HOT TAKE: Cartoons Are 100x Better Than Anime šļø š¤”
Alright, Iām just gonna say it.... anime is so overrated it hurts. Yāall act like itās some profound masterpiece, but itās mostly just the same old junk repackaged. Cartoons are way better, and heres why. Iām breaking it down into points so you can keep up:
Storytelling is weak af: Anime drags EVERYTHING out. Like, Naruto takes 200 episodes to say what Avatar: The Last Airbender does in 20. Cartoons get to the point, have real character growth, and donāt bore you with filler episodes that go nowhere....
Anime fans are cringe: Sorry, but anime watchers are just... ugh. They act like theyāre part of some elite club, obsessing over waifus and screaming about āsub vs dubā like itās a personality trait. Cartoon fans just enjoy their shows without making it their whole identity. Yāall need to chill.
Art style is lazy: Every anime character looks like they came from the same mold big sparkly eyes, spiky hair, samey faces. Cartoons like SpongeBob or Advenure Time have unique vibes that actually stand out. Animeās trying too hard to be āepicā while cartoons just have fun.
Plots are predictable: Animeās all about the same tropes loud protag, edgy rival, pointless love triangle. Cartoons mix it up and take risks. Compare One Pieceās endless pirate fetch quests to Gravity Falls and itās mystery vibes. No contest.
So yeah, animeās just overhyped garbage. If youāre one of those fans who thinks itās the best thing ever, maybe step away from your 1000th episode of One Piece and watch something with actual soul. Drop your thoughts below, but I already know the anime stans are gonna cry about this š
Not every anime is trash though .... just that a lot of anime is trash compared to cartoons
