It is clear that the anime Uzumaki has been a huge failure for Adult Swim. The low quality of the second chapter has shown the problems in the production of the series. Although one of those responsible has already spoken about it, the opinion of someone with experience within the anime industry has recently come to light.
Through a thread on his personal Twitter account, the former animator of One Piece and other animes Henry Thurlow
“Time and time again, these Western-produced anime get into trouble because the Western producers are rubbish. The latest Kawajiri anime, the unreleased AvP anime, now Uzumaki. Time and time again I see Western producers screw over artists and studios. anime here, and it’s infuriating.
In addition to these production problems, Uzumaki erred on the side of being too ambitious. One of the main reasons for the delay in its release was the technology used, which combines traditional animation with motion capture, a technique used to recreate the haunting atmosphere of the original illustrations of This is Junji.
While it is true that many Japanese productions end badly when they are under the control of Western production companies, there are some exceptions. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Scott Pilgrim makes the leap, and Terminator: Zero They are examples of successful collaborations between the West and Japan, which have received very good reviews and could be a reference for future projects.
