Ok, so I've seen a bunch of people (Or some lone autist)

>>146257530
>Madhouse
Stopped reading right there. They're dead move on.

>>146257672
They at least have older work to cling to, and their current anime (Mob Psycho 100) is about the same level as SilverLink's current anime (Illya Prisma).

I just want to know why anyone would possibly shill for SilverLink so hard.

>>146257530
>White Fox
When will this shitty meme die?

When talking about studios, only KyoAni and Shaft are up there and that's because they have made a BRAND. Those are the only two studios that people would care if their favorite manga/novel/ln/vn/whatever gets an adaptation.

Whenever a somewhat popular work gets an adaptation and it's not by any of those two, the only thing you can hear is disappointment. I'm not saying any other studio is bad. In fact, they're capable, like WF that has made a handful of good shows in the recent past (and like them, there's some more studios with a decent record [looking at DogaKobo]). But again, they don't have a BRAND.

>>146257989
Mob Psycho is by Bones, you dolt.
Also,
>implying Illya is anywhere as good as Mob Psycho
Reevaluate your shit taste.

>>146257530
Silver Link has shitty quality animation for most everything. Sometimes they decide to go all out for action scenes, but too bad I don't give a shit about fights, and their SoL looks shit, so for me they are definitely low tier.

>this entire thread
Fuck off back to /ghost/ Nagi

>>146258299
I don't really care about White Fox, but I can't find fault with the fact that they've at least managed to create 2 blockbusters with S;G and Re:Zero, and have an overall decent body of work. I'm curious to see how their first original anime will do next season.

SilverLink is a fucking meme though. I want to know who is fucking shilling this mediocre studio.

>>146257530
What are you talking about? KyoAni shows were never been good

>>146258583
Who could it be?
Maybe the autist Fate kids who swarm every Illya thread, because it is after all Fate?
Not exactly a rocket science.

>>146258391
>implying Illya is anywhere as good as Mob Psycho

You're right, Illya is better.

>>146257530
Silver Link is Poor manga's Ufotable

>>146258831
>this is what Fateshitters believe
Prisma is lolicon trash for chuunis and the production values are dogshit. Seriously, it's one of the shows with the worst layouts and background design this season.

>>146258299
It's just some people sick of the Shaft/Kyoani war. Same with Silver Link.

NNB is one of the better SOL series out there though.

>>146258893
>he took the bait

I'm not even watching anything this season desu.

>>146258723
Oh, that makes sense. It's the same retards who shill for Ufotable because they did the Fate/Zero adaptation.

That explains a lot.

>>146257530
They made the best high school magic series (Rakudai), the best slice of life series (NNB), and they do SHAFT style better than SHAFT thanks to Oonuma Shin. it's not hard to see why their popular

>>146258893
This, and I have to mention they even fail the lolicon part hard. They do one good kiss scene and then proceed to fuck up or cut out anything else lolicon.

>>146259201
This is bait

>>146259261
I'm guessing you don't know who Oonuma Shin is?

>>146259300
I do know that whoever calls Rakudai a "best high school magic series" is full of shit taste

>>146259348
What are you mad about? It's not exactly a high bar.

>>146259024
Go check out SilverLink's full work list. It's insanely hit-or-miss, with more misses than hits.

NNB is pretty decent, but that's literally the best thing they've ever done. They have 3-4 "alright" shows besides that, but then a whole bunch of absolute shit.

SilverLink is the epitome of an average studio.

>>146259428
Calling someone on having shit taste is not exactly being mad.

>>146259490

Anne Happy is great, but the visuals were horrible.

>>146259691
And that image cuts off like half of their shows which are absolute garbage.

I don't know why anyone would see SilverLink's name next to a production and feel anything but indifference.

>>146259691
Kokoro Connect was their best show.

>>146259991
That had a shitty winning girl.

SilverLink is just a studio that hipsters throw out as their favorite studio because it's obscure and a relatively inoffensive opinion, but it's shit.

