Why is KyoAni so successful?

>>150903511
I think them trying to move more towards movie production is probably going to end up doing them well in the long run. Even more and more it now seems like there are only one or two shows a season that can do really well out of disc sales. It seems like SHAFT might be attempting to get in on that action and move towards film production too with their newly announced film. Maybe a good survival strategy if we continue to see disc sales faltering before streaming can pick up the slack.

They do SoL well but also do flashy, eccentric styles well
SoL is a super safe market but they stand out in being able to make lots of memorable moments and interesting animation decisions to spruce them up

because moe, mostly. Also a dedicated fan base and not taking too many risks (if not any)

It'd be nice if they didn't use chromatic aberation. It's literally painful to watch nowadays.

They are literally better and more talented at making anime than any other studio.

Comfy
Nothing too profound or controversial and that's okay
Just comfy

Is Hibike even popular in nipland?

Relatively, I mean for a late night anime.

Haruhi
Lucky Star
Clannad
K-On!
Chunibyo
Much, much more.

They adapt good material and do it right. More than half of their shows are "must watches" or even considered to be "classics" of the recent years. All of their shows have this unique charm to them where you know you're watching a KyoAni show, similar to Shaft or Trigger in that sense. That charm is really likable by a majority of anime fans. Just a guess though.

Answered this assuming you mean with shows and not financially.

Here's a video I recall watching in the past few months. I don't remember much about it but I know it focuses on the topic.

Lowest common denominator.

He sounds like an oversimplifying autistic fuck.

To be fair I can see someone not getting it if they somehow never went through and never knew someone who went through a chuuni phase
Or someone rejecting it because they do want to forget and reject that phase in their own memories

>>150904932
No it's not about not getting it, it just isn't good.

There's a lot of animosity towards them because they practically reinvented moe and then dominated the market so much that other people imitated them ad nauseum
I got out of anime for a good year in there because literally every fucking thing was 'moe, slice of life, parody' for a good few seasons

>literally every fucking thing was 'moe, slice of life, parody' for a good few seasons
Bullshit. Never has been the case never will. Probably what you mean is the stuff people were discussing and was popular on /a/ was that kind of anime. There is almost always something creatively interesting every season.

>>150905189
Alright hot shot, what is it this season then?

>>150903511
Other studio are just that bad. KyoAni do things like following common sense and got praised for it because apparently common sense is not very common.

>>150905260
Flip Flappers.

They do good quality productions and usually nice lighthearted anime that is enjoyable to watch and hard to go wrong.

>>150903511
N A T S U K I

>>150903511
Because they have the ability to take any piece of shit plot and turn it into gold.

Wow, I can't believe you managed to write a post that's 100% fucking wrong

Them doing their first stand-alone movie like Koe no Katachi was a huge step for them - and luckily it turned out to be a success.
I'm hoping the success leads them to doing more

>>150903511
Godtier art, direction and music.

>>150908327
Hopefully another Yamada original movie.
