Weird how there was such a fear of anime that they tried making their westernized version of it.

>>149471505
Was it fear of anime or the idea that nobody would get Sailor Moon because it's from a foreign culture?

>>149471517
That's what I mean. Clearly people knew foreign media wasn't "so foreign" you couldn't be entertained by it, they wouldn't imitate it if that was the case.

I think in cases like sentai, Saban knew white kids wouldn't watch something with dubbed Asian actors.

>>149471534
You mean like how kids didn't watch Godzilla?

>>149471476 (OP)
why does one of them appear to be in a wheelchair?

>>149471539
Godzilla became so important to japanese identity that parents could easily explain to their kids it was a japanese movie.

Anime didn't have that same degree of subtext. I'm sure suits even pointed out the confusion of how anime characters don't even look Asian.

>>149471539
Godzilla had to force in scenes with Raymond Burr to get any American audiences to watch.

I don't think many can fathom just how much tension there was with Japan due to their booming economy and taking over so much of the American market with cars and tech. If you were working in those fields with a US company there's a good chance you might've lost your job due to that, and those were the people who would be parents to the kids in the 90's.
Here's a compilation of TV new stories with the first about the upcoming Sailor Moon launch. There's a lot of loaded phrasing about how Japan has already been dominating electronics and how many cars in the US are now Japanese, and how importing these properties will be a nightmare for American toy companies.
https://youtu.be/PhwVcIR1aQs?si=QxZYdDX-TAPlhN2A
It probably doesn't help that Bandai's first pitch video to US investors was clearly made by an ESL and straight up spoils the reincarnation reveal and how the senshi all die at the end of the first season.

>>149471599
Wasting money to remake the same thing but worse because you think kids won't like the animation is a form of fear, a lack of faith in a product.

>>149471505
Hate more than fear.
Conservative hates japan and anime in general. Just like a lot of ameriqiqes because it has sexualization and dofferent values than protestantcucks.

>>149471539
It's funny, because in the 60's and 70's, while dubs weren't great, they were relatively faithful and kept them notably Japanese, with Japanese names, or at least wouldn't pretend the events weren't in Japan. Not even just toku, but other Japanese kid's films that would be used as low budget television for networks to air.
What happened in the late 80's, there started to be a shift against this. One reason I heard was that dubs of tokusatsu were considered cheap filler, so when there was a push for higher budget original shows in the late 80's it was one of the things networks stopped airing. Godzilla '84's failure in America might be another reason why. Along with growing sentiment against Japan in the 80's because of their booming industry.
Remember, there was a big gap between importing Godzilla Heisei movies between Biollante and the rest, and that's largely due to the '98 American movie pushing them to release them for promotion.

>>149471719
it's because actually having to rewrite stuff costs money. direct translation more or less cuts scriptwriters out of the equation.
Part of it is adapters ultimately have to SELL the product. all the high-minded ideals of integrity fly out the window when broadcasters refuse to buy and air your production. The more money you spend on licensing and translating something, the more incentive you have to water it down so more people will like it and you can recoup your investment. The last thing a TV producer wants is to spend millions adapting a show only to have it tank in the ratings or worse, get rejected by every broadcaster.
back in the 60s broadcasters were more willing to take risks on weird shows because it cost them pennies if something failed. by the 80s though there was so much money in television they couldn't take those risks out. it's why Fox and later the rise of cable was such a big deal; it broke the TV stagnation that had set in for much of the 70s and 80s.

>>149471476 (OP)
Here’s the full pilot they found a couple years ago\ https://youtu.be/uA2VOuqaOnk

>>149471686
Apparently that’s not actually true. That frame is actually from an animated AD that never aired. One of the guys who made it sold the storyboards for it on eBay years ago and explained this whole thing
>In 1992, while producing Conan the Adventurer and X-Men for Graz Entertainment, Meugniot was asked to storyboard, produce and direct animated segments for three Aliens toy commercials, done in support of a new Aliens toyline. The trio of ads were all concerned with a team of space marines defending a space station from an Alien attack. The animation was done by Akom, using the same team that did the Conan titles. However, a new snorkel camera had come to the attention of the commercials' live action producer, allowing him to film the toys with unprecedented clarity, so he decided to use this footage instead of the completed animation in the final cut of the commercials.

