Animation Runner Kuromi (アニメ制作進行くろみちゃん) is a single episode OVA Anime film produced in 2001 by Yumeta Co. It is a Parody of the anime production business itself. THE PLOT The plot revolves around a girl called Mikiko "Kuromi" Oguro who grows up watching the fictional anime "Luis Monde III. She decides that animation is something she wants to do, and so enrolls in animation school. When she gets out of school, she is delighted to find a job at a small animation studio named Studio Petit. The director of the studio shows her around and gives her the nickname "Kuromi," a name meant to abbreviate her own. Unfortunately very soon after Mikiko arrives the director falls seriously ill and leaves his post, but not before he appoints Mikko with the job of Production Desk Manager, on the second episode of the studio's current anime "Time Journeys". We follow Mikiko's frantic attempts and schemes to convince the studio's artists to work harder and produce their keyframes in time to send them for production. TRIVIA After the anime, the film includes a very short live-action documentary in which several anime artists give their opinion of the film's representation of the anime business, and the making of "Animation Runner Kuromi" itself is discussed. There is also a sequel to Animation Runner Kuromi called Animation Runner Kuromi 2 |
