Is it me, or does the animation style reek of Marathon studios (They're the frenchies who do Totally Spies and Martin Mystery)?
Is it cheaper there or something? Whatever happened to just shipping it out to Korea?

I say that a lot of these haters here are so mad that the first really good american (in colaboration with japanese animators) show done in anime style which is actually really good was the brain child of an intelligent black man. The thing came outa its hummble beginigs as a newspaper comic strip and is takes America by storm. Awwww, sorry to all the poor ignorant sobs out there. Your anger over te matter makes it all the sweeter. So keep on posting garbage. Let me sound ignorant if I may, coz this forum hasn't got any standards anyway. But us Niggas are topging the charts on Adult swim. Lol. Now go cry to yah mama.

Boondocks suck because those damn niggers are trying to get into anime, same as when the round eyes try to get into anime
Anime is a style of animation, and it's best when done by Japanese.
If there's one thing black can't do besides make good music, it's anime.
Boondocks isn't even anime, it's niggermation, worse then anime and cartoons.
The made it all "Hood" with boring story and nigger stuff.

Typical white supremist cracker talk. The facts are there plain and simple. Just because a show with centered around black people in this oh soo white world, where the writer actually rights intelligently then its bad. But when something like family guy, which is funny mind you, but has no substance, thought behind it but is composed of fart jokes, and is so blatently racist, you jump up and say genius.
My i am starting to see how some of you think. I cant even be bothered with people like you no more. Its a real shame. But hey, at least boondocks is like the # 1 show, regardles of what simple thoughts you have. Mind you it was actually animated by Real Anime-tors. And I'm tired of hearing this crap, 'nyah nyah Boondocks isn't anime....' Shit, check ur facts. Igonorant. Thats what you are. What do you even know about black people, black music or black culture. Nothin'! So, on the real. Keep yappin to yourself. Go do some homework or samn, you must be in high school or something, and not doing to well either. Infact why am I arguing with an Idiot. Damn, peace.

boondocks doesn't look like anime, it looks more like graphitti art...
the only similarity with anime is that all characters look "super-deformed" or whatever they call that "big-head-small-body" stuff
The Boondocks is a great show that "in my opinion" (everyone is entitled to one) shows that intelligence never varies on your race. Huey and Riley are two sides of a coin. Huey has inside intelligence via books, internet information, and worthy political views. Riley is a common view of what "anyone" may expect from a black child raised in the hood.....a young thug/punk with little-to-no potential to change his ghetto ways. The show doesn't bring down any races at all or specifically. It exploits many truths about all people in society instead in terms of racial views. Yes, many black people act dumb (hood thugs >_>;)...however there are many smart black people. This same thing applies to all other races. The animation is very good on this show and I see no need for improvement because the characters are detailed and all portrayed beautifully based on their backgrounds. The term "Niggermation" is harsh, hateful and uncalled for. This is anime! American Anime! Japanese anime usually either have a mainstream story or no story at all depending on the genre. I have seen many entertaining animes with great stories but VERY few deliver things close to reality. Unlike many fictional animes from Japan at least this delivers 1st rate comedy (many are puns) with a slice of realty (kinda like GTO). For those who can't seem to find the puns, you are either close minded or very UNinformed of the world around you. The excessive use of the N-word (with a igga) is just a way of showing that it IS a very commonly used word in the lower-side of the black community. This show still pwns! "All my 5/5 are belong to this!".....and if you didn't understand my last quote, in offense to the ones that hate the Boondocks because of racist views on blacks....Suck My Wang!
PS: For those who don't know certain things.....do your frekin research, geez! I'm tired of n00bs saying things like "What’s GTO?" its called GOOGLE SEARCH!!!!....FOO' Oh and to the haters that think I'm black.....guess what.....I'm not! But wouldn't you like to know what I am? :p

Boondocks opening theme music
"I am the stone that the builder refused.
I am the visual.
The inspiration that made ladies sing the blues.
I'm the spark that makes your idea bright
The same spark that lights your dark, so you know your left from your right.
I am the ballet in your box.
The bullet in your gun.
The inner glow, that lets you know, to call your brother son.
The story that just begun, the promise of whats to come, and I'll remain a soldier till the war is won!"
i like the nigga show, and i like the niggas in it, especially caruthers.
the most recent episode, wiht the grafitti, i thouhg was rather well done, and the last painting he did i thought was quite a skillfull ending to the episode.

