It took a while, but I finally have my award for Best Translation for “The Otaku Love Connection”from the American Manga Awards!
Thank you to everyone involved! It really is an honor!
Hayao Miyazaki says the problem with young anime artists is that the only thing they study is anime.
The Studio Ghibli director told Roland Kelts his generation “studied French literature, we studied impressionism, we read Dostoevsky,” then created original work.
If all you watch is anime, he said, “you’re just regurgitating spinning wheels.”
Miyazaki later smiled and noted that old people always complain about the next generation.
