Something people must realize about animation and anime nowadays.

I'm pretty sure Bones doesn't have that many in-house animators. They have an animation department, but AFAIK most of the ones that get promoted to key animators tend to go freelance either way.

But that is another example, veteran animators keep returning to the studio because Masahiko Minami actually appreciates creative staff.

the missing thing in your puzzle are the anip aka animation producers employed by an anime studio

think fukushi of madhouse being their top animation producer that did one punch man season 1 and frieren season 1

think of umehara of cloverworks being their top animation producer that did my dress up darling, wonder egg priority, etc

animation producers aka anip by default has the duty to gather the main staff especially talented staff if they can they have the connections or nepotism

so when people praise an anime studio they are secretly praising the animation producer employed by the anime studio

@deg Yeah true, to me it seems the main problem is bandai namco, they also produced blue lock, they seem to be incompetent at handling their ip's.

@Oongbuh Isn't yutaka nakamura in house for bones?
i know he's worked as freelance for other series as well but i'm pretty sure he has appeared in every anime bones has made.

Facts. This is why many were scared that our director was a former hentai director. Most of the time, hentai directors don't have the craziest connections so their productions don't look as strong as it could look.

Not sure if its true, but I saw on reddit that "opm went to jc staff's non-action production line and sent their best producer on another project".

Since we all know what is going to be adapted next ep, we can only pray that was either the final product or close to it, cause if it was pre-animated, then we are slightly beyond cooked.

And white knights people like you must realize how real world works outside of mal, Reddit, Twitter/X etc. We are under no obligation to care or to find the exact reason why the product failed. When buy a car you expect it to be with the features that it was advertised to you, when you go to a restaurant and you order a dish you are gonna have to get that dish with the quality that you expect from a x expensive restaurant. If you get your BMW with exhaust gas & differential pressure sensor failure it is not your business to learn about who was the big bad guy that didn't care about the problem in your car, you sent the car back to BMW to fix the problem. When you order a Almas Caviar from a Michelin restaurant you expect the chefs to give that dish with the quality you must expect. OPM s3 is the exact same. You pay for it ( for example like me via Crunchyroll etx) and you expect the quality as close as possible to the manga. It's not like the manga is crap and somehow people want god like animation . In this anime case we... literally... don't... have... animation at all. Most of them are still images and for some strange reason white nights like you are very frequent on anime productions that have similar animation like OPM S2,S3 that either have the same kind of animation because the mangaka like that way for example The Way of the Househusband anime series or anime production that can't afford better animation such as billion of romance and isekai anime and trash in the worst way possible without giving a damn why the animation quality is low or ''about animation and anime nowadays.'' . How you expect people to take you seriously and like what what I said in another thread, we are not union to care about what happens inside the studio.

Vincent Chansard, in an interview recently, (indirectly) said that he was also disappointed with the way season 2 was handled, and would've loved to participate if had been invited. When he was asked if he knew anything about season 3 production, or if he is involved anyhow, he simply commented "I'm not allowed to speak about its production".

Now this comment got me thinking, Why would he not talk about it when he's not involved and if he was aware of what was going on?

Food for thought....

Rezero S3 had a pretty poor production quality Imao

Yea sure buddy S3’s production woes were very noticeable in the second half 🤣

Bones’s animation team has been primarily focused on My Hero Academia since 2016
