Whiskysour. One Piece is a classic. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's "hard to understand" and they're pirates. I"m an avid fan of One Piece and I've seen countless people try to degrade a story that is so misunderstood by people who never took the time to sit down and read the first few volumes. I'm sure if it was so bad it wouldn't have lasted 14 years in production. A 500+ episode anime series, 11 movies... Yeah, it's so bad. >_>
I agree that new anime needs to step it up, branch out to other demographics, and have new fresh ideas. I see nothing wrong with throwback art styles, though. And there is definitely nothing wrong with the super sentai (power rangers) series... by the way, super sentai isn't ANIMATED. So I don't know why it was even brought up.
I'm sure things will change around, but if anime becomes extinct, then oh well. We still have records of it to look back on it. You never know, it could be revived if it really does go away.
Oh and I definitely agree with paying the animators more. If they get paid better, we'd have less shitty animation for good shows.
