Animation directors earn 300,000 yen an episode.
On average, it takes a month and a half from the time that drawings are received to the time that the episode is finished.
This means a monthly salary of 200,000 yen.
These directors are twenty-year veterans of the anime industry.

Working in the same place as these directors are inexperienced colorists, making 300,000 to 400,000 yen a month
