This Anime Was SO BAD, the Staff Literally Begged for Help in the Credits 😭

In 2018, one anime became legendary for all the WRONG reasons. And the animators left a desperate cry for help that nobody noticed... until it was too late. 💔 "My Sister, My Writer" (Ore ga Suki nano wa Imōto dakedo Imōto ja Nai) wasn't just controversial for its incest-themed premise — it became one of the most catastrophic animation failures in modern anime history. THE DISASTER: 🎨 Episode 1: Rough animation, fans concerned 💀 Episode 2-6: TOTAL COLLAPSE Characters' faces literally melted mid-dialogue Mouths ripped off faces and floated away Smartphones morphed into flip phones between cuts Bodies became floating torsos with no anatomy Entire scenes broadcast SIDEWAYS Animation quality rivaled PowerPoint presentations THE SECRET CRY FOR HELP: In Episode 6's credits, fans discovered a fake name: "Shōjiki Komata" (正直困太) listed as key animator. This wasn't a real person. It translates to: "HONESTLY, I'M SCREWED" The overworked animation staff embedded a literal SOS in the credits — a desperate message that they were drowning under impossible production conditions. WHAT HAPPENED NEXT: 📺 Episode 7 was DELAYED and Episode 6 re-aired... with the SAME cry for help still in the credits 🔥 Japanese Twitter exploded with "sakuga hōkai" (animation collapse) trending 😱 Studio NAZ outsourced work to Studio Buyu — normally just an in-between animation contractor — who were suddenly forced to handle KEY ANIMATION 💔 The staff was animating fanservice and controversial content while the production imploded around them THE AFTERMATH: Kotaku called it "one of the most notable production disasters of 2018." The show prioritized revealing bikini shots and fanservice angles while characters' FACES literally fell apart. Critics noted it was "one step away from hentai" but couldn't even animate properly. This wasn't just bad animation — it was a PUBLIC CRY FOR HELP from an industry pushed beyond breaking point. THE REAL ISSUE: This exposed anime's darker side: overworked animators, impossible deadlines, understaffed studios, and production committees prioritizing fanservice over animator welfare. The staff's only way to scream for help? Hide it in plain sight. 💬 Did YOU catch this when it aired?
