There's cartoons with action in them but no actual action cartoons with a focus on adventure, animated set pieces, and violence.
Entire genre feels lean/bone dry depending on what you consider, like Madness Combat is definitively an action cartoon but idk is Monkey Wrench or NuDucktales an action cartoon?
And it cant just be that there's no market for action cartoons cuz like John Wick exists which is just as action heavy as the movies of the 80s and 90s and people fucking love John Wick, what gives? Kids not buying enough toys for kids cartoons?

While that is true at the same time a lot of animated projects of the last decade feel super indulgent to their creators like OK KO, Steven Universe and Helluva Boss/Hazbin Hotel all are heavily creator focused to the appeals of Ian James Quartey, Rebecca Sugar and Viviane. You can't only say risk of development. Like Primal for instance and Unicorn Warriors Eternal feel like throwbacks to a whole genre of cartoons that just, don't really show up anymore. I guess there's also Netflix Castlevania but those appear to distance themselves from the term cartoon by calling them "anime" even though thats just the japanese word for cartoon.

Yes and those shows are cheap to produce. Action shows are expensive because actually decent fight sequences are expensive and then the audience expects the rest of the show to at least look decent. Follow the dollar bills anon.

You'd think there'd be more people interested given an entire generation

Video games and the MCU. The best action animators of the last 20 years are cutting their teeth in games not TV. Artists capable of drawing and directing action shows go into feature and advertising storyboards or get promoted into non-drawing jobs and running CG kids shows. Everyone wants action cartoons but canโ€™t get the necessary funding.

There's a subtlety to late 90s-early 00s action/adventure animation like this and like a good amount of anime as well. Feels darker, sharper and more dynamic. The industry doesn't seem to want to let this stuff get produced anymore, and the attitudes of current day animators seems to be more geared to "cutesy" stuff as well. No clue what the curriculum is for western animation schools but they aren't sending their best anymore. Maybe it's cost cutting, maybe it's a culture shift, maybe both. Fun while it lasted, though.

Being fair video games have better monetization models so i dont blame them. You can only get a subscription model and maybe some ads or a flat purchase for television than reoccurring cosmetic purchases and shit like battle passes with retaining retention.

If you want action cartoons you watch anime. It's been that way since the dawn of time. Even "action" cartoons of the 80s 90s and 2000s have shit actual action scenes compared to anime

being fair i dont like a lot of anime because they tend to go full retard with how they animate some shit. like luffy gear five with people chimping out over SOO CLEAAAN HOLY SAKUGA and its like just flashing lights and colors. Like dont get me wrong i love badass explosions and rapid fights but like if i cant tell whats going on youve lost me in an action sequence and a lot of anime falls into the trap of being visual noise without any flow. Like I love dragon ball for that type of shit. super lost me because the chorography and staging is kinda fucking bad

It's mainly two things
The lack of ambition and the lack of a reliable way to make money from it
Everyone just wants to do cartoons about non-action related stuff or don't have a history of doing action. Action shows are also too scary and too complicated to produce. They require skilled workers which are a lot harder to find and recruit especially in the western world.

I've been saying this a lot lately, but the western animation industry can really benefit from doing more animated adaptations; they already found the winning formula with the YA trend and superhero media. You do adaptations for money and then you use the money you made from that to fund original projects. And the west seems to have somewhat gotten the clue, but it's with video game adaptations instead.
The anime industry keeps itself alive by doing this btw

And the west seems to have somewhat gotten the clue, but it's with video game adaptations instead.

The problem is that American "adaptation" mindset is inherently flawed and leads to unsuccessful products that squander the IP they paid for. Japan's industries make adaptations that are largely faithful to their source material, with changes to that source material largely being attempts to elevate the material with the new medium as opposed to outright rewriting the story.

