Prretty sure masaaki yuasa's proteges are involved and that guy has always reeked of disgusting incel fash to me
Huh. I have only watched Ping-Pong and the Tatami Galaxy but I never got that vibe. Can you elaborate? (Not trying to argue with you, just curious)
Mainly to me just the way that he always centers the story around this incel lite main character who walks away w his manic pixie dream girl by the end of the story without the relationship feeling earned at all and in fact usually the main character is quite misogynistic in his own way
It's been a while since I watched Tatami Galaxy but I always got the impression that the MC did go through a lot of growth. But I'll have to rewatch it. If you haven't seen Ping Pong I'd highly recommend it. It's such a wholesome character study.
+1 on Ping Pong being one of my favourites. I've been meaning to watch Tadami Galaxy
It's a trip but the dialogue is incredibly fast. I couldn't watch it when I was tired cause I couldn't keep up with the subtitles lol
This take is bewildering to me, given Yuasa's history and that of the studio he founded. Science Saru exists in part because he thought it was important that more voices exist within Japanese animation- it's one of the few studios with a multi-cultural staff, and when he retired as president he passed the role to Eunyoung Choi, the only Korean woman with any prominence at all in the industry.
He made a show that had actual Japanese nationalists mad at him, because it was about a mixed couple and their family trying to survive a natural disaster and it painted racists in a bad light.
The director of Dandandan, Fuga Yamashiro, previously worked on Keep your Hands of Eizouken! and Tatami Time Machine Blues as an assistant director, Dandandan is his directorial debut.
