Anno: “I didn’t realize it, but I might have a knack for being a manager.”

Even this is said to be in the better category.

What is going on in this industry?

Both the buyer and the seller are to blame.

>>8

It’s a historic loss.

Being classmates with Anno and Shimamoto means that Yamaga has also passed sixty…

If I had continued being a creator without getting involved in management, I would have been able to maintain my dignity in my later years.

Did Akai barely manage to escape?

>>14

It’s not that I mean to say it’s extreme, but Akai has always been focused on game production.

I haven’t been involved with anime at all.

When there are too many staff members, I have the impression that this type tends to come together chaotically.

>>17

Was it like that from the beginning…?

I was wondering if it was really okay despite the significant achievements, but perhaps it was a form of self-discipline for the person.

If Yamaga is treated that way, what will happen to Okada…

You couldn’t really do much scriptwriting, right?

>>23

Despite having caused quite a few fatal scandals, they keep bouncing back due to their speaking skills…

Really a type like a monster or a creature.

>>21

Otaking is close friends with Kazuhiko Shimamoto…

Okada seems to have a level of recognition now just below Anno.

A con artist and trickster who had a keen eye for people.

>>30

All my friends nearby have changed, but he, whom I watched from afar, is just like he was during our student days…

I wonder if Anno could have created more works if it weren’t for the commotion around here, and I also think that this is precisely what led to the current Anno.

You’re the type that won’t do anything unless you feel like it, just like your personality suggests in “The Big Turnip,” Anno.

It seems that Gain came in with an annual income of 240 million yen just from royalties even now.

Why did they go bankrupt over this?

>>31

Because it was about to become a hotbed of crime…

>>42

What kind of story is this?

>>56

I won’t do it until the last minute, just like back in my student days, so it hasn’t really changed, Anno.

>>35

I can release another diet book.

>>35

Don’t forget the traditions of sexuality.

I think Yamaga has more talent for screenwriting than Anno.

I think they probably really dislike the annoying production troubles that come with making a TV anime.

He’s starting to talk about things like “going out with a boyfriend/girlfriend” and “getting off.”

I love the episode where Okada showed up uninvited at a screening of Shin Godzilla or something and started acting all high and mighty, so the staff pushed him onto Shimamoto.

I can’t really say anything about others, but there are a lot of people who can’t do anything without someone to control them…

>>43

Since I can’t ask Anno-san, I’ll ask Tsurumaki-san.

They teach carefully.

Stories are coming out more and more.

Anno is also causing a lot of trouble for others.

To be honest, when it comes to the interestingness of the work, Yamagata can easily blow away Shimamoto.

Considering the person’s character, Shimamoto’s big comeback victory.

It seems that FLCL has little income coming in, just from holding the rights.

It’s a shame that most of the active years in their 50s, which could be spent as directors and others, were consumed just by the Rebuild of Evangelion.

I made a dragon’s dentist just in case.

Tsurumaki is making a one-cour anime for the first time despite having the track record.

I remember when I visited the old Gainax studio, there were piles of various books on Tsurumaki’s desk, and it seemed like he was studying incredibly hard.

>>55

“Saying that no one is famous is a bit of an exaggeration.”

The biggest surprise in the mess around there is that Anno-kun actually had talent for administrative work and asset management…

>>58

He’s that kind of character, but he prepares everything properly when it comes to creating a work.

It seems that a director has to be capable of this much; that was an episode mentioned by the staff at the time.

The story about Anno running out of budget halfway through Nadia has become a legend of bravery.

The bizarre behavior of crying and screaming to make the staff work for free had become a funny story at Gainax.

In reality, they had already depleted the budget for the planned theatrical version, and the director has quit and run away from that.

The lives of the people involved in the theatrical version, who were completely abandoned by Gainax, have become chaotic.

“When you Google ‘Gainax Incident’, a lot of stuff comes up other than the one from 2019, and it’s amusing.”

As a mountain climber, Kinreko Otsuki is amazing.

>>62

The momentum of King Records anime in the late 90s was incredible, wasn’t it?

>>64

I think this is ridiculously big.

I have the impression that it was doing well until the time when it was still carrying the atmosphere of the bubble period after the collapse from its peak.

It’s amazing that Anno took the initiative to do something about it.

>>65

I think it’s because I could clearly see it would lead to a huge problem if I just left it alone.

I was lamenting that there are too many presidents who can’t read a balance sheet.

Well, a lot of software houses are going under.

In threads like this, there are usually conflicting stories that come up, but…

When you investigate in detail, you find that there is “both are nonsense” and “both are correct,” and it’s amazing that it’s rare for only one side to be nonsense.

That’s probably what reality is like.

If it were just one side being unilaterally at fault, it would have been easy…

It’s unrealistic to make both sides the same regarding the images.

