ehh animators get paid shit right now...
Studios have to hire and fire people left and right purely because they cannot live off the salary that they get for drawing every scene
The market in anime has been collapsing significantly after torrenting/etc began. This is nothing like the music industry, where it still thrives even with illegal downloading.
just thought id say that, if you get the chance to buy stuff you should... Many people are going out of jobs, and the only people staying on time are those suffering from massive sleep deprivation with 12 hour shifts getting paid little to nothing
