like, there’s definitely a calarts bias in the animation industry, but if you’re gonna criticize a pattern in the art styles of modern shows, you should, yknow, make sure your examples actually went to calarts. i saw someone mentioning ok ko and i’m like no???? ian jq didn’t go there???

honestly, i’m more convinced that the reason modern shows look similar to one another has less to do with the calarts monopoly and more to do with people doing what’s popular.
