more about how it looks and others that appreciate older styles, the latter will always love the classics and will never abandon them
Knight Warrior "legends never dieee"
That ending was too good.
Wait wait, people actually avoid watching amazing older shows because their friends are talking about newer ones? Like, isn't a show being amazing enough incentive to watch instead of "oh shit I don't have anything to talk about with my friends so.....I have to watch new shows so I can talk to them"
Pingu first impression when?
Love Pingu in the City's cameo at the end there, it really deserves to be one of the greats.
I am a huge seasonal anime fan, however I also tend to watch one non seasonal anime at a time to fill dead days and to give something else to watch. However watching airing anime and one that's already complete, both give their own charms.
I like a mix of both. currently im watching the Ancient Magus's Bride, Food Wars season 3 and in the meantime while i wait for new episodes, i picked up cardcaptor sakura again to finish. My friend is also educating me on digimon which has been interesting and i may even watch the old series with her. So I certainly think that new anime doesnt kill old anime, because i see both talked about equally. Even with new anime this past year, my hero academia and even death parade has the greatest potential to be a classic, so i feel theres diamonds in the rough. It can certainly hinder the chances sure, but not completely kill classics. It all matters on word of mouth i guess.
If you didn't start off with the first Digimon anime then what did you watch? The current stuff like the Digimon Adventure tri. film series or Digimon Universe: Appli Monsters which ended a while ago? Or the not too old stuff like Digimon Savers/Data Squad or Digimon Xros Wars/Fusion?
Animemus she’s just teaching me about it. I grew up watching Pokémon (wow who would’ve guessed with a username like mine lol) so I don’t know a lot about digimon. So far I’ve seen clips from the series like characters and certain digivolutions so it’s all over from new to old.
Guess this is why u havent reviewed Rurouni Kenshin yet...
its a bad relation(ship)
u get older and therefore get more "refined" and demand niche stuff but at the same time anime becomes more mainstream and needs to cater to a bigger audience (and therefore is less niche-y)
FeelsBadMan
Boruto's dad is snoke
Only true anime/manga fans know that great symbol of friendship
I tend to just add the highly rated shows of every season to my watch list and just watch whatever I feel like watching. I wait until they're finished so I'm sure I'm not wasting my time with a bad show and because I like to binge watch shows. I finally started watching Mushishi, which I'm highly enjoying!
I like your profile picture, vash the stampede is asowme.
5 star ending to the video bro
I think the fear about "classic anime" going away, I think it's never going to go away because classics can only be determined in hindsight. We'll never know what will be considered a classic until it's all done with.
Exactly. 5-10 years from now, the classics will stand out above their contemporaries, but right now we're too close to their release to see which. I mean, classic now it may be, I don't know if I would have picked Baccano! as a series that would go on to become a classic if I was watching it when it aired in 2007
Yes noot noot
This is my biggest problem with these new anime fans. I personally watch many genres and I don't find any problem with things being "forgotten" by a constant flow of anime each season. Those who watch anime for enjoyment rather than to try and be trendy, very shallow might I add, will go and check out those better shows that were once popular. Either by finding them on MAL or A-P by searching popular shows or through recommendations from sites or friends.
It's definitely true that things are forgotten fast and will not catch the eye of most, but again, this is ONLY those who dip their toes into anime only to leave it a few years, or even months, later.
We should be taking notice of how this sudden popularity of anime, yet with these fans coming and going so fast, affects the market and what seems in demand. Since they are not "true" anime fans(lack of a better term, I suppose) they view what is less "anime" to them, AOT, SAO, and it's popularity bursts yet years later they are gone. I'd say this affects things more. Netflix, Amazon and Sony are all in anime now. How does this bode for long term anime fans? I have no idea, but if in a few years a large amount of fans suddenly disappear and die out, well...
Anywho, great video.
Actually, I usually just rewatch all the best stuff that people like you recommend on top 10. I watched rezero like half a year after it ended, and erased after it end too.
same here
NO.... here's your answer
I like being able to talk about it in a "what is new" frame, and it allows for a more balanced approach due to what is discussed is defendant on time rather than quality. Everyone can agree on time, but not on quality, and thus everyone can talk about anime in the same frame. Discussing classics is usually a shitfest because the cancer of fandom has been festering too long.
Ms10000123 Ikr? It’s like they shit on modern seasonal shows but when you bring up the older stuff they get so excited.
meh, I watch anime by myself. I don't keep up with shows unless I find them interesting. I don't care for talking about the latest anime, I just want to enjoy watching anime.
I’m still talking about made in abyss!! Top 3 of summer ani!
