rip gainax, you ended in a weird convoluted way that pissed a lot of people off
Hideaki Anno just announced via the khara website that Gainax is officially dead and gone as a corporate entity as of December 10th: www.khara.co.jp/2025/12/11/2...
「株式会社ガイナックス」について
2025年12月10日の官報掲載にありますように、アニメーション制作スタジオだった「株式会社ガイナックス」の破産整理が終わり、法人として消滅し、その42年弱の歴史を終えました。 創設期から20年以上籍を置き、今日まで株主として関わっていたものとして誠に残念な最後ですが、静かに受け止めています。 まず、2019年、当時の代表取締役社長巻智博氏の逮捕を受け、弊社と共にガイナックス社の再建、後に整...

He looks like he wants to tell a ridiculously bad joke
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

After seeing some Very Hot Takes on here in the past 24 hours, some of the most critical professional advice I can give is to have a group chat of trusted friends/industry confidants where you can share your super hot takes and stuff in private, not necessarily in front of the whole industry. 😅

This is why I support freedom of expression.
Appropriately, it is the chaos of a system that supports free speech that gives rise to the grand process of democratic self-governance and the ideally upward arc of human progress and flourishing.

Hong Kong fire and Grenfell are just alike. Fire spreading through unsafe building materials installed due to penny-pinching, killing dozens. One difference: before the HK fire is even out three executives at contractors have been arrested, eight years after Grenfell no-one has been arrested.
