>>287955018what influencewhat similarities and themes and elements among these anime are derived from Shinbo and the influences of the SHAFT staff?
For years I thought HenZemi was actually a Shaft show
>>287955018I watched at least one anime where each had a hand on them, and the only one that reminds me of Shaft is Sakura Trick.
You missed the late Yasuhiro Takemoto. He was there for only a brief moment but the impact that Shinbo had upon him was very huge.

>>287955018I think even moreso than in the works of the people that used to work there, the influence of Shaft can be seen in the younger generation that grew up being influenced by their shows and are now entering the industry like that recent Kamiina Botan episode which pretty much entirely a send up to Shaft, specifically Oishi and Hidamari Sketch.
