'Lazarus' Unveils Main Staff, Cast, 2025 Premiere

good news all 13 episodes are completed before the release date https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/1g6s00o/lazarus_first_look_adult_swim/lsl5fjf/

that is a rare healthy production schedule for mappa

@deg Not that rare to be honest. I think Ranma1/2 also have good production schedule.

The synopsis gives me a medical thriller vibe, which has my curiosity.

I hope it works out well.

looks like there are lots of parkour sakuga on this one

hopefully this original anime does not share the same quality as ninja kamui

but the animation producer seems good enough

"Good enough", lmao. He is the best AniP at MAPPA and one of the best in the entire industry, maybe the second right after Fukushi

@_Rearden_ Not even top 10 in the industry but okay.
2nd best in the industry can't get a good DoP, Color Designer and Art Director? lol

@_Rearden_ best at mappa but not the entire industry thats why i said good enough

@deg Dude, Mappa's animation producers are the best in the industry. Matsunaga, Seshimo, Ogawa, Hasegawa are all very good. Even Okamura, who just debuted, is performing very well

@feyyazu35 not really i say cloverworks animation producers beats them all alone like umehara

you people are just blind fanboys of mappa

@feyyazu35 also i heard mappa ceo is just good at negotiating to get the best source materials like manga to animate so its not like their animation producers are good now because of that in fact many hired freelance animators by them are bitching about overwork at mappa

mappa has this tactic to get the popular intellectual property source materials then obviously the talented freelance animators that are fans of the source materials too will automatically want to join the anime adaptation projects so less work for mappa animation producers that way on gathering talented staff

@feyyazu35 thats all you blind fanboys of mappa are calling others that disagree with you as stupid and hater, typical savage fans like you are i have met many arrogant mappa fanboys like you already meanwhile im hype for lazarus and zenshu if they can deliver good and im enjoying ranma remake right now also enjoyed jujutsu kaisen especially season 2 despite the bitching of the staff about the overwork by mappa

you blind fanboys ignores the bad working conditions at mappa while they exploit the fanboy freelancers by making their favorite ips as hostages there, if their management like animation producers are top tier they would not have a bad reputation among freelancers

@deg While ignoring it? I said Bucchigiri production is terrible, how could I have ignored it? Dude, exploiting employees doesn't work like that, exploiting employees is the last piece of shit that Shaft studio has done, you can research it if you want. I don't know where you heard it from, Mappa never exploited its employees, those who complained were always freelancers, so they all came by their own choice, and most of them come back, and Mappa never forces them to come, so what you say is wrong. And the reason why the employees complain so easily about Mappa is that Mappa can't get them to sign a contract and Mappa is already known for this, so it has nothing to do with the animation producer. If we look at it from your perspective, Umeraha is not talented either

@deg Dude, Mappa's animation producers are the best in the industry. Matsunaga, Seshimo, Ogawa, Hasegawa are all very good. Even Okamura, who just debuted, is performing very well

@feyyazu35 The only good AniP at Mappa is Hasegawa who was trained by IG. Rest are carried by Director's connections. Their AniP are terrible at management.
Fukushi (OPM, Sunny Boy) and Okada (Great Pretender, Ousama Ranking, Yaiba) are prime Animation producers. They have connections to whole industry and also good with management.
Matsunga have 1 project before Lazarus which is dororo. All the connections are from Directior Furuhashi. The production of that project melted around ep. 15. That project was no where near the quality of Fukushi, Umehara or Okada projects.

@feyyazu35 the freelancers are hired by mappa so they are their employees too even if temporary https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2021-05-18/former-mappa-animator-describes-working-conditions-as-like-a-factory/.172930

sure most anime studios do labor exploitation too but i met a lot of mappa fans excusing them or downplaying their own labor exploitation like you are doing here when mentioning shaft studio

@deg Dude, that logic doesn't make sense at all. It's ridiculous to think that all freelancers working at Mappa are within the company. And the link you posted is a 2021 thread, Shaft's shit happened this year, you can research Shaft's terrible treatment of in-house Super Animator Hiroto Nagata

@feyyazu35 you do not know temporary hiring? what even freelancers do anyway? you lack common sense thats why it does not make sense to you

also we are talking about mappa not shaft so get out with your whataboutism

@deg Dude, are you high? You keep denying it and then you talk about Mappa lol. Dude, you have to understand that Shaft is worse than Mappa, employees at CloverWorks were hospitalized and this never happened at Mappa, A-1 Pictures also had people commit suicide from overwork, so you have to be very ignorant to say Mappa is the worst, so don't go on. If you're going to cry, cry somewhere else because Mappa is definitely not the worst, not even close
