LOL

You sound like you haven't explored anime at all. Might want to expand your horizons a bit because there's some great gems out there. Like Naoki Urasawa's Monster, which I read because it was recommended by Pulitzer Prize winner Junot Díaz.

Naoki Urasawa is absolutely incredible and everyone should his work.

Although... I have to say, he does seem like he's more the exception than the norm. Not that OP is right in any way, but from what I can see anime culture right now does seem to have a bit of a problem with pandering etc.

Well, Naoki Urasawa is more related to the manga-side which, even if it has some of the same problems as the actual anime culture, is also a lot more varied.
There's a big bunch of great works for adults that don't get adapted in anime for various reasons (they would be difficult to make/don't fit with the current/the editors and authors aren't interested/etc).

[cushlamochree]

That's a fair point, definitely. Even with the little that I pay attention to manga/anime these days, that's the strong impression that I get as well: manga is more interesting and more varied and more capable of doing things that aren't pandering.

Maybe I should just read manga and ignore anime entirely.

da

That's basically what I do. Sure, I will check out some of the new stuff that comes out every season and go through my backlog of older shows, but I mainly focus on manga.

[takaraikarin]

Same with me, anon. I find, with a bit of digging, manga definitely is the medium with the more variety and the gems here and there, and it doesn't even depend on the genre. Historical, politics, psychological thriller, heck even for romance and BL there are more variety, and thought-provoking titles.

People would laugh if I say this, but even some shoujo manga and BL titles are thought-provoking, though my favorite shoujo and BL mangas have a quiet, contemplative mood to them. And I know I won't ever see them as anime because they're not 'on trend' or don't have enough selling points like sex or fanservice-y stuff.

Monster was amazing. Depressing as hell and ,__, inducing, but amazing.

And Utakoi, which is quirky historical/literary education.
