This has to be the most off-topic discussion but I just wanted to hear other people's thoughts on this. For every new modern cartoon coming out today they are most likely inspired by manga or anime. While this is not necessarily a bad thing it does get kind of repetitive that every cartoon has a Sailor Moon-esque transformation sequence or Dragon Ball Z style fights. I have nothing against the writers and how they make and inspire their shows to be. And while I do end up loving these types of shows (Star vs., Steven Universe, and OK K.O!) the whole animesqueness of the shows can sometimes get a little annoying in my opinion. I know that anime inspired elements can make a show good with its themes and plot as anime usually touches upon more serious subjects and stories, but it would be nice for once if there were more new cartoons that weren't just western versions of Japanese animation. I know this shouldn't be a really big deal but it's just been bugging me for the past few months and these cartoons put in some elements in anime that I find unappealing, most notably manga iconagraphy such as sweat drops, popping veins, and chibi forms those always annoy me.
