    I'm sorry, @amateurhour, you're one of my favorite posters and I have to admit I didn't actually read the question of the post but I was confused by the pronouns in the poll options so I chose Chanus because I was afraid of revealing something about myself that I wasn't ready to by choosing either of the other options. I will now pad this text significantly with nonsense filler text to give the impression that I wrote a lot when in actually I didn't. But before we get to that, Happy Birthday!

    Not. Shit.

    Wife is out running errands and we bought full grocery run so that we don't have to leave the house before we fly out for PAX (self quarantine so that if we DO get sick, it wont fuck up our vacation till we're back)

    I started drinking at 11 and I'll prolly take a nap later and maybe watch No Way Home with the wife since she hasn't seen it.

    To sum up my issues this morning without inviting debate, there was a featured artist on Imgur today who is very, very talented in practical/mechanical terms but he works apparently exclusively in a general anime style; the twist here is how his main form of income seems to be doing portraiture commissions, and I think his ability to capture someone’s likeness is just . . . really bad? I’m trying very hard here not to be more negative than the situation requires, but seeing this guy get a feature and blow up a little bit just reminds me again not just how many different ways I dislike anime, but also how disappointed I am in others when they enjoy it.

    Anyway. I feel like if you’re doing portraiture commissions to pay your bills, your portraits should at least try to look like the person your referencing—which he doesn’t even seem to attempt most of the time. It’s just standard anime motifs with a real person’s clothing and hairstyle taken from the reference photo, but people go ape over it, and that bothers me very deeply, as it just feels like a two-pronged celebration of mediocrity. This highly talented artist is doing work that is a misrepresentation of his own thesis, and then being rewarded for it. Seems wrong.

    But seriously, we do not have to discuss this. I’m perfectly fine keeping it to myself if it means harshing a good vibe.

    I think a lot of people are happy to see a really clean-faced, blank version of themselves that shows off the things about their appearance that they have chosen (clothes, hairstyle) and washes out everything else into a generic nothing. You see this with snapchat filters, with bitmoji, with memoji, horizon facebook VR bullshit, with the way people light their own portraits, people who look at the foundation in their makeup kit and say "yes"

    So when the anime portraits come out super generic and they don't have to confront any self-image issues and they can just say "thats me!", they love it.

    For people who aren't revulsed by the generic anime style anyway.

    This isn't to say that the broad stylistic universe of anime couldn't support accurate caricature. I actually think it could. But it would require a more talented artist working harder and people would dislike it. Lose-lose.

    Next, Amy we'll talk about what you have against furries and whether you're basic and shallow and wrong (you think they're zoophiles) or whether you're right but overstepping (you think many are using fursonas as a shield against personal hangups, trauma, and as an unhealthy way to cope with being neuroatypical)
