Because some people including comrades like anime.
Also, as art style it is objectively superior to all other comparable styles, evidenced plenty by easiness of creation at the same level of skill - it always look better and make expressing motion and emotions easier, making it proletarian style. Even more visible in how even commercial manga creators in its homeland are some of the most exploited and crunched people there.
I assume the implication is that Anime as it exists today would no longer exist. We can make up an idealized vision of Anime as simply an “art style” but the reality is that it’s a multi million dollar industry that exploits it’s workers and is used to push overwhelmingly problematic content. If it ceased to exist this is a net gain.
Again, the only one who is conflating style with industry and some of its content is you, nobody argue against the removal of exploitative industry, but i see the narration about the style all the time.
Somehow i don’t see the posts about removing anything other, it is always just manga.
EDIT: typos. Also it is going to stay anyway, China already produce more manga than Japan and with better quality.
I made no mention of art style, you brought that up. I simply mean the anime industry and it’s problematic practices and tropes is inherently flawed in many ways, and if it were to be banned or dismantled, it would be a good thing. And just because China does it that doesn’t make it suddenly ok, the root issue still remains.
I know that a lot of comrades like Anime, and there isn’t anything wrong with that, but it would clearly be a good thing for it to go, or at least change drastically to the point that all that remains is the art style, nothing more.
Yes, I make no mention of the art style, when I hear Anime I think of the industry, not the art.
Edit: If you see what the image in the post actually talk about, it is referring to the way the current industry operates, and how nobody would be willing to make anime the way its produced now under socialism, which I 100% believe will be the case.
I guess you agree with me that anime would be produced ethically and with better content under socialism and that society without anime would not be an all round win, but a loss for the culture and expression?
A society without anime sounds like an all-round win to me.
The silent downvotes worry me, this is factually a true statement, what gives.

Yes, the exploitation there is less too. Also there is way less questionable content, though the liberalism is similar.
