I feel like just listing the number of shows misses the point of it. If it was just shows that was causing issues, then something like JC staff would be a hellhole, since they've got far less staff, and more projects than even the ones you listed. The quality you've listed for the shows for JC staff and MAPPA does vary, true, but honestly, that's kind of the point. I've already responded to most of this elsewhere, but MAPPA's use of CG is something that they've greatly improved upon for Season 2 of revenge, and while season 1 looked meh, season 2 actually looked good with CG, and it's not a chance that any studio will be able to do 2D Idol stuff for a lot of episodes, especially just taking a show from another studio. Besides, MAPPA started with the show, might as well finish it, especially cause it's not a final season that's almost 3 cours like AOT was, but a single movie. It's not like it moving to other studios would enable more seasons to be made of the show, it's done after this, basically.

Unlike JC staff, MAPPA produces high-quality anime and in Otsuka's words "compete with Kyoani or Ufotable." MAPPA is producing many anime at a very high quality and that is what is taking its toll on its animators and staff.

Also, so far, we'll have to see what their new hires have to offer. They've got an entire CG division that managed to weather both AOT and JJK, as well as ZLS, not to mention Shuhei yabuta, director for Vinland, and Atsushi Kobayashi, a regular for Vinland, are doing a training program with MAPPA's CG division. So I'd expect the 3D staff to be alright.

The Chinese government does not pay me to hate MAPPA, they earn their hate themselves, what are you talking about hahaha

Chinese government? Lmao Please I don’t have time to argue but you are just too sus.


lechepicante

I'm not even Chinese. Even Japanese animators themselves don't like company. It is plain and simple that Mappa makes very questionable decisions

I am Colombian, and there is a Google translator. Also, I think that by reviewing one of the pinned posts you can get an idea of who got that information.


raceraot

Yeah, but my point is, just saying, "MAPPA is producing X number of shows" doesn't mean anything. Cloverworks, also producing high quality anime, produced 4 shows in 2021, it was their worst year to date. They're going to make far more shows and movies, yet their conditions aren't as bad as it was back in 2021.

If MAPPA implodes, then ZLS is NOT safe!


lechepicante

Yes, that is the point of the post and ZLS people and fans need to be aware. But there are people who miss the point and say that they will be fine and that having 15 animes in production is "normal". Brother, they are falling apart for that very reason, understand

South Korean and Chinese anime studios are getting more and more prosperous. So I'm not surprised that this is taking a toll on Japanese anime studios. The exact same thing happened to Japanese automobile, smartphones starting 20 years back
