Making anime isn't easy! Not only is it a highly skilled profession, but loads of talented people are trying to break in. P.A. Works, the studio behind anime Shirobako, is now hiring for whatever it's making next spring, and the hourly animator salary is not so good.
Many anime studios tend to look like regular, bland offices. They're functional, which is fine, but lack personality and style. The new headquarters for anime studio P.A. Works is functional, too, but it also looks quite nice.
There are lots of visual gags in anime. Some are funny! Some are not. But few are this biting about the anime industry itself.
Ever wonder how an anime is made?
We are now six weeks into the fall anime season, and with 50 shows on the air it can be more than a little difficult to know which new ones to watch. Luckily, we at Kotaku East are here to help with our recommendations.