>The shown frame captures from finished animation have sparked an internet myth that there was an "Operation Aliens" animated pilot, which doesn't exist.
Technically, there still might be a Operation Aliens pilot out there produced separately from his company that he doesn’t know about, but if it does exist it doesn’t look like that

>>149471786
Is it safe to say that we have a similar stagnation now?

The Halloween Harry cartoon that didn't make it past the planning stage.

>>149471686

>>149471826
Never understood the logic of 80's and 90's companies of making kids stuff based on mature content.

>>149471813
maybe on legacy media platforms because their audience consists of about six retirees. but the internet offers a wider variety of content than mankind has ever been able to experience. The issue now is more one of accessibility; it's so easy to find what you want when you want it that people dig themselves into their own little holes that they never have to come out of, totally isolated from anything else. during the TV era you were stuck with whatever was on which forced you to watch stuff you might not otherwise watch, which allowed you to develop a broader palette.

If I were a TV exec, I would turn the 'channel' into website and a free app you can download onto your phone and computer. stream scheduled programming that anyone can tune into for free, and also have a separate paid service where people can buy whatever series/episode they want to watch whenever they want to.

This is from an eBay estate sale of a former DiC employee (whose name I cannot fucking find) and it TECHNICALLY wasn’t for a Metroid shown, it’s was to be part the Super Mario Bros Power Hour (which you can see in the corner) which was the original concept for The Super Mario Bros Super Show!. In addition to the Mario and Zelda segments of Super Show, Power Hour would also included California Games, Castlevania, Double Dragon, and the previously mentioned Metroid but none of these four ever made it past the concept art stage (although Double Dragon did get it’s own show years later). Anyway here’s the promo images for the other intended segments.

Also, if you’re wondering why they would think Samus was a man, apparently Nintendo rarely gave DiC any info on the plots of their beyond what was already in the manuals and if any of the writers wanted to learn more, they would have to actually beat them themselves and none of them were very good at video games

Anime had already been airing in the US with English dubs for years by this point. Battle of the Planets, Star Blazers...

Basically a lot of those older dubs were done as cheap network filler. When they became tied to toy launches and big product tie-ins, they started getting heavier localization, because more was at stake from different companies.
The idea behind the Sailor Moon localization wasn't to sell the show itself, but the dolls Bandai had an IP they wanted to move (ironically the dolls wouldn't even be the same)

Sailor Moon had a ton of wild fucked up shit happen in it, I really don't understand why people think it's some squeaky-clean show. There's suicide, torture, incest, it's kind of fucked up and Takeuchi actually wanted it to be even MORE fucked up but got stopped by her editors. The "being a magical girl is suffering" thing that Madoka did wasn't actually that notable at all, the only thing it did was condense the story down and push the initial reveal forward to a point where normalfag audiences saw those parts.

>>149472940

The collected edition of Sailor Moon volume three has an interview where Takeuchi talks about how she was stopped by her editors from doing things like killing off the entire cast permanently and how pissed she was that the first season of the show got to kill them off even if it was just temporary.
>Also that's not in the show.
I guess I'll give you that, everything else was though. Especially the torture that was in like every 4 episodes lmao.

>>149473224
>killing off the entire cast permanently and how pissed she was that the first season of the show got to kill them off even if it was just temporary
What logic is this?

>>149471685
The scene where it happened is theorised to be a precursor to the infamous Porygon Incident a few years later. The screen was filled with rapid strobing effects, and hundreds of kids reported feeling ill after seeing it, with some even staying back from school the next day.
It was all brushed off as simply being a psychological reaction to seeing their heroes fucking die in front of them in a brutal manner. Electric Soldier Porygon, on the other hand, was in the altogether tame Pokemon anime, and that episode absolutely did not have any psychologically harrowing scenes. That's what made them pull their heads out of their asses regarding epilepsy.

>>149471476 (OP)
We had a thread for it a while back, but Warp Wilde, a cancelled Disney Afternoon show. we got concept art, but no animation.

>>149472940
because they only have vague childhood memories of the DiC run of episodes which cut most of that out.

>>149473337

>I want to kill off my characters
>No you can't do that, we're going to kill them off in the adaptation anyway though
>Wtf

>>149473282
Naoko didn’t plan on the series running for so long. The idea was to just be a one season thing and then move on.
The live action series basically follows an ending closer to what she wanted. The series ends on the first arc and that’s basically it, the girls have normal lives after being wished back

>>149473402
the manga ran behind the anime. the ending of S1 was written months in advance, Toei didn't think the show would last past one season so they wrote for all the girls to die in the end. it wasn't until towards the end of the season they realised they had a ratings hit on their hands, but by that point they had already written and animated the final episodes and couldn't change them.

