I want to move away from using the term "Sakuga" as it often alienates people and can be misleading. There has been a bit of backlash against the Sakuga movement lately, and I'd like to think many people come to this thread to talk about the animation and visual aspect of anime, which is something that often gets overlooked elsewhere. It would be nice if we could get a wider appreciation of visuals in the anime fandom without being seen as elitists.

Talking to you is pointless

Enjoy your moe shows while Satoshi Kon's Dream Machine isn't getting much support nor money to continue the production.

Moe productions swimming in money, but the film of a great japanese animation pioneer has financial troubles. Why? Because no one cares about anime anymore.
R.I.P....I wish the great masters wouldn't be scared and talk about the problems of the industry. Oshii, Yuasa.....Miyazaki....what are they waiting for?

Some people really have no idea what's going on in the background.
Some still didn't realized why Imaishi left Gainax....some never asked why Kazuto Nakazawa's "Hells Angels" never released.

Please don't tell me that there are still many animes for everyone.
