On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

Part way through Heavy Metal 2000. It's Ok. Gonna start Justice League Crisis on Infinite Earths pt 2 next. The Wild Robot after that.

This is a good reminder for me that I should get around to watching Heavy Metal 2000 at some point.

What did you think of Justice League Crisis on Infinite Earths pt 1? Personally I thought it was mediocre but I liked the Barry and Iris plotline.

Yeah not great but still entertaining. I like the animation style.

Just finished Jujutsu Kaisen. I honestly don't get the hype. Power scaling is random and changes to be convenient to the plot. The pacing is all over the place. Weird jump cuts. There are some very interesting characters, but I'm not a fan of the execution. I believe the anime was a direct adaptation from the manga, so not the animation studio's fault.

Started Solo Leveling. I'm on ep 5 and it's meh. Not sure if I'll continue.

I'll probably start Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, based on the high praise from reviews.

I'm kind of with you on Jujutsu Kaisen. Really the only reason I watch it is because of the animation quality.