>>149473457
Yes and Takeuchi clearly must have asked in advance if she could kill off her characters given the interview. Imagine seeing the anime do the exact thing you were expressly told you couldn't do while working towards writing that exact part. I'd be pissed too.

Would your teenage self even interact with the characters?

>>149472037
I always forget about SD Gundam. Also apparently there was a failed attempt at a western Saint Seiya cartoon called Guardians of the Cosmos.
https://youtu.be/ODTQZfysM9s
I know very little about Saint Seiya but just from perusing the comments under the video it’s not half-bad as an adaptation apparently (but again I have to stress I don’t know that much about SS). Also I should mention this is unrelated to Star Storm, which was another attempt at a western adaptation (but live action that time) by the same company that also never happened
>>149472696
The Library of Congress has a lot of failed pilots hidden in it apparently,

>>149471476 (OP)
There was a scrapped Banjo-Kazooie cartoon. You'd think it'd be a no brainer, with the tone of the games being heavily based on cartoons.

>>149473750
That one never got past the concept art and just kinda fell apart. There is some concept art floating around tho. These were proposed designs by Emilio Lopez

>>149473901
Also by Lopez

>>149473494
it's more likely that they both agreed early on to kill them off, and then as the series went on (before Takeuchi drew the chapter, but after Toei animated the episode) they realised killing them off was a mistake. Toei was too far in to change what they had made but Takeuchi wasn't.

>>149473919
This was Adrian Barrios and Lopez said this was his favorite design

>>149473224
That kill off in the anime was done only because Toei wasn't sure if they will continue the show past the first act, hence the lame ass "resurrection plus mind wipe and they regressed back to how they were type of ending"

But the show got greenlighted to go on so there's not much they could do to change that finale.

>>149473941
Oops, I’m retarded and forgot to actually upload the image. Also, I should mention that this was being made to tie in with Nuts and Bolts HOWEVER the team was explicitly told that it didn’t have to look like the games which was a plus.

>>149471476 (OP)
Guardians of the Cosmos, the attempt at making a Saint Seiya cartoon, this one is understandable since the anime is brutally violent, it would have cost a lot to edit all the blood out.

>>149473104
This does looks like a draft

>>149472115
>would also included California Games, Castlevania, Double Dragon, and the previously mentioned Metroid
That's interesting. Looks like California Games would have been more comedy focused, it would be nice variety to all the other adventure shows. I would have loved to see a non-Captain N version of Castlevania.

I wonder if a Power Hour kind of show could work today with current vidya franchises.

>Minako's parents might as well not exist; I think the one time we saw them in Sailor V, they were just straight copies of Usagi's parents like how much of the SV supporting cast was literally just copies of SM's own

If the toon makers Sailor Moon ever got released would they're be like Porn and Fetish artwork of it like what has happened with the actual Sailor Moon over the years, as I've imagined a while ago an image like this one of Serena/Usagi in the bathroom but with the Toon Makers version of Serena/Usagi (even though she was live-action in the Toon Maker's version and was also named Victoria) while reading an astronomy book?

>>149477257
If you mean why the SM and SV casts are so identical, the real answer is that she's really not that good a writer and simply recycles the same characters with different names just to blow through it.

Is there a reason why the sailor scouts couldn't their powers for personal benefits let alone or fight crime?
>>149477573
If you were in charge of the series how would you handle it.

>>149477573
Heck, sometimes she won't even bother changing the names, like in her Parallel Sailor Moon one-shot where the Sailors are all moms who literally named their daughters after themselves (at least Usagi tried to be clever and named her second girl Kousagi).

I find the existance of the live action Dilbert pilot extremely fascinating but I don't think it will ever see the light of day.
But at least we found the pilots of 50 shows for baby puppet shows.

>>149477621
The original anime more or less did it well enough. The only change I would make is adding a proper Sailor V adaptation instead of brushing Minako's history off after only one episode.

>>149478116
Usagi's parents are straight up named after Naoko's real parents, and while it's mainly an anime thing even in the manga her dad barely appears and it's just her mom after a while.
Even then, there's no mention of them surviving the next 1,000 years like the Senshi do, so she probably just lets them die. Chibiusa doesn't seem to recognize them so they're probably dead.

