What happened to Obari and Shirow? They both used to make good shit but now they just draw porn.

You mean, he used to remake good shit?

can't compete with newer artists

Time changed.

Noone watches OVAs and sci-fi these days.

>>13553177
Obari still works on stuff though.

Also shame on you for dissing Shirow's porn. If drawing and sharing the porn he makes is what he's happy with, then power to him.
>>
>>13553215
Shirow's been a husk of the man he used to be after the earthquake.
>>
>>13553286
Yeah, didn't he lose more than twenty years worth of his portfolio?
>>
>>13553177
Obari hasn't made porn since what? Angel Blade? It's been fucking years. He makes his living these days just animating other people's shit.
>>
>>13553293
It's his fault for not making backups, knowing he lives in a very earthquake prone region.
>>
>>13553326
It was pretty much all paper, and it took up quite a bit of space on its own. It'd have been a lot of work.
>>
>>13553331
He still ought to have scanned it though. Imagine losing all that work if you hadn't made a name for yourself yet.

>He makes his living these days just animating other people's shit.

In fairness, that was his whole career in the 80s.
>>
>>13553215
His porn is pretty bad though.

You guys realize that animators don't have to make their own content, right? It's just a job, of course they're going to animate "other people's shit."

You're right about Shirow. He lost 35 years of notes in an Earthquake and said "fuck it" -- and then proceed to draw "fuck it" in the form of boy-hipped women getting raped by horsecocks forever.

Obari still makes good shit. A slump in his career forced him into doing porn for a while, but that was like ten years ago. He's bounced back. Most recently he's been doing animation for such small, obcure titles as Gundam Build Fighters, Gundam Build Fighters Try, and Gundam Ironblooded Orphans.

Obari is on IBO right now

but IBO is shit

At least it's actual porn. Ohata is stuck doing ecchi until the day he dies.
>>
>>13554370
You make it sound like that's a bad thing.

Also he did some good Futa.
>>
>>13554370
The greatest tragedy. Sad to see someone with so much potential not put to use.
