In the vein of Rilakkuma, Pan Dorobou is one of those kids-oriented shows with more luxurious staff than most megahits. Takahiko Kyougoku leading, Chieko Nakamura as the art director, main animators like Shingo Takenaka... Seihantai's designer Mako Miyako already snapped animating episode #01

Little disappointed in ANN's headline here. Tsuda's point was still made, and Japan has now made it very clear that actor's voices do, in fact, belong to them. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Reactions to the Chiikawa movie announcement are one of the funniest examples of how myopic the view of vocal anime fans overseas is. Trying to frame it in relation to Kagurabachi and painting it as a lesser project, when Chiikawa is a social phenomenon on a different level altogether? Lol

"Sayonara Lara" is the World Masterpiece Theatre for a 2026 audience, a gorgeous, colorful array of an old story that has the immediacy of the Hans Christian Andersen "The Little Mermaid" faerie tale while giving it room to become more than itself with new aesthetic, direction, and energy.

Abuse of power comes in all types of productions. But it’s especially egregious to see when smaller productions abuse the vulnerability and eagerness of young artists just trying to find any work and build portfolios in these uncertain times, with grand promises of connections and future profit

Intent & texture are disappearing from anime's linework. There are many factors : tools & technology (digital douga, especially in practice), the idea of "good animation" straying away from the drawings, and even mentorship - younger generations learning in an era where this aspect isn't prioritized
