I am down 9.6 pounds total, 2.2 pounds lower than last week How are you guys doing?

There's so many mysteries and undiscovered locations in hxh. In the recent chapters it's revealed that the entire world as they know it is just some small continents inside a giant lake. The the rest of the world is basically JUST land filled with insane and crazy dangerous mythical creatures. For reference every time they even try to land and explore more inward almost everyone on the exploration teams dies. Now the current arc is glowy eyes boy on a gigantic humungous preposterous large cruise ship with a social caste system as several princess factions try to assassinate each other for the throne in basically hxh game of thrones. Bro Gon hasn't done anything since the ant arc. I don't even think hxh has a story. Almost none of the arcs connect at all. It almost feels like we're still in pre-timeskip one piece where the characters are just going to random islands.

We're like 350 chapters in and still have no idea how Nen powers work. How do people make them??? We don't know shit about the spiders, where the frick is Hisoka, and on top of this even the main continents are like 80% unexplored. Half the show was the ant arc which took place in the middle of fricking no where.

If one piece ends he should just give hxh to Oda.

I felt like writing something, and I ended up with this whole thing, if you are aware of JJK s2 production problems you can just jump into the poll.

If you were not aware, the S2 Jujutsu Kaisen anime production have been causing a bit of an uproar. Now, terrible working conditions, crunch, insane deadlines, are all standard for soul sucking Japanese corporations. Studio mappa, responsible for JJK anime, has a bad reputation for many of those reasons, and this anime was not very different form others, with rumours about production issues circualting. Things escalated a (good) few days ago, when some people working on the show Xitted their grievances with the studio for all to see (bad translations ripped from a website):

>“Although it is unpleasant to be praised in the name of the company, I have to be grateful for the hard work and dedication of the company's production and filming staff. They are contributing immensely to the work despite the unavoidable circumstances.“

>“Bad news came in and I suddenly felt deflated. It's the most boring ending I could think of. Oh no, the festival is over. Okay, let's disband.“

>“When leaving the company, throw the card key into the company's trash bin.”

This article compiles it all, but is written kinda cringe.

As far as I'm aware it's something that rarely, or never happens. Japs normally keep everything behind closed door, so of course animators coming out and saying stuff like this quickly got a lot of traction. Not to mention the Xeets were quite dramatic claiming the production was more than ready to completely fall apart, with upcoming episodes not completed while the deadline was approaching.

Anitubers (Lame fricking losers) started doom posting about it, claiming that the production is dead, and :

And on MAL, where people are unhinged weirdos posting the most pompous bullshit known to man, the S2 debates were only abut one thing, animation.

Fight's whether the animation is the worst they have ever seen, or the best that will ever be made raged on endlessly. And with thinkers and analyzers like this, the Xeet drama thread includes a good variety of informed opinions.

With the deniers:

>are Twitter (oh sorry I mean X) threads enough to draw conclusions now

>darn a collective breakdown of 2 people on x 😩😩😩😩

>Yeah foreign twitter users would be the first to know about something as monumental as a anime studio walk out

The big brain problem solvers:

>Can someone remind me why cant they leave for a studio with healthier environment already instead of crying and complaining on twitter for the past half a year or so?

>f it's so bad, as we are lead to believe, maybe they should quit. I'm sure there are 1,000s of animators in Japan that would love to take their position. Complaining on social media seems weak and is probably going to get them nowhere, but im sure the MAPPA haters will eat this up

>Remember though, capitalism is good because making money is the most important thing. All of that socialist nonsense about improving working conditions and representing employees' interests is just lazy thinking cause young'uns don't wanna pick themselves up by the bootstraps!

And one user transcends reality comparing this to Sandshit:

>So, are so busy fanboying what a studio produce that you are going after the same animator that draw it. MAPPA fan seem to as brain-dead as Evangelical Christian supporting Zionism.

(Sadly his supreme take got deleted)

Also, with current production drama the ethical consumption question comes into play. Just kidding, it's another animation debate, but this time asking if people creating the product are treated like shit, how can we criticize it. You see, it's all highly intellectual:

>Completely agree with you on all the points I think you made (ngl I skimmed it, but I agreed heavily with what I read)

So, with all that, it's Poll time. Ep 18 (I think) is still supposed to be finished, but after that no one knows what will happen. What will be the coming episodes (19 to 20something) like:

Very good. - 4 votes

PowerPoint presentation. - 27 votes

Personally I hope they just release episodes with random cuts to raw storyboards. That would be peak anime.

Anyway, bye.

lots of sniffers over there

Is it accurate or are /a/utists being hyperbolic again? A bit too dark for this series isn't it?
