Would not know where to post this, so I'll post it here.
Essentially, Hideaki Anno predicts that anime is about to collapse as an industry.
It might be overstating it to say he's being melodramatic in terms of anime's collapse being reflective of Japan's collapse as a dominant power, but I can't say I totally disagree with him. Considering that they have an aging population, fewer births, and a very torpid economic system (which, from other reports, have infected and begun doing severe damage to the anime industry in terms of production and employees), he may actually be on to something.

We have to remember what's important in life: friends, waffles, and work. Or waffles, friends, and work. But work has to come in third.