I think something needs to be said about "production" and anime quality. Personally i prefer some of the old styles of cell animation then the newer CG style of animation they used today. its gotten to a point where its far less inspiring to watch recent anime now and yes every once in a while you will find an ambitious show that goes above and beyond expectations to deliver great quality and art. But there is just to many shows these days are over saturated with CG and styles i think are not as organic as some of the older anime's where. This is something that has not aged well over the years. My personal opinion.
Oh hey, i'm early
Don't have anything to say. Welp
Ok, so. The real question should be: "Do we really need more sword art online?"
Probably not
Recommendation
*Princess principal*
*Video*
well you'd be wrong in my case. i don't do things based on other people.
this is basically why i stopped watching anime 5 years ago. i still occasionally watch some old classics,but the new stuff..god.
i'm sure there's good anime out there,but there's just SO MANY of them. i don't know where to start,they all look kinda the same
Depends on what you're looking for. I'm mostly into seinen so there haven't been anything other than Attack on Titan this year. Though this season has Juuni Taisen, Garo Vanishing Line and Inuyashiki. Which all seem good for now. Last year only had Jojo part 4 and Mop Psycho 100. Which shows do you like?
My favorites(they're all pretty old at this point): FMA(2003 + Brotherhood),Death Note,Evangelion(Show + The End of Evangelion + Reboots)
I like Cowboy Bebop too,but i'm not much into episodic shows.
FMA Brotherhood is among my favorites! Death Note is very good as well. Didn't like Evangelion too much, but it's definitely unique. Feel pretty much the same about Cowboy Bebop.
If you want some recommendations, here's my favorites: Berserk 90's version (preferably the manga), Monster, Fate Zero, Attack on Titan, Hunter x Hunter 2011 and FMA Brotherhood as you mentioned.
There's also other really great series like: Kaiji, Shiki, Steins Gate, Psycho Pass (first season only), Parasyte the Maxim, Death Parade.
Then there's shows i feel are a bit similiar to Evangelion, not my taste but you might wanna check them out: Welcome to the NHK, Shinsekai Yori, Wolf's Rain, Ergo Proxy, Serial Experiments Lain, Ghost in the Shell, Texhnolyze, Legend of the Galactic Heroes.
I could mention a couple more i really like and some mangas if you're interested. I hope you find something here you like. Enjoy!
Me too. Only new anime i am watching this year have been new lupin and megalobox. I just mostly read manga because there is a lot of more stuff for my taste unlike with anime
Woukd you make. A Top 20 "classic" anime from the 80s,90s, and early 2000s list now???
NOOT NOOT
Seasonal anime is such a double edged sword.
Pro: instant entertainment gradification
Con: no room for classics to be noticed or formed
I honestly think because seasonal anime became a "thing", studios aren't taking the time to form "classics" because of the high demand for mainstream anime. If studios could create an anime that has the element of emersion, then we can get the ball rolling in achieving groundbreaking, classic story telling in japanese animation.
Made in Abyss wasn't killed by seasonal anime.
Made in Abyss was killed by Amazon.
I still consider it top 10 of all time.
Well this makes me sound like the most backwards anime fan XD I only watch a few airing stuff each season and binge old ones, it's rarely a social experience but when it is im always talking about my classics.
Even at .5 M subs, you are still speaking to a very small fan base. Go to Mojo and you will see "Your Name." at $5M domestic gross and by all standards that is one of the greatest animes and the rest of the world at $350M gross also thinks that. And if one sees that as domestic dislike of animation well "Despicable Me 3" at $263M (on no ones best list) disproves. Foreign films have always been segregated to the art house circuit. And anime is about as foreign as you can get!
Even with a poor English dub which often times plays like "Whats up Tiger Lily" , anime is still just too foreign and intentionally "arty" for the domestic audience whose lusts range for those K people, Justin Beiber, and Miley Cyrus.
That montage in the end made me cry damn. On an unrelated note, it's a shame that this channel doesn't a lot of views. Especially the recent ones. I always find that Arkada (hope I spelled it right) gives unique insights into an anime and has great recommendations.
Er... so after watching this video a few times, I am guessing you are basically blaming the internet for allowing people watching every anime available from Japan literally simultaneously, such that people cannot afford their attentions to the classics that they did not get to grow up with. And new animes keeps coming and bombarding them, such that there is no such thing as classic anymore. Well sorry, but that's just how anime/manga work in japan forever. In the sea of junk anime/manga, u would get classics from time to time. And now you are worried that people are overwhelmed coz you guys get to access the goods and bads overseas and is shortening your attention span, *awww*. Need not worry about not having new classics or old classic dying. What we think to be classics from our youth doesn't need to be classics for the youngsters. I hate pokemon/digimon/yugioh and gave limited love to bleach/naruto/one peace but younger kids love them. Plus, at times you would have classics that would last for generations to come. Look at Doraemon, Case Closed or KochiKame, Heck, I grew up with them in the 90s, and now there are kids who still go crazy for them, at least in Asia. Sorry for being blunt, but your point is kinda moot.
