How American Animation Influenced Anime 

Ok course Not just influenced

Nah

We didn’t come full circle recently, been that way since like the late 2000

Funnily enough, Spider-Man is still influencing anime and manga. the creator of MHA has made it no secret that Spider-Man inspired his story. JJK is a bit shadier because it did steal some major plot points from the venom arc. I mean, the bad guy invades the good guys body and once they leave they enter someone close to them to continue wreaking havoc. Venom is represented by the BLACK suit and sukuna is represented by BLACK lines. JJK even did the whole “hero defeats a villain while remaining silent” It’s common for anime to take inspiration from Spider-Man since he kickstarted the idea teenagers can be heroes. Anime has gotten more and more popular but taking inspiration from other anime and old superhero comics has led to a more and more stale experience. Harem and isekai’s anime are usually bland and uninspired. I think it’s for this reason western cartoons have and continue to dominate anime despite the general consensus being that anime is better. Anime should be popular but subconsciously, once you see a few, the others can seem like creative remixes. It’s the reason why Dr stone is considered “fresh”. It does something new. It takes a risk. If more anime took risk and stopped using the same cliche’s then we would see anime stories like bojack horseman and doctor who. Unfortunately, The manga industry hates giving mangaka’s time to let their stories become fleshed out and would rather just cancel them early. all that’s left are the same stories but remixed in a way that they are just barely their own thing. Alas underneath whatever quality the manga has, our brains still feel like we’ve seen it before.

Here are the other studios of the 1940s: Walter Lantz Cartunes (Woody Woodpecker, Andy Panda, Oswald Rabbit) Famous Studios Cartoons (Adaptions of Comic Strips "Popeye" and "Little Lulu", Noveltoons, Screen Songs, Blackie the Sheep, Casper, Buzzy the Crow) Disney Cartoons (Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Cartoon Specials) Screen Gems Cartoons (Color Rhapsodies, Phantasies, Fox and Crow, Scrappy) Hell even People don't talk about the other MGM cartoons like Droopy and Barney Bear when well what your talking about in your comment. Also Little Lulu is definably the inspiration of Anime not Betty Boop

And also TerryToons with Mighty Mouse, Heckle and Jeckle, and Gandy Goose

What are they rewriting?

I used the original Japanese term for the blue bomber

Casshern was also a big influence as well.

Damn ur right, super sayian 😂

Popeye eating spinach is also made influenced for many, many, MANY rare items to heal both HP and SP in many JRPG games apparently 😅

Japan seems to be way more into BD than American comics, at least the few who actually read comics outside their country.

@@neilworms2 naw the father of anime was directly influenced by America.

@@liberalbias4462 America played a role but really since katsuhiro otomo there has been an interested in BD.

There were so many Francophiles before, and also after the WW2 in Japan. That sentiment still lingers, leading to the so called the Paris syndrome for example.

I noticed that one Astro-Boy manga cover has cover art similar to that found on a Donald Duck comic issue.

Walt Disney really is a legend to be forever remembered.

The video never denied the importance of American influence in Japanese animatiom, just that it wasn't the thing that gave it it's potential. Hence why he states if it weren't for America, modern anime and manga would have been different than how they are as we know them. Though they would still exist in one form of another.

Tezuka repeatedly cited the Fleischers as an influence so totally

Yes

Duh

Sort of same with some anime.

Nice to see that you are aware of Scrappy, whose early shorts were written and directed by former Fleischer animator and future Disney writer Dick Humor. Lot of interesting names around, such as its producer Charles B. Mintz whose falling out with Disney over budget inspired Disney to create Mickey Mouse, series co-animator Art Davis went on to become a Looney Tunes animator and substitute director.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Rankin Bass was one of, if not the first studio to outsource their productions to a Japanese studio, dating back to their "New Adventures of Pinocchio" series in 1960. Topcraft replaced Mushi as RB's 2D Animator in 1972, and Topcraft would eventually become... Get this... Studio Ghibli. So the next time you're watching "Twas The Night Before Christmas" or "The Last Unicorn", just know that most of the animators who worked on those went on to work on some of the most influential animated films of all time.

The animated productions and the history? Yes. The company itself? Not so much.

@@KaiserBeamz but at the end of the day anime would not be what it is without american cartoon influence.

Anime is just short for animation in Japanese culture. You should have just said Japanese animation.

@ Eva Palma Yes! There is love for Lum. She the true quoter of "darling". Not even Zero-Two from Darling in the Franxx can match that.

Well feel free to share it. I can only do so much in promoting my own content.

You have heard the news that came a few days ago, right?

@@ibrahimihsan2090 Yes i did, a couple days ago, a big surprise. I hope he faces consequences.

Yeah but the Mickey cartoon made sound cartoons popular

Game theory is reasonable in the field of culture. American animation has been weakening, and Japanese animation is growing stronger and stronger. The American animation market will be completely dominated by foreign culture (subculture).In this case, American animation practitioners are forced to make changes.