I’m like an old man similar to Tetsuya Komuro; it’s not a work created solely by me.

Well, the current flow of the thread isn’t even about the matter of the thread image.

I tend to take the stories of those who speak of mere hearsay as if they were facts with a grain of salt.

>>80

The thread image also becomes a superhuman with a low self-evaluation…

Is that the thread image where they were showing off connections to a girl who aspires to be a voice actor?

But you guys really love Gundam Wing, don’t you?

>>82

Even though you’re highly motivated, the movie you looked to for reference in filmmaking was Go! Bears 2?

The story about Yamagata from the Reverse Char’s Friends Club was interesting.

Gundam is a genuinely serious work created with intent, and all subsequent works are merely playing in the soil that Gundam has provided.

Naturally, among them are Macross and War in the Pocket, which I was involved in.

>>87

That’s a bit too much of a 1st believer, though.

Well, in reality, Z couldn’t surpass the 1st and neither could ZZ, but…

The famous figures from Gainax have changed in various ways over the decades of the 80s, 90s, 00s, and 10s.

In the 80s and 90s, they were doing awesome things, but now they’re doing stupid stuff in the 10s, and it’s like they get completely denied because of it.

Now it’s a manga about flirting with a well-built female assistant.

>>93

If we advance too much in time, it will become an era where multiple assistants are hired.

It has become content that introduces the trends and tools of the time.

The top scenario was also written by Yamaga, and Anno was said to have cried; he really is a top-notch storyteller.

In the end, they flew away without returning the money.

What happened after that?

What does it mean that a stranger has become the president…?

Gainax? They became a vegetable shop.

Next time, Tatsuya Egawa will make an appearance!

I feel it’s a bit sad to be called a close friend when being referred to by the Okada Toshio department…

Okada being excluded from Anno’s wedding shows just how much he’s disliked.

>>104

Even though Kumeda, who had almost no contact, was called…

>>104

I haven’t seen you in 30 years.

>>106

It was sad that the side that used to click their tongue became the side that got clicked at.

It seems that the frequency of serialization has increased recently.

It’s a story about how you can’t run an anime company with a normal mindset.

There are too many crazy people among animators in the first place.

By the time Okada realized, he was already acting like that, so I don’t really understand what he did.

>>108

Didn’t you do something like a producer in the beginning?

I had money and good communication skills.

I can only know about the internal affairs of Gainax through hearsay.

I feel like knowing the raw information would only make me feel worse.

Is Studio Gainax the only one surviving in the local Gainax scene?

I remember that Gainax was one of the companies involved in the creation of Shin Eva.

I mean, the person from PriMe was at a level where they became a director at Gainax, huh?

The story that producers and con artists are akin to each other is often heard in other industries as well.

There are claims that Yamaga went crazy after the debt from the Nadia movie, and Anno is also to blame.

It’s said that Okada wasn’t invited to Anno’s wedding, but he doesn’t attend any weddings or funerals at all.

The only time I ever left the house was for my daughter’s wedding.

>>118

Uh, I didn’t hear about that.

People who can present and raise money when one’s name is not well-known are important.

The more I know, the more I wonder who this Okada person is…

>>120

My parents were selling fake Lacoste products and making money from a new religious group, so we were well-off.

With that wealth, he was devouring women left and right, but he finally could no longer stay in Osaka…

I like the story about the 2 million yen in the thermos that the heartless old man was talking about during the forced investigation.

You can clearly understand the reason why Okada is genuinely disliked.

Because I sold the rights to a baffling company.

I ended up having to pay an outrageous amount to buy it back.

The thread picture is an incomprehensible performance of running away to a Zen temple…

Shimamoto has a good-natured or reliable vibe, which is probably why he can depict Aoi Honoo.

The theater Nadia had used up the TV budget, so when they honestly told the main contractor Tack, “We don’t have any money,” a higher-up from Tack pondered and then said, “I will entrust you with this budget that we obtained for the theater work.”

So, the people at Gainax were impressed and thought, “Is there such a way to do this!” and took most of the budget, outsourcing the rest (I think it was Magic Bus) to create “Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water.”

Of course, I was extremely angry.

Even “Evangelion” reportedly didn’t bring in significant profits for Gainax, which speaks to the dark side of the industry.

On the contrary, has Shimamoto been like that character since his student days?

>>133

It’s just too funny that they’re really still in character.

During my student days, I made my debut as a manga artist, and Anno-kun was also looking on from a distance in surprise.

Anno and the others weren’t just doing whatever they wanted with their work.

Okada is competent as the person in charge of bringing in money during the launch phase.

>>136

As a speculator, he’s competent, so once he gets on track, he becomes a nuisance.

>>176

That’s just what Okada is saying, and in the first place, the ones who are great are the ones who invested.

