That’s called a “kids can latch onto anything despite quality and in a cultural landscape where the medium is limited to that specific genre, they will easily choose that genre out of lack of other options” combined with “Nostalgia is a hell of a drug, especially in a a demographic who has lost touch with what’s
in”…

Get down off your high tower before you get a nosebleed.

The whole “backgrounds are way better than the animation” is pretty true to the original cartoon though lol.

Maybe we have clung to those cartoons, and why they have millions of fans all over the world, are still very much beloved, and have had the longevity they’ve had, is because they weren’t as “lifeless” and “cheap” as you think they are? Maybe us 70's-80's kids are smarter than you think we were and actually saw…

Sympathy not needed. I liked He-Man and G.I. Joe just fine :)
