"Anime is...straight from Japan, totally unexpected" I know it's tying separate thoughts into one sentence, but it almost feels like the commercial is being a sarcastic smartass lol
cmm07r Well, when this commercial was made, most anime were unexpected. I remember the days where you could pop in any anime DVD/ VHS and instantly be hooked just off the fact that it was anime. Those days are looong gone now.
cmm07r Considering how most commercials are made it is totally unintentional or in fact totally sarcastic. It is because mostly no one care, and probably only persons what read it were author and VA guy.
cmm07r Anime is just a Japanese translation to animation, they use the word for any kind of animation they see.
Quincy
But that isn't in Japanese here. On west people use this word to describe only Japanese animation.
cmm07r U do realize anime is chinese cartoons and thus from china right? some animes are also from taiwan. those animes are different from the normal chinese cartoons and should be called taiwanese picture dramas.
Shiro Bako made me not want to give up on my ambitions.
Funny when you realize that a lot of really bad anime like Glasslip, Mars of Destruction, Isuca, and Unlimited Fafnir also had pretty much the same amount of people working behind the it. Like...that's a lot of effort and money for something that really didn't exactly turn out a good response. I know not everything's a hit, but with Shirobako showing us that this amount of work is needed to make a single anime, it makes you think what the people who were making those "bad anime" were thinking when making it.
Rookie animators in Japan got REALLY low wage, existence of those rubbish anime provide them working opportunity and experiences, which somehow helps the industry ... even if it's not really working
Carlton Lee Fair enough, I suppose. But I would definitely not want my first project to be Fafnir, the show plagued by horrifying CGI whatever the fuck those are. (They're called dragons, but they don't even look like them. Thanks anime.)
***** my guess is they did, at the time, stand behind their work and genuinely believe it was good, and wanted to put the effort in for it. If they didn't think that, I would've guessed the projects would've never gotten finished; at least, not without greatly inconsistent quality (a la Jiggly Heaven lol). After it was all finished, or at least until rather late in production, may have been when these people saw how poorly it was received, and either they disagreed ("you just don't understand my art!" lol), brushed it off, hoped future episodes or something would change the critics' minds, or they saw/understood the points being made and maybe regretted some of the past decisions made (as I'd say, by that point, no matter what, it's too late to change too much). These people probably (or at least should) have kind of thick shells though; being in a position like where they are, they're going to get criticism, no matter what, even if it's an extremely good show. They're probably at least somewhat prepared for at least some level of criticism.
Jacob Huempfner in my opinion, i believe that most of those low quality work are caused by the lack of budget. As mentioned in the animation (or do they?) the amount of money for production is decided by the sponsor or anyone above. when they decide that the project won't be a cash-printer, they would simply want to make money with the least amount of cost... which leads to a huge amount of rubbish moe-anime e.g Fafnir, while some of them could be a great anime (e.g. I.S 2nd season... just wtf happened???) if those people above read the proposal / original work carefully, but it is hard for them to learn about that as if they never learn about MS actually need no legs.
***** Also, when you watch a bad show, or rather a show you dislike alot, remember that no creator wants to make a bad piece. No artist wakes up saying that it is a good day to be awful at what I do and not live up my passion. I have more to give, but that's a very important mindset to understand as of someone working to be an animator.
Flaw 3, "Where is my season 2?!?!" Resonates with me the most. I loved this series so much. It's definitely in my top 5.
Matthew Doan sorry but they say no season 2 for a few years but they have the resource
well, we can be excited for the upcoming movie!
The director said, there will be no second season in the next 2 years (he said in 2014) so there might be one in the next years after the movie
ever seen that hentai about making hentai?
Ziggerath As much as it surprises me, I know exactly what you're talking about.
Sadly, I know what you're referring to as well. It's called Eroge H Mo Game, or something like that.
h mo game mo?
Ziggerath it is actually about making an eroge. And the MC did not know how to make realistic 'scenes' and thus had to 'rely' on his female co-worker to 'learn more.'
Just went on Fakku after about half a year and OhMyFakingGawd they sell books now!?
"Bakuman" would have been another fitting recommendation
Please, please do "Ping Pong: The Animation." It was the best anime I've seen in recent years, and it deserves far more love than it gets. I promise you this anime will give you a better understanding and outlook on life. Ping Pong is just the surface to tell the story. Watch it. It's amazing.
Yes to this.
Luke Ditzel It's not one of the best anime in recent years, it's one of the best of *all time*.
