I think this is the American cartoon that tries too hard too be Japanese.
And it's not alone. There are many more.

Poor kids these days, having to put up with dribble like this.

Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi is a 'Rock 'n' Roll Brawler' targeted at kids 6-11 that lets them use the DS touch screen to join the band and play guitar.

Doesn't sound all too bad... oh.. except for the age 6-11 that is

Well, Puffy is an actual Japanese pop band. They actually perform on Cartoon Network every once and a while, and they did some show themes (They did the theme for Teen Titans.)

That's why they have their own show now, I guess.

so that's why the Teen Titans theme sounds so japanese...
anyway, wapanese anime like these make baby jesus cry...
why doesn't cartoon network just license real japanese anime instead of making shit like this?

Cartoon Network doesn't carry lots of japanese show because they are american! They rather make their own shows than license expensive foreign shows. Cartoon Network has a animation School in Argentina so I guess it's a better way to produce new content rather than import (mostly mediocre japanese with copy each other). Look at the powerpuff puff girl japanese edition, t's nothing compared with the original one, and guess which one is more expensive??

The japanese wannabe is FOX, but cheaper since most shows are donde in Korea and China, and THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE IN QUALITY. Also most of their shows are into the "collect something and use it against your enemies!" kind of marketing with cards and tons of toys, which are ok if the first product is good, unlike "Beyblade" and lots of others...

I guess I rather watch Transformers and Thundercats, for my toy filled animations...

yeah, cartoon network stuff isn't bad at all! most "real" anime(targeted at kids) today suck anyway. all the same cliche crap. teen titans is a pretty good show, and so are most of the cartoons on cn.

Because the song is still in English.
I know it's in english, but it sounds much like real japanese anime intros

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
