What is the high art of Anime/manga?

>tourist
Newfag retort and reddit behavior (consooooming)

Yuru Yuri, K-on, Non Non Biyori

He was ashamed because everyone knew he was a footfag.

>Literature: Great Gatsby, Don Quixote, The Lord of the Rings
Lmao

>Will we ever get something as profound in this industry
I sure as fuck hope not. Any Forums has enough cancer without attracting the posturing retards from /lit/.

By the way the answer is Evangelion.

>high art
A lot of the things you listed are decent yeah, but none of them have made my heart race jumping out of my chair practically breakdancing and boxing the air uncontrollably from absolute pure hype like I did with Gurren Lagann, or made me more active and hit the gym hard with motivation and drive like Berserk
You can try define art a million different ways but usually it all comes down to what art does to make you feel, its ability to twist your mind and emotions, and there is plenty of anime and manga who do that beautifully regarding many types of thoughts and emotions

OP is baiting but it's actually kinda sad that the medium hasn't produced anything noteworthy that would compare.

Even the best of the best like Ghibli's works, Akira, Cowboy Bebop and Berserk are still very naive compare to what actual masters of a craft can produce.
One could say that music, literature and paintings have had way more time to mature but Film hasn't been around for that long and has prdocuced similar displays of artistry.
Anime is running out of time to prove itself.

This is even worse bait than OP's.

We have the exact same fags here only that they don't even have a basis for their posturing, they're just being elitist about FOTM moe shit.

>high art
>those film and literature picks
Lurk moar, read moar manga, watch moar anime

We're reaching it with the advent of Kinomoto. There was the age of pre-shonen before Fire Punch and the age of post-shonen after Fire Punch

I really hope there arent retards that actually think anime becoming "'high art" is a good thing.
Its entertainment that appeals to average people not gay bourgie retards.

Anime fans can't decide between
>the medium doesn't need high art, it's just entertainment!
()
and
>there is high art, I just won't tell you what it is :^)
()
both are just coping mechanisms.

One of then is af least being honest about it.

read the rules before posting newfag

I know anti intellectualism is the hot shit among Any Forums zoomers right now but something appealing to you personally is something else than something gaining renown among scholars and other extremely skilled artists.

Kek at LOTR. In the age of modernity where Proust, Joyce, Kafka, Woolf, Beckett and Faulkner pushed the boundary of literature, what Tolkien did actually regress it. Here what famed critic, Harold Bloom, have to said about it:
>Tolkien's romance "inflated, over-written, tendentious, and moralistic in the extreme." Bloom concludes: "Whether [Tolkien] is an author for the coming century seems to me open to some doubt.
LOTR has only been recognized as 'high art' (and this is not certain because there still debates by academics) for the past two decades.

No one cares about those guys, they produced nothing entertaining and only live on because testosterone deficient autists read their books to feel smart.

Anime is more valuable than all of those literal whos works.

OP here
This doesn't matter for the point I'm trying to make.
These authors are at least being discussed and recognized.
Anime/manga doesn't even have a Tolkien at the moment.

none of the things you listed are as gokd as peguindrum,madoka or evangelion. they are naruto tier

>popularity and discussion = good
why are gen z fans brains conditioned like this?