Voidling1337 I think that's pushing it, but yeah it's a very unique anime.
"Based on people in the industry?" Dude, they had Anno in there almost to the stuble. Also, the most meta thing is the cat problem.
I look at the video and it seems amazing.
I look at the comments and it looks terrible.
Something fishy's going on here...
Lol, I came to see how nitty gritty he gets on the show, kinda hoping he'd be a little more analytical...
(I love Shirobako, but I mean, I make games as both an actual job and while still in school, so Shirobako was a great motivational tool for me) like, it depends in how you look at the show... If you're not into making your own worlds or never experienced making a project with all sorts of people, this show IS NOT for you, and I was hoping he'd mention it instead if just giving the show a certified frosty... There are 2 coins to this, especially since, in reality, making things, be they anime, games, or the next Facebook, they really aren't fun to watch being made, unless you can understand what the hell is going on or relate
I love your profile pic.
***** One day I may change it to something bland, and you will look very silly.
Oh no.
Bill Cipher I tought i wasn't gonna enjoy it much when I started, mostly because i find most slice of life boring. This show, tho... THIS SHOW. It was amazing. It surpassed my expectations in ways I could never have imagined.
I hope I'm not exaggerating >_>
thank you for the review! i loved shirobako! I can relate to the show, it deals with stuff, not only anime production but work related topics in general!
+GruntSquad92 Yeah! I thought the whole motivation theme was great, characters finding something to strive towards and then overcoming the difficulties it presents was just a joy to watch (especially when its done so well)
The anime looks really interesting, but honestly, all I could think about while watching this video is how incredibly well it is made. The intro is beautiful and short with interesting visuals and lands on that one tone that just wraps it all together all so nicely.
This video is like a dance. Where your words and the pictures are the dancers. All of this, along with all the interesting things you have to say makes you one of my favorite youtubers of all time. Looking foreward to your next video!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR INCLUDING THE NEWTYPE ADVERTISEMENT SNIPPET!!
No, seriously, thank you. You make me so happy with your classic anime references.
I remember when this anime was first airing, people thought it was boring and generic. 18 episodes later the perception of this anime complete changed. I personally didn't enjoy this anime, but it just goes to show you can't judge an anime based off the first few episodes. People are way to quick to judge. (Sword art online is another example of people judging to quick, but going in the opposite direction of Shirobako).
Jesse Smith I binge watch Shirobako after it ended. I love it since I'm very interested in film/animation production and all those behind the scene stuff.
Like you said, SAO's first ep was pretty well made but it just goes downhill from there. Didnt expect it to be a harem show.
I respect the idea of showing what happens behind the scenes but in anime form? This is something that should've been done as documentary because this anime is incredibly boring.
@@03e-210a This was way better as an anime than it would've been as a documentary bruh
I'll be honest, I watched the first six episodes of it sporadically when it came out, lost complete interest, then only just a week ago decided to give it another chance.
And godamnit, I'm glad I did. I binge watched the rest of the episodes and I finally understood the humor and liked the characters that were being portrayed. It resonated with me a lot because I always wanted to be an animator or work in a creative group for a living and to see how these characters (even fictionally) lived it out was such a treat. It made me realize just how important a producer really is and it convinced me that I would want to work as one if given the opportunity. There are not any shows that I can think of that gives me a sense of optimism for challenge like this one did.
9/10 for the slow start but a worthawhile viewing for anyone interested in working in a creative industry.
I was sold after seeing that dance.
I expected you to recommend Monthly Girl's Nozaki-Kun and Bakuman, as both are quite good perspectives on other aspects of the manga and anime industry. Didn't know either of the actual recs, so thanks for that, they sound realy cool!
You had a lot of fun doing this review. I would too, Shirobako was one of the most inspiring and greatest anime I have seen in a long while. A definite must-watch for all anime fans. Though I do suggest people learn a bit about anime production before going head in, otherwise it becomes very easy to become lost. :)
Please review Durarara!!
Hell yeah!
Omar Aly does DRR get better in the second half?
I dropped it, as it was airing, at ep 10 and watched ep 11 last year because everyone said it was great, and it was but; do they ever fix the pacing? Or make the teenagers interesting by themselves?
Zefo No yes it does get better, and watching all the episodes in a row is far more entertaining that watching it weekly, the pacing wasn't an issu it was just the style of the show and was great and yes the teenagers get real interesting
Toshan Bhujohory i guess watching it weekly was 1 of the problems.
