Actually its more Common for Gamers to Also be Anime Fans... Mostly because they have the Same Elements and starting Point. Artwork. Truthfully it is Rather Shocking that you do hate it, please Pm me the reason I'm Curious now

True, The Last Airbender is labeled as an Anime. But it was written and drawn by Americans. So specifics would help

IMO, it looks like crap, like a little preschooler attempting to draw a more realistic cartoon. I'm a gamer, but I loathe anime. I love Avatar: The Last Airbender, because in my mind, it is NOT anime - it's a cartoon. Idk how it's shocking for someone to hate anime - I find it more shocking that anybody LIKES anime.

Make sure to smith the [CENSORED] out of them before you give them to him.
He'll need it. ^^

OT:
No.
Some things are simply not meant to go together.
That's why no one makes ice cream from onion.

No, it's a terrible medium.

Western animation is superior. The guys who made Korgoth of Barbaria should do it.

Uh why anime? Western animation is infinitely more badass.

I agree with Mishaxi and Jonas. Though some western animation is crap in terms of how well the characters were designed (such as Family Guy, the Simpsons, ya' know, all of the disgusting cartoons on TV today), I do think that even the western animation that I hate looks better than anime - there's too many triangles in anime.

Thing is all anime looks the same. You can take a drawing of any character from any anime ever and still recognize it as an anime character. That is, it's easy to see whether a cartoon character is from Japan or not. No other country in the world has that.

There's also a lot of western animation that is utter crap, but then they have highlights such as Disney's awesome cartoons from before they went insane and did everything with 3D animation. Especially their greatest hits from the 80's and 90's are better (in terms of animation and aesthetic appeal) are way better than anime will ever be.

Another problem is that anime has a tradition for being low budget. This is why DBZ characters will stand completely still and move nothing except for their lips when they speak, and why it's so easy to tell when two different scenes have been drawn by two different animators.

I think it could make a good animated series but not "anime". Maybe more like 3D animation like Beowulf. But I agree elder scrolls should be translated into other mediums besides video games and books(?). That way cities can actually look like cities because the world would visually be in proper scale.

nothing should have an anime. nothing.

^ Too [censored] right. HEY MEDE SAN! WATCH OUT! THAT THALMORS USING TWIN DRAGON MOON STYLE APOCALYPSE BLADE STRIKE!!!

...actually, you know what? If they took the piss out of anime like that I would watch and effing revel in that [censored].
Get to it Todd.

As a guy with the profile pic I have, I'm gonna have to say no. I'm a fan of anime, but if TES is going to leave the gaming medium it's best bet would probably be a movie with real actors.

The Dunmer, Altmer, Argonians, Khajiit, Bosmer and Orsimer would all look like crap then. Cheap makeup techniques and animations. They would never have the budget of something like Avatar(not airbender version). TES made with real life actors would only look good IF they had a budget to spend on it. Anime can be cheap but even good anime can be done for a fairly low cost in relation to things like Avatar. Anime can be many things. It does not have to look like http://images.wikia.com/devilmaycry/images/b/bb/Dante_Anime.jpg or http://www.animeph.com/wallpaper-hellsing-ultimate-anime.jpg or even http://emorawr.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/2878123.jpg?

If TES was made into a movie I would only see it if it was done like District 9.

Family Guy is horrible but the Simpsons is pretty entertaining and downright hilarious at times. Although some of the humor is pretty lowbrow, it's much more sophisticated than you probably think.

I was raised unable to watch the Simpsons, and I've honestly never had the desire. I tried watching it once, but I just turned the channel - too much stupidity packed into a 30-minute show. lol

I wouldn't HATE the idea of a TES anime, but I would totally want it it be western styled with english-speaking voice actors. The TES series is, for the most part (I only say most to allow for some leeway), a western RPG series and I believe that it should stick to that type of style. I'm not a fan of the large eyed, single color/smooth skin, pointy/angular hair of many of the anime's I've seen. Not to mention the, as mentioned above, goofy scenes and actions that occur in such films or the over the top villans who pause entirly to give a speech or stand in rediculous ways when talking. Don't even get me started on the ones with english voice-overs (usually with the worst voice actors around). BUT!!!!! If they were to use a more western style behind it (bad example, but kind of like Martin Mystery,(Havent seen any others in a while)), it could turn out much better (art style wise). BTW, anyone know of a good wester anime sci-fi show? google only turns up westerns set in space.

CGI. No "anime". Sick of these anime stuff. They made Blade the cartoon anime! Meh!

If they do it they should do it like Record of Lodoss wars or Berserk, those 2 show that anime can be adpated to a believable western fantasy setting, without the over the top stuff some on these forums think anime to be (yes not all anime is Dragonball or Naruto).

Hell no

But I was thinking about making an animated (not anime) webseries about the lore of Skyrim, with one episode being about the night of tears, and the final episode probably being the great war.

I think Studio Shaft would be the best animation studio. Their work tends to be just as trippy as the TES lore itself.

I hope to Talos I never see a TES anime, but hypothetically, I think it could have a chance of coming out halfway decent if taken by the right company.

I'll be up front and say I'm not a huge fan of anime mostly because it's so popular. It's freaking everywhere, man. You can hardly do an image search for, say, "swords" without a bunch of anime stuff popping up. It gets annoying after a while.

That being said, though, I can get into it a bit if I'm in the right mindset, and there are a few anime series I genuinely enjoy. Death Note and Wolf's Rain being at the top. They're anime, but they're fairly realistic, mature, and for the most part not too over-the-top. If the Elder Scrolls series were treated more that, maybe I'd watch a TES anime.
However, if they were done like Final Fantasy or DragonBall Z with the crazy, brightly colored hair-do, ridiculously implausible weapons and costumes, and crazy ninja moves...that would make me die a bit inside.

I like the Elder Scrolls series as is, but if I had to pick, I think I would rather see a CGI or Western-style cartoon before a full blown TES anime. It could be done, but it would be treading on some very iffy territory for me.

I would much rather see a Game of Thrones style HBO series set in the Elder Scrolls. Imagine how amazing that could be!

yeah no thanks

Just go watch Berserk...

Game of Thrones with essential NPCs. I think TES hasn't got enough important characters to kill lige SoIaF.
Problem is, Game of Thrones is waaaay more realistic than TES, even LotR had only one guy in the main cast who was a wizard. It would be extremely difficult to keep the "realistic" touch of TES with that much magic that's gping on in the series. I fear this would turn into something like that one D&D movie with the purple lipstick guy.
