>If you're saying that the anon you're responding to is too busy naval gazing and glazing the old accomplishments of his country
Yeah that's pretty much what I'm saying. He's claiming to be kangz in a past that's long gone as an argument for why he should be treated as royalty today. Also he wasn't directly involved in those accomplishments and is overstating the effects/influences of those accomplishments in current time (because he has no idea about Japan animation beyond the very basic surface level stuff). He's reducing Japanese animation to a period where it was in its infancy and using that to make himself feel better.

>America COULD be the artistic powerhouse for animation again, if they truly wanted to
Not without respecting what has been done in the field and learning from it. In the current state of western culture with its obsession with denigrating Japan at every opportunity they get it's impossible. Widespread mental illness in 2025 surely plays into it but even then, a superiority complex towards Japan is very engrained in western artistic culture. The guy could just talk about Disney but he needed to bring Japan into it.
