Nothing especially surprising here, but Anno recently has said he doesn't think the international market should be given much thought when producing anime and that it's the marketing people's job to sell it to the west rather than the creator's responsibility to make something with global appeal. It's hard to disagree with any of that. Although I'm not sure I buy his claim that the anime industry hasn't started trying to chase global hits.
Sorry to be a downer but I really don't care if anime is a global product or not, All I'm concerned with is that I enjoy watching it and that there's plenty to watch.
