I like how Dot’s outfit brings to mind Sailor Moon but her personality and facial animation are both more like Ryuko from _Kill la Kill,_ while Yakko’s outfit and hairstyle are clearly based on Kamina from _Gurren Lagann_
I love that the Warners Bros basically covered the three most popular anime tropes for this episode. You've got Wakko who embodied the silliness of anime. Yakko who represented the popular Shonen trope and finally their sister Dot. Who played the role of the magical girl anime trope to perfection.
And everything is parodying Gainax/khara/Trigger style: static frame zoom-outs, tall and bold stylized fonts covering screen, digitalized pencil/sketch art with added extra effects, overproduced and breaking the 4th wall cut transitions (Dot transformation pose to her being attacked while retaining said pose), already self-parodying trope of overconfident antagonist who is hugely overpowered and only laughs maniacally while asserting dominance, random/uncalled for lose/tragic death of one of the main characters without any reason or logic behind it, just to shift the mood and emotions. You can't do that by just watching few trailers randomly. You need to be total geek, nerd and weeb to do it perfectly like they did.
same! especially since ironically it was anime that took their job away. and I'd love to see them as iconic anime character's even mocking anime at times seeing how it is the thing that took their job back in 1998, and then at times switching between toon and back to anime again for a comedic effect. lol ah well we waited 22 years what's another 22 lol
I actually wouldn’t mind watching an entire anime with the Animaniacs as the main characters. The animation is very smooth and the characters look amazing. My favorite look is yakkos design.
If that happens though, all the other characters would get the redesigns, and with how the internet reacted to Dot, I’m scared to know what they’d do with some other characters.
....that's what the animanaics are all about! that's why they have the name "maniac" in their name lol. this is who they're supposed to be lol. they're much crazier in their older cartoon. lol. as much as the reboot is nice, it doesn't have all the chaotic rampage as they did in 1998 that made me laugh more
To be fair, the original Animaniacs was done in Japan, and my mom says designs look very anime Animaniacs was actually animated by TMS entertainment. And in Tokyo, Japan.
I thought it was good. My main complaint though is that too many characters got removed who were in the original (like Slappy Squirrel, Chicken Boo, and the pigeons).
@SKULGRYN I remember like 3 scenes that made fun of Trump, but yeah the cyclops one for example was dragged out fairly long. I'm pretty neutral on the political spectrum.
Dot's Bow is very interesting. It's not from Sailor Moon. Kind of Super Sentai-ish but still Magical Girl-ish. It looks like a Bow and Arrow from a female love/plant based Digimon mixed in with Magical Girl/Magical Fantasy High level Archer from like an MMORPG. The gold makes it look like a unique drop from Diablo.
it almost reminded me of the LOZ Bow between the bow of light and the sacred bow if it had more of a flower design and them both having a bit of gold on them lol. not sure what reference beside the beginning that looked like a sailor moon theme lol but beside that not sure what bow they were referencing entirely lol
"You see, Dwayne? You're not dealing with an average Warner anymore! After all these years of training, we, the Warner Siblings, have finally become, the WACKY WARNERS!!!"
...Okay, first off: *Wacky Warner* What is that? What even is that? I'll tell you what that is, it's just some stupid parody passed around by your nut-case executives like it was their own property! Well Let me tell you something Warners, I don't deal in legends. I deal in facts. And here's a fun fact: by the end of this, you all will be crying Like a little *BUN!*
I need a whole series (or anime) of them in this style I really liked wakko design It would be incredible if they created a new series like this so I would definitely watch it and not miss a single episode
My Daughter’s Made Some OC’s Out Of The Anime Version Of The Animaniacs Here’s What She Has So Far: Anime Yakko: Rikao Anime Dot: Mika Anime Wakko: SCP-Mutation 5000
the fact that Yakko's lines were recorded in this episode after Rob Paulsen recovered from throat cancer is one of the most epic things I've seen in my life...I'm shedding tears!
I just realized,Wacko punches with his left hand...But in the next scene,They're clashing with his right. They got the style down to the animation errors XD
Seeing this takes me back to a movie I watched as a child, it was called Wakko's Wish I remember bits and pieces of it, but the nostalgia atill gets me for some reason
I have descriptions of the animaniacs anime personalities. Yakko: dragon ball z personality, dot: sailor moon personality, and wakko: basically jojo’s bizarre adventure.
@thecontentyouwant4314 isn't that a building? Or are we just making up gibberish now? Either way I'd rather be whatever the hell that is than whatever the hell you are.
@@rogerkirby6883correction, he looks like ‘Youth’ Gohan when he masters Super Saiyan with his dad Goku, it’s a pretty common misconception so I can’t blame you, I thought it was Teen Gohan too 😂
