How many people here genuinely see anime as an artform worth appreciating? Whenever I browse this board, it just feels like a blue version of /e/ and there is very little actual introspection done in terms of the quality of something as a work of art, instead mainly rated in terms of pure entertainment value instead. Very rarely do I ever see anything below the surface, and most threads are just people posting lusty artwork of characters. I guess I am in the wrong place, but it feels like all major places for anime discussion are like this. It makes me sad because Japan is one of the last countries to give 2 shits about traditional animation and making interesting works in that medium, yet the highest level of discussion is which girl you want to lick your penis.
