Went back to anime recently, and they feel like they're all becoming the same thing, least checking random ones through Crunchyroll for some months now. Art style is becoming pretty same-y even for older, still running shows, story setting and pacing also seem to be more uninventive than ever, and in action animes, thunder or similar-looking effects sound like always have the same audio track playing. I wonder if those series are already using AI as I remember seeing being proposed in a news a while back.
