the quality of animation n.n

In this article it talks about the quality of animation over the years and the struggle to create something timeless and artistic with the time they're given. Not enough time is spent on the craft and animators spend too much time making sure the job gets done rather than making sure it looks nice. When the demand for more animated tv shows increased, the quality decreased because there wasn't enough time, they just had t get the job done and get paid. But audiences don't care much for added quality. They just care about delivery.

I most of this article is true, the quality of animation changes all the time depending on the demand for it. It's not the animators fault though, it takes a lot of time and dedication to make something that'll last a while. They should have included examples of this rushed kind of animation so we could get an idea of what it looks like. To me, the story matters a little more than the actual animation in a show. I did a research paper on Hayao Miyazaki for my english class and I learned a lot about him, he talks about the same thing in this article. It seems its the same in Japan for anime as well. Animators don't spend a lot of time making quality animation. But I hope people will understand animators more, it takes a while to make something and these aren't the kinds of things you can rush. People expect animation to always be there but they don't pay attention to hard work artists have to do.