Its sad to see coucasion people call African Americans "Niggers or Niggas" and it is sad to see African American people call coucasion people "Crackers". Those people who said those grotesque words about each other should feel ashamed. What you learn in school has nothing to do with your race. Everything that goes on in this world has to do with race. Do you honestly think by calling each other niggers and crackers you are proving a point. What point are you proving ? My question is" Why is hate based upon race"? If there was no sun and we were in complete darkness would we not be the same color? What if your mother or father was white or Black would you hate them to. I know when I post this people will say rude and hateful things.But all I ask Is after you post your rude comment tell me what have you just proven. Have you just proven my ignorance or your own ignorance.

Look. i have read some good and really stupid things sead on this thread. I myself have posted on this thread, angrily at that. My race does not matter and I shall not disclose it. Dont fuel the nonsense some people have written above. Those who write hatefull things, obviously have not experinced anything in their sheltered lives. They have no idea on anything outside of their own race, so they slander and chat shit. Just leave em alone.
Boondocks is a great show regardless of what people say. Quality speaks for itself. Immature, racist and stupid children may have things to say, but those things are not important. So ignore such comments. And I'll say it again. Ignorance is a damn shame.
And for the last time Boondocks is anime style. For fucks sake, google the damn shit. Stop bringin your uninformed damn ass ideologys and try to feed people nonsense. Damn.

BTW Boondocks is sweet. I remember thinking about how the transition from comic to TV show might be hard for this type of comedy, but they seem to have nailed it. One of the best shows on AS, probably up there with Venture Bros and 12 Oz. I would discuss why I like 12 Oz for all the people who hate it out there, but this is a Boondocks thread so....

apprently it's impossible to discuss whether or not the show's any good without people bitching about race and anime. Cos you know, well-drawn anime can still suck and vice versa. Furthermore I with something would come along and teach my dumbass generation that controvercial doesn't automatically equal great or original. It's a fucking shame people put so much energy into racial garbage. can't we all just admit that we're all basically mutts in this country and finally get right down to hating people based on their personality?

Bumping because the season's over, it's my first time posting ITT.
I fucking love this show. To paraphrase what >>16 said, "normal people don't like niggers". This most likely goes without saying, especially considering the audience of this site: however, I consider myself to not be a racist to the point where it will not matter one bit to me whether my boss, my customers, my friends, family members, teachers, students, or anyone I interact with in general society is black or Hispanic or Asian or whatever. That doesn't matter to me. However, I do detest the "culture" of the Black youth in America today. The episode with Martin Luther King Jr. hit the nail right on the fucking head, with the admittedly cliche "what did the civil rights activists fight for and how are they being repayed" angle.
I consider myself to be a situational racist. From the standpoint of doing what I have to do, dealing with people every day at work and as I go about my business, I have (as I mentioned above) no problem whatsoever what the other party's race is. However, when I'm with my friends or when I'm talking to myself or when I'm posting on an internet forum populated by anime nerds and academics, I freely and openly divulge my hatred of niggers. Niggers of all races, at that. For Chrissakes, I am white and live in a trailer park right now. I fucked up in college and am trying to earn my way back, and in the meantime I'm stuck in a fucking trailer in the middle of nowhere. And the people I see living in the park next to me are downright filthy. There's some niggers living here, white niggers and black niggers. And I hate them. I don't even associate with my neighbors.
To that end, and for the sake of a laugh, I identify with the character of Uncle Ruckus. I laugh at his jokes of "get your banana-peelin' hands off my stuff" or whatever he said (I marathoned the series all night into this morning), mostly in incredulity of the things that he says on cable television (no FCC governance, I know, but still!), but also to say, "Wow, I've been saying the same fucking thing to myself for the past ten years." About those fucking apes, hoarding their shining gold with the veracity of a crow, and the typical "urban music" sounds to me like they're dancing around a bonfire in Uganda trying to make rain.
To that end, I consider myself a racist. Honestly, I think it stemmed from me spending too much time on the internet. However, I don't let it affect the way I conduct myself outside of my own house. I have the utmost respect for someone of color who can rise above the stereotypes and prove his worth in a society that promotes unintelligence and gross materialism. Of course the "typical black man from the streets" would accuse such a person as being "white", however I am of the belief that when one is in Rome, he should do as the Romans do. In this society, those who are uneducated are forced through the process of social Darwinism to live out the span of their generations until they can produce offspring that are able to ascend to the next level and fucking make something of themselves.
It sounds Victorian, like Flatland almost. But it makes a ton of sense.
tl,dr: I hate niggers but I respect an educated black man who's a huge anime nerd
So u assume that people in Uganda dance around bonfires to make rain. I am glad you like the show, but as I see some points hit you right in the head, others totally missed you...and you know why. Because you are among some of the sterotypes that this show makes fun off. Surprise suprrise. Anyway. Whatever. Its a great show. Glad even a racist can appreciate it.
Above quotations should be taken in jest. When I'm dealing with individual people, I will show them the same amount of respect regardless of the color of their skin. I have a bunch of friends who are black and I don't think of them any differently than I think of my white friends. However on the side I do joke around.
Is it nice? No. Is it acceptable in a large crowd in public? No. Do I treat people of other colors than I differently because I happen to think that an uneducated man is the scum of the earth? No, unless I'm dealing with them. And even then I won't say anything to their face, I'll just kind of keep my distance.
In my opinion, as long as you don't let it affect the way you treat other living human beings, you should be allowed to say and think and write whatever the fuck you want.
Note that I consider myself to be a situational racist. That part where I mentioned Uncle Ruckus? Yeah, I think he's disgusting. I was absolutely shocked to find that they would dare to air someone that says the filth that he says on television, broadcast or cable. However, I can't help but laugh at the things he says, because I make the same jokes - I just don't live my life according to them.
I guess you could look at it this way: I'm not really a racist, I just play one on the internet.
Uncle Rukus is just an extension of Uncle Tom. Anyhoo, Some of his jokes ARE funny. Tho, They shouldn't be...

