I've been wondering if we're starting to see the 'otakuisation' of the animation industry here in the west.
What I mean is that we're seeing people entering the industry who simply want to replicate their favourite shows/film.
This produces an intense similarity across the board in style and tone.
Hayao Miyazaki is famously incensed by the practice as he sees it as a decline of creativity and quality.
