Need a bodyguard? I think you might need it in the near future… … …

Well, that, and a lawyer.

[...] While I was away, it looks the blogosphere didn’t run out of interesting topics to talk about. Heisei Democracy had an interesting article on dumpster diving animation studios and like Jeff, I’d like to go scrounge around the offices of Kyoto Animation or Megami Magazine when I have the chance.

>>Seiya

This is where you adopt the “American Splendor” shtick, where guest artists illustrate Harvey Pekar’s stories. Of course, the problem is finding suitable artists…

>>wrex You'd think so, wouldn't you? I suspect if anyone ever got word of this, they might start. >>Demian The documents that I can understand are not at all incriminating, I suspect it was more of a news-blackout sort of thing. I can put up more pictures of the text-heavy things if people are interested (although I would feel morally obligated to blur out the e-mail and phone numbers of the Sunrise higher-ups) >>Kurogane I would assume it's in Kyoto (although I've never actually checked) which is a place I would be loathe to return to. But that's a different story... >>Sydney2K If I were a more drawing-type person, I might attempt this. As it is, that would be a hopeless venture. Anyone else that feels like attempting this is more than welcome to go for it so long as some form of credit is given. >>meganeshounen This was actually some time ago (SEED was still pretty new) so no luck on Geass. >>tj han Why do you have to be so hard on junk? Seriously, though, they may be photocopies (except for some of the memos, which are hand written, whoop-de-doo, I know) but they are absolutely priceless to me. If nothing else, just the fact that they so clearly don't want me to have them makes them wondrous treasures.

>>Olynssis

You’d find Olynssis stuff in Toei’s garbage.

Man I love your stories. Awesome… it’s like some Ocean’s 11. Or rather, Otaku’s 11. But it’s still junk isn’t it? All seemed like copies.

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.
And in this case… sacred.

Wonder if there are any more recent stuff in there.. like Olynssis or Geass?

hahaha! thats pretty cool!
it seems that the production documents are copies, so sometimes you can just chuck them(i do). what i would be worried about is if you found the original document in the dumpster…now that would be a problem for the studio!

Fucking awesome. Every otaku’s dream. Now to find out where is KyoAni’s studio located…

So what exactly were these secret memos no one is supposed to know about? Sunrise must have it’s fair share of dirty laundry, or literally garbage.

wow, score!

You’d think that they’d put these through a shredder first if they were going to throw them away.
