Hunter Sullivan
Logan Green

Andrew Cooper
I like to think of this Yamada as that Yamada.
Ethan Collins
Takemoto didn't make it...
Cooper Hall
There's a trustworthy list of who is alive?
Anthony Hill
>Based
Carter Cruz
What does it matter if she's alive, she won't be able to make another show ever again.
Christian Flores
She already peaked 10 years ago
Jonathan Gray
I would legitimately cry if she had died.
Dylan Rogers
I don't think anyone of them is well after this
Brody Ross
So is someone going to make a manga/anime about this?
Some sort of slice of life working at a studio then last chapter ends with the arson attack
Ian Turner
Yes that would really be appropriate you fucking retard
Parker Bailey
Whats next for her then?
Brayden Martinez
>he has not seen liz to aoi tori
Sebastian Jenkins
I think odds are pretty good for someone to make a one-shot. Short comics are obviously inevitable, too
Oliver Young
Why is her hair so oily?
Mason White
You gotta strike while the building's hot
Leo Perry
PAW is already working on it.
Nathaniel Collins
Make Hibike! Euphonium gay again.
Dominic Jenkins
Thank goodness.
Jaxon Brown
did I fucking stutter?
Camden Fisher
Yamada is cute.
Connor Martin
She aint well thats for sure
Alexander Hernandez
Yes. Yes she is
Brayden Rodriguez
Good, Koe no Katachi have been the best thing Kyoani have produced in the last 5 years, everything was pretty crap.
Juan Bailey
Fuck you, Carlos.
Aiden Morales
Fuck no.
Angel King
But what about the other directors?
Jace Ortiz

Brandon Thompson
That shit is appalling
Gavin Johnson
>standing triumphant over the remains of kyoani
Wow that's fucking rude. What was PA WORKS thinking?
Oliver Miller
No Yamakan
Noah Hall
We don't need another Terror in Resonance.
Easton Jenkins
>tfw Yamada will be remembered as the director of the most pretentious movie in modern history
Ayden Taylor
Man, if that movie is about their studio burning down, it's gonna be awkward.
Christian Cooper
>Son of a bitch.
Thomas Hughes
b-but missing=dead! Yea Forums lied to me
Hunter Nguyen
>Haruhi director died
>Yamada (K-ON) and iSHITdate (VEG) are alive
Now THIS is unfair.
Austin Bailey
Thank Christ. The ultimate waifu made it out, and not even crispy.
James Jenkins
Yamakan probably fuming
Samuel Cox
Why are there so many fucking riajuu on this board caring about this studio that ruined the medium?
Nathan Young
Koe no Katachi is garbage. The same old generic story about a bland male self-insert, but disguised as the story of a mute girl.
Anthony Torres
The bad guys always win
Christian Nelson
kys faggot
Anthony Gomez
This is all that matters
William Jenkins

