Cleanime? Clean Anime?

Hello, y'all out there, artists especially!

I really love to draw, especially a type of art I call "cleanime". Cleanime is basically anime without all that yucky nudity. Of all anime, only about 5-10% of it is clean. I am part of that 5%, but am I alone?


(For those of you who draw "cleanime", I would like some help. I realized a couple of days ago that my drawings just... aren't good: period. I would like to improve my drawing, but I'm not sure where to start. If you CAN help me, please imagine I have never drawn anime/cleanime before.)

Read the whole post by the OP, people. They're asking if they're the only one out there (at least on PMC i think) that draws clean anime? I'd guess that's all of you reading this.

Cipher_PunkYou're fighting a strawman. I did not make that statement.
My statement was that the dirty anime are considered to be the most popular because they have the largest fanbases. This is not a stereotype; you admitted it yourself and know it to be true.


Excuse me, but:
Cipher_Punk
SilverKyttenWhere on earth did you get those stats from, kiddo? Most anime is actually very clean.

lol no


Yes, you did make that statement - Or rather, lack of any other statement.
Why are the dirty animes the most popular? Because adults have money - And adults like to watch adult things.
That doesn't mean that most anime is dirty, no matter how big the dirty anime fanbasses are. And, yes, saying that all anime is dirty - Or even that most is dirty - is stereotyping. It's like saying "Jews have big noses." Yeah, some of them do - Yes, that's what you think of when you think "Jewish guy" - A guy with a largish nose and a .. oh, what's it called .. Yamicha? Something like that .. Right? That's where my mind goes - But it's just a stereotype, same with dirty anime.

Cipher_PunkYou may be a fan of anime that are not 'dirty' but this makes you the minority of the fanbase. You do not speak for the majority of anime fans, nor are you an accurate portrayal of the fanbase.


Have I once said that I speak for anyone other than myself? No, I don't think so .. Nor have I said that I portray the fanbase. You're going way off topic, here. What I'm saying is that the OP's original statement of "5-10% of anime is clean" is way wrong.



Thank you, come again.

I'd think that about 90% of (what you'd say are) minor titles (clean), would win the majority vote over the 10% that's considered dirty.

To call it the minority of media produced means nothing.

Knowing that it is the Majority of media consumed means something - and the majority of anime media consumed is rife with filth.

SilverKyttenJust because the popular ones are "dirty," doesn't mean the majority of them are.


But that is exactly my point.

The popular ones are dirty, and they have become the icons of the genre.

You can rattle off a list of as many minor titles as you would like, but it does not change the fact that the entire genre has a reputation due to the popularization of the dirtier titles.

Those titles would not be considered the 'popular' ones were they not exactly what the anime-crowd has a reputation of enjoying.

Game. Set. Match.

I'd think that about 90% of (what you'd say are) minor titles (clean), would win the majority vote over the 10% that's considered dirty.

That's like saying because -no- exists, all other movies are also -no-.

Anime isn't nothing but nudity!
Sure, some anime has nudity but to say 5-10% of anime is "clean" is stupid!
Some unbelievable anime have better story than nearly all the shows on TV and movies, better romance, better comedy, better action! Your statement is false. Next time, look at the facts!

You disappoint me...
Never before have I been offended this much!
(Now I must go and cry in a corner...)

Anime all she/he asked for was a list? are you going to cry or prove him/her wrong?

Prove him/her wrong of course!!!
Look at successful animes:

Angel Beats!: A beautiful story that gave my emotions a rollercoaster!
Nope: Even though this has fanservice, it isn't it's main aim. It has funny humour and fantastic action.
Attack on Titan: One of the most action-packed anime I have ever seen.
I could continue for literally years...

Usually, you find the most dirty stuff on Google Images. There's some dirty anime and all, but through experience, if you're uncomfortable watching it, then just drop it.
Anyway, I join you in drawing cleanime. If you're looking for help, you can find a bunch of tutorials online, but you might run across dirty stuff on the way. It's the Internet, all I can say. lol

Give me a list of "dirty" animes, and I'll top it with a list of "clean" animes. We can even include mangas, if you want. Just because the popular ones are "dirty," doesn't mean the majority of them are. You have to actually look past the top ten lists.

I'll give you a top 3 list.
#1: Angel Beats
#2: Hetalia (My Opinion)
#3: Azumanga Daioh



A Chinese Ghost Story
Ah! My Goddess!
Ayane's High Kick
Card Captors (North American edit)
Card Captor Sakura
The Castle of Cagliostro
CLAMP Campus Detectives
Digimon (North American TV)
Dog of Flanders
Dragonball Z (North American TV)
Fancy Lala
Fantastic Adventures of Unico
Gatchaman
Grave of the Fireflies
Hime-chan no Ribbon
I Can Hear the Sea

And that's not even all that *I've* seen.

I would suggest visiting a comic store of some sort (Or perusing the interwebs for online stores), and finding a "how-to-draw anime" book.. That's where most artists start - And it REALLY helps.