Attention! Attention! White people are not the only ones posting here, and white people are not the only ones who show dislike to people not of their own race (obviously this includes blacks, but your head is stuck so far up your ass i felt i had to point it out)
Inother words. Everyone hates niggers.
Wrong! Everyone hates Honkeys! That's why you have bullseyes on your backs when you go to ost non-european countries. It's true that not only white folks are racist. Difference is, everybody is racists, against white people. Why? Because of white racists are total fucktards. Going around for hundreds of years, shitting all over the world. Man, those non-whites that don't want you dead just want to use you. the second you find yourself in too deep they leave you behind to get fucked. Think somebody likes white people? please!
boondocks |ˈboōnˌdäks| plural noun informal rough, remote, or isolated country : we're out here in the boondocks, miles from a telephone. ORIGIN 1940s: boondock from Tagalog bundok ‘mountain.’

This thread should have ended. The points were made. The boondocks is a great show. Some people hate it, and some of the people who were posting negative things about this show were racist. No one said everyone who posts here is white, or even that every white person who posts here is a racist or anything of the likes. Go over this thread and read some of the obnoxious, underthought, dim witted remarks that have been splatterd up above. Its pitiful. But whatever. Its a great american show, done with an anime feel to it (which works so well might I add) and yes my bad, it was animated in korea, but then again a lot of shows that you watch on american tv are, so that does not mean a thing. All the conceptuals and story boards were done in da states. Anyway whatever.
And as I said powerless people are the ones who hide behind computer screens typing shit, thinking they are big men. If you wana go start insulting people go do it live to some1s face. I respect that, then I'd proceed to stomp on your face, but still. I would respect that.

Uncle Ruckus reminds me of Danny Glover in The Cookout, but with a nastier mouth.
I completely agree with you. As the OP of this thread (Seriously!) I believe this discussion should have died out a long time ago. This thread sucks, and I regret ever making it. It has become nothing more than a race-based flame war. All I wanted to know is if the show was made in France!
I just hope there is a kind and loving Mod who will listen to my cries and delete this thread. Please, this discussion is going nowhere and is a waste of time, space and bandwidth. I'd donate money (Even blood) to have this crapfest end.
That's what happens when you post threads on 4chan. Because it's an annonymous board, people who are closet racists can now come out with their ignorance without worrying about reprisals. If you wan't serious discussion, go to a non anonymous board.
