I just finished watching Shirobako and it left me with mixed feelings. On the one hand, it was exceedingly interesting to see more about what actually goes into the production of anime so I really enjoyed those aspects. Sadly, the actual plot and characters never really resonated with me so a lot of the drama and personal stories fell flat. Still, I'm glad that I watched it just for the perspective it gave me about anime.

Also, I wasn't a fan of a lot of things in the second half. About six seconds after that 'funny story' jerk was introduced I immediately guessed the entire plot and I knew I wouldn't enjoy it. Ah well.

I pretty much agree with you. I recommend bakuman if you want something similar but with more compelling characters and plot. it's about manga more than anime though.
