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.

Outstanding Animated Program

  • Blue Eye Samurai
  • Scavengers Reign
  • The Simpsons
  • X-Men ’97

I think this is Scavengers Reign's award to lose. Also who is nominating The Simpsons? Does it actually deserve this spot? Somebody who watched it let us know lol.

Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance

  • Hank Azaria (Moe Szyslak) The Simpsons
  • Alex Borstein (Lois Griffin) Family Guy
  • Sterling K. Brown (Angstrom Levy/Angstrom #646) Invincible
  • Maya Rudolph (Connie the Hormone Monstress) Big Mouth
  • Hannah Waddingham (Deliria) Krapopolis

Out of this list I think Sterling K. Brown deserves it most. Although I'm sad Lenore Zann wasn't nominated.

This show looked interesting, so I started watching it. After the first episode, I was confused and frustrated. But, I really wanted to like it, so I watched the second episode. And the third. I should like this. I love Sci Fi. I love complex stories, there's a plot here somewhere, I can feel it! After the third episode, I gave up. Nothing made sense. I watched Blue Eye Samurai again, I enjoyed that despite it's flaws. I wanted to like this show, I really did. I just.... I'm missing something, but for the life of me I can't figure out what.

I'm glad you all enjoyed the show. Be glad I don't get a vote.

I had the same experience as you, but finished out the season. It doesn’t get better.

I probably need to rewatch Blue Eye Samurai, it’s extremely well done.
