⚠️🇨🇳 China has a subculture growing in popularity: cat torture.
One of the most popular content creators in this genre, who popularised the "cat in blender trend", has made over $700k.
He hasn't faced any criminal charges though, because China has no laws against animals abuse.
@_gabbacchio Not quite.
Shintani: “I'll correct it if it doesn't match the tone or director's needs; otherwise, it stays.”
Yamamuro: “Gotta make sure it stays on model while keeping the essence of the original and respecting time sheets as much as possible so the animation still shines.”
@AnimeAjay A few animators like Shintani's detail-starved designs for ease of animation. But his base designs are the weakest of all. His works can't compare to Nakatsuru, Kubota, and Yamamuro.
Exactly.
Shintani's production varies wildly in the same movie (as shown in the screenshots below). Not a good thing.

Yamamuro: “Gotta make sure it stays on model while keeping the essence of the characters and respecting time sheets as much as possible so the animation still shines.”
This and his work on DBS 131 are great showcases of Yamamuro's skills as AD: he understands the strengths of the artists he supervises and knows what to change and what not.
That quote just proves Shintani’s designs are easier, not better.
Top animators can elevate any design, and Shintani doesn’t even handle coloring/effects. The “polish” people praise isn’t from his designs. That’s not “evolution”; it’s simpler designs + direction being carried by animators.
Meanwhile, his models often simplify and distort proportions. Yamamuro’s (like these UI Goku cuts) keep clean anatomy, sharp structure, and consistent appeal while still animating well. Shintani's designs look like bad fan art compared to Yamamuro’s.

@AnimeAjay Shintani failed to correct distorted shapes. Also, this argument conveniently ignores a core issue: Shintani’s designs themselves. The problem isn’t just variation; it’s that his base designs often come off as distorted and less refined.
@AnimeAjay Compared to Yamamuro’s work which consistently maintains clean anatomy, balanced proportions, and a polished, attractive look, Shintani’s approach feels uneven and less appealing. So it’s not just “style variety”: it’s inconsistency + weaker foundational design. Yamamuro (left):
@AnimeAjay A movie constantly shifting styles doesn’t feel expressive; it feels inconsistent and poorly supervised. Strong direction means guiding individual expression within a unified standard, not abandoning that standard altogether. Shintani failed to correct bad proportions:
2/4
@AnimeAjay A director’s job isn’t to let everything go loose; it’s to ensure consistency, quality, and a cohesive visual identity across the entire film. Letting every animator “do their own thing” sounds nice in theory, but in practice it creates a fragmented product. 1/4

The Chinese game, live ring toss, is pure animal cruelty. 😡
People throw rings at a Goat in excitement. The prize is a goat.
The music is original. That also describes the nature of this event well. To them the well-being of animals is not important.
Animals are entertainment for people.

En promedio, tres caballos MUEREN cada día en los hipódromos de EE. UU. ¿Cuántos morirán el día del Derby? 💔 No apuestes, no lo veas ni asistas al Derby de Kentucky mientras los caballos sigan sufriendo.
🚨 JUSTICIA PARA NALA 🚨
Lo que le ocurrió a NALA no puede quedar en silencio.
Fue víctima de un acto de crueldad que nos rompe el alma y nos obliga a alzar la voz.
Este no es solo un caso más.
Es el reflejo de una realidad que debemos frenar unidos.
