As part of the “Young Animator Training Project” by the Agency for Cultural Affairs of Japan, young animators were provided on the job training for anime shorts. Previously, the name of this project was “anime Mirai”.
In 2010, the “Young Animator Training Project” was launched for the purpose dealing with the increased outsourcing of Japanese animation work abroad and to encourage the growth of Japanese Animation studios. Some great works were made as a result of the project, like Ongaku Shōjo, Little Witch Academia and Death Billiards. Television anime Death Parade was inspired by Death Billiards.