Kyoani is still top dog, SHAFT despite struggling recently is second, and White Fox is the new up-and-coming studio.

Why are there so many bad anime studios

>>146259691

I enjoyed quite a few of those shows. Silver link is definitely not one of the top studios but most of their shows are generally watchable.

If you don't like Prisma and NNB you can get the fuck out.

>>146259691

Welcome to Chaos;World.

>>146260416
Problem isn't NNB and Prisma, is the fact that SilverLink has made about 20 shows, and 3/4ths of them are garbage.

And even then, the shows they have that are good, aren't spectacular. SilverLink is a meme, fuck off fatefags.

>>146260736

That's still better than all other studios.

Not Kyoani, SHAFT or White Fox. Those studios maintain a good hit rate in terms of content, and have flagship material to cling to in terms of making waves in the industry.

Silverlink isn't notable at all.

At any rate, SilverLink is mediocre garbage regardless of sales.

>>146263581
Except their mediocre garbage is more enjoyable to watch than J.C, madhouse and DEEN. Probably even shaft's lowest point is worst than the average silver link.

After the studiowarriors were forced to realize that KyoAni vs Shaft was nothing more but a proxy-battle between Bandai and Sony, it is now time to throw in other studios for a new bout.

I love how people throw White Fox around now. Probably newfags that have never heard of them before ReZero aired. Almost an insult to the shows they made that are actually good.

>>146263699
If you want to make the argument that SilverLink is cream of the crop among the middling studio's then I don't really care. It's just I'm tired of seeing people interject SilverLink in the discussions of top studio, which is right now Kyoani vs SHAFT while withholding judgement on White Fox till we see their first original production.

>>146263914
Re:Zero is what made White Fox more than a one hit wonder.

They struck gold with S;G, and steadily produced all-around good content besides it, but Re:Zero has now given the studio expectations.

>>146264309
Seriously, why Re:Zero of all works, how much did it sell?
Cause Volume 2 and onwards seem to be stuck somewhere 8-15k with its sales, which is not better than GochiUsa did, which is also their only non casual big hitter.

>shilling

Also misusing ... is also a shitty way to post

>>146264507
The Devil is a part Timer also sold 10k, and Katagatari sold 8k, so the have a history of hitting it out of the park.

>>146265126

Gochiusa sold more than REEE:Zero. So, counting both seasons, Whitefox has 4 10k+ shows (though R:Z is likely to drop below on average).

>>146257530

Silver Link are trash but just about any sane person could have figured that out. People go on about them because they adapt the Prisma Illya manga and anything Fate related makes people act like complete retards now so that's about it. All those studios you mentioned are hit or miss in their own right though except maybe Madhouse who are generally good on average. At least they're one of the few remaining studios left that don't just do exclusively weird annoying light novel or other otaku bait shit season after season.

>>146272073

Yeah well you're not doing any better convincing me that Kyoani and Shaft are the most amazing things in animation on gods green Earth so it's king of hard to give a shit what you think about other studios to be honest.

>>146272188
I'm not interested in discussing the merits of Kyoani and Shaft. I'm calling your ignorant ass out on for thinking that Madhouse are good on average and are somehow special. They're not.

>>146272208
Bones can do amazing animation, and have connections with many of the industry's top animators. Not everything they make is good or even great, but the studio's flagship projects tend to be worth paying attention to.

>>146272270

And I don't care because you're not actually following it up with any sort of convincing argument as to why you think that and just spewing shit that until you do has no meaning or purpose. Seriously why should I care in the absence of a reason.

I'm sure you know what the reply for that is so here's your (You).

SLfags don't even know their studio's best show which Baka To Test.

>>146272360
Okay, lets address your points:
>good on average
Come on mate, their post-Maruyama output has been generally unremarkable save for a handful like HxH(just for the consistent production values), One Punch Man, and Death Billiards. Then you get shit like NGNL, Photokano, Parasyte, Mahouka, and that gay running show for instance. The studio is hit-or-miss just like everyone else.

