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.

We're back: a dinosaur story
Rock-a-doodle
The Pagemaster
Once upon a forest
Aladdin 2 and 3
Jetsons: The Movie
I'm probably overrating these because I saw them as a kid.
I never saw The Pagemaster as a kid and my wife introduced me to it at 32 years old. It holds up!
I had confusing feelings when I saw “We’re Back” in theatres.
Then confusing feelings about Tails
Then confusing feelings about Robin Hood and Maid Marian
…oh no
I enjoyed We're Back, but it was weirdly dark, and I am positive it wouldn't age well if I rewatched today.
I'm sure the plot is a mess but I dug what it was going for.
Hehe yeah, a little worried about watching rock-a-doodle now as an adult, it was great when I was a kid. We knew enough french to get the name pun (chant eclair = sing clearly) at the time and I guess that helped it feel a little more special for us. Not sure if the movie would still hold up from what I remember of it.
