Hiroto Nagata, an animator at Shaft, has revealed the extreme pressure he faces at work, causing concerns among fans.
In the now-deleted tweet, Nagata revealed the intense pressure he faces in his job, expressing that he has been brought to tears while working due to fears of being erased from the industry if he failed to meet deadlines.
The distress stemmed from the warning issued to him by the production team that if he doesn’t do his work well then he’ll be blacklisted from the industry.
“The production team warned, ‘If this doesn’t go well, you’ll be erased from the industry.’ So, I tell myself, ‘I have to do my best, or else I’ll be erased,’ and I work while crying. I want to say, ‘If you hadn’t thrown another job at me at the last minute, we wouldn’t be in this situation.

Mubi’s retrospective Takeshi Kitano: Destroy All Yakuza—featuring Violent Cop, Boiling Point, and Outrage Coda—is now showing in the United States, Canada, and select countries.Kubi.The presidential suite of the Grand Hotel Yerevan sits at the end of an amber-lit, carpeted corridor. The door comes fitted with its own CCTV camera, the concierge proudly gloats as an elevator slingshots us several floors above the ground, “so guests can feel safer.” Not that the current occupant has much to worry about. Guarding the suite on this exceptionally hot July afternoon is a small platoon of suit-clad Japanese men, looking equally stern and jet-lagged. The lucky few who get to pad in and out of the room do so in reverential silence, and even those outside speak in hushed voices, lest he should be disturbed. "He" is somewhere in the suite right now, and his name is Takeshi Kitano.