>>149480396

No, it's like a bad troma movie. Toxie 3 ain't very good compared to the first 2, but it has a charm. 4 is just bad bad.

One joke I do remember that they got wrong and then got right, by accident I'm sure, is the one about the other heroes. Ron Jeremy induces these other lame heroes, but instead pretending they're awesome, he just points out they're lame, which isn't funny. Then they die, which is also not funny. Then they somehow get the joke right when they show Toxie learning about them dieing and he's actually upset, which is funny.
I like troma, but this one just doesn't work for me.

>>149472142

No one, apparently, because they can't find a distributor

No. Their entire existence is solely to protect Usagi.

But the last episode presses the reset button, and they all come back alright with no knowledge of ever having been Sailor Sensei.
At least in the DiC version.

>>149471868
Wasn’t Samus being a chick supposed to be a big reveal at the end of the first game?

>>149481797
You think DiC could actually be assed to get that far? Heck, take too long to beat the game and Samus turns her back to you in shame.

>>149481797
You think a second of research was done by DIC?

>>149472252
Yes, DiC’s version was greatly superior.

80's Troma is fun, but I find everything from the 90's onward too in on the joke. I never got the hype for part 4. But I don't like Gunn's stuff from that era of troma either so maybe I'm weird.

>>149480769
That's the thing- Usagi may be attached to them, but Princess/Neo Queen Serenity may not be.the live action show plays with this idea more- that the girls' current lives are just transitional and their past lives are their "real" selves.

>>149472142
There was a Toxic Crusaders game on the Gameboy and NES.

>>149477257
Codename Sailor V came out first as basically a prototype for Sailor Moon, that's why Usagi and Minako seems like twins, she copy and pasted Usagi from Minako.

>>149481215
Trailer is out. looks weird, but also looks like a troma movie. i'm cautiously optimistic. i'm wondering why elijah wood's character is always seen standing like a flamingo

Sailor V was just a one-shot story, then Sailor Moon was made to expand on it, and then Naoko decided to make a full SV series at the same time as SM.

>>149488068
>full SV series
Is it any good?

>>149472940
All Madoka did was copy Kamen Rider Ryuki.

>>149488715
People fighting for a wish and making a pact with a creature are both concepts older than kamen rider ryuki

>>149488556
Ehh, it's mostly on the level of the anime's filler episodes with Minako getting into goofy Monster-of-the-day antics. Only the last couple of chapters bothers to actually emphasize that this is a prequel to Usagi's story.

Almost certainly a lot less fear and a lot more "We can license this property cheaply but get all of the merchandising money by making our own version of it".

Pretty much. I just get irritated when people assume the Sailor V manga was this crucial part of the franchise when it was really just Naoko having some silly fun between SM chapters.
>Sailor V farts during a monster battle (having eaten too many sweet potatoes for a charity earlier) and tries to save face by saying that she's summoned the toxic fumes of Venus as an attack

The Heisei gap was because American distributors freaked the fuck out at GvKG's premise being "The evil white guys from the future are trying to change history and stop Japan from economically taking over the world and buying entire continents" on top of the scenes where the unmutated Godzilla eats American WW2 soldiers.

>>149472628
This pilot was total absolute fucking ass, it did NOT capture the badass style the game went for in any way.
The Bubsy pilot was unironically better, because even though it was a very by the numbers mediocre "wacky animal guy with attitude does things" cartoon from the 90s, that's at least exactly like the games and every bit as uninspired as them.

>>149473364
This looks way more interesting than every single Disney Afternoon cartoon that came after Goof Troop

>>149472120
I didn't know Klaus Nomi was a dracula. So is the medusa Joey Arias?

