[1183809585] Why is Naruto popular?

ID:lVD1T03d No.14740 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Why is this plotless crap popular? The plot, characters, animation, and voices all suck ass. People often say Naruto is the next big anime. No it isn't. I liked Dragon Ball Z, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh!. I don't like Naruto. I don't care about Naruto and Sasuke having to suck each other's dicks to save the Hokage crystals or whatever the plot is.

[1353036139] c&c moe

No.52793 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
A discussão sobre a evolução histórica de qualidade de Animações japonesa, e por consequencia, também de mangas é complexa e cheia de variaveis. Tentarei tratar aqui de uma forma resumida das principais influências que culminaram no gênero MOE nos anos 2000.

Para facilitar essa discussão irei separar essa tese do assunto principal desse tópico e focar mais no ponto da ascensão e suposta "recessão" dos animes.

Os 3 principais pontos são, começando pelo mais importante:
 
1 e 4 - A falácia de que a qualidade dos animes "em geral" caiu, por culpa do moe.

2 - O paradoxal 'crescimento decadente' da animação japonesa na década de 80 até a revolução da primeira metade da década de 90.

3: O mercado e a produção hoje:

3a - A dinâmica de produção de animes, a quantidade e qualidade de mangas em contraste com a quantidade e qualidade de animes

3b - A decisão econômica das produtoras na escolha de títulos a serem adaptados e de produção de obras originais e seu direcionamento  para os nichos mais lucrativos.

3c - A importância que a crise de 2008 teve na decadência desse processo


O primeiro ponto que quero tratar servirá de introdução e só fará sentido após analisar por completo os pontos 3a-c.

[1148778188] NARUTO IS A FAILURE

Question. If the show is about naruto then why is he such a failure? In fact the show should be called Sasuke because he gets more air time then the rest of these people.
