Why has the west never made an animated series like Cowboy Bebop...

Why has the west never made an animated series like Cowboy Bebop? Or hell even something worse than that but in the same vein of adult animation like Gits sac, Baccano, Space Dandy, Planetes etc. ?

Because studios in the west aren't interested in funding that stuff you dunderhead

Why is that?

No talent

The west doesn’t like sci-fi kino in animation. They only like it in la.

That's unfortunate.

The fact a troon appears makes people here hate it, but depending on how Lazarus ends it could be this. It can either have an ending that ties everything together or have a bullshit ending that ruins everything.

It’s easier to make calarts slop with 0 effort than to make something that actually has some decent character. writing.

It’s basically what Lazarus is. Yes, it’s made by Watanabe with a Japanese studio but it’s being funded and influenced by the west. Thats as close to the west making Bebop as you are ever gonna get because western studios and creators don’t have the talent needed to make this type of content on their own

1. Animation still has a stigma in the west that it’s either for poopfart comedy or children. Something like Bebop is too serious and adult oriented to survive in the west
2. If someone actually did attempt it, they would just be accused of copying Bebop

Dropped it the second a troon showed up. Fuck your woke shit shitlibs.

You mean a serious drama-driven show that happens to be a cartoon? I guess Arcane wasn't too far. Not exactly at the same level of artistic expression, but it was something.

But I imagine economics is the real reason.

Bebop

Too popular to emulate without people immediately writing it off as a Bebop clone. Same reason the west won’t copy stuff like DBZ, the project will be roasted as an imitator immediately and never take off

GitS

Cyberpunk is played out

Baccano

This type of storytelling would be a disaster if presented to western audiences who are used to things being extremely linear. DRRR aired on AS and bombed for this reason

Space Dandy

This was basically just an animation anthology series for Japanese animators. There are too few western animators with a unique style who could fill out a project like this

Yeah sorry bro, closest we ever got to sincere adult drama cartoon that wasn't ashamed of being a cartoon was probably pantheon and maybe infinity train. Both were flawed but clearly ambitious. Or, and I know this sounds insane, but final space. It's a lot like Orville where it probably would have been an unironic sincere science fiction show but that wouldn't have been greenlit.

The Netflix "anime" are almost there but those creators only seem interested in making edgeslop. We'll probably get a good one eventually.

Because all the millennial artists would rather just steal scenes and call them "homages" same thing with Akira. All they wanna make is yuri bait dogshit. Thankfully that faggot shit doesn't sell anymore because the normies have finally woken up and started saying faggot publicly again.

Also Western studios don't give a fuck about the Japs unless they need a studio to outsource to. There's still no word on that Wacky Races Anime by the Pop Team Epic guy.

Because we have live-action for that kind of stuff. Animation is for studios that can’t afford special effects.

east vs west troll threads are cancer and against >>>/global/rules/3 >>>/global/rules/4 >>>/global/rules/10 and >>>Anon Babblerules/1
OP is a faggot.
Fulfill your civic duty to help purge this board of anarchistic, sociopathic, intellectually regressive youtube/reddit/twitter immigrant subhumans like him who are under the delusion that all of Anon Babble (instead of just the designated shitposting playpens like Anon Babble, Anon Babble, Anon Babble, etc.) is a toilet by reporting this thread en masse.
Here's a link so you don't have to scroll up to the top of the page.
sys.Anon Babble.org/co/imgboard.php?mode=report&no=148665628

That's sad.

GR#3 implies OP made this thread to piss people off rather than have a discussion about Anon Babble's animation history via comparison within the medium

GR#4 is no means credible since we aren't going to Anon Babble shitting on them

GR#10 implies there's already multiple anime threads on the catalog which I don't see any

COR#1 implies OP wants to only talk about Cowboy Bebop but the discussion hithertofore your sperg out is mostly about the structure of which animated Cartoons gets made in the west.

NYPA; YWNBAJ faggot.
I'm sorry a cross comparison instead of your daily gooning to preteen disney channel/Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network girls is too much for your assburgers OCD ass can handle.

Don’t have the talent and Hollywood is straight up on autopilot right now. They realized if nobody tries nobody has to. Also the reason why they want to infect anime.