And their portfolio is full of LN trash and otaku pandering shit too, the only exception being they animate some stuff that could have mainstream appeal like Chihayafuru, but that's not exclusive to Madhouse either.

Shaft is getting fellated good itt.
They haven't done anything worth a shit since the last madoka movie.

>>146272613
Okay, I forgot Bunghole Gay Dogs was done by them. But I didn't pick it up because the characters are atrocious, which isn't Bones' fault.

The other shows are good or at least interesting to watch, so go fuck yourself.

>>146272489
>Why does everybody seem to rate those two so highly?
KyoAni is the only one that is consistent with their visual quality, while Monogatarifags keep getting milked hard.

>>146272489
Both KyoAni and Shaft have highly distinctive approaches to their presentation, but it in terms of design, animation, or directing. One look at their shows and you can quite easily tell which studio made it. Sunrise and Toei are less homogeneous in their approach as they are large studios and thus they don't have a unified style and approach to their projects.

Ah alright, thanks anons

>>146272489

Memeing, people being ignorant fucks, and what I call people being fake as shit about opinions. In Japan those you mentioned would be among the studios that frequently enter conversations about significant anime studios along with the likes of I.G, Ghibli, Pierrot, OLM, Madhouse, TMS and perhaps Gainax in a historical context You know the ones that have actually done multiple things that have penetrated the mainstream consciousness both in Japan and abroad. You really get a sense of just how populate the current Western anime community is with Niwaka Otaku types when the only studio debate they seem capable of having are studios that have only had their highest period of relevance within the last 10 years or so and entirely within the late night anime sphere.

As for Sunrise and Toei putting more effort into things, you need to be watching more of their OVA's and movies is all I can say and no I'm not talking about things like Love Live The School Idol Movie but Gundam Thunberbolt, Origin, Unicorn, Psychic School Wars and many others from their classic catalog.

>>146272208
Mob Psycho 100 and Space Dandy are the best TV anime made in the last 10-15 years. There were so many key animators working on Space Dandy that at one point you couldn't even tell it was fucking Bones anymore.

>>146272632
In this case, it's a pretty valid argument because of how one-sided it is.

White Fox has made 10 shows, and nearly half of them have sold over 10k.

SilverLink has made over 20 shows and I'm not sure if a single one has ever breached 10k, and SilverLink doesn't have the same excuse as Madhouse that produces stuff knowing full well it's not gonna sell a lot of BDs.

>It was just a re:zero-white fox bait thread

>>146272648

Thank you for trying, now you have validly stated a real opinion and given some bloody insight. I actually agree with you about their good and bad recent series, particularly Parasyte which I have no idea what people see in it. Awful soundtrack, terrible production values and kind of bad directing with a rather generic storyline that doesn't feel nearly as explored as it could have been. Also they do do otaku pandering shit now which is why I used the phrase don't exclusively as opposed to never do. Too me at least in the relative context of the anime industry this makes them good on average considering just about everyone else has thoroughly sold out hard to moe LN/VN otaku pandering or have literally never tried anything else in their history while even in 2016 that doesn't exclusively make up Madhouse catalog.

>>146272657
>implying Rebellion wasn't shit

>>146272728
Shaft style doesn't really sell unless the IP they're adapting is successful to begin with.
Madoka is really the only good show whose success can be attributed to them.

>>146272764
Blame the fatefags. They dragged SilverLink in to the fray the same way they did to poor Ufotable.

>>146272764

I can say that about just about any studio though. LN's are literally the absolute bottom of the barrel entertainment you could possible choose to base a show off of and the main reason anime is so shit these days as they compromise the bulk of what is now considered popular content ripe for the milking aside from Gacha scam games.

>>146272937
Ufotable never really did anything of note besides Fate and some garbage Tales adaptations.

Unless you're one of the five people who remember Yuri Seijin Naoko-san or Manabi Straight.

>>146272843
>implying sales is the only factor that determines how good a studio is

>>146273015
Kara no Kyoukai was that brought them into the limelight, no? Before that they were just that little studio who did wacky comedies with claymation ED gimmicks.

