Why is it that you always can tell whether a drawing was made by a chink or not?

I've been analyzing pic related for forever but I can't figure out what makes them so distinctly eastern looking. Even though the character designs are western and all.

lol.
Literally all 80s cartoons were animated by TMS, you raging faggot.
As soon as american studios took over the animation looked like furaffinity dogshit.
From gummi bears to rescue rangers, everything was animated in japan and it shows.

actually it kinda looks like shit. Eastern animation studios aren't commissioned for their quality but because they are much cheaper than western animation studios. Obviously there are some exceptions like Studio Trigger, Ghibli, Madhouse etc, but those are not the studios that western tv animation is being outsourced to.

You can almost always see a big drop of quality when a western based animation studio starts outsourcing their animation to Japan or Korea. Just look at the Simpsons or Legend of Korra as the 2 perfect examples.

Pic related. Top is western animation, bottom is eastern animation.

Those drawings don't remind me of asian artists at all to be honest. After checking out that guy's DA it kinda makes sense. It's a japanese westaboo who tries to copy western artstyles and does nothing but fanart of western cartoon characters. His drawings have nothing of this typical asian artist charm to them.

OP isn't wrong. There's something I can't place that's different than the actual show. Maybe it's just how crisp it is compared to the shows now due to age? Like even on Netflix the colors are much duller than they would be today (such as in fanart).
So I wonder if it's a mix of that and the sharper cel shading?

>> No.2670877

I'll try to answer your question honestly OP. It's the
1.The harsh cel shading.The very sharply marked areas of light and dark and lack of gradation is very anime.
2. Those "symbol expression" speech bubbles in the top left one. (also Brain's sweat bead in the bottom right one. Otherwise that one's actually the most western looking one, if it weren't for that)
3. The line art. Eastern artists sometimes seem to draw lines much more meticulously no matter how cartoony the subject matter is. the range between thick and thin is often much narrower. notice how delicately the artist handles the separation of pinky's eyes. in those top three. also notice the slight wrinkling of Brain's closed eyelids in the top left one. bothering to include a detail like that is a decidedly eastern thing.
4. the glint on the eyes. this kinda ties in with the above note, but for the purposes of your question it sticks out a lot in this particular image. like the eyelid wrinkles mentioned in the above note, if included at all, an original artist of the show would have likely made this kind of detail markedly bigger.

those are pretty much all pertaining to finishing details. in their early stages these drawings probably looked a lot more like legit western production art, with the exception of the top right Pinky, who looks straight out of a yaoi doujin. that's anime cute rather than the kind of disney cute animaniacs was imitating, pic related.

Bottom is a corporate product.
The moment the simpsons left the tracy ullman show it was animated in korea you repressed hack.

That being said AKOM is also a shit-tier studio.
TMS was the best studio around.
That's also why all intros to 80s cartoons look so amazing, all animated in japan.