Snowflake libs can't take things they don't like and need their safe spaces

Waaaahhhh a trans person exists and I had to know!

You will NEVER be a woman

here

inb4 a GOOD animated series

beggars can't be choosers

I would think you would support this kinda thing. That troon was basically fucked in the ass so much in prison he became a woman. The bussy does squirt.

Waaaahhhh a trans person exists and I had to know!

I thought you people just wanted to be left alone. Why do you constantly feel the need to tell every single person about it? If I know, then you aren't leaving ME alone.

But enough about retards like who cry and shit themselves over decades old anime having irrelevant one off trannies

Their faces aren't THAT bad, but something about the color palette just doesn't do it for me

Scavengers Reign

I think Atla is and Legend of Korra tried to be.

@148666299 (no (you) for you, cuntnugget)
1. Literally 100% of all east vs west threads are made for the sake of trolling, you disingenuous faggot.
2. Anon Babble is raiding us, not the other way around, retard.
3. These threads are posted at least several times a week, you cancer defending troglodyte.
4. Anime doesn't belong here, dipshit.
You both need, and deserve to be subjected to immediate, involuntary, and indefinite institutionalization for being a pox on this board.
I repeat. Everyone must report the OP as soon as possible and as much as possible for the greater good of this board, and this website.
sys.Anon Babble.org/co/imgboard.php?mode=report&no=148665628

The character barely mentioned she's trans. It was more or less just a way to have a woman who is the patron of the outcasts to have also been in prison with a male main character. That's enough to trigger you?

Mentioning anime makes industryfags mald with anger.

Even if you are right I don't like that you are being a wannabe Jannie

NYPA

More cry
Anon Babblecksucker
YWNBAW
J/a/pan always win

1.

The only who thinks that is you. I know ASD impedes your ability to have a theory of mind, but just because you believe an Anon Babble comparison is a trolling attempt does not mean OP automatically had that intention.

2.

If Anon Babble is raiding us, then cross-link the thread that incited the "Anon Babble raid". Come on… surely a non retard, sincere, Anon can easily conjure up proof that his claim is based in reality, can you not?

3.

Anon Babble!? Has recurring thread topics!?
Is Anon Babble getting raid by Anon Babble for having star wars the clone wars threads?
Is Anon Babble getting raided by Anon Babble because we sometimes have Owl House threads?
The only person who has this opinion is you, tourist.

4.

Cool! This isn't an anime thread and let me tell you—you're obviously a zoom zoom newfaggot if you honestly believe discussing anime as an auxiliary to western cartoons isn't already established convention here.

Open pic related, this screencap exists because we don't get assblasted over segregating the animation medium.
Maybe you will learn to fit in better and not out yourself as someone who doesn't belong on Anon Babble, assburger retard

It's funny especially when the Ojamajofags/Precurefags pop up. They get fucking furious when those guys show up.

I usually just sit back and watch the show.

This thread feels like dead internet theory.

You feel like dead Internet theory

decades old

Lazarus is premiering right now

People aren't talking about what I personally want.

"Must be dead Internet theory"

What a waste of a fucking reply.

Based

gooning

Zoomer slang

Why is any of that necessary? Before he trooned he was already the leader of the homeless camp. It added literally nothing to the story. It was there so he could drop that spicy one liner about how hard being a troon is

I personally disdain it becoming a mainstream since in the past when an anon made that observation he wasn't using it wrong.

Anime does belong here. It's the same as Anon Babble and manufactured the exact same. I've seen a small group of people push for a merger with Anon Babble. Anon Babble and Anon Babble allows Asian media on their boards why can't we?

"but Anon Babble threads would get drowned out"

No, you just gotta try to make actual interesting threads. And besides there's Toonami threads on Saturday and the PPGZ threads. Not to mention I saw a Samurai Pizza Cats thread about a month ago. Stop gatekeeping animation and keeping it separated by nations. We are all the same.

Ohhhh it’s birchydoremipedobrowno, that explains it

Open pic related, this screencap exists because we don't get assblasted over segregating the animation medium.

