Comment on Japanese Animators Get Slave Wages: $11,000 A Year by Anonymous:

Economics 101: if the wages are low, it’s because there are too many animators. The market is trying to tell you to look elsewhere. If that’s all you can do, you’re stuck. If you have any other skills, move on. As far as buying new cars for CEOs, remember that with super taxes on the rich, the pay scales adjust UPWARDs to make up for it. Be it a CEO or a ball player, if you want a million take home, you may have to be paid two or three million in “salary”. Politicians will make hay, but generally speaking every move by governments to “punish” rich just jacks up their pay scales.
The market says the pay is only worth 11k a year right now (and maybe forever). You might wish to look elsewhere, or go back to school to learn a better paying trade. The market is screaming this to people, but few listen…

  If there is anything positive to say, is that this weeds out all the fakes , wannabes , and mediocres and the people that have a true heart for it go thru despite the storm . I remember when anime fans in America had to higher translators and watch raw anime and stop every 5 min to ask what was said . I give a toast to the animators . Anime means alot good times or bad .

  no matter how much you love to do something, its never worth it to waste your prime years and starve your self. I dont mind getting minimum living wages and live in a 200sqft room but if I cant even afford that, then I rather a high paying job and then do indy animation on projects that I want to work on with much higher quality which is why more indy stuff is getting the rise also, one should never support being under paid for something they put all the sweat in when another is just taking all …

  Could someone explain to me how Sayaka was a yandere? Kyouko was the one that suggested to snap his legs and she never ended up doing it, nor did she end up with the person she loved. The breakdown of her mental state from her clouded soul gem is what brought on the murderous intents and she was fighting due despair and fallen judgement, rather than to claim her crush as her own/or kill him out of love Looks like omeone needs to review their facts

  I’ve said it before, I’ll say it here. Japan’s economy/ecosystem is being sucked out by it’s Reserve Bank, just like America and whomever else has one. If you don’t know how it works, Japan’s right to produce it’s own currency was ‘bullied’ out of it’s governments control and handed to the Rothschilds and World Banks. Now they charge loan fees and interest that Japan has to pay to receive any of it’s ‘yen’. Ie, every year billions of dollars are sucked out and given to the Rothschilds and other …

  Mikan is top tier, I don’t read the manga but I always check the posts here and there’s always a distinct lack of Mikan. I also like Nana, they should make a spin-off, Mikan and Nana go on sexy adventures.
