@the_weeb_crew: People used to complain that anime catered to otaku audiences too much, but with otaku drifting away from anime spaces and the growth of the overseas market, should anime fans be more concerned about the global shift? #animefypシ #animetiktok #animepodcast #animecommunity #otaku
Yep, it reminds me of Martin Scorsese‘s commentary on how Hollywood push on superhero movies where it’s catered to a bunch of people specifically “nerds” who don’t care about the artistry of filmmaking, but just the character/IP behind it

Kinda in a weird area right now, because partly due to Japan stigma around mental illness and other social issues like gay marriage, I think they try to make content to appeal to western audiences or inspired by western culture/sensibilities, but ultimately backfires because of the audience that type of content attracts (Gachiakuta mangaka being bullied off the internet is the most recent example)
