I have a complaint.



I was watching these cartoons and the animation in most of them just seems lacking.

And I know what the problem is. These cartoons are just being in-betweened and nothing else. It's so boring to look at.

The designs and the humor worked great in my opinion but there's nothing I like about the way it moved. So repetitive.

BRING BACK AMERICAN LABOR. It's the only way.

Johnny Test - Upcoming episodes.



This clip was posted by an animator working in the Phillipines on youtube.

It looks awesome.

According to the internet Canada will be getting airdates of this show first because that is place of pre-production. There is not a clue on when USA will be getting this show because Cartoon Network's decision to throw away animation and the death of Kids' WB.

Enjoy though.

My interpretation of a war related cartoon.



Now this is Popeye. He loves to fight and right now he's out on the sea looking for Japanese people.

Why is he doin' this? Because it's war-related.

Now most people will take a first glance at the cartoon and say "OHH IT'S RACIST"
But it's not. It is a parody of what was going on a the time in the US. The cartooon stereotypes the Japanese as brainy, wimpy, big toothed, ugly eyed nerds who speak engrish and shortens the their name to "jap" ,an old war term. Racial caricaturing was quite common back in the day and is still found to be very offensive.



But if you're not a fucking idiot and can take a joke(maybe even a joke that's poor in taste at that) you'll get over it. Oh well.

Another example of this is well good ol' blackface. The most common of the type of these drawings.



Old cartoons and the people that made them never meant to be racist and offensive to anyone. They were put on the earth for our enjoyment and basically they are parodying culture at the time because people didn't have celebrities and movie, musical artists to make fun of back in the 40s. Make due with with you have.

The cartoon is hilarious, the animation is great, and it is definitely not racist or created to be offensive. It is banned though because it depicts a Japanese naval officer planning to drink gasoline and eat firecrackers. It can also be considered as propaganda, and we all know that propaganda is a big no-no.

Haha also take note. They make fun of faulty Japanese manufacturing.
