The word "wholesome" has been ruined by faggots like this guy. Yurifags in general have ruined a lot of things.
I kept looking up this article and found nothing about it from Kotaku or other sites- maybe it's unlisted?im going to say this, how did it get this big? how could anime or otakuism get so fucking big? especially in the west
also I found this. those damn Israelis are ruining my chink cartoons

Wanting to watch little girls have sex with each other is the direct opposite of wholesome.
All the moms are in hentai tho.
An all-ages UK anime con just banned ahegao clothes.

This has raised all sorts of opinions about whether this is appropriate, whether this is oversensitive, or whether this isn't going far enough to prevent children from being exposed to sexual content. It's also apparently caused people to debate whether porn is porn.

Anime and manga aren't widely popular. They're still pretty goddamn niche and their only real window of mainstream popularity was back in the early 00s - and we squandered the opportunity because people treated it as a fad.
The kids these days watch the Western cartoons on TV. What was the last anime to really be popular with kids?
(And God knows I'd take even the ugliest modern cartoon over a lot of the crap the Japs are popping out today.)
Absolutely agree and I don't know how people are getting the impression otherwise. I know a lot of "nerds" and only a handful have ever admitted to being Japanese cartoon fans, aside from maybe the Pokemon games. It's generally mocked and seen as embarrassing, though nowhere near as bad as being a furry. Rick and Morty's cringy fanbase was significantly bigger as I recall as far as cartoon spergs went. Dragonball Z was definitely big in the 2000s though.
From my perspective I think that's a good thing - we really don't need more idiots running around with their arms extended behind their backs - but people who actually like the medium would consider it a wasted opportunity.
That said I did see a dangerhair-looking woman with some Japanese cartoon badges recently - but I don't think many people want to emulate that.
I'm glad they're honest and transparent about where their interests lie unlike KiA, OAG, etc.
Anime is low on the fandom hierarchy right now, but it was a lot higher up in the late 90's and early 2000's. Part of it is the true weeaboo spergs and part of it is because the anime industry in North America was crushed by the coinciding of the "anime bubble" finally bursting alongside the Great Recession of the late 2000's.
Call me optimistic, but I think anime can still make a comeback precisely because we're going too far in the other direction with weeb shaming and I wouldn't be surprised if capeshit ends up being to the 2020's what anime is to the 2010's (something that was super popular in the previous decade but is now shamed heavily) especially since capeshit and "weeb shaming" are both increasingly becoming associated with "woke culture" and your dangerhair/soy bugman types.
Weeb shaming started out with mocking the legit spergs and now it's grown to A-Logging anything connected to anime, and it's bordering on "liking things is for spergs" territory at times.
But these things run in cycles and I wouldn't be surprised if people in the next decade will treat Marvel avatars with the same knee-jerk disdain they have for anime avatars now.
The hatred of furries is the exception to the rule since furry was never popular at any point, even as a fad, and the furry community has always been depraved and unhinged even in the 80's and 90's and have only gotten worse. Furries have always been at the bottom of the nerd hierarchy and likely always will be, and part of that is because furry as a fandom is way too decentralized compared to anime, science fiction, horror, or superheroes.
Keep in mind that manga is actually outselling comic books by a wide margin despite the capeshit fad, while during the heyday of the early 2000's anime fad, traditional comics and graphic novels were outselling manga in most markets.
The superhero/villain craze is all about the films though. I think my cousin is the only person I've ever actually seen read a physical comic book, so print manga selling relatively more doesn't mean that much. Endgame is the highest grossing film in human history and Joker made over a billion dollars; this isn't about "fandom hierarchy" or whatever you're talking about, these are the biggest, most mainstream films in existence. I don't see a Japanese cartoon film ever getting anywhere close to that, even if superhero films eventually fall out of fashion at some point. A more valid comparison to superhero films is Westerns, which were huge in the 1950s and 1960s but then fell from grace in the 1970s and were mocked by Blazing Saddles. Westerns still exist today, but far less than before. The same thing may happen to superheroes at some point, but they won't be replaced by billion-dollar-grossing anime films. The medium just isn't anywhere near popular enough for that, and never was.
Furries aren't at all relevant to this, they're a tiny subculture and are hated because of their associations with sexual depravity.

This is why Scorsese and Coppola have (quite justifiably) criticised the MCU for dominating cinema with formulaic storytelling.