A misery/ question was set up in 1 episode and we'd wait 1 week eagerly expecting to see it unravel and... they just flat out tell us what Celty is, who Bartender guy is, what's the deal with pink hair... very underwhelming.
For a show that pretended to be very hyper and energetic, it hit a lot of story telling duds in the first half.
But, again, ep 11 was great, and i'll take your word that Shiba and katana girl get interesting.
Zefo No It seems like they tell you a lot, but there is so much yet to figure out by the end. However as much as I want a review I suspect he is waiting for DRRx2 to finish just as he is waiting for the rebuild of eva to end.
That dance clip changed my life when I first saw it
I had as much fun watching this review as you did making it, Arkada! :)
Omg I love that you referenced Paranoia Agent because that is all I could think of every time I saw something on this anime :D
Uh, is it possible for you to review " Bakuman " ? or why isn't anyone talk about it, like at all ? It's great like Shirabako, but does not really have the depth on the manga world works.
Arkada you should check out Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Im not saying review just check out .
Id recommend the light novel i enjoyed it more you can read it free online
GamonKills not anymore since its getting picked up
GamonKills where?
Calum. www.baka-tsuki.org/project/?title=My_Youth_Romantic_Comedy_Is_Wrong_As_I_Expected#Volume_1
Dymm Slayer About how Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy author love Shirobako?
I would have never even considered watching this unless I hadn't seen your review and your recommendation as this being the best Anime for 2015. I gave it a chance and ended up watching it all in one marathon session. Thoroughly enjoyable! One of the few I'd watch again.
This was one of my favorite anime from 2014. I'm glad you liked it, Arkada! :D I'm very very glad it's certified frosty and I also ask... WHERE IS MY SEASON 2?!
Finally someone who give credit to Shirobako as it is such a good anime that has just been shoved under the rug and ignored by most but for those who has watch it join me in relishing what a great anime this was. The one that haven't watched it, what are you doing? Go watch it right now. NOW!!!!
I came here for Ema's dance....anyone? ok, just me then...
The joy of having a series you REALLY like being "certified frosty". Kudos, Ark! ^_^
Yesterday, I've finished Shirobako for the second time, and now I just HAVE to leave a comment to say: Thanks Ark for introducing me to such a wonderful piece of art. It definitely deserved it's 'certified frosty'-rating. If you hadn't reviewed Shirobako, I probably wouldn't have noticed it until much more later on. So, once again: Thank you. ^,^
Oh right, this is the anime about making anime!
Their OVAs were AWESOME. 3rd Aerial Girls Squad FTW (probably helped that the dude who did this did GuP too)
Consider doing Fate/Stay Night by ufotable
Walter White i think he will only do one when the dub comes out
Walter White pretty sure he's already reviewed that anime.
cameron wood no he hasnt
Jeff1999 are you sure? I just looked at it on his channel but it said 2006 in the title so was there a sequel or something?
cameron wood That Fate/Stay Night is not made by ufotable, what he means is Fate/Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works made by ufotable.
GAHHHHH U guys have no idea how much i loved this anime. Its really was entertaining. Also Garkada i see how much u loved that scene of her doing her workout as much as i did. I down loaded it and put on loop. I swear i could watch it for hours
I'll consider checking this show out. It seems like you have a lot of reviews on your channel, so you've got yourself a subscriber!
Thanks for reviewing this anime. I was planning to watch it.
Tristan is best Amine reviewer
Jacob Anastasi He really is! I love his reviews and I share his opinion about most anime he talks about. o(〃＾▽＾〃)o
i stopped the video and had to search for that dance scene watching 10hrs version now lol
That was the most appropriate use of the inception sound since inception :D
Very well done mister!!!
This show sounds like a lot of fun to watch :)
Only thing I have to moan about, I miss my core of the storm in the end >.>
After watching this review, I was so excited and intrigued to watch Shirobako. I started only 2 days ago and just finished it, that shows how much I liked it. As someone who wishes to, maybe, someday work in making anime, this anime was my cup of tea. It has really opened up my eyes to how much work goes into just a 12 episode series and now I truly appreciate all the work anime studios have to go through. I would absolutely recommend this anime.
On April first I dare you to do a Cory in the house review!
Please arkada watch gangsta of this anime season and review it. It looks to be really good and it is kind of like black lagoon and we know you like that one
Silver Soul He will make his first impression video after 3 episodes of gangsta. Wait 2 more weeks.
He can't make a review unless it's finished. Gangsta is only on its second episode I think.
OH MY GOD. YOU DID IT. I THOUGHT YOU NEVER WOULD BUT YOU DID IT. I'm so happy I could cry.