Not him but we should
Anon Babble is Anon Babble
Anon Babble is Anon Babble
Good fences make for good neighbors
I don't think the OP wanted an actual East vs West thread and this isn't an entirely blatant trojan horse thread but if Anon Babble is to survive it needs to adopt Anon Babble's no tolerance elitism

NOOOOO YOU CANT USE MODERN SLANG YOU CAN ONLY EVER USE SLANG WORDS I RECOGNIZE EVEN THOUGH USING THEM MAKES ME LOOK LIKE AN OUT OF TOUCH RETARD

Go ahead, say fapping for teh epic lulz. I’m sure that will win you lots of internets and mudkips

Who? They probably agree with me. Merge the boards, it would be easier for the mods.

I've seen a small group of people push for a merger with Anon Babble.

Remember when April Fools happened and Anon Babble got shot down first?
Could barely fucking survive sharing the same space with Anon Babble
Anon Babble doesn't want us
Neither should we
Anon Babble FUCKING HATES us

It’s funny that he can’t use his trip anymore since they finally started banning him, but his autistic posting style and reaction image folder make every post he makes super obvious

Try telling Anon Babble that you want a board merge
They will laugh at your face and call you a retard you fucking retard

Which is why we should merge, you two need to get along. You're just too much of a pussy to handle a few Anon Babble fags.

I'm sorry a cross comparison instead of your daily gooning to preteen disney channel/Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network girls is too much for your assburgers OCD ass can handle.

If the thread can't be made on Anon Babble it shouldn't be made on Anon Babble
Double standards faggot

Anon Babble's no tolerance elitism is derived from their moderation practices.
It's not going to happen here unless a janny starts purging Anon Babblenime to match his personal preferences but instead it's currently more focused against webcomics (usually political webcomics) or alternative places to discuss the Anon Babble media.

You're just too much of a pussy to handle a few Anon Babble fags.

few

It's the whole board dumbass
Our Wednesday storytimes will be destroyed if we shared space with Anon Babble
Every thread showing genuine interest in western media would devolve into East vs West shit

I've always had the idea of Anon Babble allowing the discussion of anime before 2005.

desuarchive.org/a/search/username/Birchyfunbags/
this dude reeks of greasy mexispic, hilarious that he barely uses Anon Babble for some reason

I think Hilda could have come close except for the music. However i think the comic might have been inspired by Calvin and Hobbes comics but i might be reading to far in to her and Twig walking on a log over a creek. Hilda was still dark and there were consequences for actions. To me it felt emotional and nostalgic, and you have to understand cultural tastes a bit to appreciate it, but that's just my opinion.

And look what that got us?
Death Battle?
East vs West spam?
Newfags by the dozen who use Anon Babble as a trojan horse field?
Toonami should have stayed dead

Our Wednesday storytimes will be destroyed if we shared space with Anon Babble

Then you better lock in and make the threads interesting.
What a doofus lmao. He couldn't even get that overweight Swiss femcel.

They were already shfting to 3D when that kind of shit became a bit relevant n the west
I mean, it's still possible for them to make something like that by hiring asian animators but that would be tiring

realize that you’re arguing with a tripfag pedolard, you’re not going to get anywhere when his brain got cooked after a recent failed loli thread of his

If you want a board merge it means you hate Anon Babble
Anon Babble benefits nothing

Because Titan A.D. flopped

No I love animation and want it all in one place. It would be beneficial to mods and to the site as a whole. It would make bans and stopping spammers more efficient. Or do what suggests.

and make the threads interesting.

Define interesting Anon Babble threads
Why do you go to this board?

To talk about cartoons duh!
But I wanna talk about Asian cartoons too.

I read a really thread on why decent the Anon Babblemics industry is in the state it currently is and its own competition against managa with out the usual malding sessions.

It's weird. Anon Babble was generally more respectful and courteous towards comics than some of the regular users here.

You can always apply for a janitor position the next time Gutarap needs fresh volunteers.
Until then your vision of a no fun allowed board policy with Anon Babble comparisons will only remain a vision and not an interpreted policy.

