Effect of modernization in Japanese medias (+ A GAME AT THE END) #Funkytown #FT
Ts keyboard deadahh pmo but nvm, okay so in first segment im gonna talk about how Japanese media and arts has been overall getting influenced by stuff such as modernization and emergence of AI and financial stuff
Firstly, it kind of has transformed Japanese arts in a good way but there is also a certain portion which is struggling due to this.
And I'm Talking about this topic due to the anime I'm gonna recommend, they are very related. (in next post maybe)
So obviously Anime and Manga has become a great global entertainment due to Modernization and Me. But that's not All there is to it.
Hand drawn animations such as Ghibli and such beautiful arts are probably Never gonna be seen again.
Stuff such as CGI which was never a strong Point of Japan is constantly getting normalized in it (for the better or worse).
Ofc speed of products attained is increasing too but... Is Quantity all there is to it?
One of good things Modernisation has given is probably the streaming medias such as anikoto which I'm using now, due to which I can watch the anime I'm gonna recommend.
Another shift it has created is how modern production is never trying to take risks. With growing capitalism of studios, the Mangakas do not have freedom to conclude pacing and other basic things about their story themselves. There have been low to no original stories lately which pmo to a catastrophic level.
The author of NGE (Neon Genesis Evangelion) himself said its scary how much the Japanese media is getting influenced by the west.
Another thing is how workers are getting treated. Their talent is not respected and prolly everyone is aware of it.
They have just become workers for someone instead of an artist giving work of their talent. Like we see so many complains everyday about animators being treated badly like rushed deadlines, low payments, and zero creative freedom.
And obviously, The money hungriness for genre. Have you ever wondered why there were so many isekais or romance slops getting made for no reason?
Money money money 🤑🤑🤑
Why would the producer care if the story deciphers Talent? Money matters most (to me too lmao 😹😹💔).
I think a good example is Kyoto Animation. A lot of their anime is pretty good. They don't overproduce anime and Quality > Quantity. And MAIN thing is that they respect their artists as well and all of their staffs are salaried employees instead of relying on freelance animators to cut budget which helps a lot because they don't get underpaid or very tight deadlines like how freelance animators always complain about and it also helps preserve artist talents I think
Now some of my personal thoughts on this is, of course Globalization is important and stuff but.. Can't there be some respect for artists talent?
Considering how much culture and talents are being exploited.
Day when AI will make a show themselves is prob coming very soon.
So we were talm about some stuffs such as modernization n stuff so I have come up with a game according to that.
How game work:-
(1) You are someone who works as nn individual making a new anime.
(2) You have to create a new Anime for the studio.
Rules:-
-> You can make Anything. But what you have to keep in mind is the profits which will give you points based on it.
You have to name different genres on the anime and how you will pace it.
For eg :-
Mine is Psychological + Avant garde + Fast paced + with A lot of fanservice and aura moments.
So I get 4/10 points for profits.
Btw I will Try to reply as fast as I can on Providing profits so if you are playing this game. Good luck.
