    I love the idea of you doing interviews with different animators both professional and of internet fame. Wether it be foreign or in county animators as well. I'm excited to see who you'd be able to get. This is a great idea man

    Sheer brilliance here, you where very fortunate of meeting them.
    Also this quote is very amazing.
    "Receiving the influence of Japanese art, and then making anime in japan makes for a very narrow perspective. It's Constricting. Therefore, taking interesting things we view from other countries and putting it in our work, we make anime more interesting"
    -Hiroyuki Imaishi

  • @Ratload
    @Ratload 7 лет назад +275

    There's a real interesting dynamic on how many of these Japanese animators don't care about whether they enjoy their projects, but rather how it's received by others.

    • @narutos_ramen
      @narutos_ramen 7 лет назад +31

      Ratload Yeah, I thought so too! Since for cartoons in the US it's mostly the opposite.

    • @OrganicGreens
      @OrganicGreens 7 лет назад +7

      The creator of one piece seems very passionate

    • @candyexplosives_
      @candyexplosives_ 7 лет назад +11

      When your job is to create art for sale it's a part of your job to be able to distance yourself from your work to give your consumers what they want, otherwise you'll go out of business obviously.
      Like what was said in the interview- it's a half and half thing where you can take what inspires and drives you and add it to the mix but since the work is not made for you it is your job to transform that 'soul', if you will, into what you audiences are looking for.
      I don't understand why that would be surprising.

    • @Ratload
      @Ratload 7 лет назад +15

      I never said it was surprising but thanks for trying to patronize me lol. I just see a contrast to the more western mindset encouraging people to pursue passion projects.

    • @candyexplosives_
      @candyexplosives_ 7 лет назад +3

      I wasn't really trying to patronize so I'm sorry if it came out that way.
      When someone brings up a point and formulating it in a manner which gives off the impression that this is new territory to consider in relation to what they are used to I would just generally assume that they were surprised by the difference.
      If anything I think the west is too caught up in the "everyone is a unique snowflake"-kind of thinking.
      There is nothing wrong with passion projects if you have the budget for it, but if you are looking to produce for an audience for profit I do believe it's your duty to to put your own feelings second and at most see how you can rework your own experiences or inspirations into something made for the recieving party.
      If a person just wants to draw and create something for themselves without any care for how it's regarded by the viewer then that is best left outside the professional field or turning to crowdfunding for.

    You know, for a first ever interview, Arin really wasn't that bad. I mean you could see him struggling a bit with phrasing, but there's also a language barrier to keep in mind.
    All in all it was kinda cool to see a more grown up and professional Arin.

  • @ericlong5872

    This is huge.

    • @Zoot101
      @Zoot101 7 лет назад +12

      I just wish he had been better-prepared. He spent half the interview grilling them about every little detail of their life story, which is not as interesting as hearing them actually talk about animation. :(

    • @Zoot101
      @Zoot101 7 лет назад +23

      I agree that their background is important and I was happy to hear a lot of it. I just felt that Arin spent a bit too long prying out little details that don't really add to the overall picture, and making up little stories and being told "Well, it's not quite like that..."
      I'm grateful for this interview because these two guys truly are my heroes. It's just as Arin said himself at the start: it's not a perfect interview and there's plenty of stuff that could have been done better.

    • @ctimerun3693
      @ctimerun3693 7 лет назад +32

      It does feel like he's leading the questions a little, but it might be he needed to; their body language isn't exactly telegraphing openness...
      ... At this rate, they'll never be part of the club.

    • @kesselsol
      @kesselsol 7 лет назад +12

      I was at anime expo at a Trigger live panel. Yoshinari literally said: "You do not want to work for the japanese anime industry."
      Seriously, japanese anime industry is fucked up right now. Animators are sweat-shop workers.

The entire video created an educational and inspiring feeling while also being deeply entertaining and you throwing in your lovly personality. This has potential to be somthing really fun and also to get people to think a bit. Good job sir, good job indeed.