A-1's major productions are good, they just have a b-team working on low budget anime that you fags don't even watch

>>146272937
Nobody brings up Silver Link just for Illya.

Meanwhile nobody except Nasu dick suckers gives a fuck about ufotable.

>>146272798
Pierott is another studio I rarely see mentioned now that I think about it

Is it generally just the waifu baiting studios that get a lot if traction in these threads?
I haven't heard much about them doing shows like that.

As for Toei's films I have noticed a production value increase on a few of the films but I feel like they stopped caring about series lately, especially looking at DB Super's animation quality.

>>146272818
Yeah that's why I brought Bones up
They seem massively underrated on /a/ and a good number of the online communities

Was wondering if they were a massively hit or miss studio

>>146257530
Stop baiting you retard. /a/ barely mentions SL outside of the threads of the shows they handle. I know you just want to mention a third-rate studio to tangentially start a studio wars shitposting thread but Jesus fucking Christ.

The only one who forced them into the spotlight is you alone because of this thread.

>>146273116
Pretty sure he meant Pierrot thirty years ago, all their first world cogs were cut and indians make onepieceofbleach

>>146273103
>Because they do a good job of adapting shit series
Since when? Every one of their adaptations are mediocre at best.

>>146261520

Re:Zero is still selling. For the amount of advert or marketing budget it had. It has certainly turned a profit for kadokawa.

You can't compare it to Sunshine either.

This is why most anime fans are stupid. You are comparing something like "The Conjuring" to Marvel Movies with (giant marketing and brand behind it)

They are currently building the Re:Zero IP which is still very very new.


Both of Stray Dogs and Joker Game stopped selling. Stray Dogs is based on a pretty popular manga series. The characters are based on very popular japanese author.

Joker Game is based on a hugely popular novel. It even had a live action film.

Both are huge flops considering the source.

Re:Zero is a BRAND NEW ip started in 2014.

>>146273213
What do you mean anon?

>>146273066
Well, that's also Type-Moon.

>>146273213
Pierrot have Koreans working on their shows, but they do have a lot of the production done in Japan. For their long-running shows, it's been a rotation between in-house Japanese teams and foreign Korean teams.

>>146273077
Nobody was forcing SL super hard until Illya Prisma started airing

>>146266847
No he isn't. He is making a judgement based on the quality of your posts which are shit and really cringeworthy. I thought you were false flagging or something but you really don't even know how annoying you are.

>>146273116

Studios that make shows that the sorts of people that post on /a/ 24/7 would claim to like so yeah basically. Thing is again I'm not even convinced that many people like them because it's really hard to tell when people on /a/ are being sincere about things they say the way they have to state just about everything like complete fucking retards and in the most inflammatory way possible for obvious reasons. I'm convinced it's just something they ritualistically do because it's likely to get the most shitflinging and participants going.

>>146273285
You're fucking high. Prisma has getting a new season for four years straight now and SL still hasn't been mentioned a lot despite that.
If you want to argue anything, then at least know that it was NNB that made them spike in popularity in this board for a bit.

>>146273285
This won't magically become true, regardless of how many times you say it.

>>146273116

Bones was more popular back when internet forums that are mostly populated by millenials that watch output almost exclusively from studios like A-1, SHAFT, White Fox, Kyoani etc. Before say 2006 you would hardly even see these studios mentioned at all, partially because literally half of them didn't even exist back then but you'd sure as hell see Bones, Sunrise, I.G and the like mentioned or name dropped. At one point Code Geass was even the definitive anime on /a/, a series by a nearly 50 year old studio that is neither Kyoani nor Shaft.

And besides Re:Zero is #1 on crunchyroll which is a pretty global streaming site.

That should give a good indication of its popularity outside of japan.

Most white fox shows aside from SG and Akame Ga Kill are very japan bound.

I prefer this kind of omnidirectional shitflinging over SHAFT vs Kyoani.

