Hell, there're even some notable female hentai artists. These idiots really need to stop acting like female representation is a thing that needs to be pushed, because it isn't, far from it. All they're really doing is pissing people off by making shitty products that were made by horribly unqualified people only hired due to affirmative action, to say nothing of the dumbass, hateful comments they make on social media that are oftentimes misandrist (and ironically misogynist, given how much they infantalize and degrade the women they claim to be helping by acting like they're incapable of just doing this shit on their own merits).

@5Geass: Sometimes the most obvious ones are the most overlooked and forgotten. Yes, I'm a SM fan, and a pretty late-coming fan at that (I was in my late 20's going on 30 when Sailor Moon first got popular here in the U.S. in the mid-90's and have just gained interest in it over the last 6 months or so). I've watched several of these KZitem critiques and everyone seems to forget mentioning Sailor Moon like it never even existed. (At least in this critique it was briefly shown onscreen, if not specifically mentioned.) Never mind it was IMHO the #1 game-changer in opening up many doors for women and girls in the anime/manga genre. NOT TO MENTION that it was, and remains, good enough to hold a male following as well as the demographic of teenage girls it was aimed at. I'm sure there are plenty of even earlier examples to choose from. It just strikes me as how incredulously blatant and asinine these statements are of the so-called "writers" of HGS. It couldn't be more obvious they're trying to push an SJW agenda over promoting their actual show. What they're saying they're trying to do has, in fact, been done over and over again dozens of times in the anime (and manga) field over DECADES, and everyone with even a beginner-level degree of familiarity with anime and manga knows better. Their promo trailer actually comes off as a scam to me--why are they trying to sell themselves and not their product? Perhaps the quality of their product isn't up to par, or as many suspect--an outright ripoff of something that's already been done? Hmmmm... Also do some digging on some of the people connected with this sham and you'll find, as several others have already pointed out in the comments section, that they're misandristic, hate-filled people who are all agenda and no creativity--not the least of which is Kate Leth. When these names come out and one starts to follow the paper trail--and one doesn't have to dig real deep (Marvel's Hellcat, anyone?)--the more it looks like this whole HGS project is little more than an elaborate shell game.

Mhm. One of the first things they said in the trailer rubbed me the wrong way. The thing about the show having a lot of heart that they don't think any other studio can do anymore(paraphrasing). Like? How *absolutely condescending* can you be? I'm pretty sure they didn't mean it like that but? To outright say that just sounds incredibly rude. The moment I saw Kate Leth...oh lord. How quickly was her comic cancelled again? I just know it was pulled fairly quick.

Something that's interesting to me, by way of comparison, is that in all the interviews I've seen and read with Japanese anime and manga creators, they are almost always very humble and say things along the lines of, "I am not a very good at all, but I hope that the viewers will appreciate what I am trying to do in my work." Even Ghibli's Takahata Isao was known for saying how bad he thought he was at drawing. Humility is key to foregrounding the work itself, and keeping the creator's ego in the background.

I think that a lot of studios felt they had to make the switch to 3D animation because of costs and possibly they felt that it was more popular. What ever the case, they moved on not because they "forgot" but because they felt it was necessary. Crunchyroll is doing what they are doing on the backs of the anime industry and then talking smack about the very industry that they are taking advantage of. So not cool. >:(

If anything it implies that it can be done, it has been done, and there's nothing wrong with it. The problem only comes from when you get the impression I got from this High Guardian Spice trailer, that this team doesn't care about what they're writing or creating.

2D currently isn't all that profitable. It doesn't get butts in seats like 3D animation does, and considering it's more expensive to do 2D animation, it's not worth the risk. It's not like animation is completely lost in terms of 2D hand drawn animation. But it's a more niche market, the two switching places in the last 10-15 years. But you still need hand drawn storyboards. There are instances where 2D and 3D are blended together for a hybrid. I think these women don't know what the heck they're talking about.

I think what hurt them was pushing the diversity and the overconfidence that they are breaking new ground and going to save 2D animation from extinction. If they had produced a trailer that did more showcasing of the characters, the world, maybe showing small test animations or letting people hear the voice actors things wouldn't have become so volatile. I also think it might have been intentional. They kick the beehive, get stung and then more people who probably have zero interest in cartoons at all come to give them money and support because 'oh no they got attacked cos they are female!'

A really interesting perspective & most of us would agree but as someone stated, the marketing strategy for diversity is used as a cheap tool. They are like "look at us, how diverse & holy we are"... they are acting like they are heroes of the world & that any criticism is pure evil & taboo. Anime, manga & novels are the most diverse industry in terms of creators & content. We have gender bender, cross dressers, shounen-ai, yuri, yaoi & so on. The idea that they want to bring their crap to the anime industry is insulting & it is trying to force people into their agenda. It is true that creators are treated like crap... that's the biggest issue, not the diversity crap. Back to the point... if they really cared for their cause of diversity & inclusivity... they would create something that does not need to tell us how diverse it is, it will prove that itself. There was a manga I read where a boy wanted to be a girl or a woman... that was some good writing & good story... nothing was pushed but it was really good. The reason why we call them swjs is because they do not care for their cause, they do not want to convince or share their part of their story... they want to force others to accept everything they do without doubt or criticism, for them it is either you accept us or don't, if you don't you are nazi, hitler, sexist & so on. If they cared for their cause, they would have considered the best way to win people over. Instead of forcing them into stuff or making cheap & crappy quality stuff... then when it is bad... "look at the sinners, they dared to trample over our sacred cause". Load of crap, anime, manga & novels are about the content.. about quality & good story/characters.

