Anyone else noticed the huge increase in Anime slop?
I've been watching anime since the early 2000s so i know there's always been slop, but it just seems like almost everything releasing recently is just terrible and lazy.
Even One Punch Man, which I've been waiting years for, is bordering on slop status.

Only recent anime I've enjoyed was Blue Eyed Samurai. I don't expect to ever see the likes of Macross, Ghost in the Shell or Akira again.

Same as it ever was, human memory just exponentially forgets all the rubbish that was around in the past, remembers a few gems from each decade and thinks the past was some superior era that only had good stuff.

Because the industry is running out of ideas and whoever wants to live on this job needs to buy into trends and hypes to survive. There is a reason why anime girlfriends dating series whatever is so popular because it is a working formula

It's pathetic to see adults talking so seriously about anime:steammocking:

I never said anything about the past only having good stuff. I even said there's always been slop.

You might be partially right. But there are so many great manga and manhwa that could be converted over to anime. It also doesn't explain shows like One Punch Man that were just lazily animated.

Blue Eye Samurai is not an anime. It's an American production that was animated by a French studio. And the Japanese supposedly hate it, because it looks nothing like Japan. They say it looks like a mashup of Chinese and Korean culture.

Even if it were an anime, that is the exact type of slop he is talking about. That series is gorgeously animated, but the story and characters are ripped off from a million different IPs, but not in a good way (like inspired), but in a way that is very cut and paste. I saw a half a dozen ripoffs, but others were able to catch some others on top of what I saw. For example, the MC is Jin from Samurai Champloo.

There was also too much over the top, cheesy sex and violence, which is a characteristic of anime slop. When stories and characters are lacking, just go over the top with sex and violence.

Complains about slop while they have a character from one of Akasaka's works as their avatar.

Correlated to the advent of AI slop.

Cartoons were also sort of like this in the 1970s with templates and stock footage. They took shots from a old Krantz-era Rocket Robin Hood villain, dubbed in Spiderman, and viola; it was suddenly a Spiderman villain for Marvel. One of many examples.

Anime, when really well done, is a welcome escape from mass entertainment, which tends to be dumbed down. For example, Psycho Pass was heads and shoulders better than Minority Report, a dumbed down movie that took out all the interesting philosophical questions of the original story.

People also watch anime because in the US, studios decided that Americans didn't like lushly animated 2D style animation anymore and just want to watch crudely drawn, crappily animated adult shows with edgelord humor or 3D movies of talking animals.

Yeah there are a lot of works that need to be exposed further but I think it comes down to that it remains niche and the creators lack industry connections and the lead of anime projects don't want to do their works too. Plus they need to take a gamble with anime adaption as if the creators are niche then they have to borrow debts to make the animes

Absolutely not. This has been a problem for a long time now, to where the most famous director of all time (Miyazaki) complained about it years ago. It's because the industry became overrun by otakus, the Japanese equivalent of Comic Book Guys, who don't want deep storytelling with compelling characters. They just want boobs, cute girls, harem fantasies, etc.

That's merely a part of the overall problem.

On that note, I might point out the same Krantz studio also gave us Fritz the Cat...

I still remember the time when Sword Art Online came out and then for years there was a wave of isekai (and still is to an extent).
They couldn't even be bothered to spend any time on the backstory. Some guy was ill, he died, now he's in another world. No explanation or character development. He runs into a cute girl who becomes his companion, and by episodes 3 or 4 he's run into a few more cute females who all become his companions. And at least 1 of them will be underage, and there will be a scene where he accidentally sees her naked.

Is that the one where the guy is a legit adult pedophile, gets turned into a boy when he gets transported into another world and then gets away with lusting after little girls? Because that's a perfect example of what I mean. Anime has been on a downward slide for a very long time because of this otaku issue. Nothing to do with AI, as someone else said.