>>149471505
>>149471517
There was no "fear of anime" we just didn't think it was cool, and a Westernized Sailor Moon unironically would have done better pre-Toonami airing

Japan through the 80s and literally until the late 90s was seen as a weird place who made shoddy cheap products to jew the American man. There was growing weabooism, but anime fandom was only for outcast adults in trenchcoats and most of it was rooted around martial arts romanticizaion via ninja movies, The Karate Kid, etc, martial arts was more popular than anime as a positive "Japanese thing"

Anime aesthetics were just seen as cheaply animated to the Western eye, used to fluid animation like Disney. Now a bunch of Japs/Weeaboos who obviously are the ones posting ITT asking about the 90s, are gonna tell me I'm wrong despite them being born 1995 at the earliest, but that's how it fucking was, anime wasn't popular to kids before Pokemon

>>149497313
And because I know many of you are too young to know who Klaus Nomi was, he was an alien who came from outer space to save the human race while moonlighting as a singer and pastry chef:

>>149497316
To add on this, before somebody inevitably brings up the Pokemon South Park episode, Pokemon was unique because it WAS that big of a phenomenon when it first came out, it spanned so much shit between media and merch that it literally was everywhere and for about two years, EVERY kid was into it

Combine that with the fact that Pokemon was under attack like most things in general because of lingering Satanic Panic, it is what it is. South Park twisted it to be about Americans being afraid of Japanese brainwashing kids but that was....a joke, in a comedy cartoon poking fun at a big trend and the fact that it was controversial though not for those reasons. Everything from Pokemon to Harry Potter was under fire for "satanism" or "witchcraft" or "demon summoning" since the days of G1 mlp, troll dolls, and dungeons and dragons, this was not new or unique to Pokemon

>>149497316
Oh you're right about it being the impression people had, but I'd say between Hanna Barbara and hasbro toy-cartoons the west didn't have much standing to be criticizing animation quality, especially in the 90s. It was the prevailing impression sure, but I sure as hell don't get how unless people only ever watched shit like Speed Racer and compared it to Disney movies.

>>149497177
If we're sticking to just the shows that premiered after Goof Troop BUT before the 2000s, we had Gargoyles as a top contender. Wilde could have had the benefit of being Disney's first space themed show, there's little to no grounded rules those type have to follow, in addition of being a completely original IP, so even if i turned out by, they wouldn't have to acknowledge it at all, kind of like they do now with The Shnookums & Meat.

But yeah, there was lots of worsely animated US shit, Hannah Barbera being the main perpertrators, from the like 60s-70s, but I think people just accepted that shit was bootleg Disney/Warner anyway, like nobody was passionate about Huckleberry Hound

>>149497665
Oh, this cope
>if it was animated in japan it's anime
No, Transformers was entirely created by Hasbro even if Sunbow animated it. It's more popular in the US and UK than in Japan for that very reason, it was closer to superheroes and G.I. Joe than any anime

As for Voltron and Robotech, mild blips compared to the likes of Transformers, TMNT, MOTU, etc in terms of nostalgia. It existed, it wasn't a huge phenomenon, a few animes like those and Speed Racer had MILD popularity through the decades before Pokemon/Toonami, yes

>"Due to company politics at the time, the pilot was re-written without Stones and re-developed and pitched as a show after a futuristic family.

>>149474912
There are people who will only watch an anime if it has an English dub, and act like that's the only version that exists. Same with video games. Look at the Mother series. So yes, horrifyingly and sadly enough, some people probably would view that as the true Sailor Moon.

>>149499144
Only because she was a temple maiden. She'd still have daddy issues, as all Gen-X females had in Japan. So, she'd still forget herself, when Chads come around.

>>149499395
The original anime is the true Sailor Moon. It's better than the manga and Crystal. The only thing to rival the first anime is the 2000s live action series.

I'm honestly not convinced this is real, I can't remember. Isn't this just an in-show gag from something else? This has a "watchmen kids show" vibe to it.

>>149499574
yes of course it's real. They also gave them windurfer boards

>>149499598
>They also gave them windurfer boards
Because someone was taking the "Sailor" part literally. Queen Beryl was also painted as a space pirate with her own battleship.

>>149499621
that's kino I need to watch that again. I can't remember Beryl.

>>149499574
Anon, not only is it a well known pitch trailer that's been online since 1998(before a lot of posters were born), someone was able to find the entire pilot at the Library of congress and posted it online a few years ago. There's even a cycle from the pitch that made it into the Sailor Moon toyline in America because they had the tooling made up.
>This has a "watchmen kids show" vibe to it.
because this is the type of show it's parodying. The whole idea of the Watchmen parody is how the TMNT cartoon was based off a comic that, while not super gory as more violent comics, has the turtles kill Shredder in issue one. The SATAM Watchmen was what if someone took a mature reader's comic like Watchmen and made it for kids.

>>149497344
And ended up dying of AIDS.

>>149499731
That's what they want you to think.

