          MAD's thing was aggressive satire, a sort of counter-culture movement to anything and everything America enjoyed. This comic isn't different from their other works or many other things in the same genre. Seeing all these zoomers shocked and offended just goes to show how soft current media has made them due to the lack of realistic ugliness and criticism.

        There really wasn't an example of a fad lasting longer, most were three years max. Ninja Turtles had probably the longest lifespan at that point, keeping up their momentum for around six or seven years. And Pokemon did run out of momentum for a while, it happened between Gold & Silver's release and Crystal's release, which meshed with the typical three year lifespan. But then it got big again when DP came out. And it got HUGE again when Pokemon GO came out.

    Because I always found her cute and funny. No, really this time. She's adorable and the way she bounced off of Ash and Brock was entertaining as hell. Kid me fell in love with her pretty quick and it kick started my love of feisty tomboy types that you can compete with, have fights with, hang out with like bros, and also enjoy that girly side to them they don't usually show. Another thing that made Misty palatable is that Ash wasn't some helpless victim all the time and gave her shit right back, and often antagonized her on purpose. It's so comfy and perfect. How can anyone NOT like Misty?

    I guess people get turned off by the slapstick physical comedy? But I grew up watching Looney Tunes and stuff, that shit was just compleeeeeetely normal to me and I never took it even half serious. It's just crazy gags, and it just highlights what I like about her even more.

    For the zoomlings that don't get why this comic seems to be so bitter, basically the people that drew this, along with a lot of people in the industry, hated 80s cartoons for being soulless, cheaply animated toy commercials, and there were even campaigns to take those types of cartoons off the air. So when the japs put out what is essentially a commercial for the Pokemon video game/TCG, with animation that had less in-betweens than your average Disney cartoon, many people in the industry thought this was just another soulless jap product marketed to kids and manchildren (they were kinda right)

      Based animation history enjoyer schooling literal zoomers and other assorted morons on animation history. People who think the anime was not a cheaply-made toy commercial are genuinely deluding themselves. And yeah, it was airing during a kind of 90s western animation renaissance, so the success of something so comparatively artless probably rubbed a lot of western illustrators and animators (and fans of those media) the wrong way.

      Not to say there wasn’t also fantastic animation being put out by Japan at the time (or earlier), but the Pokémon anime was real bottom of the barrel shit right from the beginning.

          I actually fully agree most 90s cartoons were bad (just like most cartoons today are bad), and that most probably had bad art direction — this was the “slime” generation, after all. But there was still genuine care and craft put into many of these shows, unlike modern western animation which is standardized for efficiency with stock assets and almost all movement coming from basic motion tweens. Take something like Ren and Stimpy: even if you think it’s ugly, you have to respect the philosophy behind the animation, the dedication to never drawing the same pose or expression twice.

          • 1 year ago

            And just to note, the same aversion to stock assets and tweening is what draws people to anime today. Japan is now the one real holdout that’s still doing “traditional” frame-by-frame animation instead of shitty tweened or 3D animation.

    Honestly it's funny looking back on how angry children's media producers were at the 90s anime boom. Just look at Cartoon Network around the mid-90s. Pretty much every popular original cartoon on the network did their own DBZ parody. Oh, and the only reason Powerpuff Girls was picked up was to combat the success of anime, and make a "DBZ for girls"; it was even marketed as such

    After the SSJ3 transformation episode had aired, it was revealed that it was one of the highest rated cartoons to ever be broadcasted on Cartoon Network, and it caused so much anger with the top creators at the network, that they did an interview with Craig McCracken and Lauren Faust, were they openly bashed the show, with similar sentiments to the ones you see in this mad magazine parody.
