Why has Anime ruined my Saturday Morning Cartoons? - Page 2

Shellfox · 06-13-2003, 03:54 PM

Darking duck of mystery
Campoin of right
swoops out of the shadows
Darkwing of the night
some where some villian schemes
but hes out of luck
3 2 1 Darkwing Duck
Where there trouble you call DW
---

And anyone remeber Widge the world watcher?

I like anime its somthing differnet from clean cut american cartoons
I mean people die on the screen instead of off screen
and they swear and the fights in animes are the best around

*That Matt Guy* · 06-13-2003, 04:01 PM

I don't remember Darkwing Duck coming on Saturday mornings, did it?

*Raven* · 06-13-2003, 04:21 PM

darkwing duck seemed to me lie a batman for very little kids
any one else think this

*Deathknight* · 06-13-2003, 05:11 PM

Ah yes the good old days of the 80s, I don't know why anime is so popular among little kids. The only anime I ever liked, Rockman.exe, was ruined by the US dubbers. They turned it into the typical American kiddy cartoon of 2003 with horrible voice actors, name changes that make absolutely no sense, and made all the catch phrases retarded. 'Plug-in Rockman.exe, Transmission!' gets changed to 'Jack-in, Megaman, Power-up!' DAMN YOU AMERICAN DUBBERS.

Man, do you have a mangled hand that makes you type so bad? I don't think it was a Batman for kids, it was more of a parody of crime fighter heroes, including Batman.

to tell the truth I need a new keybourd
this one sucks

How many times do I need to say this? Violence isn't needed in cartoons! All those shows were great, but no one ever died...now put this in perspective of a little kid..what would you rather see (or don't see)? Your favorite character die on screen, or have them die without showing it, or them not die at all so they can actually watch the rest of the series?

Dude, your only lookin' at the Shonen (mainly for boys) anime then.

Anime in Japan is like our Hollywood. You got Sci-Fi, Horror, Action, Comedy, Romance, Childrens, Western, NC-17........ you name it, there's at least 10 anime for it, and thats being REALLY conservitive on the numbers.

Try checking out Fushigi Yuugi, Dirty Pair Flash, Trigun, Chobits, I my me Strawberry Eggs, Those who hunt Elves, X... *thinks* thats pry more than enough to get you started... Theirs always the clasics too, like Robotech, Transformers, Gundam, Lupin, Kirkider, Princess Mononoke (HIGHLY recomended).... Like I said, there's so much more out there than just shonen anime.

Moomintroll · 06-14-2003, 05:07 AM

I am not an anime fan, but I will like a movie if it's good, and there IS good anime there, like Nassica, Valley of the Wind (WATCH IT! NOW! ), Uniqo, Serial Experiments Lain. Anime that actuallyt has a plot and lessons in it, and isn't just about fighting.
The anime thye show now on Saturdays is junk, its not even anime, it's like if someone was to take one really bad cartoon from america (i don't want to offend anyone so i won't give examples)
and took it over to another country and showed it.
when I was a kid in russia, they showed AWFUL american cartoons, cause the bad cartoons were cheaper to buy I guess., and when I came here, I was shocked about how much better the cartoons here were vs the stuff they showed oversees, I think it's thesame thing with the anime they show. And kids watch it cause it's different, just like I watched bad cartoons from US as a kid - cause it was differnet.

Yeah, it was, they had all the best eps on the saturday version like Steelmiator adn the one where Darkwing Sells his soul to Beazabub to get Gozlyns back.

The Turtle Titan · 06-14-2003, 10:51 AM

ok,im kinda tired of people saying there isnt any quality american cartoons now adays...sure there is..TMNT,He-Man,Justice League(yes thats right),Batman Beyond....and i hear if the new GhostBusters comic is a sucess that it may inspire a new cartoon....anime is ok....but it just has ruined my saturday mornings...i mean whats up with Yu-Gi-Oh..in my opinion...its not all that cool,i mean there sooo dramatic..i mean there playing a CARD GAME...jeez.....now before all you YUGiOh fans attack me,its just my opinion and let me remind you that a wise man once said: Opinions are Like Assholes,Everyone Has One.Thank You.

gundam kicks ass

@Turtle Titan

You really liked the power rangers?!
You're kiddin', aren't ya?! - The Power rangers are crap...

*Cascadia* · 06-15-2003, 04:06 PM

All of the '80s shows sure bring back memories. I remember most of them.

Shellfox · 06-15-2003, 04:25 PM

Yet another great show that will never see the light of day again

Bucky O'Hare

Why are they forcing DBZ and Yu-gi-oh down our throught when could be giving us this great show. If for no other reason than to see Dead Eye Duck, the greatest of all fowl chacters

~~Leo656~~ · 06-15-2003, 04:27 PM

Battletoads. heh.

Never actually watched it I just remember the video game was pretty cool.

um I would rather watch dbz than bucky any day

Peanut · 06-15-2003, 06:00 PM

DUDE! Bucky O Haire ruled!
BUCKY O HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIRE! Let's croak us some toads!
I personally think anime is a waste of space. The only show with that type of animation I ever watched was Digimon. Then they turned that into crap. I'd personally rather watch old eps of Bucky O' Haire, TMNT, Ghostbusters, Super Mario Bros., Sonic The Hedgehog, whatever, than any anime, no matter how good the story is or how violent the fights are.

*Dane E5R* · 06-15-2003, 08:03 PM

Blue streak.. Speeds by.. Sonic the Hedgehog!
Too fast.. For the naked eye.. Sonic the Hedgehog!
Sonic, he can really move..
Sonic, he's got an attitude..
Sonic, he's the fastest thing ALIVE!

I can not be the only one that used to watch Mighty Max.. That show kicked. And speaking of kicking.. There's another theme that was awesome, but had no lyrics. And that theme was X-Men..

"dumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdumdum-DUM-DUM-DUM-DUM-DUUUUUUUUM! Dununununununa, Dununununununa, Dununununununa, DUN-NUH!" That was me all kinds of trying to hum it via internet.. Not much success, but hey.

I'm actually a fairly good sized anime fan.. Anime was my thing a few years ago, before it was replaced by wrestling..And wrestling was replaced by TMNT (again). My favorite anime series is Ranma 1/2. Something about that show is magic. I also dig Tenchi Muyo, Sailor Moon, DBZ, Tekkaman Blade II, Gunsmith Cats, Project A-Ko, and much recently, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun and InuYasha. Lupin is fun too. Some of you guys need to check this stuff out. Once you finally accept and get past the kiddy ones you've seen, you'll enjoy yourselves when you get to the really good stuff.
