So there's a bunch more episodes of this left? Is the final third of the series going to be Aoi trying to cope with being the only competent production manager left at MusAni?

I feel like Zuka's gonna get to voice the baby boar. Not even joking. It'll be a role at least, and it could help her get recognition if she shows up at promotional events afterwards.

Between no more Nozaki-kun and no more Shirobako I may have to give up on happy anime forever.

"Shirobako" - P.A. Works' Next Failure

P.A. Works has announced its latest upcoming anime, and it doesn’t look good – not that there’s any image out yet, but the series “Shirobako” is starting in two months, with a first PV due out at Comiket 86.
The website created for this latest original animation is all white, but everything that’s written on it screams Tari Tari and Glasslip. First, the show will start in October of this very year, which is not reassuring as only the creations of lowest quality air such a short time after their original announcement.
Furthermore, P.A. Works’ schedule is tight for this one. A first video look at what this strangely-named anime is about will be on show at the next Comiket, which is only a few days from now. And where there’s little time, there’s generally a small budget, and all that results in a very poor final work.
Shirobako being such an abstract name, any newcomer might believe the forthcoming discovery of the show holds some kind of interest – yet this is P.A. Works we’re talking about, and knowing them, it’ll probably just be another angsty adolescent series… with lots of romance and annoying characters, who only take the most incomprehensibly moronic actions.
There’s no way this is looking good, and it’s impossible to think of any potential positives here as it seems like a work thought up at the very last minute under the pressure of the financial obligation to get something out for the fall season.
P.A. Works are definitely one of the more respectable studios out there, and perhaps the only one who always works on original creations – it’s sad to see that they prefer to repeat the same kind of story all over again in order to produce more quantity while letting the quality of their shows drop gradually yet inevitably, instead of taking their time to create more series on par with the likes of Hanasaku Iroha.
It’s evident they have the talent to do so, but apparently taking advantage of those capacities is not part of their plan unfortunately, as the increasing frequency with which they release new anime series tells us.

Didn't they just refute that Yano and Hiraoka had dated? My recollection is that the twitter statement didn't go farther than that.

Turns out Shirobako's portrayal of the producers was way too positive.
