By Epic Dope Staff | May 19, 2021

Every Otaku sure knows about the hellish working situations of the animators.

In a recent tweet of MAPPA’s ex-animator, it was revealed staff members have unhealthy working hours.

Mushiyo is currently a freelance animator and he stated his reasons for leaving through a Twitter thread.

Mushiyo has explained that MAPPA was unprepared when four major projects were accepted.

You bet the animators had quite the tough schedule.

He also revealed that the junior or lower-ranking animators were stuck in a loop of correcting mistakes.

80% of the staff who faced a similar problem have left due to the back-breaking schedule.

Japan’s anime culture looks like a rosy scenario to outsiders but its reality is heart-breaking.

Creators who are working so that fans can connect with their creations deserve sincere respect.