American adaptations where anyone involved has even READ the source material are painfully rare. It is unfortunately much, much more common for hollywood to "adapt" something by buying the rights to the name, telling a room of writers to come up with a story they think fits that name and general premise, and then forcing in a handful of scenes taken from the original just to include in the trailers. For the most dishonest examples you get things like the live action Ghost in the Shell movie, which spent all of this money on CGI in order to make things *look* like GITS... but the script they used was LITERALLY a discarded script that was rejected from the Robocop remake three years earlier which they just chopped up and editted some GITS content and references into and said "good enough".
You can make money off of movies made that dishonestly with a bait and switch, because as long as people don't learn that the movie sucks until after opening weekend they have already made their money. But you can't do a show like that, because people will realize that the show sucks long before it is over and it will flop.

What I'll say about modern action cartoons is they have no staying power. Like Netflix has had a bunch of action cartoons disguised as anime and no one gives a flying fuck about them. They just get sucked into the ether. /co/ doesn't care. r/cartoons don't give a fuck. anime fans don't care. they must just be slop. you'd expect there to be more hidden gems being discovered. but nope.

But there are still more with good choreography to enjoy, way more than cartoons. Also big action directors, like for example Koike Takeshi(the guy that made redline) are still making stuff. He is releasing a new lupin movies in 2 weeks and the previous ones had fantastic choreography. The flashy colors shit seems to be a problem for battle shounen only.

The problem there is the fact that they are streaming shows and they drop in batches.
The netflix action cartoons are not especially bad, some of them are good. Blue Eye Samurai is excellent. But they get so little advertising that most people don't even know they exist, and then they drop onto the platform all at once and its a one and done flash in the pan. Unless it blows up into a big sensation *immediately*, its already missed its chance because there is nothing to drive discussion and keep it int he public consciousness. And the chances of it blowing up to that level of popularity are low, because its in direct competition with everything else that dropped onto streaming within a week of it.

Nothing is given the support it needs to build an audience and grow organically. Its just a constant shotgun of new media in the hopes that something will stick by pure luck.

You make a good point in that these shows only have one shot to make an impression. A number of action cartoons I got into as a kid, i saw as reruns. And they ran for months out of the year. Very hard for a show to find a second chance on streaming services.

One pattern I notice with these modern action cartoons is that they are more "mature", more "violent", but a lot less interesting.
The characters and plots just don't grab me, I've yet to see a really cool villain in modern anything, not just a cartoon and the fight scenes are more "animesque" but rarely feel authentic. Invincible is a great example of the latter. Fights somehow lack tension despite all the gore and violence.

Activists and leftists happened. They infest the entertainment industry and they have no life experience to draw upon so they can't even tell a compelling story. They go straight from their coddled life in college to try to produce things, leading to nearly everything they produce being childish, and full of anime references from Dragon Ball Z and sailor moon.

I personally do not care for flashy shit. It's gay and looks fucking stupid.
Nobody animating fight scenes has ever been in a real fight, so they can't make something that feels believable. This goes for both west and east.
The right balance between flashy martial arts shit and actual fighting is found in cinema (Oldboy being the most mainstream and banal example), but animators don't draw inspiration from cinema. They draw from other animation creating an incestuous relationship where no fight scene ever looks good.

Oh thats easy. Invincible's fights can't have tension because that would require the fights to make sense. We would need a consistent world around Mark such that we can roughly anticipate "If A, then B" and thus recognize what it looks like when Mark is winning vs what it looks like when Mark is losing.
But every fight Mark is in that lasts longer than 10 seconds plays out exactly the same: Mark is explicitly faster and stronger than the last time he fought something that was Viltruminite-tier, and whatever he is fighting now still beats him to a gory pulp with casual ease because he is only JUST barely strong enough to keep up, not strong enough to win, until the last few seconds of the fight where the bad guy just sort of gives up and Mark beats them to death/near death in an uninterrupted fit of rage.
Why is Earth full of random criminals that can punch holes through Viltrumites? Is Earth just extremely OP and an invasion of Earth by every Viltrumite alive at once would fail hilariously because random mafia goons can 1v1 them? No. Whats happening is that, like bad video game balance, everyone Mark fights just automatically scales to his level. This makes the fights very formulaic, and as soon as your brain notices this the fights because *pointless* because the 8 minutes of gory people-pulping violence that happen across the battle has ZERO IMPACT on the outcome of the fight, which will just be "and then Mark gets mad and smashes the guy's head in, despite not being able to hurt him at all 5 minutes ago".

