I am mentally very depressed now. I am faced with a terrible dilemma and I seriously don't know what to do. In short, it says, “What am I making animation for?” “What is the reason I am alive?” “Is there anyone who needs me?” It ’s like that. https://twitter.com/HiconManiacs/status/1203826486643290112

he posted more his feelings on his twitter here https://twitter.com/HiconManiacs

for some background on who he is
Sword Art Online: Alicization Director of Photography Kentaro Waki
https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interview/2019-01-09/sword-art-online-alicization-director-of-photography-kentaro-waki/.140449
basically he is the reason for why SAO Alicization looks like having that instagram ufotable coloring effects and other digital/computer effects

Okay, he is going through a phase. What encourage should he be given, if he is doubting himself? Sweet platitudes to make it look like his work has a bigger meaning? I thought your lot did no believe in neither.
Yikes, someone burned out real good.
"And the fact that no one is watching the my animation means that at the same time I don't have social recognition ."
This makes little sense to me, personally. As in why would anyone look for social recog... oh right Japan.
...So anyway, I dropped him a line. Hopefully he stops obsessing and gets back to work.
Just... just a question - how much part did he have in the last Gundams and, especially, the special film featuring "Cage" by Tielle and Hiroyuki Sawano?

I am sure by this point someone notified SUNRISE and they are doing their best in trying to get in contact with Kentarou.

That's awful. Hope he goes through this phase quickly and gets back to full flow.

He does not seem to have read my message either. Although that is not much of an indication. Hopefully he took a week off and is messing around some arcades or something.

So good news he is still kicking. Willing to talk about various things on Twitter. Hopefully he is getting better.
