CATDOLL: Japanese animation director Mamoru Oshii: There are no professional talents to make animation together

Mamoru Oshii, a senior Japanese animation director, once again announced at a symposium why he no longer makes animations: "There are too few professionals who can create together." Why did he say that?

I believe that even if some of my own anime fans have not seen them, they have at least heard of well-known works such as "Urusei Yatsura", "Patlabor" and "Ghost in the Shell". They are all directed and produced by Mamoru Oshii. Mamoru Oshii's ability can be said to be unique in the industry. And it has been recognized by the industry. At a recent symposium with Mamoru Oshii, Oshii explained why he did not make animations. "At present, the number of people in the country who can complete this kind of high-precision work is probably less than 5% of the entire industry. Today's young people are self-centered, and the biggest reason why I no longer make animations is that there are no people who can work hard with me. From an overall perspective, such professionals have gradually become fewer."

Regarding his remarks, many Japanese netizens also rushed to comment, "This is how the industry is now. I heard that many people who have only watched a few new shows are also making animations. What can they produce?" "There are indeed not many people who can reach the level of Mamoru Oshii." But some people also think: "As a person who has left behind countless masterpieces, can you stop being negative all day long?" "There are still many good animations now."