>>146273351
>Prisma illya anime came out 4 years ago
HOW?
Time really fucking flies, I could've sworn it started 2 years ago.

>>146273239

I kind of have to give a little bit of respect to Re:Zero because while it's far from my favorite and the whole Isekei LN thing aside which is fast becoming one of those genres that's really easy to have a successful series in it seems to have gotten popular on it's own over time just by community word of mouth and reception compared to say something like Haifuri or Love Live which were literally marketing blitzed down it's potential fans throats to a nauseating degree before they even got anime. It's like the difference between genuine popularity and marketing influenced hype based popularity cause the former I can actually see lasting beyond a year or two.

>>146263882
The only dependency Kyoani has is towards Lantis. Kyoani is pretty high up in Koe no Katachi's production committee.

>>146273388
Yeah that was ten years ago grandpa, in the year 2016 bones is making negative money and sunrise produces idolshit

>>146273285
Nobody was forcing SL at all even when Illya Prisma was airing.

Not until crossboarders and newfags who swarmed in for the re:zero threads started to shitpost on how glorious their meme show's studio is.

As you can see this is just a White Fox bait thread.

Make it stop. ;_;

I'm surprised we've gone over 150 posts in a studio wars thread, and not a single bad thing has been said about Kyoani.

Doesn't SL appear in the credits for Re Zero?

>>146273311
You might be right on that
I'm fairly convinced that /a/ has the youngest average age on 4chan (barring maybe /co/ or /v/) and it definitely does out of the boards I visit so the idea of people just saying things to either fit in or fling shit is hardly difficult to imagine

>>146273388
So I take it Gen X are just otakufags and western hikikomori?

>>146273429
>my decades old studio isn't being mentioned because nobody watches their good old shit
>everyone keeps shilling these newshit studios because my favorite studio stopped making good shit
Since /a/ really only cares about currently airing shit, this actually makes sense despite how much it sounds like shit flinging.

>>146273512
Nothing unusual for studios to take on minor subcontract work for others.

>>146273512
Contractual work. Probably inbetweens or some shit like that.

Most studios do it and they get aptly credited as well.

>>146273518
>didnt Space Dandy make a killing
It sold next to nothing in Japan, don't think we have numbers for worldwide or US sales.

They had a large success with Kekkai Sensen last year though.

Kadokawa and Tv Tokyo are the producers.

They're not top tier but they aren't shit like you're going on.

But they did deliver us the greatest SoL of our time so we can't be too harsh on them.

>>146273447

Oh also I should say Love Live clearly does have genuine popularity and has lasted now but before the first anime came out nobody was really sure it was going to be a success and it just seemed like it was going to be Bandai trying to have another iDOLM@STER type series that judging by it's then sub 1K disc sales wasn't going to pan out. Haifuri however just seems like an entirely manufactured case of a company outspending the rest of it's competition by several orders of magnitude just to get a series that is finishing 5th overall in seasonal sales and has fuck ton of merchandise that doesn't sell.

>>146273512
Every studio works on every anime nowadays.

Except KyoAnus because they're rich as fuck.

White fox's art is mediocre and they only run adaptations, what is there to like about them?

By virtue of Shinbo's old right hand man working there. I can't say I hate them.

>>146273647
>rich as fuck
Nigga please, they're poor as fuck like everyone else. The only reason they don't need help is because they only make like 2 shows a year.

>>146273502
At least people talk about them.

>>146272166
It will always be about the sales-numbers. The staff working on the projects are irrelevant. For studiowarriors trying to sound as grand as the consolewarriors of /v/ who throw around real impressive numbers, only that is the metric they fight.

>>146273518

/v/ seems slightly angrier and stupider about everything for no discernible reason but /a/ isn't that far behind and just has the most utterly worthless cyclical threads lately. I honestly think it's just because in 2016 anime just attracts idiots and assholes more than anything. It's pretty bad and cynical right now as a hobby just in terms of the kind of content we mainly get. A lot of the time /a/ just gives the vibe of an elementary school recess fight in terms of the shit people come out with to say at other random people. There's also some clear constants like autism, reddit etc. that you'd almost think have some sort of daily quota.

