Neo Yokio - the Netflix Anime Created by Jaden Smith - Yes, This is Somehow an Actual Thing

[Trilby]

The main reason the animation is mediocre is because it's made by Studio Deen. Studio Deen shows usually have mediocre and shoddy animation.

Meanwhile, the nicer anime like western shows on Netflix - Voltron and Castlevania - are made by much more professional/passionate studios - Studio Mir (Creators of ATLA and TLK) and Powerhouse Animation/Fredarator Studios respectively.

TL;Dr: Ezra and Jaden couldn't afford a nice animation studio and settled for a mediocre one.

I still miss the Studio Deen of the 80's, that'll never come back.

EDIT:Something like this, or maybe this...
That's the sort of thing Netflix should be doing!

Thompson Twins?

More like Milli Vanilli.

The only Studio Deen show I've seen recently is KonoSuba and that was pretty well animated.

Didn't Gene Simmons' son try to make a manga and heavily plagiarized from other manga? Or am I thinking of someone else?

It should be a crossover with NewNote.

I'm sure if they got paid well they could do it.

Off-topic slightly but that's from Diesel, which was a one-issue Jojo ripoff from the 90s.

Yeah, Nick Simmons did that. His manga was called Incarnate and heavily plagiarized Bleach and Hellsing, among others.

Also, I don't think anyone mentioned this but this "anime" was suppose to air in 2016 on FOX/FX's "ADHD" (Animation Domination High-Def) but FOX canned it originally, and I can see why.
Then, for some fucking reason, Netflix picked it up.

I feel the need to point out that Mir also did (most of, the first half of season 2 of Korra has issues and was done by Pierrot) both Avatar shows.

And the funny thing is, they needed three studios to make this shit- Production I.G and MOI Animation had to be brought on due to DEEN's incompetence.

Sad, really.

To be fair to KunoSuba, the director encouraged the animators to break the character models.

No matter how many tries Jaden gets at stardom, it's never going to happen, Will.

These are the real actual lines during a Sonichu-esque Ranma 1/2 parody:

The real tragedy is Tommy Wiseau wasn't hired as a voice actor for the show.