>>149499701
>1998
Well, I was born, but I wasn't on the internet, so I see how I missed it. Honestly, though, It just seems silly. They actually DID make SATAM cartoons of Rambo and Robocop, so I guess my point is they made dumbed down bullshit for kids out of whatever they could get the rights to, regardless of its original intent. See also: Samurai Pizza Cats, where they literally just rewrote the whole script. Still hyped for the new video game that's getting, btw.

>>149498936
>completely surrounded by Italy and always has been.
You may not technically be Italian, but you are definitely a dago.

>>149492852
I like her because she's flawed,
That said it was a massive narrative commitment only 1 season/ 14 chapters in to basically have the the main couple be committed not just a kid, but to be together for the next thousand years. It basically makes it impossible to even attempt other love interests or drama, because this kind of show isn't going to permanently erase a little girl's existence.

>>149498910
>>149499429
NTA but you are obviously a fucking incel obsessed with "Chads", you should stop projecting your homoerotic fixation with other men on a character that has nothing to do with your pathetic bullshit. Virgins like (You) have no business talking about women or female series at all. Hell, your shitty permavirgin "subculture" didn't even exist in the '90s, we didn't have such losers around back then. Fuck off retard.

>>149497316
Some anime were at least somewhat popular. There were newspaper articles about project Ako and how anime was this extremely cool and sexy thing that adults could watch. Also Slayers and Ranma were somewhat popular but yeah Pokemon and DBZ, which only aired later, changed everything and mindbroke a lot western creators.
>>149497587
We literally have interviews of cartoon creators that said they were no longer needed because of pokemon since the networks realized that it's cheaper to import anime than to make new cartoons.

>>149498960
Idc what Gen says, I've watched the show myself.

>>149497782
>You see it all the time, people call bullshit but I have no idea what people are calling 90s anime then
Any of the high budget ovas? Cyber City Oedo 8, Giant Robo, memories etc. Also most western animation was extremely cheap in the 80s as well.

>>149497596

briefly attempts to try being a lesbian, fails at it, loves dick way too much. Could probably be fuckbuddies with Jupiter, but they both want men too much for it to be more than something to work out frustrations. Very professional and put together, none of the bedroom ever leaves your privacy and no one would ever know what she's into. Not very vocal, but has a sweet soft voice and moan.

comically so. no sense of rythm, ironically, makes strange noises that border on intentionally exaggerated and real, awful at dirty talk. cute at first but she insists she's a love goddess and full of herself, and will not accept critique. Most of her conception of sex seems to come from movies, often porn
>Moon
incredibly clingy too. Will give up putting much effort quickly. Also terrible hygiene that she takes for granted because her transformation beautifies her and removes flaws. She's a screamer, and not a pleasant or erotic one.
>Mars
Will make judgemental critiques. she criticizes you in front of her friends. Would actually work out as a lesbian since she sort of despises men in general, but she doesn't care about sex all that much and finds masturbation to herself or vague androgynous concepts of a lover more. She finds herself attractive enough to masturbate in front of a mirror, but also hated herself for it.

>>149500184
>Jupiter
Very flexible with tastes, really kinky stuff will make her feel dirty, she deals with it even if it means bottling some feelings. Would prefer sweet, gentle lovemaking, but if taught about it she would find she loves it rough, not that she'd ask for it and would be embarrassed. She'll give, but she REALLY loves receiving. And tries, if not masters, dirty talk, she's more flirty and cute than actually vulgar. She'll date a submissive man or soft woman , but in her heart of hearts she's turned off by it and would rather have a dominant man/woman. Attempted lesbianism but didn't last long, and her few pursuits ended up being like Uranus.
>Saturn
about spot on, and can't handle too much without complaining weakly about it. Not that she'd actually stop, she's too submissive to. Might develop some kinky interests but nothing she wants to actually do herself.
>Uranus
Will fuck men but it's more like a competition for her, very rough, where she's daring a man to break her in and try to convert her, and will hate herself in the morning.She wouldn't ever actually submit because her enjoyment comes more from the anger and violence than pleasure. Prefers girls because she likes to dominate herself, especially submissive and inexperienced ones. Into degradation, on both ends.
>Neptune
To many's surprise, while she prefers women, she wouldn't object to a man even if she doesn't care much for them sexually. She will even look at the positives, but politely turn down any future hook-ups. Similar to Mercury in being very professional about her sex life.

