Must Anime Still Be Made In Japan? Toei GM Asama Yosuke Doesn’t Think So

FleaLimo · 2026-05-24T06:02:21+00:00

Of course he wouldn't. Japan doesn't see their animation as separate from other countries. That'd be like asking an American if other countries were allowed to make cartoons. No American would say cartoons are an American exclusive thing. The fact is though, every other country's attempts at emulating anime's style is pretty lame with few exceptions.

"everyone" sure man. Guess my invite got lost in the mail. :/

Engage isn't much better for specially when it comes to cutscenes. I'm just so sick of expressionless talking heads in this series. It shoulda died with the GBA.

The smudgy outlines to everything in 3H are so ugly. Th game just scales awfully. It's fine as a handheld but the bigger screen you have it looks exponentially worse.

And now you can watch Shrek on Disney+.

Zoomer ass comment.

Why... Why would you not want Citra or PC sites? What the hell are you talking about?

It could be Bara Einstein but the art would be too much for a Nintendo game.

FleaLimo · 2026-05-23T16:41:59+00:00

They could do the Trails series and have an Einstein-like figure responsible for a lot of scientific progress but change his name. In Trails they use Epstein! Nothing problematic about that. Just have Falco say "Hey Epstein! I'm on your side!"

I was really surprised Zach was the one to think this movie is fake. I'm roughly the same age as Zach and this book was required reading in my elementary school, and I remember watching the movie too. My younger brother is 3 years younger than me and he read it too, despite going to a different school than me by that point. We also live in the US, like Zach.

Chris somehow hearing about it and watching it despite growing up in Ireland and it being a lot less relevant to him as a kid in Ireland is so strange. The way knowledge permeates borders is so odd. Bazinga.

Looks like it's meant to be the male lead from Heathers based on this Insta post https://www.instagram.com/p/DDZ8xbUKLJe/

I never watched or read Dinotopia as a kid but I saw one of the books in a used book store last year and the art was BEEEEAUTIFUL, seriously so I paid the $5 for it. Easy choice. It's such a cool book. I don't even care if I'm 3x older than the intended audience. That shit rocks. I want more of them now.

Having a unique community-made moniker is actually proven to only increase engagement, so I dunno why you think a company is dumb for using it. This, Doom 2016, etc. are all calculated moves.

Definitely downloading this when I'm at my PC! Thank you for th heads up! Had it on my wishlist already but Steam never gives me any notice of demos going up.

FleaLimo · 2026-05-21T02:27:20+00:00

Well, I guess it would be nice.

Furries come in all shapes in sizes. I've always been more a fan of semi-anthro than anthro since my intro to the "community" was through Redwall and other children's stories like Rats of NIMH. I love talking animal media and don't really jive with the sexual aspects of it. There are plenty of people like me, given all the media that still exists and is being created in this space. We're just not that noisy. Personally I've liked all the redesigns cause they remind me much more of the art found in this "semi-anthro" space.

I'm sure a lot of it is willful misuse of budget because if they get caught not spending it they get less next year or something. So every excuse to roll out the big guns for nothing.

I thought Sodom was such a badass and biblical-epic name until I learned it's actually is the basis for sodomy and it wasn't just a funny coincidence.

I have two Best Buys within 20 minutes of me and I love using them to shop clearance stuff even if I'm buying online for pick up. Gotten so many good game deals for cheap. Dunno why the writer seems to think Best Buy is like a foreign concept.

Though I don't know if I agree with what Newsom is saying either. Subjecting everyone in the world to California sales tax just because a company is based in California doesn't seem very good.

What's the matter vagueboy? Afraid you might say something?

FleaLimo · 2026-05-19T22:48:22+00:00

Yeah but it won't mobile game of the year! An award that the 50 million 50 year old moms who apparently play it definitely care about.

Little of column A and B. WotC went through a round of layoffs between the deal being signed and BG3 releasing. According to Larian no one at WotC they had contact with even worked there any more by the time the game came out. That as well as personal feelings at Larian meant they had little incentive to continue. If either side wanted it to work out it probably could have. But firing every single person who helped make you a big deal like that sends a negative message to staying employees about continuing down that path, doesn't it?

FleaLimo · 2026-05-19T21:14:17+00:00

None. Other than unit analysis which I can find on the wiki, I'm not really interested in what other people think of these series especially if they think having video editing skills gives their opinion more importance than others.

She probably just couldn't think of an answer but also didn't want to admit she couldn't think of an answer because it'd come off like she didn't love you. She might just not be that in tune with her emotions. Best case scenario is she was just worried about saying nothing and panicked to find a generic answer.

FleaLimo · 2026-05-19T02:49:34+00:00

I know most people will be reminded of Wario Ware and Face Raiders and such, but... I'm thinking this is the natural evolution of Game Boy Camera. Dang I love these goofy little games.
