I commute by bike!
let's talk about the mistreatment of in-betweeners that stems from an industry view of it being a profession that exists purely to catapult animators to higher positions and that any animator that sticks with it is dead weight that needs to be shaken off

the metaphor part

business practices in the industry are of course hosed between animator wages and overwork and all that fun stuff but I don't think that's a new thing

LWA definitely was intended to be a metaphor for a the industry (from the perspective of a new animator), Yoshinari has said as much

Soga no Tojiko, part of Miko's Taoist crew. TD stage 5 midboss. She's a ghost because when it came time for her and Futo to transfer their souls into objects for storage, Futo gave her a lovely jar as a soul receptacle on purpose (Because she was mad that Tojiko's clan btfo of Futo's clan). It broke and so now she's a ghost, though she doesn't really mind and hangs out with Futo anyway.

Are there any Western (non-Canadian) studios that do all their animation in-house? Or do wage costs make that impossible to do?

Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.
Tojiko was BETRAYED and now she's DEAD and she's kept bound to this world as a ghost by her feelings of VENGEANCE and RAGE. But she's pretty chill all-around.

Also she shoots lightning which incredibly important for people making pokemon clones.

Crunchy announced a new Houshin Engi/Soul Hunter anime. Is this an exciting thing? I've heard the name but I don't know where.

Regarding the studio thing, I think most of Samurai Jack was done in-house? What was that, CN Studios and maybe Williams Street?

I believe it was a manga that Viz published back in the days of the monthly Jump magazine.

It was a Weekly Shounen Jump manga and it's one of those manga that had an OK run, but wasn't that big beyond the usual "We're getting an anime to try and boost sales!" kinda deal.
