How many hours/week did she work?
I can't believe that's a full time worker's wage in a first world country.
Unskilled construction laborers earn more here.

>>149303557
Her salary was 106k yen. 67k after the expenses like
taxes 10029
bento price 7990
boarding expenses 15000
condo fees 3000
bus ticket 2500

So it's not so bad.

It all depends on the country/city really.

But it's pretty clear that the salary was enough since even with all her expenses she still has 70% of it. I still think animators should be paid more, but yeah.

No, only if you're still inbetweener after 3 years, PA Works will ask you 6k yen per month.
For comparison, Production IG will ask you 10k yen for that.

But it doesn't matter, because this basically they're telling you "leave the anime industry already when you still young".
>>
>>149304520
how does this to compare to a job at 7-11 or something
>>
>>149304520
>>149304546
Both are from same person though, she's inbetweener.
>>
>>149304573
Most animators do have part-time jobs if they have time.

Still, I don't see why would anyone want to be an animator, it's a garbage job. Just study ANYTHING and get a job, even fixing PCs gets you more than that
>>
>>149304554
So it's a fee for working with them for so long.
>>
>>149303557
Doesnt seems that bad honestly.

67k a month, after living expenses, including housing, food and transport.

then again, paying for the working space seems pretty retarded.

We don't know how many hours she worked per day.

We don't know how good/dysmal were the living conditions for those expenses

We don't know if the "bento"expenses covered a meal every day or was just a one time charge.

Frankly we can't say shit about this

Yeah. I looked it up properly. It's their most profitable and least profitable months as an animator.

She's inbetweener(動画), animator(原画) normally can get 150-200k average.

No.
But she says she worked 40 consecutive days.
>>
>>149304762

Harsh. I wonder if KyoAni staff face similar conditions when it's crunch time.
>>
>>149304554
This.
Furthermore, she's not an employee, she's a freelance renting her workspace

>ぼくたちは!社員でもないのに会社に机をお借りして仕事を頂いている!

For the first 3 years they let you work there for free while giving you work on their shows, if you can't pass the genga test by them they start charging you 6,000 yen a month out of whatever you earn for use of the space.
>>
>>149304738
Because they're simply ask you to leave the anime industry.
Inbetweener is a job that normally even Korean or Chinese can do well, recruit inbetweener in Japan simply means they want you have good enough to become animator as soon as possible, if that person takes long time and still can't have good enough skill, that means he/she just wasting their time.

You can't even pay for a single LDK 15m^2 apartment in tokyo with that. When I was working in Tokyo, an apartment cost like 100k yen to rent and my salary was about 600k. Train ride was about 120yen 1-way, so I decided to bike to work.
Unless these guys make money off selling doujin at comiket as one of those wall circle, I really don't see how passion can keep them going.

>>149304848
Key animator test. If you pass they start letting you do key animation work. Most serious studios do this. Some people will pass it in less than 6 months.
If you want to do key but not put the effort to get better, you can go to any number of subcontract studios that will let you start straight as key.

The only reason she is not going into the negative is by eating half price bento food after 7pm.
Also god know where is staying. I am not sure where PA works office is but if it is anywhere near the nakano area that was in Shirobako, to get a place for 15k/month I am sure she is commuting at least 2hours a day to work.

>>149305284
That's how it's treated in general.
Studios will regularly openly recruit people (again, serious studios will require you to bring a portfolio to show you can draw a little).
However, there are people that career as inbetweeners. Recently there was some buzz over Shinkai's studio taking in two ex-ghibli inbetweeners with 20+ years of experience when other studios didn't have the vision to realize how skilled the two are.
Increasingly veterans are complaing about short douga experience periods creating animators that don't understand how to draw keys that look good after being traced, how to tell the inbetweener what they want, etc.

While PA Works is not very good about payment, most studios are worst than this.
Like GoHands is only paid inbetweener half of what PA Works paid.

Having worked in an industry with similar labor economics to animation (too many workers because people like the work), I can tell you that the only thing that will change conditions is for workers to quit and for young children to stop wanting to become animators. Everyone who can must refuse to work for low wages.

In my field the supply of trained labor dried up after about 20 years of abuse by the industry. For two decades young men who would normally enter the industry were told by their elders to find another career. That it wasn't worth it anymore.

Now, in the last 2 years salaries have doubled and companies are offering 10-25k USD bonuses to attract employees. Some have even started training employees in house (15-30k USD in training expenses per worker). It's all supply and demand.