Thank you Ark for making me watch this show! Opened my eyes to the anime industries' hardships to bring us entertainment. A certified frosty indeed!
FIRST
I'm sorry I love your stuff so much Ark I had to
Sean Sidi Also Please review Your Lie in April it's like my favorite thing ever
Sean Sidi *high five* yeah its the best anime ever
distortioncharizard I've preached it to just about everyone I know I love it so much, especially as a musician myself
Sean Sidi Fuck man it's brilliant and so emotionaly engaging
distortioncharizard Right lets not say things we cant take back
The review could've been utter shit, you'd still get my Like for that inception joke XD
I see that Arkada has put some more effort into editing jokes throughout the video. I like it keep up the awesome work.
I'm happy to know that you enjoy this show as much as I did Arkada. Overall: awesome review keep up the good work :)
-Mastergold
It's July 4th
Everyone wants you to review Cory in the House, the most American anime ever.
You didn't review Cory in the House.
Why Arkada, why?
Review "Michiko & Hatchin"
DJ X Yes please do! That show is amazing!
Great as always, arcada. Keep up the awesome job!
I don't understand how this channel has only ~300k subscribers. This guy deliver professional content, everything is just so perfect from review design to commentary. Just give him more attention! He deserves more than this!
Arkada says it's great, but then the comments are almost all about how it's too boring. Confused and hesitating, but I think I'll try watching it anyway seeing as how nobody in the comments has given a good argument on why the show is bad...
Ria Natsume it doesn't have the same entertainment value or intensity of other shows. So is that an argument? :) Either way, I still really enjoyed it, and I hope you will too. Of course, not every anime is every person's cup of tea.
Jacob Huempfner yup. It's just refreshing to hear something other than "it's boring." I don't mind shows with less intensity, so maybe I will enjoy it :)
who cares let's dance!
It's good... It really depends on your opinion on making things, imo, though... Like, you need a sense of relate ability in any show you get into, but Shirobako kinda shot itself in the foot targeting creators, albeit there are a lot of people who create things, from movies, books, games, and mobile apps to name a few
Btw, I cried at a few parts of this show... Like, when I released my first game, a shitty art game made for a game jam, I didn't expect all sorts of people to play it but then to let's play it and to share it?
Like, those feelings were properly conveyed in Shirobako... Even if people don't find what you do to be exciting, your doing things that can lead to all sorts of amazing things...
Any chance you can review Blue Exorcist? Plz :)
***** Ohh so he better review BlazBlue:Alter Memory.
inmar hernandez If you liked that show, you would probably not like his review. I seriously doubt that he would rate it more than "stream it".
VraccasVII Maybe a lighting strikes in a clear sky?He might like it although Ark seemingly likes the genres that are more focused in Slice of Life,Drama,Romance,Comedy etc.
Dorian Bujupi Blue Exorcist contains a LOT of points he usually marks as negatives in his reviews. Just to name a few... most of the characters are cookie cutter, and their backgrounds are nothing new. The story is also extremely recycled, as well as the whole setting itself. The music is just "there" but doesn't do anything besides that.
BE is something you can only really enjoy if you don't watch as much anime and haven't seen this type of storyline dozens of times already.
VraccasVII His opinion and couldn't care less tbh,I watch his reviews when I run out of stuff to watch
Great review, I didn't expect such a high rating. This has been sitting on my Crunchyroll queue untouched for way too long. I've been pretty distracted by "BTVS" and "Angel" at the moment.
300K subs, congrats man!
1:01 to 1:10 couldn't stop laughing
Shirobako is to anime as of Bakuman to Manga
Omg you should have that song for the outro of every video you make from now on XD
Ironically, I started Shirobako last night, and after watching four episodes and then seeing Tristan's review I'm so excited to watch the rest.
I have a feeling it's going to be a favorite.
Forget this and just watch Bakuman.
No.
Almost fell asleep on episode three. To boring and "moe" for me. And seriously, Certified Frosty?
The JuanTrueKaiser Different stokes for different folks.
The JuanTrueKaiser The certifications are based on his enjoyment not much of a reviewing thing. Guess I'll try it after finishing Ergo Proxy.
The JuanTrueKaiser I agree, tried rewatching it twice and i can't even get passed episode two.
The JuanTrueKaiser Shirobako is everything but moe. Just keep watching.
You stopped watching because of the character designs, pretty shallow reason.
Thank you for leading me to this wonderful anime, Arcada!
