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.

I have watched "Mad God" and it was one of the best avan-garde films that I have watched and I am debating writting an essay/review as I had totally different intepretation of the film as the author intended(in my opinion).

I watched this recently and I'd be really interested in reading different interpretations! Amazing film!

I've been watching Lastman and am about halfway through season 1. It's a french animated show directed by Jérémie Périn who also directed Mars Express. I was inspired by watching that film to check out more work by the director. So far it's really fun. They are short 12-13 min episodes with a lot of swag (for lack of a better term). Great direction as expected and genuinely funny too. I think it's an awesome example of how to do lower budget animation that still looks really good.

I am watching Futurama or rather stopped watching at the third episode of this season. Is it just me or has the show taken a dip in the quality?

I feel like something fundamental to the show is missing this season.