I can't say I feel any sympathy for these people complaining about low wages to be honest. Nobody forces them to go into the industry and everyone warns them about how difficult and low paid it is. Yet they still to take the jobs. To come back after you realize you are never going to make it and say you were exploited is just ridiculous. Those are conditions they were perfectly willing to accept when they thought they had a shot at their dream and they were never forced to accept the conditions at all.

Nah these people are choosing to be animators, choosing those low wages.

The people who complain about being exploited in that industry they willingly chose to work in when it becomes clear they don't have what it takes to make it just come off as a bad case of sour grapes. When they still thought they had a shot they never would have complained and would have been happy for the opportunity to work for nothing to prove themselves.

Oh for sure, I never wanted sympathy. I bitched about compensation back then because it's what everyone did, but I had enough education and understanding of economics to know that it was just the labor market at work. It took a few years of low wages before I decided the "fun" part of the job wasn't worth it anymore and left. Lots of others I know left a few years before and after too.

Daniel Tosh is kinda a fuckstick, but his bit on "money can't buy happiness? Well it can buy a Waverunner. Have you ever seen someone frown on a Waverunner?" is pretty fucking accurate.

Because American 2D animators are trained in a completely different way where they emphasize a high number of frames per second and aren't trained in impact frames.

That's why shit like Avatar looks like everyone is ice-skating everywhere, they have no idea how to emphasize frames and slow the action at critical moments to give the feeling of impact.

They literally cannot animate as impressively as skilled Japanese animators even if they tried because a shitty animation style is ingrained in their training.

Relatively large supply of new workers willing to work for low wage is the only reason hand-drawn animation hasn't yet gone extinct in Japan like it did in the rest of the world. If for some reason it ever dries up the wages won't go much higher as it will damage the already pretty meager profits of the top brass. The industry would simply die and get replaced by 3DCG animation like in all other countries that don't have the luxury of cheap manual labor.

>>149307855
Not him, but you're thinking of a median wage. An average in this case is the total salary of everyone divided by the amount of people. Now think of the people who have the highest salaries. 0 yen/month (i.e. no salary, too low to even qualify as someone getting a wage) is considerably closer 100k yen than the highest salary, which is easily millions upon millions. Few earn that much, but if you think of the scale, it actually has a considerable impact. In a group of 10 where 9 people earn 0 yen/month and 1 person earns 1 million yen/month, the average will be 100k. When measuring average salaries, it's always higher than what most people earn.

Just thought you should know this. You should be sceptical of statistics in general as it's easy to manipulate if you want to and easy to misinterpret if you don't pay too much attention.

By all means, if they want to organize and coordinate the price they want to offer their services, then there's nothing stopping them. Even if there are anti-union efforts in place, there is no way to stop people from privately deciding not to work for under a certain amount of money.

that's not how net income calculation works though. purchasing new plots of land falls under capital expenditures which aren't deducted from revenue to arrive at net income.

I kinda agree with western animation not having weight and impact to it, it tends to look so floaty and linear, even back in the golden era this was an issue. The only real advantage western animation has over Japanese is the fluidity though that's not because of skill but budget.

Avatar was mostly made in Korea with some scenes in Japan as well, though. It definitely didn't suffer from this.

In one case, damage is done (which is unrelated to what was written)
In the other case, depending on what was said, it could even be a praise and image boost for the company if it's known that they pay well.
The only possibly problematic thing here is a breach of contract.

The point of the example is the writing itself, however. Specifically, implications created by the writing. People will draw all sorts of conclusions regardless of content or creator, if things are left to their imagination. For the purpose of the example, vandalism could be replaced with any kind of visible, public, PR attack.

The same applies here. Even if she wasn't being accusatory, because of how politicized the subject matter is, creating unnecessary scrutiny on the subject could also be viewed as irresponsibility by the employee. Most employers will also have some generalized expectations placed upon the employee (IE "don't act in a way that gives the company a bad name") to invoke in cases like these as well.

No.
Any kind of widespread attention for a unfair situation is desired, always, esp. when it comes to wages and workers' rights. It informs other workers across different companies that they are not alone or that their fellow colleague might be experiencing unfair exploitation. When it gets to the media, the public is informed so they can make their own choices with their wallets (or whatever form of detraction possible). Having the attention of the public is the first step for requesting some sort of mediation by government agencies or the parliamentary powers if needed.
Yes, it's usually for the better if it's some sort of well-documented journalism, but it's not a fucking requirement.
What you fail to realize with all that "hush hush" is that you are being functional to the interests of the companies, i.e., those who may or may not be exploiting their work force.

