If low quality animation was frowned apon, why is Japanese animation the most popular? Japanese animation is notorious for using cost cutting shortcuts such as reusing footage, panning a still frame to create the illusion of movement, low quality lip syncing, as well as little variety in stylistic design. Aside from studio Ghibli, most japanese animation is of extremely poor quality compared to north american studios such as Warner Bros, Disney, and Nickelodeon. While Japanese animation has the edge on western animation in terms of storytelling, this is mostly due to the Japanese acceptance of animation as a merely a storytelling medium, where North American culture views it more as a medium for kids. Due to many high quality cartoons in the 80s though, this cultural bias is changing with the generation who grew up at that time still enjoying the shows of their youth and therefore feeding a demand for more mature western animation.
