Animation Production: Surrounded by Beautiful Girls, Yet Still Dominating the Industry

Lin Zongxue returned to 2011. That year saw a surge of excellent anime productions: Fate/Zero, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Steins;Gate, Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day, Guilty Crown, Nichijou, Future Diary, Hanasaku Iroha… That year, Sakura Rinne, Uchida Mari, Ueita Sumire, Mizuki Inori, and a host of other beautiful girls ushered in the era of idol voice actors. That year, the 2D gaming industry began to flourish. That year, the global 2D market surpassed $10 billion, and ten years later, that number would be a staggering $120 billion. Undoubtedly, a brand new opportunity had emerged. It remained to be seen who could seize this opportunity and rise to prominence.
