Well after seeing this headline Anime VS Cartoons most of people will be like, is it joke? because answer is very obvious, what our generation will prefer if given them these two options.
And why is it so why Indian cartoons are creating these disasters. The answer is simple yet complicated.
The following are few reasons why people don’t watch Animes:
-
Anime and Cartoons are one and same things
-
Anime is just Hentai
-
Anime is not appropriate for kids
As we see this list of complains I think it’s completely Crap.
The Anime is a cartoon. People usually say that because they don’t understand what it is, and they don’t care; they don’t care if what they’re saying is just bunk.
Literally, I feel people should respect others choices and interests.
If people want to comment on things which they don’t know about, they just go and watch though stuffs which they like and keep their guff opinion to their self.
Secondly, anime is hentai, and I have a lot of experience with hearing that stuff as my classmates used to tease me by saying that I watch hentai whenever I watch anime or talk about anime, but I just simply ignored them, because only a real fan knows what anime is, and otakus call it “ART OF LIVING”, but I call it “THE WAY OF LIVING”
And I want to clear this stuff too which I ignore or didn’t bother to explain to my classmates is that Anime Is Not HENTAI Bro!
In Animes, just like in Bollywood, Hollywood, or any other source of entertainment, there are genres like Action, Comedy, Romance, Slice of life, Yaoi, Yuri, and I love them all except Slice of life because I find its little boring, but I did watch that genre as well it’s just that everyone has his own preferences.
Anime isn’t appropriate for kids at a certain point, I can understand parents’ insecurities, but why only anime is being judged by parents?
I agree Anime have some adult stuffs and dark theme and the Shinchan all-time favourite among kids in India, is one of the most popular series has genre of adult dark comedy just because there is kid in a show it don’t means that stuffs is good for your kid and if switch position like showing adult male character in anime like Kochikame we call them adult and not kind of stuff which should be watched by kids.
I think if parents can allow their kids to watch anything from online then arguing that anime on TV will make their kids rude or unpolite they should first stop buying mobile phones for their kids at young age then talk about anything else.
Lastly, I believe anime is not just for entertainment but also for teaching life lessons by showing the harsh reality of life. So do understand and support Animes series atleast it way better then to watch though cartoons on TV for sure.
Factual Comparison on Anime VS Indian Cartoon:
Let’s have some genuine comparison between both Animes and Indian cartoon with some pros and cons:
Animation Style:
First let’s talk about animation approached by Indian Animation Studio.
As we all know the animation style adopted by Indian Animation Studio is almost same for every character there is no effort put in to enhances the quality of cartoon hence, the result is its very boring and lame.
The mindset behind this is, if this works with the audience there is no need to invent time on building new animation style for every separate cartoon.
The other reason might be there because there is no need for such high-level of animation need in Indian cartoon has there is no scenery plus action pack fight scenes in the cartoons.
On the other hand, Animes tries different type of animations to stand out in such an intensely competitive environment.
There are 1000 plus animes with different graphics and animations which stands out in all cases.
The level of the animations is really high as compare to cartoons has there are many professional animation studios involved in it.
Also, the true essences of the anime depends on the high-level scenes and epic battles in the Animes.
The way of approaching their audiences of all age:
Well has we see the cartoons from start they are meant for kids because cartoons like Chota Bheem, roll no 21, motu patlu are only enjoyed by kids not even teenagers are interested in these stuffs nowadays.
Most of the crowd will be watching Marvel, DC or Web series on Netflix and also due to increase in the popularity of Animes among teenager and adults, various platforms are streaming Animes.
Storyline:
As everyone knows their is Zero percent of storyline in cartoon like Chota Bheem or Motu Patlu so we will keep it short, its completely waste of time even if kids are watching it.
At the end of the day your kids are not gaining any learning from it, just having fun because there is no other way to get entertain through your TV.
As we see for Animes the things that are more focused are epic fights, thrill, suspense and a great storyline with opening music and songs.
Anime is nothing without a great plot. The engaging plot makes you to watch more and more and this cycle never stops with proper story ending which exactly opposite to our Indian Cartoons.
The way of teaching:
The Indian Cartoons are more focused on the teaching that are related to the history of India and the Ancient culture that has been passed through our generations (not for all cartoons).
Most of cartoons which are infact trending are vague and no one knows why is it trending because it’s just waste of time to even think about it.
And more importantly Moral of the Story is nowhere to be found in these kinds of shows which is again waste of time to watch or making your kids to watch though crap.
As we see for animes the main focus is entertainment but still, there are many direct and indirect teachings throughout the story.
There are all sorts of animes which will teach you “True meaning of friendship”, “Never Give Up Attitude”, “Always chase your dreams” and many more there is no end for teaching and learning from Animes.
Conclusion:
For now, that’s enough of my opinion on this topic. I’d like to hear your thoughts on this as well, what you think is better, anime or cartoon? Or if you have any other points you would like to share, let me know in the comments.