Keeping dirty secrets under the rag is Business management 101. So again, congrats on being functional to the slave drivers, dear slave.

But it's true, the top 1% love it when unions don't do their job or union membership decrease because it makes them richer.

And wage distribution is not what we are talking about here, anon, it's the wage distribution in the Japanese animation industry specifically. Passion fuels the work of these animators, to the point where they are treated unethically.

Yes. If you read the PA Works FAQ page on the recruitment page of their website you'll see that they're very clear about "you only get three chances to get promoted out of inbetweener work" (1/year), and what the requirements for that are. This Pokke person wasn't cutting it and was told she should find other work, but PA Works was letting her stay on staff/in the (newly built, nice*) PA Works dorms to do grunt work if she wanted.

That's not to say animators in Japan aren't way underpaid for the work they do, but the situation isn't nearly as dire as this one asshole was trying to make it out to be (which is why she was fired and deleted her twitter).

*Apparently they built a new one recently with help from a local government grant. There are pictures online, it's pretty nice as far as Japanese apartments and such go.

So if you make it to three years as an inbetweener without moving up to key animation, they start charging you 6000 yen a month to use your desk. It’s like they’re silently trying to say, “Get out of here. You don’t have the talent for this work.” Like holy shit. I’ve been working here for three years for peanuts and THAT’S how you treat me? I’m starting to seriously hate this place.

Third year inbetweening and I’m paying the studio 6k a month to use my desk, lmao

We’re not even full employees! But we’re being ALLOWED to use a desk at the studio’s office! They don’t HAVE to let us! But they do! I’m thrilled! They’re letting me work again today! Thank god for the studio!!!!!! Praise the great studio!!!!!

Just thinking about the people who came before me makes me sick. How they must have felt, being in their third year and going to take the key animator test. How they must have felt doing this work every single day…

O great and wonderful studio! Ahh, please do not do this to us! Please do not take any more of our paltry income away! We will die without that money!! O studio!!! Have pity on us, great studio!! We’re working harder than anyone!! So please, show us some mercy, O great and wonderful studio!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, I’m not a fucking janitor?? Why don’t you hire some actual janitorial services?? And if you can’t afford that, don’t make your fucking staff (not that I’m even an employee) do it.

I ran into someone who joined around the same time as me on the bus home, and we spent the whole ride back complaining about work together.

“I feel awful, because I’m the only one complaining,” she said. “Everyone else just works and keeps their mouth shut, even though we’re all treated like crap.”

It was great to find someone who felt the same way as me.

This place is seriously fucked up, and everyone else needs to realize that, like right now.

See, this is what happens when you have a welfare system running your country. All that high taxes to pay only ends up biting you in the ass later on because you're forced to pay for the habits of the trash of society such as the poor, criminals, welfare queens such as neets, and old fags. But noooo, Japan has this retarded morality thaugh to them by the Jews to not kill off the trash of society because "they're people" or some shit. How can anyone call those trash of society people when they lack things that make a human a human such as honor, integrity, virtues.

And that is why even animators who usually would be fine with their salary are now hitting the levels of poorfags.

Kyoani has a strict no sleeping at your desk policy, everyone goes home normally at 7pm and the latest people stay is around 10pm during "crunch" time. Some people do take their work home with them though, Yamada and Takemoto once did an overnight sakuga at his house.

Yamada also complained that she cant sleep at her desk like they do in anime.
>>
>>149328020
Single payer isn't "welfare" you doofus, it's just a method through which health insurance is purchased. Even people with zero income are still required to pay for their insurance, the rates just scale, so their premium is like 10$ a month or something.

Even with that, the insurance only covers 70% of costs, the patient must pay the remaining 30% (though you can buy private insurance that supplements the national insurance and covers more).

Just because they have single payer doesn't mean everyone gets free health care or anything.

ah yeah that sounds right, sorry my heads not in it today for remembering this stuff. Takemoto and Yamada do have a student teacher relationship though.

Also this is the Kyoani stuff

Asking what her typical day was like, the blunt (and inadvertently hilarious) answer was: she gets in at 0930, works, has an hour for lunch, works, then leaves at 1830. This of course was a leader for the question as to whether KyoAni indulges in crunch time, or "killer weeks", which Jonathan explained was almost a policy for studios in Tokyo, with the women and married staff allowed to catch the last train home, while the single men were expected to work through the night.

