I know we're already in March but let's talk about the anime staff I discovered for the first time in 2021! 2021 was a really great year for anime, in terms of the number of exciting projects that came out, which of course meant that I came across many cool creatives at the same time. In this episode I share who I've come across, why I gravitated to their work and more on this episode of Get In The Mecha.

[Correction for the Da Wang Rao Ming section] Hiromatsu Shuu - was made aware that Shuu is a Chinese animator and not a Japanese animator - Hiromatsu Shuu is simply their Japanese name. Please ignore my part on 'dabbling' into the Chinese scene (as that point doesn't hold up any more upon learning new information). Thanks to Awayfarer for pointing this out to me. (Source)
I ommitted this part from the podcast but for transparency's sake I thought I'd disclose my error.
