The current My Little Pony TV show (and the 3 feature length films) is still primarily put together via Flash 8.

I don't see cartoons, animes and animated graphs dying anytime soon.

Take a look at some of Adam Phillips work if you want to see some glorious flash animations.

They're great! But they're great in spite of Flash's limitations, not because Flash is a great tool for animators. Adam Phillips' built-for-Flash examples are also fairly old.

A bunch of basic tooling present in other animation systems, like virtual cameras, motion blur & particle effects are missing.
