what happened

>rise and rise of anime
Could have fooled me.
Seems like everything turned into dogshit and is either stillborn and dies upon trailer release or is a pump-and-dump two cour show to trick viewers into thinking it'll somehow be any different.
Then again

Bongs aren't known for having quality taste in anything.

its funny anime became "mainstream" when it finally died - its era of Chinese donghua and korean webtoons now.

Last season To Be Hero X btfo every anime and this one Lord of Misteries goes so hard, watching japanese shows after it just feels like cringe and embarassment. And the next "japanese" show to be a big hit will be again... Solo Leveling S2 - a korean webtoon adaptation.

>>280292236
why are gooks so delusional

>>280292236
To be hero X? BTFO'd by Precure, which is nichiasa. Solo leveling? Shitty merch and BD sale, no toys from bandai, no collab with restaurant or amusement. Why is Kakao so unhappy about solo leveling's secondary sale if It is Japanese anime killer? To be hero X has 0% viewership in Japan spite being aired in Nichiasa, kicking one piece away to night. But still loses to one piece's viewership. And Precure trends in nichiasa while to be hero x doesn't. Precure is queen of nichiasa. Mature than any Korean and Chinese slops, and sells lots of Toys from bandai. Like transformation flash, transformation ribbon, transformation key, Purimero doll.

>>280292085 (OP)
Because everything else has become shit. Anime and Manga still produce cool works unlike most western frachises.

>>280292262
name a show this season even remotely comparable with Lord of Mysteries?

I am sorry no one cares about bankrupt nip isle. Anime nowadays only exists still due to Netflix and Chink broadcast money.

Millenials loved anime as kids, surprisingly zoomers also love anime. Now it's more available than ever and the bulk of the media consuming population is generations who grew up loving anime and continue to love anime. Meanwhile, comics infrastructure is largely broken and comics are being used as content for films and televisions while western cartoons are being defunded if they aren't a kids film or adult show made for streaming.

Not surprising that anime is at peak domination. It was a long time coming with no real competition save video games and social media but even then it's grounds for cross-pollination

>ESL rambling
Every time

>>280292337
But solo leveling's secondary sale flopped, which made A-1 lost, and Kakao is vocal and unhappy about this shitty secondary sale of solo leveling.
Japanese netouyo named Mccoy(マッコイ)knows that Korean slops and Chinkslops cannot do media mix to generate secondary sale.

>>280292387
Is Merch sale like gunpla irrelevant for anime? Tinyping is good at secondary sale which broke Korean wallets by toys, but solo leveling cannot.

>>280292085 (OP)
Has been over a decade. Zillennials have just grown up watching this, the persecution of the 2000s wasn't enough to alienate this culture, and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger so here we are. The mid 2000s had the worst persecution and it was when the word "weaboo" was created, so many people were actually watching animu but they all pretended they didn't, treated Kawaii otaku characters like anathema and those who enjoy this culture slightly publicly as a complete lifeless out-of-touch hikki weirdo. Fujimoto also dipicted this in his manga and Hamaji also attested this in her livestreaming with Chiune.

>>280292387
No one cares about merches like this in anime and collabs?

>>280292236
>became independent from japan 80 years ago
>still worshipping and stealing jap cultures
why don't those sub humans kill themselves already

>>280292085 (OP)
That's not even anime

>>280292408
I was not talking about sales. It can flop, but it's still more enjoyable than latest marvel or dc slop.

>>280292455
Even worse, koreans are spreading their censorship standard to Japanese anime recently by CJ and Kakao lobbying TV stations in Japan which are shilling everything Korean like Fuji and TBS, as the way of "cultural trade" and "Korea Japan relationship". Rezero s3, nigoriri, vigilante,9nines, saikin no tantei are victims of this Korean censorship since these are not aired in China thru bilibili but got fanservice scenes in source material censored..

>>280292533
Which appeal does Korean webtoon have when they are censored garbages by passive? Korea bans bikinis. No Korean games and webtoons have bikini. Blue archive has no bikini since 2023. No Chinese donghua have bikini too. Tell me 3 Chinese donghua and 3 Korean webtoons with bikinis. Korean censorship hinders them from being Japan killer. At least America doesn't ban bikinis, unlike Korea. You chosenjings ban bikinis, right, korea got gravure magazine burned by president moon. While Japanese convinience store sells gravure mag.

>>280292308
Sorry to be bringer of bad news, but Japan is dead and irrelevant. Anime only exists nowaydays thanks to overseas markets. BD and Merch sales to japanese otaku matter only for niche local shows no one else wattches.

>>280292387
non-japanese works aren't anime

west has stopped making cartoons that are targeted for teens

>>280292655
and all Netflix/Amazon/Crunchyroll/Bilibili funded anime also arent anime.

Anime is showelware poor budget isekai LN adaptations now

>>280292640
But why was Kakao disappointed on merch and BD sales for solo leveling tho?
Korea is suffering from skyrocketting unemployment rate while Japan's employment market is being active, and normalizing the economy due to employment in Japan being easier.

