Okada claimed that animators are so poor even though the industry attracts more money than ever because the production committee caps the budgets on individual anime titles. This is apparently because of a culture of corporate collusion, where the lead investing company determines beforehand the highest amount every other company in the committee can spend proportionally.

Okada elaborated that because control over the copyright is proportional to the amount of investment, companies will bid to become the highest investor (this is usually 40%). Once they attain this status, they have the power to determine the budget. For example, if the lead investor spends $4 million, the budget would be capped at $10 million.

After the budget has been determined proportionally, production committees will not accept larger investments from outsider (usually foreign) companies. A large investment would be split into separate projects to keep those companies lower down in the production committee. For example, Okada said that if a Chinese company offered to pay for an entire $10 million budget, the production committee would turn their investment into $50,000 chunks across 20 different projects. In other words, to maintain control and profits, the Japanese companies on anime production committees are incentivized to use the surplus from foreign investment to fund other projects instead of increasing an individual title's budget.

More anime is not bad, the problem is overextended studios that are not able to maintain quality, for this more money is needed yes. In this you are right, but simply increasing the investment cap would naturally lead to studios still over exploiting animators, but having shows look better, while possibly being more generic and Hollywood like. The real answer is unionization, which would lead to raising the investment cap and increasing quality, as workers are not over extended.

But since at this point unionization seems to be impossible, I'm going to go the tankie route, and say that a popular front with the petit bourgeois that wants to keep production budgets low is best, so animators will have to be sacrificed to maintain democracy 😞

where did we go wrong bros

Everyone focusing on the "more anime coming out" part and not on "animators get paid shit as usual".



 

I remember watching random episodes on adult swim 20 or so years ago and thinking it was cool, but damn, I didn’t realize this show was as interesting, deep, and meaningful with characters who grew or developed with such novel time appropriate scifi or western plots.


So it wasn’t just a theme song after all.

You might also enjoy Samurai Champloo

>>18599
seconding this. i actually like samurai champloo better even though it has slightly worse animation quality due to being an early digital anime

so I read the oldboy manga in one sitting after watching the movie. What a joke of an ending that was. Needless to say, I liked the film's interpretation far better. It would have been interesting to see the Spielberg-directed American adaptation that was supposedly going to faithfully adapt the manga, though.
The person who decided to do that shot-for-shot Hollywood remake of the Korean movie was fucking stupid.

Spike Lee's remake is hilarious. Don't know who decided the main antagonist should be a britbong. Hope the full 3 hour cut is released someday.

Also the twist, I feel I have to explain it so other people hopefully won't waste theirtime tie reading this crap


So the protagonist and villain were in the same elementary school together, the villain was ugly and lonely but genuinely didn't care what other kids said about him, But one day the antagonist had to sing in front of the whole class and other kids laughed at him but he didn't care, however the protagonist cried because he was moved by the song and could understand the loneliness behind it, the villain was then unable to function in society because he couldn't tolerate the idea of someone knowing how empty he felt and inside and it destroyed him as a person

Watch legend of the galactic heroes

Anyone watched Jormungand? I did years ago as a teen and got into it since it started airing around the time I finished watching Black Lagoon. I remember seeing people on /a/ calling it a poor man's Black Lagoon as well, but thinking back on it I think that comparison works for general things but overall I'd say they're different thematically. I was planning on giving it a rewatch (mainly because I'd forgotten what happened in it) since I remember hating how the show made the American feds look incompetent in the 2nd season and now a show where glowies get outsmarted by an armsdealer sounds hilarious to me.

Stop trying to submit everything to your political ideology.
Anyway, its pretty good. Absolute banger opening song, decent action and some of the best girls of all time.

Has anybody else noticed a general uptick in sentiment against tomboy or masculine female characters and vice versa? It seems as if having a muscular or domineering woman in your story gets you a fair amount of backlash.
I don't really want to shit on fem women because well there is plenty of ways to do that well or bad but it seems like just including one will get you called a fag nowadays or even worse.

I haven't. Tomboy threads are fucking annoying THOUGH.

Or any repetitive dump threads, really, or dump threads in general.

>>18318
you're misreading it,the ending is litterally "I loved you how you are the entire time" and it's clear since the start both like each other and are just shitting themselves when it comes to sealing the deal,it's just that Jun's reason is very silly.

>>18343
That's good
