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. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

Rooky:

Duke, the problem isn't if Gracy is better than you at anything. The problem is you care if she's better. Don't you see? It's not Duke versus Gracy, it's Duke versus Duke. The race is with yourself!

I'm sure this has come up in other children's shows, but this is the latest variation I've seen of it and it's always good to hear.

It's very much a children's show, but it's pretty good for some short lighthearted nonsense when you're feeling the need for it. Easily the best part is how they play around with Zozo being a zombie, leading to some absolutely depraved yet somehow still child-friendly gags.

Reminds me a little of some of the ol' Aah! Real Monsters and Invader Zim moments.

I was looking for some goofy episodic shows awhile ago and found my way to Lego City Adventures and it was exactly what I needed.

It's definitely a children's show, but there's enough going on that adults can enjoy it too. Hell, there's even a whole meta-episode poking fun at one of the running gags of one of the characters.

If you'd like an upbeat show to take your mind off things for a little bit, it's worth checking out!

...I'm still not sure what I think of Nocturne, but the art and animation are still a blast to see. Season 2 did help improve on the characters from the first season a bit, so the writing's not bad, but it's still tough following up on the first series.

Curious to read others' thoughts!

Open Source Objects is an object show where teens can create an episode of big production. The target audience are also teens so there aren't many adult volunteers. The pipeline inefficiencies are burning out small number of volunteers that manage the whole project.

I think someone from fediverse would be willing to help out but they haven't heard about the project.
