How would you fix anime going into 2026 if you had control over the anime industry
>>284663477I would move all animation back to Japan. Raise wages for animators. And then start an era of new ecchi battle harem anime.
Casual loli pantsu shots like the 80s/early 90s
Nabeshin as senior advisor for any "comedy".
>>284663510I like your thinking
>>284663477I would bring back shows that deserve more seasons, starting with Horizon S3, Ishura S3, Nageki Bourei S3 and Oda Nobuna S2.
>>284663477Tell leftoids to fuck off.
>>284663477ban western exports and switch to a model where Japan develops sophisticated MTL and sells direct to customers overseas
>>284663477Add more of my fetishes into shows
>>284663477Put a hard limit on the amount of any one single genre that can air in one season.
Rehire the old creatives to, if not take over for the new ones, train them how to do their jobs. Because for as much Miyazaki likes to bitch nobody was in a better position than he was to teach people better.
I would change nothing, except that all profits go to me. Although I am tempted to remove and censor any kind of loli fanservice with obnoxious blackbars (and the "uncensored" bd version would just show a different kind of censor bar), just to piss off /a/ for shit and giggles.
>>284663477Just add pantyshots to everything, everything will be fixed starting from there.
When looking for new assistant directors on projects I'd hire a bunch of animation nerds who love the art form enough to passionately hold controversial opinions that go against the generally agreed upon industry standard.
>>284663477All stories must end with the heroine visibly pregnant. Who is with me?!
Burn it to the grand. Anime was a mistake. It's nothing but trash.
>>284663510Anon, please, don't give me hope.
>>284666016I'm definitely not
I'd fire everyone that's involved in churning out "one season, one gimmick, no story resolution, no personality in the MC" isekai
>>284663477Could Takaichi return bikinis and pantyshots to anime? Censorship on anime was caused by Kishida and Ishiba since 2022. No anime was censored when Abe was PM. Takaichi will return bikinis and pantyshots again, right? >>284663555Takaichi will return them with bikinis. But was there censorship on anime during Abe's term? >>284665674>>284665585Takaichi Sanae will do this. No more nightmarish 4 years of Kishida and Ishiba. Takaichi will stop their censorship on anime and return bikinis to anime.
>>284665585>>284665674Yeah. Takaichi will do this. Kishida and Ishiba's censorship has fallen. Bikinis and pantyshots will return to anime. But does pic rel count as pantyshot?
anyone who suggests isekai gets instantly executed
>>284666652Takaichi stopping Kishiba censorship will reduce isekai naturally and will have more bikinis on modern/futuristic settings as Isekai slop cannot have bikini.
>>284666673But can futuristic isekai exist?
>>284666016This guy's got my vote
All funds diverted to 2D mecha animators
>>284666016This is a man I would be proud to support.
>>284663477Less battle shonen, less isekai, re-focus the medium into producing Japanese culture-centric, uniquely artistic, and Avant Garde anime. I'd also try and resurrect scifi anime, with room for some mecha titles to continue.
>>284663477i would bring back the high cut leotards and leg service from the 90s, and reduce the pig bodies trend for women currently.
More yuri, less everything.
>>284663477Eject foreign influence on the adaptation process and any resident mindrot that was ever ok.
>>284663555This. Letting hypocrite pedophiles sexualize children by hiding their underwear like some whore's crotchless panties is doing damage to Japan's moral fiber. Children are obviously not sexual. We must all stop being tricked into treating them that way and burn the liars to death in a pit.
>>284665503A plague of minor genre variants that nobody uses outside of ad copy.
>>284665674This would do some good. It wouldn't add any substance or even much entertainment value to the shows, but simply signaling that the fake shit for gaijin is being flushed would restore public faith in the medium. Plus as with anything mandatory, there'd be some good gags about how it's stupid after a couple of years.
>>284666779That bowling isekai was fucking stupid, but also more enjoyable than most things in season and it ticked most of your boxes.
>>284663477I would nuke the world market, crack down on Sueisha, ban vtumors, ban gacha, and put Ryogo Narita and Yoko Taro in charge of the anime committee.
>>284663510Make that your 2026 wish anon.
>>284665431>Horizon S3Incredibly based.

>>284663477First I'd make animation a viable line of work, with livable salaries for junior personnel and competitive salaries for directors of all specialties and tiers.That'd probably require cutting off some people. I'd have to make it a fast, competence-based process to minimize the impact on work culture.Then I'd go through the studios in random order and tell each one to make whatever they want, as long as it's significantly different from everything that all the studios I already visited decided to work on. Ideally I'd have a fund with which I'd bail out the really bad flops that would inevitably follow.Rinse and repeat for ~10 seasons -> anime is great again.
More sustainable long term projects instead of all this seasonal shit that they just shit out to forgotten as soon as it ends. Make shows that will be part of people's lives for a good while, part of their routine that sticks with them. Define your goddamn generation.
>>284665343Im still angry at gxp but youre my nigga.
>>284663477I'd keep the isekai level steady or higher, but make a rule that they have to put narou-kei WN/LN adaptations in particular on hold for a year, just to see which isekai they dig up and adapt for us instead (or maybe we get a bunch of originals, which would be fun too)I still want to see a Kanata Kara anime
>>284670670That would just stuff the industry with useless but well connected parasites and make all animation suck. We have seen this before. Artists must starve.
>>284663477>kekclover
>>284671096I used the word "livable" on purpose. It doesn't mean high. It means being able to afford a small apartment and food without parental help. From what I've heard, the industry is not there.Importantly, there must be a way up. Not very high, but to a respectable, "feed a family of five and maybe send one of the kids to uni" level.In passion-driven industries there's a level of junior personnel income below which you just can't keep good people. I've seen that happen. You want to operate above it, but not so far that the processes you described are dominant.
>>284663477make all anime isekai
>>284663477Ban pantyshots.Uncensor all nipples.
>>284670643>limit anime shows to maximum of 10 per season, globallyhow would you fill all those TV slots, then?
>>284671697The second one is necessary for humanity to evolve, so I guess it's worth it.
>>284671723Call in show that creates ai animation based on the callers' voice in real time, describing the stories they tell.
>>284671758so more wish fulfillment isekai, but with AI this time?
>>284671779Well you could screen calls to trim the fat somewhat.
