Do anime characters to anyone else elicit a sort of weird "protective" vibe that Western animated and live action characters just simply don't?

[QUOTE="EzraIsShy76028, post: 29468, member: 205"] I think you are probably correct. Before the 90s characters in Western animation used to look more "pretty," like in the old Disney movies and stuff like that. However, in the 90s they introduced stuff like The Simpsons, Spongebob, Ren & Stimpy, Hey Arnold, etc, which though I don't personally think are bad shows the character designs themselves are pretty ugly. Since the aforementioned shows are comedies them being ugly might actually work in their favor, but still, ugly is ugly, lol. And ah yeah. 3D animation can look good sometimes but a lot of the time it just looks soulless and cheap. Like the Pixar stuff (Finding Nemo and The Incredibles come to mind) usually looks pretty good, but not the generic looking shit that Illumination (Sing and Hop come to mind) and a lot of other companies make. 2D animation usually has a lot more personality. And 2D animation also ages better than 3D animation. The 3D animations made in the 90s which were considered amazing at the time look absolutely horrible today. However 2D animations made as far back as like the 1920s still hold up really well even up till today. [/QUOTE]
