   Not sure why this trash is being given so much coverage.

   “Netflix’s new original”

   They also did the Death Note America movie too, right?
   Curious as to if they’ve done anything worth while outside of a shitty video service.

      I guess it’s a matter of personal taste but I thought Bojack Horseman, Master of None, Stranger Things, The OA, and Ozark were all excellent and consider them among my favourite shows.

   After the last article, I decided to check this out. I couldn’t wait for the first episode to be over and decided I couldn’t handle any more.

   The English voice acting is terrible. Or it’s purposefully terrible, in a non-funny way.

      I think it was deliberate. Taking the piss and all that.

      I think it would have worked if it was anyone but Jaden Smith.

   nearly every attempt to westernise anime with a New IP (Reflection), turning marvel/dc comics into anime (the last avengers anime turned them into kids toys the children activated) or turning anime into live action western series has failed (DBZ, Death Note). Miserable missing the point and target audiences in both markets. The Reflection is shockingly bad.

   Hell the only known success a western styled anination breaking into Japan anime market was RWBY.

      Hell the only known success a western styled anination breaking into Japan anime market was RWBY.‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ & ‘Legend of Korra’? Both triggering countless debates over what actually is anime?

         Avatar was stylised by Asian animation, and as a western production its attempt to break into the Japanese market had mixed results. I thought Avatar wasn’t well received in Japan, the japanese voice dub was a huge factor and it didn’t get a third season dub. (Mostly publisher issues and poor marketing)

         They were not that big in Japan, which I think is what OP was saying.

         Both of which were not very successful in Japan, which was the point of the very words you quoted…
