CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it’s part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions
if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators
THEY ARE TRYING!!!!! SIGN THE PETITION TO GET THE DISNEY ANIMATORS’ UNION RECOGNIZED
this petition is from IATSE (union), btw! it actually has credibility, unlike most change.org/etc petitions! please sign it!!

So… MAPPA says that Yuri on Ice was successful but the amount of money they got from the project was insignificant.
The math is not mathing. You and your partners quickly committed to an internationally released movie because of the potential for profit. The DVD/Blu-Ray sales were through the roof (meanwhile, you talk about Chainsaw Man underperforming in that area).
You won’t comment on Yuri on Ice for years, and now you are trying to diminish its importance to your studio? When it put you on the map? Okay.
What you guys seem to not understand is that MAPPA really doesn’t own the rights to Yuri!!! on ICE.
Otsuka even says it in this very interview… The way the industry is constructed makes it so that all the money goes to the actual IP holders, the production committee, and the studio gets only a very small share, because they are legally not entitled to get more.
That’s why they made Chainsaw man the way they did… without the production committee - to have control over it and over the money.
Yuri!!! has a production committee and the trademark is in Avex Pictures’ hands. Every YoI merch has Avex’ logo on it. Naturally, this is were the money goes.
Here’s publicly available info on Jp patents and trademarks. Search for “ユーリ!!!on ICE”.
We all understand that. We know it is not solely the studio (in this case, Mappa) that profits from anime. Forgive me for not putting the disclaimer in the original post.
Yuri on Ice was an extremely successful anime - top 10 of all time in Blu-ray/DVD sales. Mappa used to sing its praises. It paved the way for their current state.
They would not have committed so quickly to a movie (much less an intentional release) if the franchise did not have immense profit potential for them. After years of no updates, we get this comment that seems to write the entire thing off. Of course we are upset.
But if you read the whole interview it’s quite clear that he doesn’t try to write the success off. He only says that even though it was a big hit, they couldn’t get a fair share of profit, because this is how the industry works and it’s very much legal…:
“Otsuka: For example, "Yuri!!! on ICE” which our studio produced can be described as a big success, but the amount of money that we got was very little when compared with the scale of that success. I think that it’s also the studio responsibility, because we have agree for it to be like that, and I started to think about how to make it so that we are able to do more things on our own. You can’t control it, if the work you are producing is going to be a big success or not, so I thought that if we won’t be able to use the few chances [successful titles] that we have, we won’t grow as a company.“
What do you expect MAPPA to do in YoI’s case? Illegally use the trademark that isn’t theirs and take the money? Or not talk about how unfair the situation is, that they barely have the money to pay the animators, and the higher-ups get even richer thanks to their hard work?
I really understand being upset with the situation with IceAdo (I’m too), but I just can’t understand what do you want them to do with it? Because if you look at it objectively, they can’t control this IP, as it isn’t theirs - and this is exactly what Otsuka is talking about in this interview,
I think the hope is MAPPA will convince Avex that the movie will mean big bucks for the higher-ups, even with a bigger cut to the studio than they got for the series. I think the goal is MAPPA will say the movie is or isn’t still happening, and if it is then when, and if it’s not then why not.
And what I personally expect after this interview is, it isn’t happening. Partly because it’s got a Russian lead and Russia is currently trying to conquer Ukraine, and originally because MAPPA wants and ought to get a bigger cut of the income for the movie than they got for the series, and Avex would rather get a bigger percentage of nothing than a smaller percentage of lots.
But I suspect either Avex won’t let MAPPA say that, or MAPPA hasn’t given up hope either and is therefore reluctant to discuss anything that might annoy Avex too much.
I really like the tag that you’ve used - "support the arts, pay the artists” - because this is exactly what Otsuka is talking about in this interview, and yet, people in the YoI fandom somehow turned that into another reason to hate him and MAPPA (I mean, the reaction to this interview on twitter…). He simply said that they needed to change the way they make their animes to get a fair share of the profit - people in the fandom really think that this is a good reason to hate him and that something that is a well-know fact about the anime industry is “gaslighting”? (I bet that most just didn’t read that interview and still decided to join the dogpile.)
And as you’ve mention, possibly there is some tension between MAPPA and Avex at the moment, as Otsuka decided to use YoI as an example of the production committee system being so unfair to the studio, that they started to think about making animes on their own… And he talks about 2018, the year they were working on… IceAdo.
All in all, making the fandom hate the studio even more by spreading misleading info won’t help IceAdo, in my opinion. Twisting everything to make MAPPA the villain, because they dared to mention YoI can easily have the opposite effect… That’s why I reacted to the first post 😑
