Typical American cartoon trying too hard to be like Japanese anime

Upon switching channels, I came upon Monsuno.

Japanese anime has a quality. Mouth movements, body language, action scenes, etc.

This shows that the creators are anime fans and try to draw like Japanese people but lack the quality. Looks too cheap and try-hard.

Couldn't stand watching it. Americans need to stay with American style cartoons. Never will they ever get close to the quality Japanese people create. Same with 3D animation.

Story, action scenes, speaking, special effects look like crap in Monsuno. Not worth my time.
