That's one thing I don't like about the streaming trend. They have a lot more freedom to do what they want but the seasons are much shorter.

I don't need 28 episode seasons, but maybe 15?

Yeah, honestly so much is lost with the shorter seasons. And wrt LD in particular, I get that filming 28 episodes a year was hell on the actors/production, but surely doing VA is less time consuming than live action acting?

You might be underestimating how much effort the animation is.