>We literally have interviews of cartoon creators that said they were no longer needed because of pokemon since the networks realized that it's cheaper to import anime than to make new cartoons.
which was kinda dumb, because the only networks where this was really a thing was Fox Kids, where Saban took over and filled the last few years with anime(and then 4kids), and Toonami on Cartoon Network
Nick never touched anime for the most part past the 80s, except Dragon Ball Z kai on nicktoons, and that was much later. They decided to make their own in Avatar instead of licensing anything
Disney/ABC avoided it except for Disney XD much later
Kids WB was infamous for Pokemon and YugiOh, but besides Card Captor Sakura they didn't really do anything else long term. That's where Tom Ruegger would've been referring to, but they were still buying American cartoons, just not his stuff.
Toonami basically stopped getting western action shows for the most part, and Turner stopped trying stuff like Swat Kats and Jonny Quest. But Cartoon Network was still doing cartoons

The UPN Blues Brothers got pretty far into production before being cancelled; there's some dispute over how much of it was actually finished but there was at least enough done that at least portions of various episodes were previewed at trade shows.

The Young Astronauts was a mid-season replacement series for CBS about a group of kids that gets stranded in space. The pilot aired on January 25th, 1986 with the second scheduled to air on February 1st. On January 28th, the Challenger broke up seventy-three seconds in its flight. The show and a tie-in comic were cancelled with the remaining episodes never airing and even the pilot is lost media. Oddly enough, you can find reels of some of the dialogue recording sessions on Youtube since those were sold on eBay but almost no artwork from the show still remains.

In the category of stuff that never finished its original run but did eventually come out. Bounty Hamster was cancelled after a lengthy mid-season hiatus and seven out of the twenty-six episodes never actually aired on television.

According to my best friend's brothers, who both married Japanese women (and one moved to Japan), they're not terribly warm and fuzzy.

I can't find the conversation, sadly so I can't recall the exact points they made about their wives but the tranny guy's wife is universally despised because she's a fucking cunt in every way. Like she, a white bitch, accused me of cultural appropriation way back in the day when we were roommates and before she married the tranny. Her reason? I cook with chopsticks. I told her it's cultural appropriASIAN and it's okay since I'm Asian, anyway so she called me a liar. Then I showed her a picture of me, my gook-ass dad and uncle and my very, very Asian gramma and she shut the fuck up about it.
She pulls shit like this all the time not to mention that she's just generally unpleasant to be around. Even her tranny husband acknowledges that most people find her awful and that he's lost several friends over marrying her. No, coming out as trans didn't affect his social circles much. Marrying that cunt did.

>If that was true than no one would watch any tv series since all of them are inferior to disney stuff but we all know that's bullshit.
It is true on some level, 90s anime was still janky and a lot of it that aired like DBZ was from the 80s

Regardless it doesn't matter if Western shows had plenty of jank too, it's about what people thought not what was true. The USA was still very racist and xenophobic.....yes, media tried to change that, yes a lot of 90s celebrities like Kurt GoBang and that whole "alternative" scene were basically proto SJWs, but they didn't reflect the common American citizen or child, we were busy calling everyone n words or faggots and playing Twisted Metal to give a shit about what some blue haired Lesbian was saying on MTV

I personally was someone who got into anime via Sailor Moon PRE Toonami, of course I was a typical 90s boy and would never admit liking such a show, Pokemon was really what broke doors down, after that average kids had no problem liking DBZ and shit, and anecdotally I got super into edgey OVA crap because my parents didn't care about ratings and bought me anything I asked for and I just never said anything about what was actually on those tapes, but I was a young pre teen-teen by then in the 00s, this is post anime acceptance

Oh it's worse than that anon. The Japanese in general don't see cheating as taboo as it is in most places. It's not like they're swingers or anything, and it's not happening in most relationships, but when cheating does happen it's not considered as big a deal. Even in long term relationships. It's almost like an expectation.
If a woman(or man for that matter) feels like they're not entirely satisfied, they'll just cheat if they can with little guilt. It may break a relationship, but it's not as much of a finite end for one as it is elsewhere.
you know why NTR is so popular over there? because it's a fact of life.

>Why is it whenever Americans try their hand at doing their own thing with Japanese IPs the designs are always markedly worse,
Americans in general are less skilled at the arts than most other countries and there are certain things that American culture overemphasizes (humanization, "realism") that always stand counter to creative designs.

>>149524834
