I havent seen a single thread in /a/ history about this manga/anime that isnt sales shit related. Like I dont even know the name of one character but I know its sales because every time I see it in the catalog its sales shit related. Do any of you actually even watch/read it, or its just a dick measuring competition of sorts
>>280805018 (OP) So... what happened? What made KnY explode so much? Was it some kind of money laundering scheme or was it just 5D-chess levels of marketing and PR?
>>280805743 Read it and finished it. No one's discussing it because there's nothing to discuss. It was trope-by-trope a generic shounen that ended in a satisfying manner without any plot holes or questions. Waifus aren't pretty conservative, so hornyposting is also dead. Everyone's sated, and salesfaggotry is the only one you can make posts about
>>280806308 >Just animation, and you know that. Why didn't Fate/Zero or Fate/UBW explode like that then? It's not like the animation in KnY improved that much until then.
Just imagine if World Trigger had the same level of animation of KnY. KnY is proof that an average manga can go to extreme levels of popularity with stellar animation.
>>280810340 I love WT but it wouldn't be breakout popular even with top tier animation. Endless cast spam and autistic otaku based appeal would limit how many normalfags can care about it.
>>280811450 Ashihara is very smart so he could probably have pivoted to addressing a different, less nerdy audience if he had gotten a good seasonal anime instead of Toeishit.
