@XENIZEN having an idea of how literal sh!t, borderline sl@v3ry the Japanese anime production used to be, to be able to pump out tons of material and underpay their staff with limited or no overtime compensation for 100hr+ weeks.... Reality shows are "easier" in that they can just film whatever ahead of time, especially if it's boring slop that relies on forcing cast to do gag skits that they don't intend to edit.... Even here, there's so much intentional copy-paste and bland or undefined parts just to save on workload and only focus the important characters 🫤
