Quote from Takiko
And also, maybe once one views anime, cartoons that were seen as great are now terrible in comparison, although they shouldn't be compared to each other as they can have completely different audiences.
Thats an interesting point, maybe it has to do with how american producers see cartoons as well. If you look at the majority of american cartoons, the core of the target audience are children and teens. The idea that cartoons are viewed by young children after school or on saturday mornings probably shaped how they are designed. Also american cartoons tend to be very episodic in nature which tends to leave a viewer hanging if you are expecting plot and character development as the series goes on.
Just out of curiousity, have anyone seen that show Kappa Mikey? it just started airing on teletoon and looks so stupid, im just wondering if it's actually any good.