If they were truly doing this out of any sense of doing OBJECTIVE good, they wouldn't release press statements crowing about how woke and progressive they are. That's the whole thing about doing good, you aren't supposed to expect a reward for it. Being a hero means doing what you feel is right no matter what it costs you. Wanting to do good shouldn't exempt you from criticism. If you put ANYTHING out there, you should be prepared for the possibility of rejection. A thick skin should be required. You cannot reap the rewards for success if you arent also prepared to deal with rejection. That's how life is. Look at William Shatner. He KNOWS what people think of his acting. He KNOWS he can't sing. HE DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT. This is a man who knows the risks of putting yourself out there and handles criticism like a champ. He still makes albums because he's having fun doing it.

Thank you for speaking the truth as a man i feel the type of people that are promoting the "anime" will just look at me as oh look another man hating on women what a surprise. truth anime is mostly watched by younger people in japan and promoting stuff like politics will just make the west look bad in their eyes for pushing this stuff on kids. as western fans we need to speak together about how this show is being presented or lack their of a show. we need to stand together reguardless of what or who we are or background we come from and be like stop. we want anime to be about anime and not anything else.

I agree, it's ok for a story to be subject to interpretation, it's not ok for it to deliberately pander to the audience, or shove an ideology down their throats. (cuz that worked incredibly well for Ghostbusters, Star Wars, and likely the new Terminator film) If the staff has to virtue signal throughout the trailer instead of letting the show sell itself, which is the whole point of a trailer. I'm going to make the prediction that High Guardian Spice will be poorly written garbage not worth anyone's time. It doesn't matter how pretty the visual are, if the story is trash, no one will watch it.

Good analysis. The one thing I don't think anyone has really touched upon is why they went this route given the backlash. It's hard to see how they think they can profit from this trailer unless they are sitting in a creative bubble that echo chambers this sort of thing is good and the way they should be approaching things.

I am not really an anime fan myself, but having been into science fiction and seeing what has happened to Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Star Wars the last several years, I know how this plays out. This so called "trailer" is setting up the reasons for failure, before even having a sample of the product. Here is a summary of the "trailer": "We are making a cartoon. We are mostly woman who look weird and are arrogant as hell making it easy as hell to not like us. When our product fails we, with Crunchyroll, will attack fans of anime and cry to media outlets about the right wing menbabies." I am not creative right now having just got out of bed, but I think you get the idea. The reason this "trailer" exist is guilt people into watching it, put HSG above any criticism, and make Crunchyroll think twice before cancelling it. If this show is bad then Crunchyroll will have to still keep in in production or face the fury of women's scorn.

Joseph Nichols agreed! But I think that the “Sony Ghostbusters” marketing plan has quickly lost its ability to intimidate. Too many companies have lost too much money following this path at this point. I mean a Star Wars movie didn’t even break even after they pulled this stunt on the prior one. Electronic Arts stock just tanked on the backlash caused by a similar campaign (“damn dirty sexist nerds! Of course WW2 was won by the actions of ass kicking female cyborg super soldiers! It’s bigoted to expect otherwise in an authentic WW2 simulation game!”)

Those who will take any criticisms as personal attacks generally don't care what criticism they get, toxic or not anyone who gets offended by words online seems to get offended all the time anyway.

It is impossible to judge a product of what you don't even have the most basic information. A trailer is there to SELL something, this has NOTHING to sell. Yeah, at most the political leaning behind the creators, but... that doesn't mean quality. I want to see either something quick and fun or a quality product. I don't have good feelings about this. But we shall see if it even gets noticed once it gets out in 2019. It probably will be forgotten by then. And get canceled after the first series for failing to be noticed. You don't have much time to draw attention to yourself and your product so you have to do it RIGHT the FIRST TIME. This trailer ... sold us nothing.

Even in japan animator are working in that condition I imagine this new animation group following the trend of pop up game company, in that there worker getting over paid and eventually will lose more money and go out of business If they using low quality animation put the rest of the money in storytelling or action. Steven universe and Rwby may have low quality art but it has some good fight scene.

I’m sure that the “all female” crew that we see are just the writers and designers. The actual task of animating it will be farmed out to a Korean sweat shop as in the norm.

And then, the show, while I hear they’re done putting it together, has had one 5-second spot in a collage-style trailer since this, and not even it’s own proper trailer since. There’s virtually nothing to have thoughts on, in that area.

What is unique about HGS?? The studio rarely talked about HGS; their main focus is the studio and how much diverse these women are (100% writing staff), even though majority of it is not diverse. raye doesn't care about his show at all and neither does the other people. the only thing they briefly mention in that trailer, he said; there were four girls going to magic school: Little Witch Academia RWBY Utena: Revoluntionary Girl Madoka Magica Soul Eater Not So ... original?? great job, guys.

When the authors are so desperate for the spotlight is a red flag. The first phrase is already very arrogant. I'm sorry but NO experienced artist would ever say their work has more heart than others because the more you get involved in the industry you get to see the passion of all people in different companies. This is so pretentious for a first-time job. Also, I'm sorry I still fail to see why is it relevant to know that they are all women (I'm a woman and an artist) please explain how is their studio special because of that. But to be fair, maybe Crunchyroll only wanted to hype the series using their social media influence instead of trying to promote it as a new unknown show.
