On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

Regarding point 1, I have not checked but I would not be surprised if Flashpoint has them archived. They have so much. https://flashpointarchive.org/

That's super cool. Thanks for sharing, somehow I was completely unaware of this

Even if you're on Mac or Linux, I totally recommend getting a virtual machine running Windows just for this. It's amazing being able to go back and not only play your favorite cartoon network flash games, alongside ones you never knew existed outside of your country, while also being able to play other games outside of that sphere.

Even if you don't like flash games, you can find countless flash animations as well and view them in all their original glory. I know you can find some ones like I think the Ed Edd n' Eddy highschool van What Is Love? animation is in there. That, or I'm thinking a fan series EEnE highschool spin-off intro being there. Regardless, it's absolutely worth checking out.

Edit:

Felt as though I had to share these ancient Internet relics.