No I love animation and want it all in one place

Again, Anon Babble HATES us
Anon Babble OUTNUMBERS us
A thread on obscure western animation that could have a chance to flourish on Anon Babble would lose its chance if it had to compete on Anon Babble

Unironically I have zero idea what the fuck his logic is, he wants a board merge despite screaming that Anon Babble doesn’t give a shit about his moeblob show so he wants to fix this by… merging with Anon Babble??? Despite having to desperately samefag threads on Anon Babble until they get obliterated anyway

It's weird. Anon Babble was generally more respectful and courteous towards comics than some of the regular users here.

THAT WAS US YOU FUCKING IDIOT

Western animation threads would suffer hard
Comic threads would suffer even harder
Annual Usagi Yojimbo threads would be decimated
Our drawthreads would be overwhelmed and assimilated

Gen alpha is the most progressive generation so they don’t wanna talk about that stuff

It's weird. Anon Babble was generally more respectful and courteous towards comics than some of the regular users here.

EXACTLY! which is why we should merge, they'd have more to talk about.

Again, Anon Babble HATES us

Get along.

Anon Babble OUTNUMBERS us

Skill issue, make better threads.

A thread on obscure western animation that could have a chance to flourish on Anon Babble would lose its chance if it had to compete on Anon Babble

False, they would enjoy it and maybe actually talk about it more.

Until then your vision of a no fun allowed

Wanting a Anon Babble that actually likes comics and cartoons is bad

Anon Babble stuff is safe because nobody really cares. these threads only create mind broken anime haters ironically.

False, they would enjoy it and maybe actually talk about it more.

No they fucking won't
You have various Anon Babble rejects going here because "Anon Babble only talks about modern anime"

We want a board that has everything in one place, the original Anon Babble did and everyone got along just fine

But they linked to off the site back then.

So? People here link to catbox all the time.

But my shitty threads will get buried by weeb shit.

Not our problem, make better threads to accommodate to both sides. Gotta adapt.

I love anime but I know if I want to talk about anime, I go to the right board for it

I just wait here for the Toonami threads because all Anon Babble talks about is modern Isekai shit.

We want a board that has everything in one place

By that logic, get rid of Anon Babble and have it assimilate back to Anon Babble even though Showa era mecha anime threads thrive better there
By that logic, have Anon Babble go back to Anon Babble ignoring how Pokemon was so broad and varied it justified getting its own board

No if it was Anon Babble regulars you'd see the usual and predictable "east vs west" whining and "manga>comics" bait but they were a no show then.
Anon Babble users are more respectful because in contrast we had an actual discussion instead of the (You) farming meta you see here.

implying contemporary Anon Babble hates comics and cartoons

Should all be here. It's all the same medium. And this is coming from a big weeb who still uses Anon Babble all the time for the past 11 years.
You'll get some Lucky Star threads and a few others but they're usually taken down quick for some reason.

Yep. Downsize the site, we don't need separate boards for the same subjects and mediums.

No if it was Anon Babble regulars you'd see the usual and predictable "east vs west" whining and "manga>comics" bait but they were a no show then.

If you're talking about the April Fools thread, that was us
Because Anon Babble was literally dead during that time

Birchy should get his wish but every board is just Anon Babble

It was us! Not those weebs.

Not buying it, sounds like you're just making shit up because Anon Babble cares more than the retarded Gen A fags here.

I love this board sometimes. I've missed the threads where people would argue.

implying contemporary Anon Babble hates comics and cartoons

When they want to have "What if non-Anon Babble is Anon Babble" as an excuse to be off-topic it sure fucking screams they hate comics and cartoons and want to talk about anything but them
This board is fucking abysmal in trying to get out of its comfort zone and explore the mediums there is
This is the same shithole that insists comics are all capeshit and that animation mostly amounts to three tv channels for kids

Sounds like you're just scared because western animation doesn't have anything interesting anymore and you don't wanna get buried by Anon Babble fags. Just try harder, stop making the same dog shit threads about the same shows. Take a note out of their book.

desuarchive.org/a/thread/277639301/#277642256
This was literally my post
I've brought up these points multiple times on this board

idk merging the boards would stop tripfags and spammers but there is the problem of Anon Babble stuff getting sidelined by Anon Babble stuff

Take a note out of their book.

Implying Anon Babble are the bastions of originality when it comes to threads

I rarely even make threads for modern shit anyways

How can you prove you posted it anon? I could go on desu and grab a random reply and say it's me. I could've posted that.