It's the other way around.
Anime companies that almost pay the workers nothing with 50+ hours weeks is killing anime, just as good anime that isen't getting new seasons is killing anime.
Short answer: Yes! There, I saved you 9 minutes of your lives.
Jovan Mitrić well I still want a more in depth answer, so I'm gonna watch it.
no you're wrong it's not killing anime it's killing the potential for an anime to become a classic.
Spiny Slasher PREACH! But what’s up with people wanting animes to be classics?
It's the same as people wanting several modern movies to be classics, but their statements gets swept under the rugs of more hyped and popcorn movies coming out every season.
Made in abyss is the best show this year
Never watched seasonal anime Il just wait till it comes out on blu ray/streaming sites to check it out/trying to keep up with them seasonally/weekly is too much work plus I rather support the industry as well then illegally see it/yes it's affecting anime
IMO, one punch man has the making of a classic and is currently becoming one.
The discussion on the show has died down since it's original release, but I still see new people go into it and talk about it on a regular enough basis.
Review Ero Manga Sensei! I want to know if it’s worse than school days but I don’t want to risk getting sent to jail for watching it
i notice based of what you've said you and me have different ideas of classics.to me classic is darker than black since i think it was original at the time as well as angel beats, future diary and gundam being my first experiences with those genres.
An easy way of keeping good anime classics nowadays: turn them into meme(s).
Omae wa mou shindeiru
I love the classics, and older anime. and typically I would rather wait until an anime has finished airing before I get into it so that I can watch more than one episode a week. Though there are times when I do watch as it airs.
Hard to say on true old anime suffers but thanks to seasonal anime we got Kekkai Sensen and Hero Academia I thank classics are the shows that stick with you after there seasons over.
To be honest erased ,re:zero are usually forgotten because nobody cares novel anime .Wait yuri on ice is having a movie
7:25 I love that your playing zankyou no terror ost. I love that whole sound track so much.
Ok people, I have a favor to ask... what are the effin songs here called!? i need to know D:
The problem for me is, whether I should watch this random series I see and either waste my time, or have the time of my life.
Who'd have thunk there were actually Archers in the Archer class?
People arent talking about erased because the ending was dissapointing
Anyone know the lovely song at 7:25?
And great video. I agree that looking backwards every time you need a break is easier than wading through what might be worth your time. Currently reading Erased, watching Mushishi, watching Natsume Yuujinchou, and finishing Bungaku Shoujo. May not be pre-2000, but at least they offer a casual experience and they are series worth thinking about after the conclusion.
apparently from Zankyu no Terror
You should display name of the anime your showing in your videos
You're totally right Arcada, I started to notice a couple of years ago with my favorite series of 2014 and 2015, only a couple of months after they ended, not a lot of people were talking about them. This's a sad reality we live in now.
Death Parade and Zankyou no Terror come to mind when you talk of these two specific years.
I'm still talking about Re Zero... sometimes
Hoenstly, a girl i know simply wont watch any anime before 2015. She just said there all bad despite being the building blocks of some of her favorites.
It just sucks that even now, some stand outs get forgotten just because it ends then a new show with far less depth comes along and gets more popular for no real reason. Or just shit memes that 90% of people dont get
Wait, before 2015. That's really unreasonable.
I am more of a horror/supernatural anime kind of girl. Though my two favorite animes would be Full Metal and Outlaw star. Oh yeah,definitely a gundam fan.
Theo Cambel Alchemist. Was never big on the Brotherhood. How is Full Metal Panic?
>.> lies this is the internet, there are no girls
sdfxcv blank lol, you silly ,silly person.
Theo Cambel I will have to take a look.
I often question the patron thanking. Not because it’s bad to do so, but the lines “I couldn’t do this without you”
Like would the channel close due to not having the time to make the videos when you need a different job or what?
Well there is nothing you can do about it. Patrons want some appreciation for their money.
Am I the only one that thinks Made in Abyss is not that good? >-
I generally watch random anime but the problem is that i don't know which are good classic anime and only come to know new anime because of its popularity.
Some older shows that i would highly recommend if you are looking to get into classic or older animes are:
Neon Genesis Evangelion (90's tv series not the ova series)
End Of Evangelion (If you liked the show and want to see the real ending)
Cowboy Bebop
Trigun
Lupin The 3rd (Part 2/3)
FLCL
Yu-yu Hakusho
Ranma 1/2
Berserk (1997)
Escaflowne
ah my goddess
Patlabor (try the first movie to see what you think)
Ninja Scroll
Akira
Ghost In The Shell