Real fights are boring. Most real fights are over in less than 6 seconds. You can't have both a well choreographed fight and a realistic fight because they are mutually exclusive, real people don't take hits like that without their face becoming burger.

I already told you, balance. Again, cinema (mostly Asian) has achieved it years ago.
Fights that are too stylized are also extremely boring because they have zero ground in reality and therefore lack tension.

I think the perfect combination is to be found in early Dragon Ball and pre Shippuden Naruto, where there was enough hand to hand combat to feel grounded and a mix of flashy powers so neither overwhelms the other. Powerscaling stuff generally ruins this balance later.

You illiterate dumb fuck.
And "borrowing from cinema" part was specifically about the treading the ground of realism in fights and not being boring like GOOD ACTION FILMS DO so it's not about "well ackshyully it does take from cinema" like your worthless dumb ass tried to pull. But you like to ignore context because you're a dumb fuck butthurt your gay little cartoon got insulted.
And no, that doesn't change the fact that the fights in your shitty anime made by fags with no actual combat experience. It's the same goofy wacky shit for underage limp-wristed faggots like yourself.

I think another thing is the writers have no fucking clue how to sell what they want you to buy either or are just retarded and have no idea how things look.

I noticed at the time that for all their talk, when you look at what objectively is actually happening, Mark was at the absolutely least ultimately evenly matched with or slightly stronger than Conquest, and if Eve hadn't interrupted he probably would have just fucking beaten Conquest anyway beause IIRC at that point he had the advantage was was starting to dogwalk him until she interfered and then accomplished basically nothing because her "skin him" laser did dick fuck all and Mark just went right back to beating the fuck out of him like he was before she'd showed up.

>arent cgi cartoons more expensive than animation?
No. Benefit of CGI is that the most time-consuming part is modeling and rigging the characters but once that part is done, animation is a breeze compared to traditional style. In traditional animation you draw the same character hundreds if not thousands of times. It doesn't matter how good you as an artist, its still going to take a long time. And its the time requirement which makes traditional style more expensive to make.

Getting rid of toonami, anime, and most importantly action blocks throughout the later half of the 00s. Western action animation was having a breakthrough because there was a lot of interest. Once the primary source of interest ceased to exist it fizzled out.

Ehh, I don't think animation should be purely aiming to emulate real life fights, there's nothing wrong with some spectacle, the issue is when the spectacle covers up the actual animation.
Seeing two light trails clashing and flying all over the screen isn't impressive or interesting, there needs to be focus on how the characters move during the fight, which requires a lot more time, effort, and skill.
Honestly, I remember when stick fights were super big and popular, I was kind of hoping they'd end up having more influence on western action shows, but it's a lot harder to animate an actual person than it is to animate a stick figure, so it's understandable that you can't really emulate a lot of that super well-done choreography and fast-paced action in "real" television animation.

Maybe they shouldn't be completely realistic, but they at least should at least feel somewhat like it. Look, what I'm trying to say is that most fight scenes I see nowadays are overly choreographed glorified dance scenes. They're not chaotic, they're not conveying rage or hatred between the opponents. The fights are supposed to be messy and dangerous. Instead they feel like they follow a script (which they do, but it shouldn't be this obvious). You can have a little bit of flashiness, but for me at least most of the time it's very distracting.

You'll notice that your example is pre-streaming. Anime and action cartoons could co-exist when most people still watched television and anime was rare and hard to come by for the majority of audiences (most people didn't torrent).
Action cartoons died off as anime became easily accessible even to normies, because the only thing preventing it from pushing cartoons out of the space before was scarcity.