Anon Babble is closed by the department of board efficiency

Anon Babblemic lovers goes to Anon Babble instead

recursive shit disturbers don't show up despite Anon Babble supposedly being the source of trolling

discussion is more productive on Anon Babble than Anon Babble

You're technically right… it's because Anon Babble was dead because Anon Babble doesn't hate comics, (You) farmers here went somewhere else.
Anon Babble cares about the medium of sequential art just as much as the refugees did.

Anon Babble cares about the medium of sequential art just as much as the refugees did.

Yep, they would actually talk about obscure cool cartoons and make actual cool art for threads if boards merged. Only ones that would hate it is Gen A fags.

Sometimes by me, sometimes by other's
This was never something the weebs knew and we didn't

You lying fucking liar the thread was typical East vs West bait

Sure buddy and I'm the one who created all those threads.

the thread was typical East vs West bait

t. someone who didn't read the thread.

Doremi: The Irrelevant Show

The point flew over your head
The talking points in that April Fools thread weren't new
They've been brought up before and after on this board
Anon Babble doesn't know magically know more or care about comics more than Anon Babble on average

I was fucking there
It was the same pics spammed from the usual East vs West threads
Mate, it's literally in this thread

Keep telling yourself that. You gotta remember comics and early western cartoons inspired manga and anime.

Mate

"OI BRUV I WUZ DERE IN DE BLEEDIN THREAD"
Leave it to a chav to lecture us about American comics while their country hasn't made a decent cartoon or comic in the last 15 years.

If you think Anon Babble would welcome a thread about Scrooge McDuck influencing Astro Boy, you're a fucking idiot
If you think Anon Babble would have any interest in Winsor McCay, you're delusional
They struggle already talking about Tezuka, Nagai, etc

I think it’d be funny if Anon Babble and Anon Babble got merged because then that means both boards would have to deal with each others schizos, imagine Anon Babble having to deal with Industrycuck or Anon Babble dealing with funnyschizo on a regular basis.

Implying I'm an Aussie

You spend enough time talking to certain people you pick up their habits

They would be open to it.
It would be easier for the mods to pin down at least.

Chav

Aussie

Oh you're Cornish or Welsh aren't you? I know you inbred farmers and miners hate being called "British"

If Anon Babble can barely talk about their ancient industry legends, what the fuck makes you think they'd be open to talk about Anon Babble's?
Think dumbass
Think

No, I'm a Burger

There's a reason why the internet sees us as Chernobyl and syphilis

If we’re Chernobyl and Syphilis then the rest of the internet is Hiroshima immediately after getting nuked combined with every single disease to ever exist.

They'll talk about it if enough people are interested. With a merger some Anon Babble users would be interested to see how Fliescher and Disney inspired early anime.
You're safe, but still a retard.
You should've seen this site in 2012.

Augie Dogie won.

With a merger some Anon Babble users would be interested to see how Fliescher and Disney inspired early anime.

We've talked about that dozens of times already
It's not a secret that Tezuka sent letters to Barks

I go to Anon Babble for non-cape comic discussion these days
An Anon Babble merge would ruin everything

"Cool what do I win?"

They'll talk about it if enough people are interested

They'll be drowned out in favor of talking about the new seasonal isekai

Can we go back to the subject? Also for people that are saying that everyone would make fun of a CB copy, you don’t need to make it a ripoff! You just need to understand why it works and borrow some elements for your series.

Skill issue, gotta lock in and hope enough people will care about your thread.

Birchy why are you trying to sound a generation younger than you actually are

Can we go back to the subject?

No, this is what OP probably wanted anyways
Anyone who wants Anon Babble discussion on Anon Babble hates Anon Babble

If you honestly believe that that thread was ‘a typical east vs. west’ thread then you're a lost cause.
There's no point in trying to attempt to persuade in good faith with someone close-minded on the matter of Anon Babble's treatment of comics and Anon Babble's treatment.

Enjoy pasting pastas with the local (You) farmers about the logistics of comic distribution and the public transit habits to people whom are equally close-minded on why we're getting outcompeted to weeb slop.
You'll be wasting effort with regular shitposters here since unlike Anon Babble, the people here are significantly less likely to have ever purchased comic, nor borrowed a graphic from a library (I'm confident most elementary schools have Bone available, like I did in my middle of nowhere British Columbia coal mining town).