Luis Jones
Why can't she just join another studio? Or maybe they would create a new one?
Bentley White
Her safety confirmed like 8hours ago, thank you OP.
Nathan Morris
She finally needs to create that oneeloli anime, maybe this death/life experience will convince her to do that next.
Jaxon Gutierrez
You are one hell of an honest guy.
Juan Lopez
You're one hell of a handsome user
Ayden Anderson
She qt. I want to marry her.
Logan Miller
Yamada doesn't believe in lesbianism. She's very outspoken about her belief that lesbianism doesn't exist and at best it's just a phase
Brandon Garcia
>bland male self-insert
>main guy is an emotional wreck with extreme social anxiety and suicidal depression
You doing okay, bud?
John Moore
Where are you fags getting the idea that kyoani is shuttered? They'll rebuild the building, it's most likely insured and Studio 1 isn't their only studio, anyway. They'll have permanently lost some of their workforce but they'll rebound.
Gabriel Taylor
>main guy is an emotional wreck with extreme social anxiety and suicidal depression
Seems like the bread and butter self-insert Shinji clone MC.
Owen Campbell
Nothing wrong about making a show about a loli dominating older woman as her yuri phase go.
Gabriel Hernandez
There's nothing wrong with being any of that though.
r-right?
Cooper Cook
That's not normal user
Koe no Katachi tells a very specific story, you either relate cause you used to be a bully, or don't at all
Noah Hall
Sarcastic/emo harem lead was the rave during the mids-2000 but they were still self-inserts. The thing is Shinji Ikari's environment is deceiving. At the surface, it looks like a typical otaku wish-fulfillment so faggots like Kensuke or that guy from Escapist Magazine can't understand why he complains so much but then you get more of what's under the surface and the dream become a nightmare. The sarcastic/emo harem lead still lives on an ideal situation with the cute girl fawning over him because he's "yasashi" (this is often translated as nice but it actually mean "to be inherently good", despite the actual behaviour, it's more about the nature).
Logan Reyes
>mc has no hobbies or dedication
>suffers from bad decision-making
The bread and butter self-insert Shinji clone MC.
Robert Williams
>no hobbies or dedication
>suffer from bad decision-making
I'm a self-insert Shinji clone? Where are my cute girls?
Alexander Ramirez
Cute girls don't exist in the 3-dimension world.
Adrian Lopez
I agree. it's just "feel sorry for cripple people" the anime, with a nice glossy coat of KyoAni paint
still this is a national tragedy. my condolences to their families.
Asher Gray
>Cute girls don't exist in the 3-dimension world
Except for (You)
Parker Kelly
Wow, I had no idea she was this cute. Props.
Robert Sullivan
y-you too!
Aaron Davis
That's just a good picture, she's a fuggo irl.
Brody Ross
still cute desu
Ryder Bell
his hobby is being suicidal
Alexander Diaz
all humans are fuggo irl besides moot
Hudson Myers
because they didnt ruin the medium you fag. I bet the only thing that matters to you is it not being moe. You cant even appreciate actually well written characters or great animation
Ryan Moore
some studios close down due to bad management for a single season. Kyoani had a fire that killed half their skilled creators. People who take years to decades to be able to do their jobs at that level. And even if they do train the new talent the personality and soul of the work wont be the same
Austin Mitchell
Fuck you user, you made me laugh. Thank you.
I'm glad she's alive, but I don't really want to celebrate it too much since half of the people there still died. And I'm sure there were plenty of talented people and some future directors among them.
I guess I should be happy that half of them have survived.
Xavier Peterson
UwU thanks user
Joshua Lopez
Shinji likes music and plays the cello. Also he enjoys cooking and being a pushover is treated as a character flaw rather than him being nice
Jayden Gonzalez
what studio do I use to live my dead animation dreams through now?
Oliver Lopez
So what were KyoAni confirmed to be working on / scheduled to work on?
Juan Hall
i still wanna say he has something to do with this somehow.
Charles Allen
That's why it's a clone instead of the real thing. Pic related is the usual Asuka clone, the character totally reduced to it's skeleton without being fleshed out.
Connor Howard
OK, that makes sense
Jonathan Hernandez
>some studios close down due to bad management for a single season
Yeah, typically when they were already on the brink of financial insolvency. Kyoani is one of the most profitable and strong names in the anime industry. They're no doubt insured for both the damage the fire caused but also any financial impacts from production delays.
No to mention they also have a gofundme with already near a million dollars donated so far.
>Kyoani had a fire that killed half their skilled creators
We don't know the full stats yet, but Takemoto is the only missing lead at that specific studio right now. They had around 150 employees total before the attack. Worst case scenario is they don't hire anyone new and just make do with a smaller anime output. Some anime studios make do with a fraction of the staff.
Oliver Kelly
Trauma, she might retire tomorrow and you know it.
David Watson
>Some anime studios make do with a fraction of the staff.
This. If they still have enough skilled staff they can do it. K-ON episodes usually had only 10 animators, and they still have people at Animation Do! and their school.
Blake Cook
Shoe won the Kumikobowl, get over it Yurifags
Ayden Brown
He told Makoto Shinkai to shut up after he wished KyoAni well.
Luis Nguyen
Sure they still have the technical skill to make anime, but the level that they had before this? Not a chance for a long time.
Sebastian Morales
She deserved to die for making such a shitty movie desu way to get btfo by shinkai so damn hard. Just more melodramatic kyoani trash. They're only good at making cute fanservice.
Matthew Anderson
Back in 2010 they had 120 staff, roughly the amount they have today after accounting for the fatalities. They produced K-On, Clannad, Haruhi, FMP, and Lucky Star with fewer than that many employees, all fantastic looking shows.
>the level that they had before this? Not a chance for a long time.
Did anyone say that? I was specifically responding to people who thought kyoani was gone for.
Jordan Bailey
Traumatized for life.
Carter Moore
HERE COMES THE TORONTO ROCKET
Lucas Nelson
She will never be the same.
William Allen
he's an asshole but is he edgy enough to manipulate a train otaku to do his dirty work?
Connor King
Shinkai is an attention whore.
Gabriel Harris
and probably traumatized for life now
Alexander Walker
Nah, it would be something more like tokyo magnitude 8.0.
That show dealed with the earthquake matyer in a very tasteful way.
Levi Allen

Bullies can't relate because they never become bullied. That's how bullying works, they will always trample someone under them in the 2-step food chain.
Jose Edwards
>they never become bullied.
It must suck living under a rock
Dylan Scott
Back on you. Bullies exist because humans always try to find someone lower than them, and pushing someone down is the clearest way of showing that you don't belong to the bottom. This also enchants their self-confidence which in itself is evidently good for healthy social life, and in simple terms, getting in to the group that is the humans who are immune to bullying.
Lincoln Sanchez
Only melodrama I've liked. May she rest in peace.
Joseph Ramirez
Nothing to do with societies anti-bullying trend
Now is the era of people getting bullied solely for bullying
Thomas Hall
Nice bubble you got there.
Andrew Murphy
Weird, you clearly have no idea what's going on in main society, and you're calling others bubbled
So this is the power of schizo posters
Jason Gutierrez
Kek, you sound as if it was Kubrick, faggot. Please, user, consider killing yourself.
Blake Lee
What's with this forced "the schizo did it" meme actually taking traction?
Nowhere does it say the guy was a schizo.
Seems like someone is trying to demonize schizos and otakus
Luis Long
no way you burn down an office building if you're not a schizo
Luis Nguyen
Nah, hysterics and narcissists would be able to do this since its bright, loud and gets all the attention. Also mania conditions and neurosis could be the trigger.
Brandon James
Shirobako S2
Parker Clark
KYS you s/u/bh/u/man
Zachary Cooper
What's her condition?
Is she injured?
Is she okay?
Samuel Edwards
even with his beef with kyoani i doubt he feels good about them dying, i interpret that tweet are him just being really angry and blown away by the situation and lashing out at someone who seems to only want attention (not that i agree with his view).
honestly this shit is so fucking sad
Owen Roberts
source?
Nathan Murphy
If he has that many different issues he might as well be psychotic
Jose Phillips
Well, she's cute so that's good, I guess.
Gavin Harris
Maybe something like Penguindrum where the attack is weaved into the story but not in a direct way.
