try not to compare western and especially AMERICAN-HOLLYWOOD products to Japanese or asian ones.
asian products (or any product for that matter) have never, N E V E R had the same distribution, worldwide relevance or revenue as hollywood-produced products. comparing them is never accurate

Well this is Hideaki Anno, he’s really especial in his way to say things.
But I see where he is coming from. Many Asian countries are growing at great speed in several areas of entertaiment (not only animation) and Japan, honestly, is kind of stagnant lately...
I dont feel Japan is producing as many mind-blowing things…

the kids laughing ... omg I cant

which string? I’m not replying :´(

idk whi stage plays are always better in terms of characters. movie makers need to step their game

they look AMAZING. I just wish that characters looked this good in movies or doramas
in musicals caharacters are always so accurately characterized and then in movies and dramas they totally suck

I always find curious how many love hotels there are and how are they so special and equipped with so many gadgets and then you read the depressing sex rates of the population there...
it seems like something few enjoy

I know many who go together so that their damn kids dont screw everything accidentally going into the room or screaming they need something

to be honest that seems to be a problem in America. Hotels rented per hour or directly made only for sex are quite nice in most countries. And they tend to have nice gardens, etc

Hollywood made? I think I’ve heard it’s “antisocial” instead, so you’re probably right.
anyway, no one claims to be a pro here

yep. and therefore people who didnt know them “in person” didnt know they existed.
That’s why the fact that we know about so many of them now makes you lose faith in humanity faster lol

so many artists claim doing things for the pussy (typical guy who says he started playing guitar to get some) I’m really scared of you guys X´D

I watched Kenshin without facepalming. That does it for me

watching it for Kamiki :3

now really if you really really want to know how much pain is to draw manga, just watch Aoi Honou. No romatic views. just pain lol (and lots of humour) and with real mangaka name dropping

oh Takarazuka has one!

the real question is why japanese companies keep making so many head in a hole boards

omg I know!!!!!! how on earth they love faxes so much
They need to understand that the rest of the world dont use them anymore and they’re making corporate communication with them really really difficult *cry

wel societies have the right to make mistakes and learn.
all do. and talking about mental health just look at how people with mental health issues were treated 60 years ago and now. Thankfully as humans and societies we learn and change things that damage us.

ad the problem is that anyone claimig that they need some free time and time for themselves will be seen as a slacker.
It’s the way in which each society see things. That’s why you have countries that reduce working hours and give more and more benefits and paid leaves to employees and ountries who continue to make…

I’m so glad they’re taking these measures and talking about it.
Big part of this is because mental health in Japan is not actually the best and people are still reluctant to ask for that kind of help.
Another problem is this deep-rooted idea of “not being an incovenience” and preferring to take this measure than…

but this kind of assholes dont want to be truly popular in the sense of “I’m actually liked for what I am and I have friends/acquaintances/love inteests) they have some sort of compulsion for exerting control, manipulation on people. The thing is people are not that stupid and sooner or later they realize and when…
