Pros
1. Centered around anime titles
2. You can see the original form of the anime materials
3. Humorous interactions with colleagues
1. The project production period is short, so rushing and working overtime are common (this is usually mentioned during the interview)
>Even with exceptional abilities, a short production period can still lead to precarious situations. If the department is not too understaffed, working some overtime can resolve things. If it is understaffed, the supervisor is crucial; in this case, the department supervisor happens not to do much of what their title entails. Only come if you can handle end-to-end work and are prepared to debug things yourself.
2. The supervisor is the ultimate authority and follows the principle of “just do it.”
>It is both an advantage and a disadvantage. They discard all concepts of project completion and never announce an endpoint or closure. The preferences of those above are absolute, and making changes while working is the norm. If the supervisor you encounter is professional, that is fine; but if they are technically stagnant and have no concept of production schedules, be prepared to spend time going around in circles.
3. Interference from negative emotions.
>If you cannot tolerate a supervisor burdened by seniority, emotional, shirking responsibility, or blaming and making things difficult over matters unrelated to work, you should probably not consider this. There is often an atmosphere of supervisors reporting on one another across departments, and verbal instructions without emails create many “Rashomon” situations. There are cases where taking leave or signing off on overtime depends on the supervisor’s mood. If, unfortunately, the people above choose to pretend to be asleep while awake, consider coming only if you have the confidence to be liked and the courage to be disliked.
4. How to avoid the situations in points 2 and 3: if the interviewer spends more time talking than asking you questions, and you notice them complaining or revealing biases, be alert.
5. The salary is relatively low compared with other companies in the same industry.
6. Not recommended for beginners looking to build experience. If you have found your direction and are working hard on the right track, and can withstand emotional and production-process pressure, the anime materials may be helpful.
7. In summary, the reasons for the poor rating: First, abusing one’s position to force unreasonable arguments and creating “Rashomon” situations is common. Second, under these conditions, there are more appealing options.
