StandardVC10 posted:The director just got more and more cringeworthy. Part of it is because there's such a large cast and since they're all in plainclothes and normal, some of the more distinctive features aren't there to help remember characters.

StandardVC10 posted:That's more than I expected, honestly. I feel like this series could be 1 cour if it focused on the MC and the company, but I guess since there are actually five mains, they'll get their time and we'll get to see time work together eventually.

If I recall correctly, didn't one of the producers or creators say that Tarou was basically one of them when they were first starting out?

OnimaruXLR posted:So there's a bunch more episodes of this left? Is the final third of the series going to be Aoi trying to cope with being the only competent production manager left at MusAni? I'd guess that there might be a small time skip (a few years down the road) with them getting to helm a company of their own or all of them actually together to work on their dream project. At the very least, it'll probably end that way with them able to start on it.

Neeksy posted:I thought the blurred-out part was hilarious, precisely because everything is so recognizable. I figured that kind of meaningless censorship was a part of the joke. It actually seems pretty standard iirc. Even if everything's mosaic, it's still relatively recognizable. I've seen a few where the characters get a censor bar over the eyes and that's it. Additionally, when speaking about copyrighted characters or real people, there'll be a bleep of one of the syllables, but it's generally recognizable from the rest. Curious: How does B Productions -> Toei Sunup -> Sunrise makes sense Also, who's The Born?

nielsm posted:Shouto Kashii, he's done a ton of minor characters in all sorts of anime, but nothing major it seems. I would've thought they'd pull the guy who voiced Director-kun in Insufficient Direction, but I guess they wanted a more serious depiction. I did find out that Megumi Hayashibara voiced Rompers and I wouldn't be surprised if a version of her showed up at some point since she's at that level of illustriousness.

nielsm posted:It's true that we haven't seen Tarou gently caress up massively as he did in the early episodes, but on the other hand we haven't seen him be competent either. Since we haven't seen him be competent I'm assuming he's still postponing work until last minute and poo poo a conflict resolution. He's at the level of competency as the Director. The same position that he wants to aim for.

Twiddy posted:That wasn't a hentai, it was a harem show. Obviously one of the more trashy harem shows considering the lines, but I'm pretty sure it was specifically for "I Think My Harem's Falling Apart (But I'm Not Sure)." I actually want to read the plot of this story because I have a feeling that it's some sort of reverse of the typical proceedings of a harem anime where they all start infatuated with the MC and then start leaving for various reasons.

DiabloCthulhu posted:Huh. Apparently, originally Shirobako was planned as a 4-cour show, with Miyamori going from the assistant to the desk, from there to the line producer and, then, finally, to the producer. Source. I think that link needs  tags due to the ads. Opened it on my phone and got a naked anime woman on my screen.

Yes_Cantaloupe posted:/\/\/\/\/\ Hell, I'd have surprise dropped in on the author himself months ago. He's always energetic and upbeat and generally means well and actually tries to do his job, but is still a complete doof and sort incompetent. Compared to most of the cast, the doof part was what made him relatively unlikable. However, now there are characters who actually don't care or otherwise want to avoid responsibility relative to the rest of the cast.

The amazing part is that one day, Tarou will probably become a director and maybe not actually terrible at it. Miyamori would become studio head though and she'll treat everyone to donuts like what's his name does with all sorts of food.

So Hiraoka's the example of high energy in that leads to a spectacular crash and burn later. Also, I think Zuka didn't want Aoi making introductions for her because she wanted to get her roles by her own ability and not by introduction.

Well the only one who can really see them is autist-chan maybe. If they do an S2 (big IF), I'd love to know about Okitsu-san (and how she got her nickname) and some of the other older souls during their time in production. I'm totally not interested in watching them do production on "Two Piece" since the reality of how that show is made is infinitely more depressing than it should be. I'd rather them jump a few years with them actually trying to get their own company going. Also, this is a world where the Sega Dreamcast survived and continued its legacy. Oh what a world it might have been.

DamnGlitch posted:He mentions it really fast, he was worried about the mangaka meeting his deadlines, so he wasn't bringing up any of the anime stuff to him to distract him. Or something like that. Editor was probably under the assumption that the author needed no distractions to keep working and that included working with the anime staff. Any interactions with the anime staff had him essentially checking out since he had the complete intention of only listening to the bare minimum of what he had to say or do unless it was straight from the author.
