A blockbuster movie, initially termed as "Moto Tama" creates waves in Japan, with the creators expressing their desire not to achieve such blockbuster levels again. While the movie attained unprecedented success, the creators found themselves grappling with an overwhelming burden to maintain such a high standard. This increased pressure has sparked a wider debate about the intense demands within Japan's entertainment industry.

The Japanese value the mindset of "ganbaru", depicting a culture of perseverance and a commitment to doing one's best. However, with this news, a dialog concerning the crushing demands of stardom in the Japanese entertainment industry, specifically within filmmaking, has started. Individuals in Japan are now questioning the sustainability of such a strenuous work culture and its implications on mental health.

In the US and EU, mental health conversations are gaining traction within the entertainment industry. There has been a rising advocacy for healthy work-life balance, even amidst high-pressure careers. The pressure to replicate box office success similarly exists in the West, but there are ongoing efforts to prioritize the well-being of creators and reduce unnecessary stress.
