Tired of this cheap cell shaded animation from Japan

anime movies and tv shows are all lazy 100% digital rush jobs nowadays. What happened to the old 90s style animation that gave us masterpieces like End of Evangelion. That sort of animation made things feel more visceral, auntentic, and real like a real film, it felt like stuff was actually happening to the characters. If EOE was animated like these new Naruto movies or God forbid the new DBZ movies then no one would remember it because you wouldn't feel that deep connection to scenes like Asuka getting killed by the vulture Eva's. It's just sad to me that the final Naruto movie can't get respectable animation like those old school anime movies like Akira which Kishi's artwork draws so much inspiration from. It's just hard for me to accept it as true artwork when the visual art is so commercialized and artificial.

If the studios provided the animators decent payment, maybe the animation wouldn't be as crappy as it is right now.

I see where you are coming from. It's not so much the art and animation, it just feels like the soul has been sucked out of modern anime and manga. Part one Naruto, DBZ, Hunter X Hunter, YYH, etc etc were all amazingly relatable. I miss the 90s too

Digital animation is just as good if not better than cell animation.

Either one can look crappy without enough time and effort.

The real problem is that the animation studio doesn't want to invest the resources to make a quality production.

I don't see much wrong with Naruto I still felt like it had soul up until Kaguya when it kind of got real wacky and rushed but that's jumps fault. It's the animation from how I see it.

I don't even know what cell or digital is wait so is EOE cell shaded? That's the good kind then, modern animation is the bad kind.

I really don't think they care to much, i mean no matter what people have to ***** about they still watch these shows and animated movies. So the show/movies creators don't really care as long as there is money for the kekaku and people who will watch/read their work.

Tf is End of E-something

End of Evangelion is an anime movie from the 90s that was "meant to be" the actual ending of the anime Neon Genesis Evangelion.

OT: I agree. Naruto's anime quality sucks balls. I don't understand how these big names in the anime industry have crap quality. They barely even bump up the quality for important events in the manga.

Animate some mangas your way and then get hired to do the animes you like in the style you like.

Problem solved

End of Evangelion is not a fair example when you consider that it came from one of the most successful anime series in the world. Studio Pierrot is crap, of course they wouldn't match up to Gainax, let alone a Gainax with a movie budget. Not many studios can, actually.

Some Naruto episodes have great quality, look at episode 71 of original series, Akira quality. New movies? Not even close.

The better they make it the better the legacy will be and thus more fans will be won in the future and the series can thus be milked further.

Avatar in general is a homo show for homo children

Homo is slang for gay which is slang for very lame and uncool