Most of Gen X is also too old to be watching anime (and god knows I'm starting to feel that way in the last 6-7 seasons) and if they are they're probably more into things like Gundam, Macross/Robotech, Yamato and the like. If you're Fillipino maybe add Voltes V and likewise for South America Saint Seiya.

>>146263882
Do you even realize how interconnected Sony and Bandai are? Both are controlled by the same family and Sony owns a fuckton of Bandai assets and shares.

>>146257530
>so I've seen a bunch of people (Or some lone autist) shilling abnormally hard for this studio lately
Stop lying out of your ass.

>>146257530
Silver Link is pretty decent. They're not top tier or groundbreaking in any way, but their shows tend to be pretty good, and pretty well animated and pretty good-looking. They're no KyoAni or SHAFT, but they are at least above the level of JC Saff or DEEN.

>>146273778

But like at least with video games sales numbers can actually be kind of impactful so it makes sense for shitflinging purposes. Anime sales are a fucking joke especially nowadays because home video is quite possibly the lowest grossing medium in all of Japan in terms of average unit sales thanks to being so ridiculously overpriced, lack of storage space and not to mention a brutally bad economy to the point where you're talking about volumes in the low to mid 4 digit figures as if it's some sort of grand triumph where people are just getting BTFO all the time. How do you take it seriously when some guy is like "fuck you and your show" because they're shows first volume sold a few hundred units more.

I'd have a better time taking music sales more seriously but nobody ever talks about those. Can't say I entirely blame them because if we're talking anime that basically just means is there a Love Live or iDOLM@STER CD coming out that week? If the answer is no then there might be something to work with.

>>146273856

They aren't owned by the same family but they are both key players in Anime Consortium Japan and it's pretty obvious they share a lot of the same assets, resources and personal at a rate that doesn't just look like freelancing and coincidence.

>>146257530
Silver Link has a lot of good anime under it's belt.
SHAFT is shit because there's some weird shit they do on their animes, it's not even funny.
Kyoani has gone to the fujoshits.
DEEN is shit, it ruined Log Horizon. Nothing really good can come out of that studio.
Madhouse is dead and the last bit of animation I liked from them was in Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold.
J.C. Staff has ugly quality most of the time.
Should I even mention White Fox, Trigger, Bones and P.A. Works?

Anyway, the only studio warrior who exist on /a/ but rarely speak is I.G.fag. I don't know why though, since IG is big studio & mostly rated as good studio.

>ITT newfriends who think people only like silverlink because prisma is airing this season

That aside Silverlink is a fairly good studio not for it's animation (which is pretty average all things considered) but because they choose to adapt things that other studios wouldn't really think to.

This works out great sometimes, but more often than not it backfires-- as seen in its infancy. Lately they've been very good with their adaptations and have been raking in a respectable number of sales with their latest series. (tanaka excluded)

Prisma season 1 is a VERY solid Mahou Shoujo and anyone who disagrees is either trolling or hasnt ever watched any. The later works are fine if you're into fate and lewd.

NNB was widely considered to be great by most of /a/ as well as nips which does say something; not to mention the fact that Slice of Life is a fairly difficult genre to do well without moe, romance, lewdness.

Tanaka kun was great except that it was confusing to many since it seemed like a BL series which it wasnt, leading to both sales losses from the fujos as well as the general audience.


I could go on but then the newfriends probably don't know anything beyond what aired after 2015

>>146274056
>>146274329
>I'm a huuuuuuge fan of Sunrise and Silver Link works.

>>146274401

>>146274441
You forgot Baka-test, which is one of the greatest comedies in recent years.
The only reason no one mentions it is because most of /a/ have shit taste and wanted worst girl to win.

>>146274441
>not to mention the fact that Slice of Life is a fairly difficult genre to do well without moe, romance, lewdness.
How to spot a newfag 101.

