Is he right, /a/?
On some issues, yes. Majority is just bitter old man parroting things said by other directors for decades. It resounds with certain people just because it's been said for so long and is a nice catch-all term for issues typically not in a studios control.

No.
>>138939928
Maybe.
>>138939928
I don't know
>>138939928
Can you repeat the question?
>>138940937
you're not the boss of me
fucking reddit pls go
who is this old bag of shit? the director of SAO??
>>138939928
In the sense that anime has both stagnated as a medium and an art form for 30 years, definitely.
>>138939928
>>138939928
I think it's because of the way that anime is produced rather than the fact that it exists at all.
Japan has a really fucked up way of funding production of anime: by using the anime to sell overpriced shit (BDs, figmas, whatever). They're going the Disney route while not having a market as big or as wealthy to draw from.
Here in the States cartoons are pitched, purchased, and produced before the TV station sees a dime of the advertising money derived from the cartoon's ratings.
No this gook would have just made anime Disney 2 nip edition
>>138939928
Yes, don't get why people have a hard time admitting it
As someone who has invested 10 years watching anime exhaustively, I can tell you he is not right, not because otakus are not degenerates, but anime was shit before he started studio ghibli. Anime has always been about shitty light novels/slice of life dramas and mech shows to sell toys, then all of sudden a lot of great original Anime was aired in the late 80s early 90s perhaps that was the golden age and after that period of time faded anime returned to it's original state. SHIT.

This is hilarious considering Miyazaki thinks 50's-60's stuff was the golden age and everything now(especially sci-fi) is shit

>>138942032
This is what always gets me in these discussions. Everyone argues over 80s and 90s shit when Miyazaki really just wants Tezuka to never have existed and for anime to have continued being Toei making movies out of old folktales animated on 1s.
>>138939928
Miyazaki was a mistake
>>138941350
That's a question?
No way! He's left.
>considers anime to be Japan's national shame and it shouldn't be exported to gaijin
Miyazaki is a pretty funny old guy considering he began taking Disneybux to make more western-friendly cartoon movies.
Miyazaki/Ghibli had a few real stinkers, too. I think people choose to forget they exist.
It's true animu doesn't look as good as it used to. They can churn it out faster and cheaper, trying to make more money out of the business, but it lacks those little handcrafted details it used to have.
