>>287604566so this is why the movies look so good
>>287604566Comix Wave has been the anime studio with the best working conditions/pay for a long time now, it's not really a secret
>>287604586im sure them having the best art department in the entire industry has nothing to do with it
>>287604566so they're branching out into JAV production huh
>>287605104Gotta have both male and female massage therapists to avoid them lawsuits
>>287604566Is Shinkai naked under that towel???
>>287604566do japs get massaged with a towel?
>>287607058Would you let another man see you naked? That's homosexual
>>287604566I bet this is like those Google offices that are full of entertainment but nobody uses them because everybody else will look down on you for slacking off
>>287607268of course I would, everyone should be mirin my body

>>287604566Any announcements regarding his sci fi flick?
>>287607771Not really. Last we've seen was this partial storyboard he posted on X a month ago. He did say it's going to be announced this year though
>>287606822why else would you have a towel covering you?
>>287604566teeth to rival a brit
>>287607058What I learned from AV is that they wear a special thin garment.
>>287610525I've seen a lot AV where the guy or girl is just naked in the beginning too
>>287604566This reminded me that I should go for another massage. That shit felt better than orgasm.
>free massages/spa/sauna>good pay >paternity/maternity leavewhy do animators complain again?
>>287607275exactlythey just dangle it in front of you because (((they))) get personal enjoyment out of it
>>287612263Almost no animators work in-house for a big studio like that, they're all freelancers working from home