AH yes , this is what you call an real anime , an anime about making other anime, animeception , love your reviews buddy , this is a great concept and looks great , will definitely check it out.
This show had a cute dance but unfortunately it was all in Japanese for some reason. 2/10
TLDR: interesting idea with boring execution; plain characters and just plain boring
TheBlunderman bob Realistic characters with fantastically grounded interactions.
TheBlunderman bob Yeah, I don't know what your talking about. It had great execution and realistic characters worth giving a shit about.
You read the video?
Lachlan Still I agree here, great series. Though personally I do believe the Certified Frosty rating to be too high.
reperfan4 That one was definitely influenced by personal preference even more so than they usually are. From the sound of things it's been a long time since an anime truly grabbed Ark so I'm sure that played a role.
Thanks, it is an anime that slipped to the back of my queue after watching a few episodes and one I probably should remember to go back to. Now I definitely will.
Man I'm glad I decided to watch it after this video. As someone who's starting his own professional life, the timing couldn't be better. And the quality in this!
I usually don't care much about some types of animes and characters (and I expected this to be the case), but I'd be lying if I said I didn't water my eyes at the end of episode 23. Very sweet series.
For me, this anime was one of the most boring pieces of shit I've ever seen. I tried to just power through it but i dropped it around episode 12.
WoWplayer527 Funny, the same thing happened to me when watching HunterXHunter, Fairy Tail, G-Reko, Eureka Seven, Deadman Wonderland, Nisekoi, Ore Monogatari!!, Accel World and Log Horizon.
joey zapata ok.....?
WoWplayer527
I'm just letting you know that you're not alone. Geez...
Have you tried Jojo?
Redskingman
"Jooojoooo, how did you make it back alive?"
This anime is only interesting to have a look at how anime is made. Other than that is pretty boring, and the characters are flat moe archetypes.
I'd skip this anime, or only watch the first cour since the second one is just the same shit.
Veggetto Saber Mind clarifying how the characters can be fit into archtypes?
koshoshlolz
MC is the same ol enthusiastic noob, bitchy ass friend in the industry. Dumb ass guy that is irredeemably stupid and immature.
Eh some other cast choices that are too boring for me to remember. I dropped this anime half way through the second cour.
Veggetto Saber So how do you know that the second half is the same. Because guess what? It fucking isn't
Veggetto Saber nah all of its interesting :)
Veggetto Saber We need people like you. Because i'm tired of the same types of characters with the same anime cliches. The anime without cliche are the ones that rise and its so easy to see that. I dont like how the "power of friendship" always finds its way into some anime etc
I started watching Shirobako when I became a PA for the Post Production of a TV series. I related very closely to some of the things that go on in this anime and found it to be a big stress reliever and something lighthearted to wake up to.
I have to thank you, for I have used your reviews, as what's next to watch material. I do tend to have different opinions than you, but we kinda have similar taste on anime (not the same). I have to say, it's not allways what you say, but how you say that matters when choosing anime to watch. Enthusiasm while saying something etc. And cause I'm from living in Finland, I indeed will stay frosty...
Have you seen or shared you're thoughts on Bakuman. I would enjoy a video on it. Great review I really liked this anime page too.
First of all, I'm a huge fan of yours. Keep up the good work! Secondly, you should check out Mawaru Penguindrum. It's a 24 episode series with a good english dub available and doesn't have a "read the manga" ending. It has all the makings of a great anime. I feel like it's right up your ally. Totally worth it to watch a few episodes!
Hey Arkada, have you ever considered reviewing Boogiepop Phantom or Mononoke? The first one has a dark, meditative tone similar to Serial Experiments Lain that I think you'd like. The second one is basically a short horror series that is superbly animated. I think you'd like both.
great video. btw the link to the playlist of anime reviews in the description doesnt work
Hmm after I saw that dance scene in some random vids I checked this anime out, plots seems interesting. I think gonna watch it.. I have been always fascinated by japanese animation/manga industries in general because of how much creativity,hardwork they are giving to us. Thank you Japan :D
Season 2 is part of this collection and was shown as part of Arkada's review. The first season covers the production of "Exodus!" (episodes 1-12), and the second season deals with the production of "The Third Aerial Girls Squad" (episodes 13-24). Both seasons may have been produced together and/or released without a break between. But the changes in cast and the fact that most anime are produced at 12 to 13 episodes per season leads me to believe that this is a collection of two seasons with no third. I was able to purchase this a couple months ago on -copyright infringement- for a good price; Japanese language tracks with English subs only.
