Most people foam at the mouth at the mention of anime, but seeing as American Animation isn't much better I prefer Anime which often times, even if it's too 'weaboo' is more detailed or just generally well proportioned compared to say;

There is way less shit on the western side as they produce way less. But proportionally it would be pretty much the same.[/QUOTE]
Yes, there is less shit western only because there overall is less western. I would say it's different markets, you get longer westreran shows with less new episodes, while with anime you get a new episode a week and they generally are 1-2 seasons at 24 episode each.
Which is one of the reasons I like anime, it's easy to pick up a show and finish it within a couple of weeks if it's done airing.
I've never watched anime, but I don't blindly hate it. I grew up on American cartoons so I guess I'd have to choose American over Anime.

[QUOTE=Generic Monk;20843221]I fucking hate anime. I'd rather watch the terrible cleveland show than any anime show.[/QUOTE]
The variety in terms of art styles and quality is so pronounced that it's foolish to say that. You can hardly compare horror and romance genres in American films, right?
My answer is both.
Example of my point in images:
American:
Simpsons[img]http://download.chip.asia/ii/69761377_14eabaaa33.jpg[/img] vs. Scooby Doo [img]http://www.williamlthomas.com/Scooby_Doo_Halloween.jpg[/img]
Entirely dissimilar.
Anime:
Darker than Black [img]http://www.anime-planet.com/images/anime/screenshots/darkerthanblacks23.jpg[/img] vs Pokemon [img]http://poke911.webs.com/pokemon_display.jpg[/img]
The difference in appearance is profound, greater in my opinion than what we see in America.
Pokemon the show has always sucked, no question there. Only used to show the artistic difference. Decide for yourself whats good, but don't make blatant assumptions based on bandwagon/uneducated opinion.
What is Darker then Black about?

Part of the problem I guess is that the thing on the right is what usually gets brought to North America.
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;20845258]What is Darker then Black about?[/QUOTE]
Hard to explain, but not a bad show. Two seasons with different names.
[quote]Ten years ago, an inscrutable and abnormal territory known as Hell's Gate appeared in Tokyo, altering the sky and wreaking havoc on the landscape. The heavenly bodies disappeared, replaced by false stars. During this time, people possessing various special abilities emerged, each capable of different supernatural feats - these are known as Contractors. Each fake star has a corresponding Contractor, which reacts to their activities. As such, Contractors are usually identified by their star's Messier catalogue number. Kept secret from the masses, these individuals are known to murder in cold blood, smothering unnecessary emotions with logic and rationale. Their incredible abilities, however, are gained at the cost of their humanity - Contractors are thus named because of an involuntary compulsion to "pay the price" each time their power is used, which can range from eating particular foods and completing meaningless tasks, to self-harm and having their bodies change in peculiar ways. Various nations and organizations around the world train and utilize Contractors as spies and assassins, resulting in violent battles for valuable objects and information.[/quote]

The problem is people hop on the bandwagon and say, hey I'm not going to watch this because all anime is dumb. Then when a potentially good show is brought over, they do a shitty dub rather than doing subs. You lose a great bit of the quality when you switch voice actors and try to do it all again. They change a lot more than you would think. Hell, they even cut out parts of the shows. Large parts.

They do the exact same thing in just about every television show you'll ever watch, it's called sex appeal, it's not in the least bit new or unique to foreign animation.
Generally, 99% of Anime is utter shit, and isn't worth watching. Yes, that's an opinion. About the only anime series that is worth watching is this one:

I mean, look at all the shit they crammed in there. And it doesn't have a plot, therefore it doesn't have a shitty anime plot.
