anime is a completely pointless topic in my opinion. i honestly feel like it has no future because of AI. even if there is something that resembles anime in the future, it will all be drawn and probably written by AI. what is the point of that? and looking back, the only thing that made anime so good was that it was niche. GITS for example, while touching on interesting concepts and being beautifully drawn, doesnt have a very good story. it was niche enough, small enough and nimble enough to touch on cool, ahead-of-their-time concepts that hadnt yet broken through to mainstream. but beyond that, it doesnt really do much. most anime that ive seen is extremely violent, has meandering dis-jointed writing, etc. not of much value to anyone above the age of 16. watching GITS now is even more disappointing because all of the transhumanist, cyberpunk themes that are touched upon arent cool anymore. they are reality now. AI is here and its a real thing that we have to deal with. soon we really will have to deal with the concepts seen in GITS. and its just tired and disappointing because it wont be like a cool anime, it will be horrible and dangerous and disgusting. society will be shattered..