    I put off watching this until now because I thought that this wasnt the Egoraptor content I subbed for, but watching this interview I got to see a different side of Egoraptor and enjoyed this soso much. He was very professional and his questions and replys were very organic with his personality with the interviewees. I also enjoyed Hiroyuki Imaishi and Yoh Yoshinari a lot. Each are so different in their personalities but just as much enjoyable in their own ways. I hope you come back with more one day

    I was confused for a moment why Arin said they were his heroes and then I was like "oh yeah. He's an animator."
    Like, somehow I've mentally separated "Arin from Game Grumps" from his Egoraptor animations. I do this with Dan a lot too. I'm like "Wow, Dan can really sing" when he sings something on Grumps, and then I'm like "Oh yeah! He's THE LEAD SINGER of a band...specifically known for his amazing harmonies"

  • @the_echoYT
    @the_echoYT 7 лет назад +330

    Totally on-board with more interviews.
    Big thing that bothered me, though:
    I think delving into their personal backgrounds from the outset was maybe the wrong angle. Since they're there for Little Witch Academia, starting the interview with that work would have been better.
    You can tell, around the 15 minute mark, when you switch gears to career talk, they opened up a lot more. An interview is really just a conversation; don't probe where they aren't comfortable.
    Also, leading questions. You were *really* bad with these.
    You keep asking a broad question, and then offering up different ideas to answer that question. It kind of confuses what you're trying to ask, and with your cadence in this interview it gets pretty meandering and weird. Next time, keep the questions straightforward and to the point.

    • @kaiiboraka
      @kaiiboraka 7 лет назад +51

      Good ideas, very on point.
      I would like to point out though, that sort of thing simply comes with experience. It doesn't help that there's a language barrier here, and that he's talking to these two industry legends and is super humbled by them. So in trying to formulate questions on the fly, he's also trying not to stutter, and trying to be thought-provoking, and all these things... Shit's hard, yo!
      But he's learning and trying new things, and it's awesome, and we appreciate it.

    • @ElegeantFencer
      @ElegeantFencer 7 лет назад +24

      You could tell Arin was projecting alot of his own personal insecurities as an artist into his questions. You could tell he has so much respect for Yoshinari since Ysohinari seems to embody what Arin is striving to become as an artist. So you could tell why his questions got too meandering in this interview.

    • @dlivingstonmcpherson
      @dlivingstonmcpherson 7 лет назад +20

      This is a great example of constructive criticism done right. Thanks The_Echo! I concur he should've eased into the conversation with more artistry based questions.
      I always enjoy seeing Arin's sincerity and love for things (art, animation, game design). It's easy to forget Arin's more analytical side of his artistry when he's cracking poop jokes. I enjoyed his tack of getting the personal stories of these creators as it painted a portrait of their contrasting personalities and work ethics: Imaishi's childlike enjoyment of animation filling his work with joy, and Yoshinari's more technical commitment to hardwork (but enjoying the 'training' in developing his technique).

    I really loved Yoshinari's answer around 10:40 in as to where the inspiration and desire to make LWA came from, if not the desire to entertain.
    "It's more like... the technique. For example, drawing a clear line. There are people entertained by seeing that skill."  
    You understand me Yoshinari-sensei! Ugh, I love this man.

  • @Moodbone

    Honestly, I'd love it if you kept making interview videos like this. I'm not an animator myself, I don't even draw; but I love art and hearing animators speak about their craft and things that they're passionate about. Animation is something I have an immense amount of respect for so it's really great to me to be able to see something like this. I also really like this video specifically because these guys helped shape my childhood/teenage years with the things they've worked on so getting to hear them speak about their lives and inspirations was very cool.
    If you do happen to read this Arin, even if you don't decide to continue doing these interviews just know that this one video means a lot to me and I very much enjoyed it. Thanks, Arin!

I feel like you cut through the generic garbage most interviews consist of and really got into the meat of it, and I'm so glad you did because most interviewers seem too afraid to do the same. Thanks for this, and really good job!

      Missle Jordan it's just my preference:(What do you mean with try hard ?). They have really likeable characters (I like every one of the MC team), the artwork and music is top, the openings/endings are good (s2 opening killed it, it's one of my favorites), the voice actors are the best of newer franchises this season (except maybe youjo senki mc) and the pace-ing is great because it is not at all rushed. I like that there is always this love hate dynamic between the Girls and the mc. they do this just right because it's the only time it doesnt feel like harem for me and more like a adventure. the Girls like the mc but not in a romantic way which is a great Deal b/c it feels realistic. normally the female characters would blush or one after another fall in love... which is stupid because it ruins the end by default. well thats enough for now...

Explaining how a Japanese audience would prefer slower pace for atmosphere would explain why some of my friends weren't into a movie I was into and it did really well in Japan.

      Levii can I finish the TV series first before the movies? Or do they have to been seen first

      The first movie came out in 2013 and was a short film for a film festival, the second was made after a successful Indiegogo campaign. The series that started this year is a soft reboot, in that the characters and world are largely the same but the story is different. You don't need to see one before the other, but they are all worth seeing.

      Since Akko foudn the Shiny staff in Episode 1 before she even reached the school, but found it as a student in the movie, being suprised by it pretty much proofs that there are 2 timelines.
      Except they pull something with this amnesia potion later.
