Why do anime studios keep making adaptations of battle harems when most of them supposedly sell very poorly like what Rakudai/Asterisk did?
>>
Asterisk killed the battle harem. You don't have to worry about them any more.
>>
I want to FUCK Stella
>>
>>148460575
so what type of shitty adaptations will they make next?
>>
>>148460575
what will be the next big thing?
>>
>>148460693
Isekaishit
>>
Stella a best. A BEST.
>>
>>148460721
God no!

I wish we would get a new mecha fad
>>
>>148460523
Because you don't have to pay animation slaves when their job is to draw porn.
>>
>>148460797
yea actually, you do
>>
>>148460523
They're being paid to make them of course.
>why do studios keep making adaptations of SOL
They're being paid to make them of course.
>why do studios keep making adaptations of shounen action series
They're being paid to make them of course.
>why do studios keep making adaptations of shoujo romance series
They're being paid to make them of course.
>why do studios keep making adaptations of isekai fantasy series
They're being paid to make them of course.

And so on.
>>
battle harems were hit or miss but most have been miss lately. Something like date a live for example sold decently, and of course IS was a titan, but then rakudai and bahamut did awful.
>>
>>148460856
but at the same time they are not being paid enough because the blu-rays sell very poorly. Which is supposedly a huge driving factor in what to animate.
>>
>>148460856
That's a fucking retarded answer.

Studios that aren't producing original TVA have people who actively seek out source material to adapt. Popular LNs or manga might have several studios vying for the production rights simultaneously. OP's question is about why these people still seek to adapt shitty battle harem LNs despite them not selling very well after the market was inundated with them, the studio employees themselves get paid regardless.
>>
>>148460856
>I don't know how anime works

If you write the big new SOL/isekai/battleharem you don't go out to studios paying them to make anime. The studios come to YOU (or more likely your publisher) and ask for the rights to adapt your material.
>>
>>148461206
>The studios come to YOU (or more likely your publisher) and ask for the rights to adapt your material.
WHAT A FUCKING RETARDED NEWSHIT
In 99% of cases adaptation was made by studio who was paid for it. Owners of IP make with sponsors Productions Commitees and they are owners of the animation rights.
>>
>>148461206
Since when do those studios want to become part of the production committee for such low-tier stuff?
>>
>>148461279
there have been interviews with studios who have implied that a large part of their revenue comes from DVD/Blu-ray sales instead of whatever amount they were paid for the anime itself.
>>
>>148460523
They want to recapture the vast popularity of Raildex and Infinite Stratos
>>
>>148461582
well its not working
>>
>>148460894

If they keep making them, clearly they make enough to justify their work. That's obvious right?

The thing is that they want to make more money and naturally when you ask them how they can make more money, they'll give you the best way for the individual audience member to turn dollars on hi or hers bank accounts into dollars on the studio's bank account.
>>
>>148460733
This. Too bad we're pretty much the only two people on this board with refined taste.
>>
>>148461657
then why do they complain that its not making them enough money
>>
>>148460721
Well, at least we have, like, 5 isekai that are good? I'm counting ones that have good start, yet falloff on the long run, like Arifureta (damn you Arifureta, you were so cool and edgy in the first part)
>>
>>148461871
It's not enough to give the studio some wiggle room and take a risk on director's vision of an original anime about a cyborg detective trying to solve a case of seemingly unrelated zombie outbreaks using mecha.
>>
>>148461989
what?
>>
>>148461871

They are hoping that it'll scare fans into giving them more money, again, because they want more money. They'll never make enough money. Whatever increases in revenue they get will be used to make more anime to make more money that they'll use to make more anime to make more money.

I mean you're basically asking why people whose living depends on you buying their products are telling you to buy their products. They'll use any legal sales method they can and telling halftruths in interviews literally costs them nothing.

i enjoyed rakudai. why did assterisk get a 2nd season instead
>>
why are all translated stella doujins shit /a/? it rustles my jimmies.
>>
>>148462489
has any independant research been done on the anime industry to see how much they rely on blu-ray sales, etc?
>>
>>148462561
they are all consensual heterosexual sex to boot. kimochi warui.

i feel like i've had this exact exchange with you just a few days ago
>>
>>148462753
it's probably not uncommon for people to get annoyed at vanilla porn
>>
I can't take rakudai seriously as a harem when the MC chooses in 4 eps and one of the contenders is his blood sister.
>>
>>148462918
well he does have a loli teacher who asked him to fuck within 3 pages of meeting him.
>>
>>148462840

it was regarding the exact same character and the phrase kimochi warui was also used. i've convinced myself you're the same guy.
>>
>>148462958
i wasn't even on /a/ a few days ago, but whatever floats your boat i guess.

In order to do that you'd basically have to look at the books of every single anime studio in detail and then generalize. It'd be a massive undertaking which would end up generating hardly anything worth knowing. You'd probably find that some studios make a lot of money through X and another through Y and some don't make any money at all have stayed alive for years by telling investors that they are just in a temporary slump and that they'll turn thing around next season and so on.

The only people that might give enough of a shit to justify such an investigation would be the tax collector.

Any time someone gives you a figure like "The anime industry makes X% amount of it's profits off Y" it's really just complete asspull figures. The figures today might be completely different from what they were ten years ago and there's nothing that says that it'll be even remotely the same ten years from now.
>>
>>148460523
Well do you seem them this season? No right?

Its all about the juicy isekai now. I'd say if something more mediocre like knights and magic does well we're going to see even more of them.

Incidentally this isn't entirely unlike how a few days ago Hiroshima was telling the media that 4chan was dying. The site might be doing just fine financially and Hiroshima knows that by simply telling users to buy more 4chan passes, it'll result in more 4chan passes being sold. Meanwhile the world media gives the site free advertising by talking about how the meme machine is coming to an end.

Battle Harems is dead in the water, It's all about Isekai now.
>>
>>148465689
when will isekai die
>>
>>148460523

What the fuck is a "battle harem" anyway? Like, I presume it's a combination of a battle shounen and a harem anime but has such a thing been done even?
>>

Asterisk was that anime that was simmilar to another on a different day right?
>>
>>148466019
On the same day, probably literally same hour
>>
>>148465914
After Isekai, we will probably enter an edgy era or something
>>
>>148465964
You've been watching anime for 2 weeks, I presume?
Also, there's 2 examples right in the OP, can you even read?

I hope we just go back to ordinary school harems. I'm sick of this fantasy bullshit.

I wish we get a new golden age of bullying, teasing and pure love with Kaguya, Forehead, and Black General spearheading it.

>>148466308
Nono, I meant edgy era as in dystopia or something like that.

Then again, if we can have schools in Owari no Seraph, we can have schools in anything.

Ordinary school harems have greater focus on the the characters instead of whatever excuse plot battle harems have.

They don't? There have been like three this whole year, and none this season.

>>148460781
Mecha has always been as or more popular than battle harems, though.

>>148469760
MC has a harem of girls who all can fight (more or less). That makes it a battle harem.