Probably a bit of column A, bit of column B. Good quality action cartoons stopped being made, but once people had shonen anime to compare against, why would you (as a studio) want to try to compete with that when you could spend the same amount of money making something else instead? Importing battle anime was much cheaper than producing shows that tried to scratch the same itch yourself

People talks about how anime fights are flashy and lack impact but the one thing anime fights have is music. Plenty of awful anime fights become iconic for the cool music. For example, I don't remember a single track from Invincible. It's boring. Meanwhile "Ultimate Battle", "The Power to resist", "Clash of Gods" and others turned the terrible art and animation of the tournament of power of Dragon Ball Super into a worldwide success.

To sum it all up, I don't care, you can't show me your gay Wing Chun shit and expect to be taken seriously.
Fuck it, I hate being the "bring up Star Wars" type, but at this point it's warranted. Lightsaber fights in the original trilogy are better than the flashy weightless shit of prequels and sequels specifically because they feel a lot more real, therefore the tension is more real. You believe they could do serious damage.
It's okay if you want to appeal to children and manchildren, but don't use it as an example of something close to being real.
It doesn't have to be "exactly like real life", but it has to be somewhat close to it. It's why John Wick shit will always be certified reddit bait.
I would prefer if the punches thrown at least feel like they can damage organs and bones rather than if they look like "cool" to a 15-year old but don't really feel like they have any serious impact.
I would prefer if there was no wasted stupid movement to show off how "badass" your character is, it's fucking stupid anyway.
I would prefer if it felt like opponents want to tear others throats out rather than looking like one of those martial arts demonstration videos on Youtube.

You are right that anime OST's carry a lot of weight in fights, but thats actually part of a larger phenomenon. Yes, basically no cartoon in the last 20 years has had a memorable track in its show that was not some hipster bullshit played on a ukulele, but even ignoring the quality of the songs in isolation, the sound design in anime sells action and weight like nothing else.

Like, this is from a show about *tracking down tasty food*.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCcvSGKpycg
The ost synching up to the track and then the strings come in to build up tension is great, but the audio design of the hit sells both the power of the blow AND how solid the defense must be to block it.
When was the last time you can remember *hearing* how powerful something was in western animation? If you can't thats probably a good reason why people don't think that action cartoons convey action well: they ignore the audio half of the medium.

The original point was that fight scenes are better when they're grounded in reality even if not 100% realistic. Kung fu shit that's detached from reality is boring, I don't care if children and manchildren find it cool.

Since we're talking about music, I want to bring up dialogue.
Speaking of western cartoons only, I think Superman vs Darkseid rivalry in DCAU was peak for this
>Had I known one human's death would pain you so, I would have killed more. And kill more I shall. Carry that agony with you to oblivion, Superman
>Darkseid: You really are a glutton for punishment. Time and again I've beaten you, humbled you. What makes you think today's outcome will be any different?
>Superman: Because this time, I won't stop until you're just a greasy smear on my fist. Let's go.
We rarely get hero vs villain dialogue that reeks of pure hatred and trying to rub salt into each other's wounds in the most savage ways possible. I don't know why, it's based and we need more of this.

I have no respect whatsoever for ninnies that WANT creators to make shows For The Demographics instead of making "this is the story I want to tell" shows/movies.

Make a show that tells the story you want to tell. _MAYBE_ tweak your story arc a little if you see people want more of a particular thing that you don't mind nudging more into the spotlight, but that's a big maybe.

IMO that's not exclusive to action cartoons or cartoons in general.
Horror movies are very guilty of this. A lot of the time the horror soundtracks just sound the same and blend together. Like pretty much saying
>here's your standard droning for a tense scene, that's enough effort for today
I remember laughing out loud when Sinister had very generic soundtrack for the entirety of the movie and then used fucking Boards of Canada for its end titles. Like damn, where have you been with that sound for the rest of the damn movie. Would've made the movie a bit more interesting and creepy.

Video Games.

There's a lot of factors but mostly video games. Why make a cartoon that can encourage kids to buy merch when you can skip the middle man and sell a game? Why fund an entire season of a show crossing your fingers that it'll find the right balance of storytelling and action to build a fanbase all in the hopes the fanbase will turn around and buy things? Just skip to making a game. It prints money.

