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.

What a brutal dissection. I guess I’ll go in with low expectations.

The article links to a clip of the show on the adultswim youtube channel, and it's about as bad as it sounds.

It's weird. Animation wise nothing would make me think it is an anime, and the dialogue has so many unusual pauses that makes the delivery feel really clunky.

It’s definitely running at a different pace. I’d have to watch the full episode to say for certain.

You have no obligation to watch it.

Just don’t. Not everything produced is worth consuming.

As a Rick and Morty fan (and generally a fan of all kinds of other shows), I’ll take the good with the bad. How else would you grow as a viewer?

“Grow as a viewer” 🤦‍♂️ by watching new things instead of another corporate remake, that is milking a franchise that you already enjoy.

It's not a remake. Near as I can tell it's got a totally original story for the show.
