What on Earth has happen to the World of Anime?
Yes, as you guyz may already have known, I'm a huge anime fan, in fact I had watched anime ever since I could remember. That is what sparks my interest towards Japan culture, Manga, and what inspired me to be an artist when I was small. I remember the good old times like Dragon Ball, Dragon Quest, Doraemon, and the revolutionary Evangelion which pretty much absorbed me into their world. Being an adult now, I would like to share my personal review on the growth of animation from Japan.
Throughout the years, I admit that there were some anime that are good, and some that are bad. But nowadays I felt so unbearably horrified at how things has change in the anime world, and what kind of future will it turn out to be. Personally I think animation is how the manga artists can bring their world and talent into creating a fantasy world which can be shared by millions of people similar to movie directors making movies from novels.
Just how things have change? Just take a look at this Anime Listing for the Winter 2009
Alright, to be fair Qwaser of Stigmata catches my attention, but when I read the summary again..... I was cursing WTF? at the line "He is a Qwaser, who can manipulate iron and draw power from.... BREAST MILK", Seriously.... this show could provide some good laugh, but none will last.I've seen Chu-Bra and Ladies versus Butler and it is painstakingly a pure crappy show, this I can assure you.
Where did all the great anime gone to? Fate Stay Night is perhaps one of the few anime that I remember as it has a really great storyline, however the producers just can't help but milking it more and more even after 4years has passed. This just shows how greedy those Japanese old farts can be in making money. Heroic Age, Evangelion, Gurren Lagann, Death Note, Code Geass and all those great anime can hardly be found nowadays. Perhaps all of the moe-maniacs in the Japan market is doomed as their population will drop more and more each year. What on earth is happening there one could wonder....
Well, maybe some of this show could be surprisingly good comedy-wise, but I no longer has any good expectations from anime as they are progressing backwards.
