Just started this one. It's a rather girthy Japanese novel that's centered on the anime industry. Kayako, a woman who once was enamored with everything anime spends years in the business becoming disillusioned and bored of what once was magical for her. Then, just like that, a standout magical girl anime titled "Yosuga" by director Chiharu Oji catches her full attention, and that passion comes back for her.

Chiharu Oji - director. Beautiful man. Worked on Yosuga his Magnum Opus. Doesn't like name being mocked for feminine sound nor indulgent praise. Abandoned team.
Kayako - assistant to Director. Pitched Fateful Fight: Ryder Light anime.
Osato - Blue Open Toy (BLUTO) director.
Kaede Marino - Designer of anime figures / figma.
Sakomizu - "Genga" (original pictures that are endpoints of cuts in anime) artist.

Every character introduced so far is "insanely good looking" "like a model". I guess I shouldn't get too mad at that or I'm playing into the stereotype they mention of the anime fans who write off a director's work cause he's too pretty. xD
But yeah, things seemed too "perfect" early, and then I hit the hook early which is that production isn't going as planned with the absence of a team member...

So yeah, that's the initial setup. You get to hear a lot of the fun and hardships of anime production, and see all the players, from toy manufacturers, to producers, to the big players in assistants and directors, and all the facets of how they interact with the public and behind the scenes. The Magical girl anime Yosuga is actually like Madoka Magica, dark, bloody, but with some coming of age.