Shounen is built on an otaku merch market that doesn't exist (at least not to a comparably reliable extent) in America. The merch market is partly made possible by the very different approach to comics, which remains a far more viable medium in Japan because they made different decisions long ago, favoring cheap anthologies that allowed new properties to piggyback on established ones, consistently paying it forward to even newer properties. US publishers moved away from anthologies (it seemed sensible at the time) and eventually the comic market dried up until it's mostly well-established properties that stay afloat. It's complicated but... yeah, we can't really replicate what shounen does, because we don't have the culture of going out and buying merch for the shounen.

We get video games.

It helps that anime music is kind of an industry all its own.
Not many people are going to listen to cartoon music outside of the context of the cartoon itself, while you could feasibly imagine a DJ at a club mixing anime music into their EDM set or something.

There's a difference between making a show and making a show that specifically and only is your own personal wankfest.

Yes, and making a show like that from scratch in the US would be a much bigger gamble than making it in Japan. We reap some of the benefits of Japan's otaku merch market. But you couldn't make Attack on Titan in the US, not because we lack the writers or anything, but because the show would be in competition with video games and there would be far less a guarantee for making some money back through sales of models, shirts, etc.
We reap the benefits of the infrastructure they've built over decades. We do not have comparable infrastructure. We have Disneyland instead. Woo us.

Samurai Jack was hugely indulgent to Genndy, and was great. Hell, a ton of classics were hugely indulgent.
Trying to make a crowd pleaser instead of the story you want to tell gets you slop.
Sometimes the story you want to tell is also slop.
Make a lot of shows/books/movies. Most will be poor, some will be good, a handful will be great.
We're not currently making a lot of cartoons. The "great" ones show up far less often because the industry is shrinking as we watch. Taking chances on new things doesn't vibe well with our current "The Arrow Must Go Up At All Times To Please The Stockholders" way of doing things. So we get safe reboots and crap.

The issue is writers.
Modern action shows feel so bland that people forget they exist. They can try to edge it up with gore, sex, swearing but it's very superficial.
Look at Devil May Cry. It barely feels like a part of the series. The games kept the horror trappings of Resident Evil even at their most lighthearted. Netflix series is a generic action cartoon. Closer to Donte at least in spirit with its tone, focus on politics and characters swearing like sailors than it is to gothic feel of the proper DMC games.
Or hell, Caped Crusader. Promised to be "BTAS but adult", ended up being one of the most boring Batman cartoons out there.

Still waiting for you to name that 3D movie that almost destroyed Disney. Traditional animation is so easy and cheap that they had to use primitive 90's 3D programs to do the antelope scene because it was too expensive and time consuming to do by hand.

Dumb /co/ trannies boasting about doing their own shows any day now but then trying to say that animating from reference live reels and drawing the same character 240 times for a 10 second motion is easier and less time consuming than the actress just motion capping the movement in one afternoon and 3D animator only having to worry about fixing errors like armpits or the dress clipping through. Fucking retards.

This fight is indeed very realistic between 2 old men running out of air compared to say 2 young adults or high schoolers that try to run a lot more.

Here's a semi realistic fight that combines both what you posted and a little style. Let me know what do you think of it. Personally it's very 2D perspective wise, but that makes it much easier to read just like stick figure fights.

Eh, boxing/wrestling parts are decent enough, Rolling and jumping around with karate kicks not so much, way too goofy and over-the-top for me. And some things are just stupid even for being stylized (you shouldn't put a guy twice your size and thrice your muscle in a chokehold)
It does convey opponents being injured/tired fairly decently so points for that from me.
So I'd say 50/50.

>It's just cheaper.
But its not. When its more time-consuming, it is automatically more expensive. To make a full length traditionally animated film within deadline of 1-2 years you need an entire army of animators to do it on time. Doesn't matter how minimum wage they're paid, thats still a lot of people working. 3D animator is easier to animate, therefore its less time-consuming overall, therefore you have to pay less monthly wages to animators.

