Why is Japanese material so special?

Tell me, because I do not know. Their people are not so admirable, and their actual political position in the world is admirable either. I get the acute feeling somehow from seeing how in many websites, that they set aside a section for "anime" like in warez sites, fanfiction sites, and so on. Perhaps that is all fandom stuff, warez included. If that is so, then what is the explanation for all of this popularity of Japanese material? Why not Mexican? Or German? Or Swedish? Is there any part of their production of cartoons that makes it far superior to anything else? I feel that it does. I really hate American cartoons. I do not feel that American cartoons have anything to them. So what is this difference?

Perhaps you may not know the answer as well, and that is fine. But perhaps you may have some idea on the answer, which you could tell.

I'm not over-analyzing, because I hate American culture as it stands. I know something is wrong with it with all its reality shows and bad sitcoms, but there must be something underlaying it that is the problem. Knowing the problem is at least important for personal satisfaction.

I don't think those other countries churn out cartoons in quite the same manner as Japan does - Japan has the whole subculture devoted to it and all. Ehunno.

Listen >>1, your post seems to be spelled corectly, and you don't seem to have 0 ammount of culture. You seem to be smart, unlike the other faggs lurking around on 4chan.
What the hell are you doing here?

The difference is that you've been fed with American cultue and not Japanese.
And the difference in they way the market works.

Think that in America everything seems to lack creativity?
They way more sequels are made and less original concepts. Trust me there are still original stuff out there, but after being fed with the same garbage for such a long time its easy to become cynical.

In Japan it's way too unstable to create sequels of for example anime because people tend to want new characters settings and stories, even if the  archetypes are being reused.
Anime is also based on something and rarely a standalone production, things like manga and games.

>then what is the explanation for all of this popularity of Japanese material? Why not Mexican? Or German? Or Swedish

All of those cultures are secondary and partially belong to the American multiculture. All sort of national flavor is already present in different forms and ways in the American culture.

This, homever, has Japan in a somewhat unique way retained a own identity. Even if they are heavily westernized.

All the Japonese did was take something common (animation, various storylines), put it in an uncommon light (more fluid animation, storylines presented from non-traditional angles), and pushed the envelope a little (more "realistic looking" scenes of over-the-top sex and violence).

People, when viewers compare Japanese anime shows with Amercian TV dramas, they only look at the subject from the viewers' point of view but not from the view of people who produce the shows. No one had yet mentioned the most important factor that really affect the directions of the two different cultures: PRODUCTION COST/BUDGET. The different between animes and real life dramas is that real life dramas can never have the freedom of script writing as animes because everything is restricted by cost and budget. Remember one episode of Suzumiya Haruhi that the producers suddenly decided to talk about space war so the animators just simply drew thousand of spaceships they wanted. Not just spaceship, how about giant robot, monster, airplane crush with submarine, huge explosion......etc. Do Amercian scriptwriters really lack imagination and only Japanese anime scriptwriters can think of all those stuffs? I don't think so. The fact is that from the beginning of their career the scriptwriters of real life drama had to learn which kind of script can be actually done by the budget that they can afford. Animes never have such problem therefore don't say there is no realistic reason for people who enjoy watching animes.       

>>10 Abs. agreed. Pretty much explains why they produced Rebuild of Evangelion... and why Episodes 25 and 26 lacked action and were pretty... sketchy.

You don't "eat" sperm. You sip it, with your little pinky finger pointing out.

they have a "cultural-nature" hability to draw

then, good plots exist everywhere.

i feel like american cartoons and entertainment's concern is to sell you whereas japanese artists have ambition in being the best not making the most money or appealing to the highest amount of viewers. they have a take it or leave it attitude which many americans are attracted to

Multiple exclamation marks; the sign of an unclean mind.

In Japan, it's sociably acceptable for an adult to be into that stuff. In the West, it makes you a nerd/overgrownmanbaby/paedophile.
