THIS TOO...
(The events recorded above are mostly true.)
I wonder if I'll even make it to the new year at this rate... I'm uneasy - despite myself hoho!
Right now I'm living at the studio (6 tatami room) I'm running with two friends. I want to hurry up and get my own place!!
After begging Mr. K, I get my pay for Bi*** and go to live at Mr. M's vacation home in Shinshuu in exchange for some painting. I'm so happy to save money on food!

This month's income: ¥80,000
Still saying farewell to my partying days. I go from Hara in Nagano to Osaka and back for a friend's wedding. I should have made it with 4000 yen, but I got caught by a motorcycle cop and it ended up costing more than a railway trip. (Mr. M gave me the bike.)

This month's income: ¥10,000
I go back to Osaka for the first time in a while. (I'm originally from Ube, Yamaguchi.) With this, I say farewell to my partying days. I return to Tokyo, but there's no work because of a schedule delay.

This month's income: nada
With an eye to a color TV, I frequent the pachinko parlors. However, I give up when I realize I'm not even regaining my capital. How futile...

This month's income: in the red!
Mac**** drags on. When it's over, I'll help out with Bir** and others. It's hot out.

This month's income: ¥150,000
Working on Ma***ss, I hole up at Anime F***nd. This period is just like the previous. Suffering...

This month's income: ¥300,000
With a bad cold, I stay over at a friend's house and sleep. No women, no work, all I do is sit around reading Dazai. So miserable...

Monthly income: zilch
The best time in life. With the pay from Na*si*** I get a 3-piece suit. And I can get a girlfriend. Yay!

Monthly income: ¥200,000
The final stretch stretches on. Socks are a pain in the ass to wash, so I don't wear them. Day after day I go to eat fried tofu in the snow.

Monthly income: ¥150,000
Working on Na***caa, I sleep in the studio with the cockroaches. Even though there are no rooms for sleeping.

Monthly income: ¥150,000

This is both sad and funny.
The hard life of the Japanese animator, so much work for so little pay. I don't think the situation has changed very much for animators since the 80's.
Who do you guys think is mr m? Miyazaki?
