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.

I remember watching the Beetlejuice cartoon when I was a kid. I thought it was fun and exciting! Lydia and Beetlejuice went on adventures every day, fighting villains and having gothic horror fun. Then I saw the original movie and was surprised to find out Beetlejuice was actually the villain. And super creepy toward Lydia too. Huh.

That's every R-rated movie turned into a cartoon. Robocop and Ghostbusters and Starship Troopers were advertised anywhere and everywhere, and kids liked the shallow cool parts in the trailers, so executives said "screw it" and licensed no-budget G-rated spinoffs to sell toys.

Those exploding bug-alien toys were fucking sick, by the way.

Tubi.

All four seasons (94 episodes) of Beetlejuice are currently streaming on the popular platform.

Only a synth would call Tubi popular.
