On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

Oh, the Wachowskis aren't actually good at writing... The Matrix is "strongly inspired" in themes and storyline (often shot for shot) by Dark City... They haven't written anything all that good outside of that.

They are hit-and-miss, but the original Matrix, V for Vendetta, Sense8, Cloud Atlas and Bound are actually good. Assassins, their first filmed script, is also not bad in a 90s action movie way.

Then its a good thing the book they're adapting is really really good! So they don't have to do much writing! 😋
