As they have been producing a lot of animes recently. They made around 6 animes last year and they have around 5 animes coming this year including some big titles. for example ufotable made only 2 anime
last year and those were also movies.(ufotable is just an example, i am not comparing both of these studios)

What are your thoughts on it?

(I don't know much about animation industry so correct me if i am wrong)

pretty sure a lot of mappa animators are freelance or work at home but working as an animator for studios in japan usually isn't very healthy in general.

I think they have. they are doing lots of works and I think they aren't that bad shape as many suspected.

Fall 2022 is the most Unforgettable anime season of all time

MAPPA has around 200 employees which seems to be an appropriate amount of people for a large studio.

Therefore I see no reason why MAPPA should be considered a toxic place to work because it should be able to divide the studio's work evenly amongst its employees so that nobody feels overwhelmed.

but MAPPA is making a LOOOOOOOOOT of money from stuff like Jujutsu Kaisen and the budget to make it was pretty big to the employees are getting paid accordingly, they are probably working a lot but that's what they chose to do, to get paid that much.

I guess so , I have seen it in Wikipedia , yaa you can say production IG help wit then you have to consider IG port as a whole which includes wit , products IG and other two studio (forgot name) ,

Edit : Then imagine how many anime they are producing per year , 10-12 anime at least

They may have over 200 employees but they still do a lot of outsourcing or rely on freelance work and their conditions don't seem any better than other studios, certainly not enough to justify such a fast growth.

The thing is, had MAPPA not been the studio that is in charge of the hottest stuff in current anime, people wouldn't be making all sorts of efforts to defend a studio that looks so fishy from the beginning.

I just hope that the animators deserve a break cause they definitely do after working on a lot of anime, especially with Attack on Titan Season 4 Part 2 because that's even more hell to animate than it was with Season 4 part 1. But with the amount of anime they're working on right now, I doubt that MAPPA has a healthy environment

lol at 200 GOAT MAPPA Employees meme again

Kyoto Animation (before the arson) and Ufotable have 200 employees too but they only do 2-3 anime each year at most

by that logic of number of employees then Toei Animation that has 800 employees should be having awesome animation on their works right now

as for the topic, Hayashi in an interview described MAPPA work environment as Chaos like they they are so unorganized and does a lot of cutting corners just to deliver an anime episode right on time

About WIT & Mappa,
Shuhei Hikita: WIT is more like a traditional production studio, i don't mean this in a bad way, i am referring to making plans and production details, they work things out step by step and put efforts according to the procedure, while in MAPPA, it is more flexible and adaptive depending on the situation. Although it could be reckless/ chaotic some time, we’ll always find an efficient way to achieve the desired results
Hayashi: I will describe it as ‘chaos’, almost all our production in different works had a rather thrilling experience
