Is this person who you’re talking about? (Archive) (Warning: The page has inflation fetish content)
The DeviantArt Horrors thread might be better if you want to talk about this person.

I was about to post and archive a recent comic Ruka Ito made about how she was "harassed" by japanese people and "Cartoon fans" who didn't liked We Baby Bears and how she met a girl that liked We Baby Bears and talks about how there's kids that appreciate things that inspire them
And just found out she locked her twitter account.
I don't know what happened to make this decision. Apparently something similar happened on his bluesky, but I'm not going to register on that shitty page to found out if she posted that comic there or not.

I don't see it on the Bluesky, it's just constant posting there.

I think she's actually ESL.
Still, though, it really should be a fucking requirement to have children in order to work on children's shows (preschool shows especially).

Oh that makes sense.
Yeah. They admitted their work on the show gave them access to children. Then depicts themselves surrounded by children and touching children who aren't their own. Creepy. Like going to a playground and having no reason to be there other than to watch kids.

So, what's the point of the comic? Telling us cartoons for toddlers ARE FOR TODDLERS?

I hate to sound like a broken record regarding this topic, but I just don't know how anyone could reasonably want to become an indie animator in [current year] as a profession. The RoI most definitely does NOT justify the huge time sink for animating (traditional/rigged/3D/etc.), not unless you're shilling the hell out of merchandise and sponsorships + you're sticking only to shorts to keep the content output at a steady pace. If you're thinking about getting more people on board, unless you've managed to turn a profit and expanding your brand and image, then good luck paying out of pocket since you're also a broke af "starving artist". The industry is already gay, retarded, and fucked as is, but it at least guarantees a decent paycheck (presumably, YMMV), I just don't see how someone would try and startup their own animation studio/company and output decent cartoons. The only 2 notable indie studios, Spindle Horse (behind Helluva and Hazbin) and GLITCH (Behind Digital Circus and others), the former is dealing with its own trashfire of management with a egotistical deathfat at the helm; while the latter, while having no major in-house dramas so far*, we don't know how long that good will will last til some callout post comes out saying the guys behind it are greedy bastards who mistreat their workers.
*I say no "major" but there's been a few minor events like replacing a VA without notifying them and others I'm probably forgetting.
That's another thing too, general drama and bullshittery, whether if it's true or not could definitely hamper the growth of a studio if everyone knows you're (allegedly) terrible to work with (then again Spindle Horse manages to still get workers despite the turnover rate, so this point might be moot).
The easy answer to all this is "just use AI bro," and while AI is certainly making good progress, it is still far, FAR from an actual practical "worker" that completes the tasks I want. Let's put it like this, if I can't treat it as my own personal nigger slave to make me Ghibli films 24/7, 365 days in the ways and directions that I want like a company would outsourcing it to some 3rd world SEAnigger nation, then I know I can't use AI for the purposes that I want yet.
That all said, if you're animating for fun or to personally hone your skills, that's great, but if you're in it for the money, you really have to play your cards right and see what are the steps necessary in order to grow your animation/entertainment business and how you can turn a profit. Because there's only so much content you can put out at a certain pace when you're a one-man team working with zero-dollars.

The progress that interests me the most is the application of ai to the production pipeline.
This here was made in March, and it looks pretty tight. They kindly made a companion video talking about the workflow, which all in all amounted to five minutes of very visually dense, motion heavy animation with lots of cadets movement. The staff on this project numbered in the dozens, not hundreds, and I don’t see the typical crush of Asian names who did the actual animating smashed in credits either.
Grafting this into a pipeline with auto tweening cuts shit down to size very nicely.
Where does this all end? My guess is eventually we’ll see a Webtoons esque crush of independently produced animated content. Is that ideal? Well… on many levels no, but I’d still say it’s preferable to the broken studio system we’ve been dealing with for decades.

On the side note, he’s not the only storyboard artist in the industry to have a kink. Kyle Morrison, one of the recent artists on SpongeBob SquarePants and the Patrick Star show, does a ton of fetish art on the side.

These are all from episodes Kyle Morrison helped storyboard on btw...

This is a reason I stopped watching much the 2018-Present Post Hillenburg era even the birthday special was lackluster and the movies after 2nd aren't as good.

I hate myself for having clicked on that link. That’s five seconds of my life I’ll never get back.
Anyway, he’s not the only creep working on SpongeBob these days. Vincent Waller is a known diaperfag.

I don't even know if the baby bears show can be catalogued or considered as such, because of both its light fantasy elements and how the show wasted chapters coping about Elon Musk

his case is kinda murky. iirc most of his diaper gags stayed in-scene (trump art aside). he and marc c. are still exec producers on spongebob, but idk how much they actually oversee w/ all the weird shit that’s slipped in over the past decade.
