On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

I actually enjoyed the first Despicable Me, but the existence of the Minions absolutely ruined this entire franchise.

Franchisism is the best way to ruin a good movie

Haha yes, I can't disagree with that. Execs are never willing to just stop at one when there's the opportunity to churn out more of the same and make bank.