In both methods you have real life actors acting the scenes, difference is in 2D they act as reference clips for the animators to create more human movement for their characters. In 3D they use motion cap so the actor does 80% of the animation work without the animator needing to lift a finger.
>>149107855
>Dragon Ball Super Broly had a budget of $8.5 million
Dragon Ball Super Broly also had mediocre animation 90% of its length like a lot of talking head scenes. They were cutting corners in quality because keeping top quality throughout the movie would've been too expensive.
Why do you think anime shows have a lot of episodes where characters just talk and do fuck all else? Is it because the writer really wanted to convey his deep story to you? No, its because the studio has to stretch its budget between many episodes, so you're going to get filler episodes of characters sitting around with only their mouths moving, talking a novel to the screen.

Those "deep" episodes where animu faces talk about the meaning of existence and their feelings? They're not deep at all, those episodes are there to save money. The animator can do multiple scenes of mouths moving in 2 repeated frames a week. The moment those characters start moving around, opening windows doing dishes, making food or smoking cigarettes while talking it becomes more time-consuming.

See, retard is once again refusing to argue in good faith. The exact wording I used was
>The right balance between flashy martial arts shit and actual fighting
I've said the fight scene from Oldboy is flashy and over the top, but it's heavily mitigated by the fact that there's still enough of moves that could realistically look like they may be thrown in a fight and the fact that characters are visibly injured and tired because it's very clearly not a normal fight and a fight to the death.
Cowboy Bebop fight scenes are straight up fantasy fights with no ground in reality whatsoever. Borderline wuxia shit.
>shill
Retard thinks bringing up the most normie Asian movie imaginable with the fight scene imitated by numerous other movies and shows (Hell, even Raid, another Asian movie every single normalfag has ever heard of, did a homage to it) is "shilling", lmao

Question: what happens when the characters have superpowers, like being able to fly and shoot laser beams at each other, not to mention other, more intricate abilities? What happens when the two combatants are something other than average sized normal humans somewhere in the same weight class?
Are they allowed to have fight scenes, or are they immediately disqualified?

You think the only valid fights are those between two normal people so it can be as realistic as possible (despite the fact that IRL fights involve people awkwardly kicking and pushing each other until someone gets stabbed or punched in the jaw once and then it's over)?

I hate magic and superpowers, regardless. At best I can tolerate it if it's something low-key like Ivan Drago vs Rocky where one is explicitly a super-soldier and the other may as well be a superhuman. Otherwise it's how you get more stupid girl power trash because superpowers mean everybody could be a fighter.

Why are people arguing over realistic fights? The infamous Oldboy fight was not realistic. Realistic fights look boring as fuck. Best animated fights take inspiration from kung fu films which are also not realistic.

Sometimes shit goes in reverse and kung fu films take inspiration from comics and animation: https://youtu.be/Taq67POlvWU?si=6wSiQW3AkzXk6iJW

>Again, not what I said
Yet you continuously demonstrate that by admonishing anything that isn't just a brawl between two normal people. The beauty of fiction is that it allows us to witness unrealistic scenarios that could never occur in real life. Yes, part of that is showing a lithe woman take down men thrice her size, but another part is showing individuals with extraordinary and supernatural abilities weave them into a dynamic and bombastic duel.
If you don't like the more flowy and dance-like approach of Wuxia, that's fine, it's not for everyone. But to completely dismiss the very idea of a fight involving explicit special abilities is downright ignorant and shows very poor understanding of the importance of fight choreography in fiction, animated or not.

Context cannot be ignored. There is room for both drawn-out bloody boxing duels and over the top weeb dance fighting. It all depends on the overall mood and style present in each individual work.
Again, it's fine to have preferences, but they're just that: preferences. There is no one golden ruleset when it comes to fighting in fiction.

