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.

I remember first watching this show and loving it. Story, jokes, setting, characters all hit right. Over time I've come to gradually like R&M less and less. I think it's a show that came into existence at the right place and right time but has overstayed its welcome.

[–] Sidyctism2@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 2 years ago

same, i stopped after S3

[–] 5oap10116@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I stopped watching after S2 mostly because I didn't have access but I'm glad I did because it's solidified in my mind as an amazing show and hasn't been ruined yet. I will continue to believe that. Maybe years down the road I'll watch it with my future crotch goblin

[off topic]

The Venture Brothers is a much funnier show. Watch that.

[–] 50MYT@aussie.zone 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

are these them?

These are they

Brock and helper arguing about the dumbest shit is also so funny every time. Such an epic show.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Brock alone could have carried three seasons.

Pretty much any character's normal day would make a great show.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I still remember the uhh yard sale episode from time to time and giggle

[–] Blaze@sopuli.xyz 32 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I'm surprised there are 11 seasons

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It'll end up like Family Guy. 20 seasons, people only watched 6.

[–] TherapyGary@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 years ago

There are only 7 seasons released rn, and they're currently working on season 8

[–] coyootje@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Over here in NL I've only ever seen like 5 or 6 seasons, I had no idea there were that many already. Are the later seasons any good?

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 17 points 2 years ago

Currently only 7 seasons are out.

[–] toothbrush@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 years ago

They loose a bit in coherence but there are still great episodes, in my opinion.

[–] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I was in Newfoundland months ago and they had only two seasons. Now you're telling me they're up to 6???

[–] humblebun@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As if we haven't had enough

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This series has been with us since 2013. It has begun to feel almost anachronistic.

[–] humblebun@sh.itjust.works -3 points 2 years ago (2 children)
[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

By any objective measure it has been highly successful. Its fans do rather detract from its shine though, many have felt.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 years ago

As with many things, the community makes it worse

Thank you for honesty

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 years ago (4 children)

its a good show, but im afraid it might have died along with justin

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 years ago

Justin didn't die, he just chatted with minors using his Morty voice.

[–] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

I definitely like earlier seasons more but I’m glad he's gone. I like the new variety of voices instead of every side character sounding like Morty doing an impression of someone else.

[–] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

That's what turned me off, aside from cynical humor feeling overly forced.

[–] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago

S7 was the best one yet IMO

[–] KeefChief13@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

12 seasons??? I can't remember an episode past s3.

[–] swag_money@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

tbh i didn't know the show even had 5 seasons

[–] EnderMB@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I want to like Rick and Morty, but I just feel like every season is a blocker on Dan Harmon writing the fucking Community movie we've all been waiting for for over a decade.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

I feel like the last few season got dragged on. It got very weird and uncohesive

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Awesome. This show is a reservoir of good ideas, I'm seldom let down by an episode

[–] 3ntranced@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Same, I don't get the hate in all the comments. Maybe it's misdirected feelings from the fallout of JR or hyper-analyzation, I don't get it.

[–] donescobar@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

This show had zero hate until the fallout and somehow it’s just not good enough for msm. People are hyper sensitive over anything these days.

I thought this show was always running outside the guidelines of modern fragility but I guess it flew too close to the sun.
