DON'T FORGET TO ADD " !! " AT THE END OF EACH SENTENCE!!1. Stage a protest - scratch that we can't go out
2. Complain to Netflix - oh, they don't care
3. Find every forum thread where the word Netflix is mentioned and write about it in BOLD AND CAPITALS. Bingo, we have a winner!
It is not.Grave of the Fireflies is available in Portugal:
Isn't it available in UK?
Great recommendation.Have you got a blindspot for Howl's Moving Castle or did you just miss it by mistake? Seriously....that's probably in many' people's top 10 movies, never mind the "Top 10 Studio Ghibli movies on Netflix"!

I think if you're viewing through the lens of the modality that is a result of the way that western animation has evolved then it might end up appearing to look 'bad'. But it's less that it's badly animated and more that it is animated purposefully in that way to meet a different aesthetic goal.C'mon, they're basically Dogtanion and the Three Musketeers...just with beautiful matte paintings..
in all seriousness, I genuinely don't understand why some of the animations get a pass. From what I've seen of the Ghibli stuff, they're frequently stunning, from both a conceptual and an aesthetic level. I just don't get why the characters are often so primitively drawn and animated.
Really not trolling, just always been curious...
Disney+ Joins Netflix, Apple, Amazon And YouTube In Throttling Streaming Quality During Coronavirus Outbreak
Also postpones its French launch.www.forbes.com
Article quote:
“People who have complained about these moves to downgrade the quality of streaming services have been accused by some of selfishly caring more about how good their streamed picture quality looks than the horrors of the Coronavirus pandemic.
In reality, though, the issue here - at least as things stand at the time of writing - is not about self-entitled video fans. Rather it’s about the apparent power of one EU commissioner with seemingly questionable levels of technical knowledge (it’s notable that Breton talked of switching HD to SD, with no mention of switching, say, 4K to HD) to be able to cause a reduction in the quality of paid-for entertainment services across an entire continent with apparently little if any actual justification or scrutiny.”
I think if you're viewing through the lens of the modality that is a result of the way that western animation has evolved then it might end up appearing to look 'bad'. But it's less that it's badly animated and more that it is animated purposefully in that way to meet a different aesthetic goal.
It's an aesthetic goal which has evolved in parallel to western animation has it's own historical routes in centuries of manga just like our animation style pulls from our own art history. If you can tune into it then you'll probably suddenly find you're on board.
If you can't then you certainly won't be the only person in the world who feels that way!
(Also: some anime, for sure, is absolutely pumped out by factories and it shows. There are some particularly egregious stills of the later seasons of Seven Deadly Sins currently doing the rounds online. But there's an awful lot of western animation notorious for similar things - think repeating backgrounds in Flintstones and Scooby Doo)
