Since it's still early enough in the year for me to actually keep track of this, I'm gonna take a cue from some friends, and do my own completed media thread for 2024. We'll see how this looks at the end of the year

In light of how awful things are likely to get in the immediate future, and for my own sanity, I think I'm gonna be mostly done with Twitter and largely stick to Bluesky so if you need anything from me, that's where I'll be Stay safe everyone

I think weโ€™re well into an anime industry dark period as it has affected the core workforce for years and has now finally trickled down into a visibly tangible way for audiences where multiple series now are rushed out by heads with remarkably lower standards than prior years.
Blue lock situation is not funny anymore, it is very sad. I personally know many animators from new episodes โ€” and most of them are good animators, some are excellent... As someone who worked on one ep in 1st season, where situation with schedule was similar... I remember that I made several layout cuts with movement back then, nothing crazy, but all was transformed to stills. That was production focus, because there was no time and people to work on it on later stages (douga, shiage); To all people who go and blame animators, harass and make fun of them, please stop, it is extremely not fair, they cannot change the overall situation and they are trying their best. You can see that even though quality is affected by schedule, drawings are most of the time consistent and good. They know how to draw and animate well. They don't have a chance to. So ultimately, all your concerns should be directed at Kodansha and Blue Lock production committee. Not necessarily you can change anything (since its japanese corporations, they won't probably care) but audience can ask questions about massive quality drop with such popularity and revenue that those corporations on top of actual animation studio are making. If you have read through this wall of text, thank you. I'm not expecting to stop this whole thing by one tweet, but still wort trying to get this message to some animation fans, I believe those are following me.

Kids call each other gooners etc for the same reason our gen called each other gay, because kids are nasty little shits looking for vulnerabilities to exploit to move up in the pecking order, and you can reliably bank on sex anxieties when your peers are all going through puberty

The thing about the trolley problem is that it only really makes sense in abstract moral settings. When you try to apply it to real world issues it opens up basic questions like "why are all these people on the tracks?" and "shouldn't someone be held accountable?"

Animation deserves so much more respect and recognition. Studios need to pay artists more for the incredible work they do to bring to life such beautiful stories.
โ€˜THE WILD ROBOTโ€™ has grossed around $270M worldwide. It cost $78M to produce.

Still can't believe the "hiding black actors faces" in posters and movies stuff was a xenophobic lie perpetuated by Ian Miles Cheong. xitter.cf/laha_jeet/status/17862โ€ฆ

Are you even a Shonen fan if you haven't read at least one batshit insane axe ending?
I get the idea of โ€œI donโ€™t want to read this series if it gets cancelledโ€ But to me, some of my favorite moments came from cancelled series. I think many of them are still worth your time regardless