>>280292686
Is Gquuuuux isekai then?

>>280292715
>Japan's employment market is being active,
Bikini-shizo, please stay on topic of Bikini`s. Japan litterally importing nigerians now because theres no adult population left to fill any work places.

>>280292686
Isekai? Are AoT and JJK isekai too? Is precure isekai too?

>>280292724
worse, its insult to Gundam franchize and absolute travesty and bad taste, Tomino is rotating in his grave

There is state of employment market in Korea and Japan in this namuwiki site. Use translator to translate in English. And reminder that Korea's birthrate is whooping 0.7x due to feminists, saar.
While Japan's unemployment rate decrease and Graduates got job easily.
Bottom is the news about unemployment rate in Korea.
Why do u think Korea's 0.7x birthrate as serious problem? China has 0.9x birthrate.

If solo leveling is so popular, why is Kakao so unhappy about its secondary sale like merch, BD, toys and collab? Solo leveling's merch and BD sale was so shit, and no toy for solo leveling from bandai, no collab. If solo leveling was so popular, bandai would have made DX sung jin woo blade, Sung jin woo transformation belt, and Sung jin Woo plamodel. And USJ would have collaborated with Solo leveling soon.

But why did Kakao and A-1 sold lost spite being "popular"?

>>280293245
Korea can just get annexed by North Korea and their demographic problems will be solved. Japan has no solution.

>>280293277
Solo Leveling arise earned 100 mln$ in a month. Thats more tthan Guux and shit earned combined.

>>280292085 (OP)
Anime has been mainstream since the 1970s...

>>280293297
Arise flopped according to google play. And Ggen eternal earns more than this.

>>280293297
And Ggen eternal earns more than arise. Pic rel shows that feddies have same sex marriage.

>>280293278
Shut up. North Korea won't want to be united with worst feminist korea. Tenno heika banzai.

>>280293297
Good morning saars.

>>280292640
It is temporary and unsustainable money. Companies are paying several times more than they are earning to stream these anime. It might last another 5-10 years at best, but as more and more anime get shit out in an attempt to claim the free money that you can get just by existing the faster you will see a total reversal where BD and merch sales are all that matters again.

>>280293493
>he posted in 2014

>>280293380
North Korea is also feminist due to communism. It's an older branch of communism.

>>280292364
Ruri Rocks and City are gonna blow this garbage out of the water and you know it.

>Ruri Rocks
flop

I am sorry, but it`ll never be as good as Nichijou - Kyoani animators either BURNED OUT from overwork already or got FIRED

>>280293493
Why is Kakao disappointed at merch and BD sale for solo leveling if merch sale is irrelevant? If it was so, Maplestory won't have sold merches for slime, pinkbean, yeti, maple mushroom. And DFO won't have sold snowmage merch. Are these game industries retarded to sell physical merches?

>>280292364
Sorry but LoTM wasn't ranked in animate vote, and dAnime store vote tho.

And Korea doesn't give a shit about lord of mystery while they care about dandadan, bisque doll, takopi more.

>>280292085 (OP)
>now
Anime went mainstream back in early 2010's, you retarded zoomer

>>280293837
Does Korea have bad taste not to give a shit about lord of mystery? Solo leveling was not popular in Korea either as Kakao disappointed about its sale.

>>280292364
The chinks hate the rushed garbage though? Being easily impressed by ooh shiny is sad.

>>280292085 (OP)
anime is for furries, modern npcs are degenerates, do the math

Stop pretending /a/ has some sort of influence on the anime industry. It's just embarrassing now

Chink broadcast money? Only 20% of animes per season are aired in China via bilibili. Bilibili is only platform for anime in China. Spite this, ones not aired in China is censored, and Korea would have spread their censorship standard to Japanese anime by CJ and Kakao lobbying Japanese TV stations which are pro Korea. Solo leveling shills like you are responsible for censorship in anime. Vigilante, rezero s3, 9nines, saikin tantei, nigoriri are victim of Korean censorship spread to Japanese anime by CJ and Kakao's lobby. Since these are not aired in China.

>>280293986
stop hanging out with fags on 4chan

>>280293987
Is Gquuuux woke shit? How is it woke? G witch is woke shit. But anno hideaki is right wing and netouyo so he won't kneel to wokism.

>>280293576
I think what I'm saying is pretty realistic, considering it isn't just anime that is running into this problem right now. In 2014 there wasn't that many people online and every year more and more people would get online increasing numbers across the board, that isn't really happening any more and so now there isn't any easy method to trick investors into believing a ton of money will magically appear, because a cap on potential audience is going to be set at one point or another.

>>280294046
But why is Kakao considering merch sale important when they were disappointed at solo leveling's sale being shit? Is Kakao retarded?

Out of all these new webtoon, manhua, manwha, gook animu, chink animu and whatever other kind of twitter shit, toiletpaper format, AI ridden zoomer targeted nu-internet post CONVID shit and even new anime it is good manga, actually good stuff, that actually has some soul and love in it.
