![]() ![]() It debuted in July of 2013 on Cartoon Hangover, a YouTube network of animated series run by a company called Frederator. It’s safe to say Allegri and her series are cult phenomena.īee and Pupp圜at is difficult to describe, which is part of its charm. Not only does that make her the sixth-most successful filmmaker on Kickstarter (bested only by Spike Lee, Zach Braff, the Veronica Mars movie, and other big names), it also makes her its most successful woman filmmaker. She raised $872,133 for her surreal animated web series, Bee and Pupp圜at. If you look up Chainsaw Man, they just get the description from Crunchyroll, whereas MAL has a custom description.Īlso, googling "how many staff does anilist have" suggests they have 7 employees:Īs for the devs, it looks like the lead dev was the creator of the Fakku hentai pirating site.Despite having zero Hollywood clout, no major awards, and little risk of ever being described as a household name, Natasha Allegri recently made filmmaking history. It even sources MAL at the bottom in the text. ![]() This is literally using an old synposis from here. They have a big dedicated team and don't "scrape" anything (not that scraping is bad - if MAL did that, they wouldn't have thousands of unapproved entries in perpetual limbo, could just take stuff from mangaupdates or something) The issues would be whether to add ALL American cartoons (overload) or just some of them, and if just some who decides what's in or out, and by what basis? There's also a lot more work and cross-checking sources involved to create accurate and properly-linked database entries than people really consider.Īnilist and Kitsu are small-time operators who mostly just web-scrape MAL for their dataĪre you sure about that? At least as far as manga goes, MAL is not even remotely close to anilist in terms of amount of entries and how fast they get approved. There's just too much content to consider and trying to manage it would swamp MAL and take away from what MAL actually does - **accurately** logging Japanese anime and manga. AniList is probably just scraping database entries from Webtoons as well.Īdding Korean Webtoons here is the same problem as adding American cartoons. They just copy info from here, while MAL spends effort translating Japanese media releases to get the info in the first place. Well, show descriptions on AniList often have "(Source: MAL Rewrite)" at the bottom. One of the other arguments you hear is about how Anilist / Kitsu have more content (usually Korean Webtoons) and asking why MAL can't just do that. They aren't double standards, and I'm not going to argue with you about how dumb you are being. If it wasn't animated by Toei the same thing would likely have happened.īut because it was animated by Toei, and both they and Takara probably still wanted more money, it led to the most confusing continuity family in the Transformers multiverse. It's just coincidental that it aired in Japan so Takara could still make money on the toys. It did hit Japanese TV almost a year later, but this was probably done similar to how Japan imported any other American cartoon. So there was no real planning of a big multi-country release, they just wanted this stuff animated, and ASAP. ![]() The show was also rushed, because they wanted to get the show out ASAP to coincide with release dates / consumer shopping in the USA. So they would have gotten back production tapes, but the actual edit for the episodes was done in the USA. The entire production process and planning were done in the USA, including storyboard, designs and backgrounds, with only the animation sequences being outsourced. However for G1, any Japanese releases really were a complete afterthought. Either for tightening up the rules, or because new information came to light. Yeah, G1 used to be here, but they removed it. ![]() TF was animated by Toei, and while there was a Japanese audience intended (seeing as the toyline is based on 2 different Tomy ones and Tomy then and still today made the toys for the Japanese market) it was originally intended for a US audience. I'm assuming it's the same as G1 Transformers (the original cartoon, not anything else in the G1 continuity that's already on here like Headmasters). ![]()