I hate the studio because a particular hack director I like is stuck there adapting garbage shows instead of just running back to big daddy Shinbo again so they could all smoke weed in their cardboard boxes again.

The soundtrack to Thunderbolt is one of the best I've heard in a long time. Only Sunrise would think something like it's 2016 so clearly Jazz is the answer.

>>146274472
Do you have a source on that? If you don't, stop lying.

>>146274477
SoL IS harder to do as opposed to general shonen where you can have flashy action sequences to carry a series through without much regard to anything else.

With SoL you have to rely on other things such as sound, visuals, dialogue/characterization and so on since there aren't any explosions/speedlines to distract the viewer from shit quality.

Not saying one is more superior to the other, but I do believe that one does require more effort to do well. This would explain why good SoL is fairly hard to come by.

>>146274472
Please tell me you're joking, anon.
I'm hype for this project. It give me Bebop x FLCL vibes.

>>146274401

Sunrise almost kind of seems to have packed it up aside from Gundam, Love Live and whatever Bandai Namco Pictures projects are going on these days. They've been deathly silent for a few years now.

>>146274541
Thats how japan rolls, they never openly say a project was cancelled, they simple never mention it again. See also: Girls Work and Cencoroll 2

>>146274587
>Cencoroll 2

>>146274587
Kabaneri was supposed to come out in 2015 and wasn't mentioned for a while but it still came out, I think it's still to early to say it got axed.

>>146274542
Both Amanchu and Flying Witch did SoL well without any of the stuff you mentioned.

>>146274555

Nothing like that has ever been said but then again absolutely no news of it has come out of Sunrise. like I said above I've been wondering just what the hell has been going on with them for a while now.

Wonder why Aniplex hasn't sunk their fangs into SL yet?

>>146274645

Gundam and Love Live aside and even then sometimes with them Sunrise has a tendency to kind of just drop info on people about stuff right around this time every year with no warning whatsoever. It'll be like months of nothing and then suddenly things happening.

>>146274542
>photograph and trace landscape images for backgrounds

>>146274632
Kabaneri still got sporadic updates before the first proper PV and release date were revealed.

>>146274680
Because A-1 and SHAFT already exists.

>>146274680

Silver Link tends to be more affiliated with Lantis but then again basically same thing. Don't forget by categorization both are technically music companies.

>>146273512
Literally any popular 2nd-key animator is handled by Silver Link.

>>146274645
Fuck. They still owe us Nichibro S2 which basically can easily animated by Sunrise without breaking a sweat.

>>146274920
>2nd-key animator
>popular
That's obscure even for sakugafags

>>146274883

They tend to prey on smaller otherwise insignificant studios that can't support themselves and won't ask for a piece of whatever pie they think they've got to get them to animate their shit I think was the reasoning behind his question. You can also usually tell when they are lower down on the production committee for something which isn't often when it actually turns out halfway decent.

>>146274972
I mean, I honestly don't know if SL is still a 'small' middling studio anymore. Maybe a few years ago but they even their own off-shoot studio now.

>>146274680

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=14218

They definitely use them to outsource but then so does everybody

>>146274999
>>146275073

They do a lot of 2nd key animation for some pretty significant shows. The industry would definitely get sent reeling if they were to close down and several ongoing projects would no doubt bottleneck up and be completely unable to continue and make deadlines. A-1 would probably just try to run whatever they've got anyway because they couldn't possibly care less about anything they do at this point but other studios that use them would have a problem.

serious question tho. why did shin left shaft?

Studio wars are garbage.

Here's an easier way to know the actual pecking order. Imagine if there was an anime about Studio-tans. Who's your best girl?

>>146275646
Yes. I watch REEE:Zero and REEEwatching it every day.

Their artstyle is pretty cute and fluffy. It's great for cute girl shows.

>>146275766
First, someone needs to draw cute studo-tans with a look and personality that matches what the studio in question normally does.

Surely some Japanese drawfags ought to have done something like that already.
