What's up with the historic revisionism and pretending 2000s were moe/harem hell and not the grounbreaking avant-garde haven it actually was?

Anyone can go to a database site and confirm that most of what was made was moe. That's how retarded you are.

Kids that weren't alive to see it.

It does seem like there was a lot more experimentation going on in the early 00s. Like lots of stuff in totally random, really wild settings and situations that are never really given much of an explanation. It's left for viewer interpretation.

Things seem much more safe and sterile now.

because you can count with your hands the number of "grounbreaking avant-garde" shows released back then.
If anything I can only think of 3

>the grounbreaking avant-garde haven it actually was?
Those were the 90s.

It doesn't seem like the 00s had as many big and internationally famous series coming out as in the 90s. for some reason it seems like the big titles of the 90s were just plain huge everywhere. And a lot of what people consider to be 00s era series were actually 90s shows that were unknown to Americans until the 00s.

Except anime movies, it seems more like the greats are made in the 80s with a few 90s ones around. But not many stand alone anime movies of the 00s, just a lot of tv series tie-ins.

Kek, it makes me laugh so hard when people call literally anything avant garde. Real avant garde is trashy dogshit from the 1960s like John Cage that no one cares about.

You just posted moe though

all the ides are done over and over. all that's left is copycats or ripping off things from western movies or literature that weren't done in anime yet

I often go through databases and ironically enough early 2000s is filled with ero anime.

how much of this hoaxes come from boomers?

I often go through the databases and this is not true

exceptions prove the rule, retard.
the 2000s were trash and objectively worse than every decade prior thanks to ugly digital and otaku pandering to the max, you only like the good memorable stuff that had gotten praise over the years that stand the test of time. same thing will happen with the 2010s.

I hope you have glasses.

japan was an economic superpower til early-90s, everyone wanted to get a piece of that action. disney did most of the theatrical film re-releases.

weird that VHS was not the glorious anime revolution that it was for every other genre.

>And a lot of what people consider to be 00s era series were actually 90s shows that were unknown to Americans until the 00s.

This is probably why people think the 2000s were a high point for anime. Americans were discovering a lot of the best series from the 90s as well as seeing the best of what the 00s had at the same time. So too many people think Trigun, Evangelion, Cowboy Bebop,Tenchi Muyo, Slayers etc were 2000s series.

2000 was a high point for art world-wide but there's no way to mistake that shit for 00's if you were there. 00's was mostly moe garbage with some 90s leftovers.

Personally I like the 00s era for the many Key series and Visual Novel adaptations.

Way more than the typical shonen stuff that every era has. I got tired of shonen after Bleach and never did get into Naruto. But shonen is exhausting and most people only really follow a single title which is the big one of their generation. and they never want to invest themselves into another 200+ episodes of anything like that again. I spent my time following Yu Yu Hakusho and Bleach to the end, and have never really wanted to get back into a huge shonen series like that since.

lucky it wasn't bait and switch inuyasha

I think it does work like that. Most people kind of get tired of the same old in shonen series. 5-10 episode long fights, filler arcs, training arcs, flashback arcs, etc. And they are a mix of burnt out and growing out of it. I thin there is a generational mindset to it too, since people get really into the series that is huge and popular when they are coming along like Naruto or Inuyasha in the early 00s, Bleach in the late 00s, now My Hero Academia. and whatever the hell the next one for the mid-late 2020s is going to be that the MHA and SNK fans will not want to get involved with.

>5-10 episode long fights, filler arcs, training arcs, flashback arcs, etc

It's weird thinking that there was a time when long running hugely popular shonen series was something like Urusei Yatsura. A 100% episodic comedy with no episodes long fights at all or filler arcs at all. And it made it to 180ish episodes and 7 movies. Not battle shonen with charge up energy fights at all.
