iirc he only even got funding for wake up girls because he begged off on it being related to recovery from the tsunami somehow

For what it's worth, this article seems to indirectly confirm it.

Yamakan announced his Hakubo (Twilight) anime project this past February. He is credited with the original work, script, direction and sound direction. Yamakan is planning the anime as the last of his self-described "Tōhoku trilogy" set in Japan's Tōhoku region in the northeast.

going by wake up girls, not very much funding

One of the girl's backstories and hometown was one of the areas hit by the tsunami. They end up going there to reconcile and find themselves. I'm not fully sure how well it was executed other than it was one of the more slower, laid-back episodes to retreat from the drama, high-stakes episodes, since my memory's a bit fuzzy about it now. It was at least subtle about it, since it wasn't obvious when we watched it last year since it never states it out loud that area they go to was hit by the tsunami, so the episode mostly focuses on the effects and reconstruction, and parallels its recovery with the group's current state and relationships. I wanna say it was a nice grounded episode at the very least.

That connection to the tsunami is also how we got 9/11 created idols in the last episode, which is still hilarious even if it's technically thematically connected

a while back, a japanese ex-game dev dude did a chapter of a manga about sakaguchi and his talk with him about the creation of final fantasy. more recently, he did a chapter about the creator of yakuza that ends with this

I'm getting the mental image that you're hungry, and if that's the case, eat/drink your tasty nourishment/beverage of choice, Mister F. :cheers:

But, to give a recommendation wrt the Locodol show, I'm going to cite a much more succinct/eloquent post:

Where's the website for the scanlation group? Batoto won't load the latest chapter (and it's about to die anyhow, so.)

Anyway I read the last chapter of Girls' Last Tour and I am now HELLA SAD.
