Free! is the only recent show by KyoAni that did commercially well and now its director just confirmed to have left the studio.
Is this the end for KyoAni?
They had a good run.

It isn't.
>>140524563
You think they watched the show for the director? Most Free fans wouldn't be able to name it. Also >>140524607
Fuck Takemoto.

No but KyoAni's other directors can't make anime that sell anymore.
Just look at how hard High Speed bombed.
Why did KyoAni suddenly release a new K-on merch?
They need money.

They do something for the month K-On! started airing every year.
Source on that? And also I remember Chuu2 doing well.
>>140524563
If it's confirmed then where's the source?
She's been listed as a part of Animation DO in the KnK movie; Kyoani's sister studio
>>140525971
She worked on the new Yugi-Oh movie.
>She's been listed as a part of Animation DO in the KnK movie
Again, that was 2 years ago and doesn't mean shit anymore.
Hell, they didn't even list her in the second movie.

Has she worked on anything else besides that Yugioh movie?
>>140526204
>2 years ago
It's been 1 year.

>he thinks Utsumi was good
>he believes Free! wouldn't have sold if it were in other hands
>he believes High Speed's flop was due to Utsumi's leave and not the sheer fact that they replaced the entire main cast with shotas
>>140529812
There wouldn't be Free! in any other hands because it was Utsumi's idea to make it what it is.
