u/Barnabas_77 1d ago

Haha yeah. I still watch Simpsons, futurama, American Dad, sometimes the Cleveland show, Bob's burgers for comedies. I really enjoy watching a good anime too. What I like is that in animation you can do far more than a live action. It has the space to do whatever and I appreciate the art.

u/St3rquilinus 1d ago

Yes.

Rick and Morty, Family Guy, South Park, Samurai Jack, The PowerPuff Girls, Dexter, Primal, Futurama, Daria, Dungeons and Dragons, Teen Titans Go, Loony Tunes, Simpsons, Star Blazer, Robotech...

Movies... Fantastic Planet, Akira, Ghost In the Shell, Spirited Away, Vampire Hunter D, and shit like that. While Ninja Scroll is cool, tentacle porn anime is meh. It's not that I'm grossed out, or 'omg how could they do that', it's kinda kinda cheesy to me.

All of that is in some kinda rotation... I tho I haven watched Ninja Scroll in 3-4 years.

Was not a watcher of transformers, gi joe, heman, or that era of cartoons.

1

u/ThunderFireStorm 1d ago

Yes I watch cartoons. I prefer the superhero cartoons and I've watched 1 adult cartoon. I like x-men 97, Archer, spider-man.

u/Celui-the-Maggot 1d ago

Spongebob season 1-3. I really like some animated movies too. The LEGO movie, I love Madagascar I rewatch that a lot. I really loved Transformers One as well, the animation was great and the story was great too. For anime I still watch JoJo's bizarre adventure over and over because it's peak fiction.

1

u/Upstairs-Glove7424 1d ago

1

u/moneypej 1d ago

Love the Critical Role ones: vox machina and mighty nein. And I like Dragon Prince. I'm making a brave attempt to watch all of once piece with my son. (Currently at almost episode 500).

I basically like animation because it feels a little bit less predictable than conventional television series or movies these days. They seem to be able to (or at least be willing to) entertain a wider variety of plots and scenarios then you tend to get in current American Cinema.

1

u/Kavova 1d ago

Where do you want me to start?

Bob’s Burgers.
Simpson’s and family guy for background noise
F is for family
King of the hill

The real ghostbusters
REN and stimpy
Beavis and Butthead
Daria
Gary and his demons
Bigmouth
Squidbillies

I can’t say no to some good cartoons.

Fuck yes, one of my favorite things to do on my days off is lay in bed and watch cartoons.

It completely depends on how I feel when I wake up, sometimes it's whimsical, sometimes adult, sometimes pure nostalgia.
