So we all gush about anime and stuff but having been raised on animation from both ends of the Pacific I was wondering what has been some of the best animated series story or animation wise (3D or 2D) that has been produced by Western (i.e. non-Asian sources, so yes, French cartoons like Totally Spies or Tintin count too) in recent years.
For me, my faves are: 1. Batman: The Animated Series (DC Animation) 2. Beast Wars (Mainframe) 3. Mighty Max 4. Batman Beyond (DC Animation) 5. 200X series He-Man (Mike Young) 6. Avatar: The Last Airbender (Nickelodean) 7. Justice League/Unlimited (DC Animation) 8. Filmore (Disney) 9. Avatar: The Legend of Korra (Nickelodean) 10. TMNT (Nickelodean) Honorable mentions go to Teen Titans, Kim Possible, the 200X TMNT, Cybersix, Samurai Jack, The Tick, Gargoyles and good old Mummies Alive! I know at some point My Little Pony will come up so knock yourselves out. I'm hoping this thread by introduce hidden gems most of us might have passed up on for whatever reason. |

Argh...I just posted a thread with a similar theme to this. Sorry, can one of the Mods help to close mine or merge it with this one?
Anyway from the previous thread: So we all gush about anime and stuff but having been raised on animation from both ends of the Pacific I was wondering what has been some of the best animated series story or animation wise (3D or 2D) that has been produced by Western (i.e. non-Asian sources, so yes, French cartoons like Totally Spies or Tintin count too) in recent years.

TMNT (Nickelodean) Honorable mentions go to Teen Titans, Kim Possible, the 200X TMNT, Cybersix, Samurai Jack, The Tick, Gargoyles and good old Mummies Alive! I know at some point My Little Pony will come up so knock yourselves out. I'm hoping this thread by introduce hidden gems most of us might have passed up on for whatever reason. A little more on the subject. While in Japan, animation is pretty much a self-sustaining industry that seems to churn out a new show every month, the same can't be said about this in the West where animation is either seen as a labor of love or a niche market aimed at young kids. Even Disney for a time were putting out more annoying live-action comedies than animated shows either for economic reasons or just a lack of creative input in the animation department. With most of Disney's current big hits being more from Pixar, I'm not sure if they'll ever feel compelled to go back to old Disney style animation magic.

That was a Brazilian cartoon wasn't it? It was VERY good for its time animation wise. Also, Phantom 2040 though admittedly the animation style took a lot of getting used to.

The comic book it's based on is Spanish but the cartoon was made by a French-Canadian company. The ending always did irk me a little.
