Barnum studio speaks up about Kodomo no Jikan
Barnum studio, one of the animation studios involved in the production of the Kodomo no Jikan anime, has posted on their blog regarding the recent case where TV Saitama decided to remove Kodomo no Jikan from their TV schedule.
Apparently, the advertising agency and product makers are in a mess now, and the anime studio is not sure about the situation themselves as they were not even contacted by TV Saitama about the decision.
The blog writer believes that although it is already a big problem for the TV station to be removing the anime without any saying a word after receiving the money and after advertising that the anime would be starting soon, the bigger problem is with the people working at the TV station that think so lightly of such a decision.
The TV stations are licensed by the country and they have the right to do as they please with the contents that they put on the air even if they haven’t paid a cent in the production of the particular TV show.
The blog author feels that there is no future in the Japanese entertainment industry if they do not do something about these TV stations that would decide not to air TV shows at the last minute without considering that the sponsors have already paid for everything and that fans have been anticipating the upcoming TV show.
Personally, I think everything will probably be really toned down in anime for the next 3 years after all this rubbish because nobody would dare to do anything extreme in case the anime gets cut off the air.