Lol. Toonam is talking about shonen stuff 99% of the time. Guess what, Anon Babble has everal shonen threads. It’s the exact same shit.

Comics these days suck anon, nobody buys them and they're being outsold by Manga.

Can we go back to the subject?

Nobody is stopping you from speaking anon.

Birchy, if that's you
The Astrid Bromure thread could have never lasted on Anon Babble, I hope you know that

The OP was literally the fucking Demon Slayer article

On average Anon Babble is more technologically literate than Anon Babble. That’s the one thing I will give them.

This is like asking why Japan hasn’t made a Looney Tunes series. It’s the East’s series
It’s theirs and they don’t want to have others make it

Comics these days suck anon,

I talk mostly about old stuff
I like talking about obscure media and an Anon Babble merge would make it even harder

Can we go back to the subject?

Too late. The retard whining about Anon Babble and demanding we report OP has already detailed the thread into an intra-board culture discussion.
Blame him.

The fun part about these threads is that Birchypedo actually stops spamming other threads in the catalog because he’s too roped into his “I totally can’t be recognized if I drop my trip” gimmick, peak useful idiot behavior

Prove Anon Babble likes western comics
Prove Anon Babble can respectfully talk about western comic artists and writers by name
None from that April Fools thread because Anon Babble Anons were blatantly there on that day for obvious reasons

Astrid Bromure

Who? See that's why I don't follow modern comics because they have the most forgettable names. Let me guess she's black and fat and gay? What are her powers?
They are. Only person here good with tech is that one anon who making the Murder Drones robot waifu.
Then lock in.
Nobody is stopping you from talking about the subject anon, you're the one replying and prolonging it thus derailing the thread.

But Japan has made plenty of anime that rely on slapstick but with more japanese sensibilities and that’s exactly what I want for cartoon. Not an exact copy of cowboy bebop but rather something that incorporates the writing and directing in a western cartoon

Keep scrolling, you'll see it like I did and since Anon Babble was getting flooding with Anon Babble refugees, it's only natural you'd open a thread with banter with the new arrivals.
I know… imageboard users like taking jabs with each other.
It's not like Anon Babble & Anon Babble doesn't already habitually do this.

Who? See that's why I don't follow modern comics because they have the most forgettable names

French comic about the misadventures of a little rich girl
Not superhero
Not American

The way he keeps saying to lock in explains why he thinks zoomers/gen alpha are some carbon copy of himself, he literally has some personality disorder

Except the talking points have been brought up on Anon Babble before that thread came
There's more proof the people who actually knew their shit were Anon Babble Anons

Birchy, if that's you

Nope been lurking for now. I made like 2 posts for this whole thread.
I seriously didn't know there were autists this passionate about a merger with another board

All comics are capeshit

I hate you

Astrid Bromure is a comic about a girl from France. Imagine Madeline but more wackier. I kinda doubt Anon Babble would warm up to her, or maybe they will.

I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY OP YOU FUCKING FAG

What?
They mostly are, name one successful comic in the past year that outperformed manga.
Fuck off retard you don't associate with us.

It's kinda funny ngl
Reminds me of 2009 with like 2x times the autists

At least there's some light in this thread, she looks cute I guess

Anon Babble users posted an east>west thread during april fools. They hate us

nah only Anon Babble users were ITT

If you honestly believe regular Anon Babble users avoided a thread with an image demon slayer being their own cultural champion you're divorced from reality.

Better yet:
Provide evidence that everyone there was a Anon Babble regular.
Provide evidence that no one there was a manga reader.
Provide evidence that you somehow know the posting history of EVERYONE in that thread like you boldly claim.

Oh wait… you can't, because you're not a moderator and even if you were you can't admit that you did have access to everyones posting history.

Your claim that that thread was 100% made up of Anon Babble posters is by itself asinine (and impossible to substantiate), but also less probable than Anon Babble users browsing their home board's catalog and posting in a new comics thread that's temporarily allowed on Anon Babble.

Is there just like 5 people using this board now? Man the shutdown has brought the worst out in all of you.
