THIS

A lot of people don’t realise that a lot of things that we consider Japanese culture is actually Counter Culture and a rebellion against conservative Japanese culture  
“Kawaii Writing” for example was seen by the older generation as Young Japanese girls acting edgy and was nearly banned untill companies started using it  
Even having dyed hair is heavily tied with being a “delinquent” over there unless if you are a Visual Kei Singer

@Broken Adam  
So that makes it a partially successful rebellion, doesn’t it?

2D and CGI animation should coexist.

@PonyPon  
One could compare it to a lot of counterculture trends in the West
 
There used to be a time where people wanted Ice Cube arrested for “Encouraging violence”, then he appeared on a fucking disney movie

Puff Daddy is a pretty bad producer and sampler, but I don’t think he’s that bad of a rapper.

@Broken Adam  
And if the counterculture becomes the culture (like how America was formed)?

@Hollowfox Jaeger  
Yep, but 2D fans are being just like music fans and pissing themselves over the fact that 3D is continuing to become the new standard,

@Thanotos Omega  
I feel like you have some biases.

@Thanotos Omega  
What?

Allot of 2D artists are on twitter whining non stop about CGI stuff, just like how every main genre of music has fans who throw a bitch fit when a new genre replaces it,

@Thanotos Omega  
CGI has a place, sure, but it shouldn’t be over-saturating the western animation scene.

@Thanotos Omega  
I mean, that’s a pretty normal and daily occurrence, whether if it’s a good or a bad thing that things change.

@Background Pony #86BF  
2D did that for 70 years, i think we can let the new one have it’s time to shine,

@Thanotos Omega  
Perhaps, but that doesn’t excuse CGI for doing the same. Unlike YOU, I think that 3D and 2D animation can co-exist without either being pushed to small corners.

@Background Pony #86BF  
Yeah. There’s no reason for one to supplant the other.

@Background Pony #86BF  
CGI has numerous advantages that make it better overall, especially when adapting things with hyper detailed designs, and lots of fights, it is simply the way of things for the new to displace the old, and instead of being graceful about it people are just spitting insults at their fellow artist’s works,

@Thanotos Omega  
>CGI has its advantages  
Sure like it being easier to make fur and certain lighting effects, but it also has its disadvantages/drawbacks. 2D artists don’t need to worry about their canvas or storyboard papers having a system error, BSOD, or Kernel Panic.

@Thanotos Omega  

 
Sounds like you tbh.

@LightningBolt  
OK Core difference i call out individual points of other writers work, these people are throwing a bitch fit because another medium even exists,
 
side note writing enough lately to actually call myself a writer feels good,

@Thanotos Omega  
I feel like you’re debating about a strawman. I never saw that kind of person before.

@LightningBolt  
Maybe they’re talking about an extreme that they hinge their “argument” on.

@LightningBolt  
it’s mostly two people i follow retweeting every brain dead Lion King 2019 bashing post they can find, it puts it in my face, allot, and has eroded my patience,
