Anyways my friend thinks it would be funny if you joined her discord server discord.gg/ale

@Minmarion Nothing happened in particular

This account is being retired. It was intended as a small thing for making fun of animation misconceptions and instead it just turned into something that spread misconceptions itself. I don’t enjoy running it anymore and there’s nobody who I trust to run the account who wants it.

An appalling statement that ignores the actually pretty simple solution to avoid getting called out for your awful, below already abysmal industry standard payouts, which is not having awful, below already abysmal industry standard payouts. Sure feels like Netflix got upset, tho

@OhPugChamp I’m a ms not a mr and I’m doing okay thanks for asking, I’ve just been a little busy so I haven’t been posting as much lol

@Animation_Takes Havent seen your tweets in a bit, how are u mr. bad animation takes

Explanation: anime will never look one to one with the manga because they have different intentions. Anime is meant to move. Also literally the next frame after the one they screencapped looks perfectly fine

Explanation: animation is a ton of work and takes a long time, trying to have a single person animate a whole series is absurd. In addition, Toyotaro, the other person mentioned is not an animator at all, he’s the artist of the super manga and his art is... questionable

Stick to hip hop news 😭😭

Explanation: There’s more people that do animation on aot than just one guy called “the animator”, and while an animator did quit from from the studio, it has nothing to do with 8 pages being added to the manga, it’s because of the terrible working conditions at studio MAPPA

"I went through hard times at my job so it's only fair others do too" is one of the saddest, most unfortunate mindsets, and the reason nothing ever changes in these poor situations

These struggles are common across the industry (although exacerbated at MAPPA) and it's decades of exhaustion and underpay coming to a fever pitch. The anime industry shouldn't be just for people willing to overwork, even if that is how it's always been. twitter.com/AnimeNewsNet/s…

The paneling and layout of manga panels is done to work in that medium, whereas the storyboarding of an animation is done in such a way that works best for animation. An anime storyboard which is identical to the manga is often one which has failed to make necessary changes 2/2

Explanation: That episode in particular was barely holding it together IIRC, but in general the point of an adaptation is to ADAPT (as in, make necessary changes to) a source material in order to make it work better in the new medium. 1/2

It’s posts like these that make me wonder if every post really needs an explanation lmao.