Naoko responded by saying that image of sleeping at your desk was so cool! But KyoAni was nothing like that and sometimes worked slightly longer hours but on the whole not. There was the unspoken question as to whether this was simply the company voice but it's certainly hard to fault the studio for its continuously superb quality of output, a question an audience member would follow up on later.

We're talking about a woman's salary and work condition. How is it not some how /pol/? The fact that she even had to pay for a desk because she sucked ass is some welfare state shit. The studio should have just said she sucked ass and that would be the end of it, but Japan hates free speech so they have to use leftist tactics such being "passive aggressive".

Japan being full of betas and nu males isn't a meme.

I don't agree with any of your social stuff, but I agree with Anno and Miyazaki in that letting otaku who only seem to have interest in anime and maybe RPG's take over the industry was a bad idea. It's encouraging the biz to become a big autistic navelgazing circlejerk.

Agree, people who love the industry will do the hard work, because they love it. But you can see the quality dropping because there are no standards, and the average person thinks they can just get into anime and be like whoa dude.

It's not just anime industry you see this but all other kinds of medium such as video games. You can see what happens when people who don't love what they're doing get into video games such as the devs of Mafia III. That game is such a pile of shit and no I'm not just talking about their black agenda. The game looks like it came out of 2001, it isn't optimized for pc, the game is piss easy, countless bugs, and to add to that Mafia II a game that came out a few years ago is better than Mafia III.

People in any industry are just doing the bare minimum and letting in people who don't care about the subject in and worse of all trying to plug in their social/political agendas.

>>149328651
I told you before; Japan is a welfare state. Animators would be getting paid well and living in decent conditions if they weren't forced to keep paying for welfare programs.
>>
>>149312542
A big part of it is also because there's much more animation in Japan in general; for example, few shows get home video releases in the west, with digital nowadays making many more available from the past ten years that a few decades combined. Almost every show in Japan gets a home video release, and they're sometimes considered the "main" way to view a show.

That's literally the whole point of talent-driven industries though. Imagine how many inadequate chumps would end up in those fields if it they were promised a safety net on top of having an engaging profession.
Nurtue the capable minority, and reject the talentless majority. Leaving them to slave their life away at nine to five jobs with the rest of the world.

Only those who are willing to risk deseve reaping the rewards.

The problem is that the niche of japanese animation is its low cost of production for relatively high quality

If wages go up significantly, anime becomes less affordable to produce.

That is, actually, exactly what happened to the north american animation industry. When making decent quality production is no longer affordable due to the labour costs, the industry adapts and looks at new, low-skill methods of production with naturally lower labour expenses: Flash and CGI.

Well-paid animators will be the death of anime. It's already a financially precarious industry, even with its production being dirt cheap.

That's how they get away with this shit.

Don't forget about "doing more live action shows" and "outsourcing the animation to Korea"

The real problem here is that animation is a difficult market. Even the companies that do really high quality often end bankrupt due to lack of demand, average adults dissing the medium as for kids. 3D animation doesn't have that stigma for some reason.

Fuck that, if people are already complaining about anime being the same tropes over and over. Higher budgets are only going to make production committees even MORE risk averse than they currently are.

anyone who becomes an animator to "make money" and not just for the passion of it is in the wrong field. The worst part about it is she doesnt want to improve her position by increasing her skill level through becoming a key animator, she just wants to get paid more.

People don't really care. Or there aren't enough of them.

No it's not, it's actually harder to fire employees for shit in Japan than most developed countries. To the point companies will just keep someone on payroll and not give them any work to do, and just tell them to go sit in the corner all day.

Thing is, she wasn't an employee, she was a contractor; the same classification as your accountant, plumber, lawyer, etc. She had literally no legal protections at all against being fired, in the same way that plumber you hired to fix your leaky sink can't sue you for saying "okay I think you did a bad job last time so I'm going with a different plumber this time sorry".
>>
>>149335857
Addendum: she almost certainly doesn't meet the criteria for being classified as a contractor, so that would be ruled illegal if she fought it in court, but lol if you think that will happen.
>>
>>149304295
>she was doing fine
hahahaha no. I live in Japan and my part time job gives me 120k yen every month and it's just arranging a bunch of handheld fans. Animators need to earn more considering their job is pretty hard.
>>
>standing up for greedy companies/corporations instead of the poor actual human beans
>>
>>149313056
That's because they're independent contractors renting out space.

