Why did people never listen to him?
He was right again
William Collins
Bentley Fisher
I seriously doubt it was "otaku" who screeched about someone shitting on Corea and China. Yamakan is shooting at the wrong target, but he's correct here in general.
Lincoln Young
When Yamakan makes a good anime, I will trust him. Save us Yamakan.
Owen Perez
At his core he is right and you just need to look at this very board to see it with the violent reactions to actual industry discussion but I don't see how they can be blamed on international politics stuff
Noah Ortiz
>blaming your non-existent customers
maybe make a good anime at least.
>thinks gaijins have any influence on japan's anime industry
lol, lmao even
Xavier Murphy
Our having influence or not isn't the point, i'm using Any Forums as a reflecting of japan here
Cameron Peterson
He must be talking about the author when he refers to otaku. It got shit canned because China's bankrolling productions and obviously they're not going to produce something that pissed them off
Oliver Evans
Everything is otaku’s fault. Economy is shit, Otaku. Mental illness on the rise, otaku. Abe is dead, Otaku.
Carter Torres
Please remind me of what he contributed to anime that's noteworthy again?
Jacob Ward
>Abe is dead
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Leo Cox
He created the Haruhi ending dance IIRC.
David Rogers
Why yes, I get my Japanese news from Any Forums too, how did you know?
Isaiah Lopez
>A jaded, bitter old man is blaming others for his misfortunes.
>At his core he is right
Please read what you said.
Christian Gonzalez
ah this one, it was a bit of a shame but oh well
Xavier Green
>He created the Haruhi ending dance IIRC.
His self-loathing is driving him insane, I guess.
Josiah Ramirez
Nothing of value was lost then,
Kevin Wilson
He happens to have a point on this, but he's otherwise usually wrong. He has a tremendously overinflated opinion of his abilities, and is mostly bitter about not being as liked and successful as he thinks he should be.
Lucas Ortiz
>talk shit about China and Korea openly
>doesn't consider pic related, to be relevant.
>get cancelled
>"Otaku have too much power over the industry"
Jackson Foster
Pretty sure I've watched this anime 20 times already, just with slightly different characters each time
Brandon Bailey
he's right
Dylan Bell
He also directed the God Knows episode from Haruhi and the Lucky Star OP. That's the sad part about Yamakan. He does actually have talent and can make good work when he's kept in check and working under another director who knows how to utilize his skill. But after getting fired from Kyoani and setting off on his own, his ego and big mouth plus all his attention-seeking stunts made him the laughingstock of the industry.
