I'm seeing many people say Redline bankrupted Madhouse. No REDLINE didn’t BANKRUPT any studio, I’m so tired of BS around this movie. 🧵 The reports at the time said the reason for the studio's awful quarter was the collapse of a stagnant market in Japan.

So yesterday I talked about how Ghibli worked on the Superman/Batman crossover, but it doesn’t stop there they also helped Telecom on another DCAU episode.

Did you know Studio Ghibli animated a whole episode of an American Cartoon and not just any cartoon it was The Batman/Superman crossover special. This all happened because of Telecom Animation, Not only have they worked on countless American animations, but Miyazaki once worked there.
Like on this movie. (Key Animation by Kazuhide Tomonaga)
