Honestly, when the word "anime" itself is a loanword that has a fairly different (and unsettled) meaning in English compared to the original Japanese meaning... it's not a surprise to me that Sakuga has had it happen(and those aren't the only examples, the amount of times I've seen arguments over whether series like Bloom Into You count as shounen or not is a lot. BiY is published in a shounen mag but...)

> we joke, but yeah this is totally the way it is heading, both with English loanwords in Japanese (so many common ones already) and Japanese loanwords in English when talking about anime-related terms. Just like when a French person hears how English speakers use or Spanish speakers hear how English speakers use or an English person hears how German speakers use . The march of altered-meaning-loanwords is inevitable, and niche hobbies like super-serious-anime-discussion are even more prone to it.

Yeah I agree, there's nothing wrong with it in general. Mainly I think because it is treated like a technical term though, which always have specific meanings, that we just have to be careful. Thanks for watching brother!

Interesting video sir. I am just discovering your channel and I am liking it so far. I had this notion before that Sakuga was a technical term referring to a sequence with a greater number of image per second, but I cannot find back the source of this. Thanks for the quality work.

@@TheCynicClinicThere's this amazing KZitem animator called Atokun, their description says that the dream to become a professional Sakuga animator. The way I basically interpreted it was that it was when enemies started animating on the ones instead of the twos, because the enemy is mostly animated on the twos. And there isn't anything wrong with that, it's a stylistic choice, and it's really useful to have a word to describe when the animation starts getting more frames to emphasize the action.

Despite being fond of your videos, I gotta admit that I am genuinely confused by how often you try to undermine the relevance of fiscal means. Even bubble animators/animation directors of the 80s and 90s specifically said that the primary reason why Japanese animators are forced to "find different means to animating motion" is because they simply don't have to money to ship live deer to their local studios. When someone like Takahata can ponder over - and make his animators reanimate - the correct way to "cut a melon" for the better part of a year, then that very much has to do with the studio's fiscal means. Whether it's the ability to hire better key animators, better inbetweeners, or simply allow either group to draw their respective cut. In production, time equals money. Granted, money can't make up for lack of talent, but that doesn't mean that something as commonly found as scheduling issues couldn't be bypassed by additional funds. It's both illogical and downright bordering the act of spreading misinformation to claim for budget to not matter. Because it does, and even those who animated Akira are going to very open about this. Hell, Kenishi Konichi, the animation director of Kaijuu no Kodomo just recently said that the reason his film has CGI in the first palce is because he didn't have the time/money to animate the film in full, not because they couldn't have it done without it.

I don't think you quite understand his point on budget. Budget is primarily used for hiring staff, providing materials, and paying outsourced cuts/coloring. Which does not have as much impact on the quality as time restrictions which are more indicative of incomplete or rushed in-betweens leading to choppy frames. He isn't undermining anyone other than prescriptivists who attribute all the issues experienced in production to ONLY budget. Also saying that some animator's aren't as talented is rather mean spirited. They're doing their best with how little they're paid to begin with to animate these stories you enjoy.

To quote VETERAN Japanese Animator Naotoshi Shida of Toei Animation "Budget and Quality are not linked, but if the Budget is too low the staff won't gather." Also Takahata wastes money on production all the time and will never hit deadlines, never properly explain how he wants cuts to be , not finish storyboards... that is why his productions are so expensive those factors do not effect the actual quality animation process unless you mean negatively

I don't necessarily disagree with you, but as some other fine gentleman have said in this thread, I dislike the idea that these "different means" are inferior to the full animation. I find animetism and limited animation tricks far more interesting and creative at times. The main reason I hate 'budget' as a term is that 1. It limits vocabulary when discussing animation and 2. It also creates a space where only those with high resources can make "good animation", which leaves everything to the traditional studio system which is yabai

Sakuga has no set in stone definition. Sakugabooru was initially a catalogue of the best cuts in japanese animation, but it now includes global animation, as well as less good cuts. Some uploads are for the purpose of archiving everything an animator has ever done, rather than that one cut being good. It's more of a vibe than anything. That's why there's also twitter accounts for experimental, and upa style animation as well as the big anime fight scene ones.

作画 means production of pictures, motions, or drawing-in Japanese. Sakuga means a burst of good animation-in English. Both different words, one is a loan word from Japanese, and the other is a 国語言葉。 A good example of this happening in Japanese is the word ビッチ or "bicchi", which comes from the word "bitch" in English but it means slut instead of bitch. Would you say that Japanese people are using the word wrong? I like to think of that particular word as a loan word with its own meaning instead.
