Then why don't artists adopt the art style of retro anime? there is clearly a demand for the market or do the artists prefer the art without soul?
Retro art good new art bad
Asher Miller
Gabriel White
is this a real question? I hope not.
Anthony Morales
sir...you tell me
Chase Cruz
This weird obsession with some romanticized view of 80s and 90s style has really become the equivalent of those people who used to cry under any new pop song about bands like queen
Chase Howard
A bunch of random losers on Any Forums is not an audience.
Jace Reed
Are you stupid? The obsession isn't with retro anime, it's with detailed and hand drawn anime. Artists don't "adopt" that style because it takes longer to produce and costs more money.
Lucas Miller
I’m no nostalgiafag but 90s anime aesthetics had a certain charm about them.
Kevin Garcia
>detailed and hand drawn anime
Nolan Bennett
retro? sign me up.
Zachary Morales
a bunch of netflix cartoons have the "omg retro anime" style if thats what you want

Yea people who make this thread seem to never actually know why they actually like it outside of buzzwords like soul or some other loose term they use
Anthony Mitchell
Deedlit is a cutie
Xavier Flores
There are more potential buyers for recent shit, and many artists want to have a small slice of that bigger pie. Retro artists operate in a niche, but they don't have to slice their pralines.
Hunter Jenkins
William Rogers
Actually looks Japanese. Weird.
Caleb Cox
Maybe it's just huge poofy hair that does it for me.
Elijah Howard
Go to the retro anime board already
Jeremiah Sullivan
They have software that tries to imitate hand drawn style with digital animation now. G Reco had something that changed line thickness.
Leo Rodriguez
Yes, and G-Reco looked great. That being said, it doesn't appear to be used all that frequently or to any great effect outside of select series.
David Clark
Don't reply to your own posts!
John Walker
Megalobox also replicated that style
Jaxson Cruz
by retro you mean 80s and 90s ova? if so, because it's cheaper to make shitty lineart and use a computer to add inbetween frames and instagram filters than making an actual effort for animating something.
Nathan Peterson
>Megalo Box comes out
>almost nobody talks about it when its over
You don't really want "older" style. Fuck off and I don't want your shitty complaints about Megalo box not being old style either. You just want old good new bad shitflinging.
Landon Clark
yes, but it doesn't do it automagically, you still have to move some parameters and that translates in time, in that would mean you have to actually pay an animator for doing that, and that's the last thing producers and investors want.
