Honestly Shaft should just do porn
>>161294593
Yes.

They should be burned to the ground for making SAO.

They should hire Jyuhachi Minamizawa to direct some stuff, he'd fit their style perfectly. What happened to that guy, anyway?
true arthouse doesn't prioritize profit over expression. I don't think there are any arthouse studios, but there have been arthouse productions. kowarekake no orgel comes to mind, was produced by the author because he wanted it to be an anime.

They're pseuds.
>>161297964
Not even as a joke.

KyoAni is the only major studio with a remotely decent culture, and their work certainly looks very nice, but it's too conventional enough (and too profit-focused, though not to the extent of A-1) to be considered arthouse.
