Thanks Mappa!
A true artist suffers for his craft.
>i spent $1 per day to feed his family while working on this film.
Did it also take 12 years to make?
>>149528777
100 yen for 4 people!!
Now I love this movie even more.
My computer is made by child labour sweatshop in china
My car is fueled by resources from bloody invasion in middle east
My food is made by animal that lives only for the purpose to be killed and genetically modified crops that fucked over traditional farmer
I don't think I should feels any different if my entertainment comes from hungry and slept ridden animator.

Good for him.
so did his family die or what? you can't live on that
>>149529525
You can in Japan
>>149529525
ramen noodles every fucking day nigga
You can get some badass instant soba noddles at a Don Quixote just for 100yen.
But feeding a whole family with just 1$ sounds like bullshit.
No movie is worth that, nigga, feed your kids.

Maybe he wanted them to know what war time economy really felt like.

Ok, but don't bring the family into it.
He should cut off their arm while he's at it
And have them be raped
>>149529085
No, just 7.

It's 100 per meal. Reading the actual article is too much trouble for OP.
That's not terribly surprising, but pretty sad. I doubt the film is going to be a big success either.