DBZ fighting is ironically often worse than DB fighting scenes, because when dudes are just floating in the air, a lot of gravity of the fighting is also lost. Superman flying around isn't as interesting to look at as Spider-Man parkouring around or Hulk jumping and crashing into stuff. On the other end of the scale are the super down-to-earth 95% realistic fights like this one:
https://youtu.be/JOBTFfHJjV8?si=nP5eZRQwb4NpGNKh

But those don't really fit action movies as well either, they're more of a period piece/drama movie type of fighting scenes.

I agree with that, I think it takes a lot of the impact out of it. That being said, it all depends on the execution. I generally enjoyed the fights in One Punch Man and Mob Psycho, because even though they involve superpowered characters that defy gravity, I find that they managed to preserve the feeling of impact which is very important.
This is something that is missing a lot in western cartoons and I'm not sure how one would go about correcting that.

>>149108528
>Not like any of us has any impact on the world or fiction
I think that's unfair to say. I think we all have some potential of putting our ideas out there in some form which could end up influencing someone down the line. Myself, I've been practicing my drawing skills and learning how to depict fighting in a satisfying way. I think what's important is having the spark for it.

Yeah but if you watch the fight scenes of One Punch Man you will notice they spend surprisingly little time on the air fighting each other, not counting flying monsters like Mosquito Girl of course. Saitama vs one-eyed alien dude was mostly the fighting starting from the ground, the alien punching Saitama so he goes flying, then the alien following him, punching him through more walls and obstacles. Even whenever Saitama fights back its usually on the ground or he launches himself from the ground so its more of a jump than him floating around.

Flight is the kind of superpower that everyone wants but is ultimately boring to watch. Which is why One Punch Man mostly uses big and long jumps more than people just endlessly floating in the air.

Yeah, that's what I meant when I referred to execution. Even the best parts of DBZ fights involve the characters touching the ground more often than not.
Perhaps aerial fights would be better if they were less just regular martial arts but in midair, and more like dogfights between fighter jets, flying at high speeds and circling each other while trying to find an opening.

Yes punches and kick that make no sense and that wouldn't work irl you retard(it's so obvious you've never fought irl).

Then it's an awful example since it has none of "actual fighting" bit. Only flashy garbage.

Nope it isn't since it has 20-30 guys attacking the same guy. That's even less realistic than anything in CB. If you disagree, you are a subhuman.

Btw your gay anime was written by a woman which explains a lot.

So you agree that you 1st post itt was garbage by giving such a shit example like Oldboy you absolute retard?
>has fuckall to do with any kind of realism.
Then why did you use oldboy as an example when it has nothing to do with realism?
>was written by a woman

Women love edgy shit like serial killers, rape, psychopaths, genuinely depraved shit.
If we had adult cartoons like that, maybe I'd have a lot less problem with shit aimed at females.
But those cartoons aimed at girls are the exact same safe and saccharine tumblr shit we've gotten in the 10s or more adult stuff AKA "ugh, being an adult is HARD" "relatable crap and cringy comedies.

I won in this argument because I actually provided arguments for why the fights in Oldboy suck. Arguments that you've ignored. Keep coping like a little bitch.

Imagine being this retarded. The comparison with anime only has a place after you've given reasons for oldboy having a place in the discussion.

>So no arguments whatsoever
Are you blind you absolute retard? I will repeat myself. None of the punches feel real or have any weight. The action is garbage. It has nothing to do with a real fight.
>>n-n-no weight because I said so
Are you trolling at this point? Rewtach the fucking movie you absolute subhuman. Everyone can tell that there is no weight behind the punches and that is feels almost fantasy with how retarded everyone acts. Keep ignoring the arguments that prove your movie is a pile of dogshit.

No, you haven't. You've only ignored them because they've exposed as a retarded subhuman and a slop consumer. Your argument was that they were "flashy but also had some realism" which has been debunked because they have 0 realism they are just flashy garbage with no weight. Kill yourself.

What argument you absolute retard? You have been countered again and again and then you ran away and hid behind your projection. Now you are projecting what happened to your poor retarded mother. I am asking you again? Can you defend your slop gook movie? No, then shut the fuck up, you brown subhuman.
