Most important and talented person in anime industry since Anno or since Miyazaki?

How can one person be so based?
Easily - to sum it up, majority of anime scriptrighers are self taugth hacks with no talent and no perspectives to work outside of anime., Okada is different - she is talented proffessional, part of whose works (not the largest even) just happen to be anime. Same as Yoko Kanno.
>>
She always works on like 6 series at once. She only became known in 2011 and since then works like a horse.
>>
Tell me about Okada, why does she force the drama?
>>
“If I died right now, this period would be the hardest I ever worked,” she says, “I can’t forget the time I had to ride my bike to a meeting at 4am in the middle of winter.”

“Riding to work, I sang to myself ‘I can’t take this! I can’t take it!’ but when I got to the office, my co-workers unshaven but determined faces inspired me to go on.”
>>
>>139538662
>She always works on like 6 series at once
I don't know why she does this.
It might be best for her to settle at a studio.

All Okada wants is to make a childrens anime, but producers dont let her. She states that in every interview
>>
Actually well written manga? Can someone summarize one of her works?
>>
I want original concept of Anohana
>In the interview, Okada elaborated that the anime was first conceptualized to be about a group of friends and their awkward youthful sexual attractions toward each other. This comedic element was to be mixed with a more serious tone on the flow of time as they come of age. The supernatural themes of the anime was added later in its development stage.

>>139538948
There are two kind of works:
Realistic emotions, drama devices, more emotions. Too much realistic emotions for anime.

The other is - abnormality, social issues, taboos, exploring the dark and making characters inflict paint to each other

Hanasaku Ihoha`s Ohana is basically Ohana`s self insert. She is like that in real life

Infected is really good and ends in a really good cliffhanger, Spread starts to follow up but then falls flat completely.
M3 starts somewhat slow (or so people say because I have not felt anything akin to that) and progressively ramps up. It features some of the best character development I can remember in mecha, partially because most of the characters start as incredible cunts.

She does you retard, the guy who does the series composition gets royalties.
She figured out a system where she does series composition and leaves most of the writing to other the writers. This way she gets the most amount of money in a year so she could fuel her cock/drug habit like the slut she is.
