One animator put it plainly: “You have no idea how frustrating it is to see press release after press release touting how much money our animated film made and how many nominations we got; then [the studio] turns to people who have worked here forever and says, ‘We don’t need you anymore.’” Heh.

Hollywood Can’t Survive Without Animation. So Why Won’t the Industry Respect It?

Animated films made billions in 2026 while Pixar and Netflix cut jobs. Inside animation's paradox and its long shut-out from the best picture race.

Unbelievably honored to announce that I am translating for Ikoku Nikki (with Inklore). I think I must be dreaming. Tomoko Yamashita’s word choices are delightful and carry so much weight. It’s a challenge I don’t take lightly, and I will do my absolute best to do this brilliant series justice.

Abstraction isn’t necessarily a 1:1 allegory for death by suicide so much as it’s like losing oneself in any kind of mental health spiral, including addiction. How everyone visits Jax and the other abstractions also reminds me of visiting a loved one in long-term care or inpatient treatment.

The air feels heavy — not just with humidity, but with memory. We remember Pulse. We remember the laughter, the music, the light that was stolen, and the love that refused to die. May we keep building a world where joy is never punished, and where every soul can dance without fear.
