Robert, so what it if is not Akira?? Not everything is a Citizen Kane.
Right. The point is, American animation has not even come close to the level of Japanese animation at any level, save perhaps the use of computer generated images. Despite the PG-13 rating, this program is a crudely animated piece of "Saturday morning" quality. My aside that it is a pretty decent story "for a cartoon" stands. That isn't a "stereotype" as was the accusation. It is an honest acknowledgement, in my opinion, of the style and quality of animation.
Perhaps someday American animation studios will reach the level of sophistication of the Japanese. Then we will see just how far animation can really go.