Aoi Honoo is extremely passionate and depicts feelings of inferiority, but it’s worth noting that Shimamoto debuted as a professional first, and he was a manga artist who had quite a hit from the start…

It’s true that Anno went to get an autograph from Shimamoto during his student days.

>>138

I watch the drama every week ♥ I still cherish that signed book ♥

Anno is exposed by his wife.

Before I knew it, there were many sketchy companies like Tohoku Gainax popping up.

Anno-kun is also astonished.

>>139

I was making various mysterious companies, but what is the goal of this…?

I’m going to start a company, release a new product, raise funds, and then vanish just like that?

>>146

Since the main house became hopeless, Fukushima (now Studio Gainax) became independent as an anime studio.

Akai’s de facto personal office is Yonago Gainax.

It’s not even a mysterious company.

Tohoku Gainax is still better than the original company, where an unknown sex offender became the president, as they are properly creating works.

>>140

Isn’t it great? It’s Gainax, you know? After devouring a ton of aspiring voice actors, it ended up in a criminal case…

As a result, several projects were blown away, and the reputational damage was seriously no joke.

Even if I own the rights to FLCL, is there anything I can do from there…?

>>141

Hmm, alternative and progressive…

Around here, the way Anno rushes around the old Gainax area and is quick to respond when called by other major directors shows he can work far beyond what his style might suggest.

The current Anno-kun is an amazing guy who creates anime with the money he made from real estate.

>>145

I’m in a position where I can earn by doing what I love.

A company that creates eroge using its female employees as models is quite unique.

“Shimamoto-kun hasn’t changed, has he?”

Anno’s heavy words are nice, aren’t they…?

Animation companies are basically suspicious…

In the end, it’s impossible to make a living solely from anime…

>>152

Even director Tomino himself has had various struggles and sarcastically says he was so broke that he didn’t even own his own house until the Gundam royalties started coming in.

Tsurumaki is actually amazing.

In a world where even being an animator isn’t a stable job if you don’t have a strong family background.

>>156

I hate the industry where my boss says to rely on my parents for support until I start earning.

I wish I could have done nothing…

I often see Fukushima Gain’s name pop up in the end credits.

Yamaga seemed uninterested in anime, but they like Gundam.

After gathering the scattered rights and resolving various issues, Ikari-kun, who communicated what happened, might actually be quite remarkable.

>>161

Since the previous company went under, it made it even more like a matter for someone else for the people in the thread.

If anything, there was a time when Anno himself was laughing it up while shooting Gamera 1999, and it was terrible.

>>163

Because they did the same thing in the documentary about the self-made Shin Kamen Rider, nothing has changed.

If you’re fundamentally going to expose the truth, take it intentionally in a way that suggests discord to pique the viewer’s interest.

>>166

Well, these days many people are put off by that, and the poor quality of the new camera also led to a backlash…

>>167

Please stop creating stories in your mind and imposing them on me…

Anno is a person who doesn’t perform well unless he’s under pressure.

The reason I can’t quite hate Anno is around this point.

No, I can’t come to like you.

If you just got married and became happy, that is a natural reward.

>>165

Who are you…?

In an action movie like Shin Kamen, denying the choreography can lead to fatalities, so we’re quite seriously doing insane things…

In anime, as long as the artwork can be fixed, it can somehow work out, so there is fundamentally no environment where someone who can manage a budget loosely can grow.

Since I don’t use paint or film now, it’s even more so.

After the documentary aired, the staff was making explanations on social media during the turmoil.

It’s really tough, isn’t it… that’s what happened.

I should have just stuck to writing the script.

Since the super old man told me that I’m just a parody artist, I’ve been able to let go of my doubts.

>>174

The grandfather

Did the super old man become a remake shop owner with this in mind?

If that’s the case, then the super old man should release Kushana.

Are there any otaku from that time?

If it were an otaku from that time, they would be even more worked up and furious.

>>180

An otaku from that time would get angry.

but

The otaku from back then have become old men and have calmed down, so they don’t get angry anymore.

Thank you for handling the financial matters.

It always seems difficult… I wonder what’s so hard about it… I’ll try it a bit.

I want to emulate the aggressiveness of Director Anno, who is capable of such things.

>>181

Was it the Studio Ghibli producer who advised me that if I don’t study management as is, I won’t be able to do what I want?

I guess I had a proper connection with good people too.

I wonder what the likes of Yamaga and Sadamoto are making a living from now that they’re over sixty.

>>182

Bread and

Rice and such.

I always enjoy it, so I like Anno.

Looking at the various mishaps of people in today’s world, Okada seems to be doing better.

It seems that O-sada still has a membership in color, so maybe she’s getting some penis.

Mr. Kanemoto had work on Grendizer, so it should be fine.
