Why are anime characters so fucking ugly nowadays? - They look like they were Made in China.

[Alex Hogendorp]

What made me love anime was basically because of it's history of beautiful artworks, hand drawn techniques and wide variety of character designs. Ever since it went digital I began to notice a decrease in the detail and the increase in vulgarity. It was really disappointing as I've really been looking forward to creative innovations with the aesthetic but it all seems to be forsaken. I'm just gonna provide you some pictures of anime to give you a refreshment on how far it has fallen and became a cesspool of autistic weeb trash,

Even when I was starting to draw in the manga style in the early 2000s, I was quickly informed that animation was made digitally

Your first pic looks to be from a visual novel - it's not an anime, just in a manga style.

There are definite differences in the way the stuff is drawn now, but your comparisons aren't good.

But even if they were, the downgrades wouldn't be explicit to non-anime watchers.

Your "good" example hardly looks better. I mean it does but it's still pretty middling. I do hate the way almost every anime looks now though. There's a few exceptions of course, but I'll always prefer the old shit.
