    I think western animation has started to overtake anime for quality.

    Bojack Horseman and The Amazing Digital Circus offer things I could never hope to get from anime short of 3-gatsu no Lion, namely in the writing department. The nuanced characters common in adult animation (meaning “western adult animation” since all anime is “adult”) aren’t common in anime. Probably because I drop any anime that demonstrates any conflict without english-language humour to soften it.

    And there’s so much adult animation nowadays and I’ve tried far less of it than I should, since I’m boycotting everything American and not keen on picking up a new American-centered hobby.
