Wonder if its the same working in japan animation. or worse...
Ask Mr. Kazunori Mizuno.

I've heard working in Japan in general is pretty shitty. The working hours are too long, the holidays too sparse, and their work ethic too tough. No wonder why their suicide rates are crazy high.

To get those suicidal tendencies ingrained at an early age?

I'll share my ignorance, and mention something about those reviews that confuses me.  Funimation is a dubbing company primarily, is it not?  And Crunchyroll is an anime streaming service.  Does Crunchyroll not stream animes that Funimation has dubbed?  Do they do their own dubs instead?

Any anime I follow has been miniscule and done through Blu-rays and seeing Your Name in theaters.  I've checked Crunchyroll, took about half an hour to check everything they have to offer, found 3 shows of interest, and they were ones I've already seen on t.v. before and not in a hurry to rewatch.  So I'm fairly out of the loop.

This isn't much of a surprise tbh; the American anime industry is real niche, contrary to what the internet would make you believe. Combine that with execs who don't give a shit, and you get Funimation. But yeah at least they're not Japan, who won't object to overworking out of politeness.

Crunchyroll is a streaming service which mostly releases anime (and some live-action) subtitled. Funimation dubs, streams and releases physical copies of anime. They're two separate companies  who recently formed a partnership where both jointly aquire shows;Crunchyroll releases shows subtitled and Funimation dubs them. So yeah,  some shows will appear on both, not all. Crunchy doesn't do dubs.

I'd suppose in that case Funimation has the better deal then, seeing from the casual perspective newcomers would prefer the dubbed experience than the trouble of a subtitled one.  At least in English, would be presumptuous of me to presume how other languages handle their dubs.  But especially if they're doing the same streaming deal as Crunchyroll, just more accessible.

On the flip side, it's considerably easier to provide subtitles and push out new shows and content straight out of Japan than going through the whole localization process, so I'd imagine Crunchyroll's roster of shows dwarfs Funimation's.  But then I guess it's a matter of perspective on quality vs quantity, because while I didn't find a whole lot worth watching, evidently more current fans do.

It's definitely much much harder to separate the cream from the slop when it comes to anime lately. There's an overabundance of options and it's starting to actually affect shows. Like the supposed reason that Attack on Titan season 2 is half as long as season 1 is because there simply weren't enough animators that were going to be able to work on it for another cour with how many shows are getting made these days.

that's pretty fun because funi subs the cream of the crop (popularity wise) shows and the really bad ones, lol.

he does not know how to draw, period, that's his charm.

well at least he is not like the mangaka form elfen lied, whose art keeps on becoming worse and worse the more expertise he gains. or the one who did mirai nikki, whose plots keep on becomign more nonsensical.

(it's fun reading/watching their works ion chronological because you feel like youa re ina  time machine or someshit because they become worse instead of improving)

maybe it is stress from pressure, and less motivation from boredom.
