>>149670677>refusing to look at the fact that Japan had a multibillion dollar animation industry with a global consumer baseAnime doesn't really make that much money and the animators are literally paid Indian wages by Japanese standards.
Sure if you're someone who wants to make animation you can point to it as an example of animation being possible in the modern day.
But if you're a soulless MBA husk it's not really blindness or ignorance, it's the correct judgement.
When your goal is to always make more money, not to give people entertainment doing something you like and making enough to keep doing it as long as you want, anime really isn't a viable candidate.