One of my favorite anime! Finally, he reviews an anime AFTER I watch it without a mention or recommendation on his behalf.
When you mentioned the Ghibli documentary, that reminded me of a question. Where are our Miyazaki reviews?
OMG that intro clip, first time I ever saw that was when I got "Ninja Scrolls" on VHS xD
One of the series that just has been released this week is Monster Musume: Life with Monster Girls.
Near the end of the year, that might be one worth reviewing.
Well I just watched the whole show on crunchyroll this weekend and came to re-watch your review. I really liked it actually, especially for someone who hates slice of life so much. I want a SEASON 2!!!
I'd also recommend watching Animation Runner Kuromi - a two part OVA from the director of Fruit's Basket and Jubei-Chan that pre-dates Shirobako, though one that IIRC is unfortunately out of print (as the English release was a Central Park Media joint) so you may have to pick up a DVD used or (if you're in the US and you have a Netflix Disk subscription), you can rent the show from Netflix on DVD.
My biggest complaint behind the current lack of a second season, is that there wasn't enough of Ai Kunogi. I love her and need more of her in my life.
i've work on batman animated series in 93 as a action designer. it was never a joke about that job!
but, when the characters come alive on the screen... it will make anyone who on the staff, cry in joy.
Oh man, I remember that "what is anime" commercial all too well. First saw it on the ADV release of Azumanga Daioh.
thanks again for the great review. imho you are the best anime reviewer out there
What do you think about Gundam 00?
Just a short answer'd satisfy me, maybe not a whole video review.
Personally it's my favourite Gundam series, I'd like to know your opinion because I've a similar opinion on Gundam Wing.
Hi! I would love to hear your thoughts on the anime Punchline that just ended. (the beginning is iffy but the second half is phenomenal)
i'm watching a lot of animes now and reading some mangas, but i'd like to watch it, how many episodes does it have?
I've been going thru a dry spell lately with anime recently. Anyone got any reccomdations? Im mainly attracted to action oriented anime and anything non shonen. Thanks in advance
Hey arcada, could you give a look at Magi: the labyrinch of magic? You might've already heard of it, but it's a shounen manga with a really interesting middle-eastern setting.
Wow! Just heard about this earlier today, and now this review?? I can't wait to watch it now :)
can someone please help me?
I'm trying to watch an anime on funimation, but it requires a subscription.
Now.....the website says 1 month $4.95, does that means you will be charged 4.95 every month, or you are paying 4.95 just for that single month and then your subscription will be canceled?
Thanks in advance
Wow, it's been a while since I've hear "Certified Frosty". Defiantly going to watch this.
loved this anime. would like season 2, but im still wondering...HOW ARE OPS/EDS DECIDED??
Yuukecchi Although not exactly ops/eds, in one episode, Shirobako did show us how the original soundtrack is made. During a meeting between the animation studio and music compnay, director gives some instructions to composer what sort of music he want.
Someone probably already mentioned it, but the mangaka duo behind Death Note also did a manga called Bakuman which is about, well, making manga. It's a fun shounen manga with heaps of interesting insights into the manga industry, and I would definitely recommend it, especially to people who draw manga or who liked this series!
An Anime I watched a few months before this one that really helped me grasp some of the insider nuances to this series that they don't really explain was "Animation Runner Kuromi". It's a little older (from teh early 2000's), is a full on comedy, and is just a 2-part OVA, but it does explain some of the actual processes and steps pretty well. I recommend it if you liked Shirobako and want to see some more in that vein. (Likewise, Bakuman for manga creation).
OMG! The Inception horn killed me! XD
Just finished Shirobako and reallllly enjoyed it. The biggest hurdle I found was getting used to the immensely large cast. Ingeniously though, they include the name, plus their job title next to character when the introduce the character plus frequently when the reoccur. Sadly though, because of the large cast, I wanted more time with some of the 'main' 5 girls, where 2 of them got less screen time than supporting characters.
Shirobako is one of my favorite anime i watched. It's a wonderful telling of how anime is made through with rose tinted glasses and showcases it's not an easy job, it's complete madness. The characters are easily the best part of this show, you can feel them as people in real life people (make sense as they are based on actual people) who went through this extremely tough job on a day by day basis. It's easily a must watch and i support it highly!!!!
Good video. I very curious about your opinion about this anime. VEry good. I loved this anime,because make me possibel learn much about industry anime. Congratulations for 500k.
does anyone know where i can get the full Shirobako Angel dance song.