I'm not going to profess much knowledge in how the Japanese animation industry works, but I would think the animators don't get to pick and choose assignments.

In the US that would be a gross violation of labor law, but the Japanese hate their workforce, so it's probably perfectly legal over there.
>>
>>149336496
>but the Japanese hate their workforce
As opposed to the good old US of A, right?
Not like the companies encourage some insane competition while trying to exploit their mid or low tier employees as much as possible, paid vacations are a joke, maternity and paternity leaves are unpaid, CEO and corporate in general is some retarded economic elite by default, and that any discussion on minimum wage could trigger a new civil war, etc, etc.
Your labor laws may be laws, but they are stupid.
>>
>>149336687
>As opposed to the good old US of A, right?
Nah, most states do too, even if they ostensibly have "rights".

Japan's economy would probably be better off if they had hard limits on overtime and more benefits like Germany instead of letting their companies shit on their workers and horde cash.

Partly this.
National Pension is 16,260 a month unless you apply and get an exemption.
And it doesn't pay through the company, so that is a bill separate to what you see on this animators income statement.

This.

Supply and demand. People like to draw and there's not a high demand for it; low wages.
>>
>>149336943
To make 3DCG you need an education and computer knowledge. If you pay 3D animators little they will run away because there are plenty of fields where they can apply their skills.
Meanwhile traditional animation requires only paper, pencils and manual labor that can hardly be applied anywhere else. Not to mention the huge amount of people willing to draw.
>>
>>149337048
>To make 3DCG you need an education and computer knowledge.
Not really. The concepts are exceedingly simple for the people who are just doing animation or modelling. It's mostly practice to git gud. The important part is that inbetweens are automatic, so the job of inbetweener literally doesn't exist.
>>
>>149336995
National pension as in some sort of pension for social programs that includes retirement pension? About a 10-15%? That's hardly a lot.
>>
>>149327103
And this is where china will change things maybe.
>>
>>149337225
Just retirement. And it is fixed 16,260/mth unless you get an exemption. So the month she earned less than 2000 after company deductions she still would have had to play the 16,260yen pension bill.
>>
>>149337363
Yes, for the worse.
>>
>>149337391
Yeah it's kind of a paradox. the one nation that could change things for the better will probably follow suit with the japanese studio ethos at the end of the day.

Plus china might try and attract talent over there, thus causing more of a strain on jp side with their ever increasing number of shows per season.

wrong

makes the production commitee earn less possibly

anime studio are contract worker unless they invest their own funds to earn commission through sales.

>>149337553
not that much cheaper, I was going to apply to a chinese anime studio.. But it's relative to their economies.

>Why would they "change for the better"? This is how the country got rich.

for anime is not mainly about producing cheaply, it's about mainly about selling to lots of stream to maximize visibility to earn revenue. that's how these chink studios are accelerating in growth in a crazy rate. Though japan is also ramming up their output as well.

right now that can and can't pay like kyoani if they wanted not needed but soon their studio will earn more than average in the future.

You can take this as a grain of salt. I dont know how far tencent and others want to push this chinese animation wave. I'm gonna go animate.

>>149337373
The exemption is easy to get, especially for younger people, and there's no actual penalty for just not paying it anyway (aside from not being able to collect your pension when you hit retirement age), so she probably is not paying it.

>>149336743
Japan actually has pretty decent labor laws, they just have extremely weak enforcement mechanisms so they are basically ignored, or circumvented by hiring people as contractors instead of employees (which is itself illegal in most cases, but again unenforced in nearly all cases).

Abe&co. were pushing for a hard limit on overtime, but there was a lot of blowback because everyone knew all it would mean is overtime past the limit would just become unpaid/off the record, so it'd just make things worse in a lot of places. Not sure where that proposal went, haven't heard anything about it lately.

Then there's those companies that say "we'll pay you 300k/month salary", but it turns out 100k of that is "40 hours of expected overtime", so your first 40 hours of overtime each month are effectively unpaid. I thought that one was pretty clever.
>>
>>149337553
The same reason any country "changes for the better" once they've hit a certain level of development. As the country gets richer wages rise, and eventually they rise high enough that they're no longer competitive with less developed countries. You already see this happening with low-tier factories like t-shirt production moving out of China to countries like Bangladesh.

Ideally the next step is transitioning into a domestic demand driven service economy, but a lot of countries fall into the middle income trap and just stagnate, which is probably what will happen in China barring a tragedy or a miracle.
