Yuri!! on Ice's 1st-week sales raises from 35,589 to 50,878

It was the perfect balance of the kind of anime that appeals to both normies and fujos.

Rather what went right

I said this time and time again, west fears can't hit japan
YoI sold well because fujos have money, and money from the west doesn't matter unless you personally fund the company.
you fears are ill funded, anime is niche and will remain so until machine translation is perfected
>>151958098

Several /a/ polls about best anime of the year and season don't even have YoI in the top 3. The average IP count for YoI threads was around the same as FliFla or Hibikek2, 120~. A good chunk of /a/ liked it but it was far from the majority.

There's been demand for more fujoshit for years, but companies didn't care. FREE! sold well, and we didn't see an influx of BL in anime during or after that time.

No normies is going to buy this.

It's all on fujo and maybe gay men.

>>151958578
I think women like Fate too.

>>151958687
Of course we did, look at the charts brother, there has been at least 4 fujos shows every season after FREE.

That's fine though since Fate will blow YOL out of the water with all their new adaptations.

But have they been successful as FREE! or YoL? Like I said 98% of fujo anime is garbage, but every once in a while something "good" comes along aka FREE!/YoL and the fujos spend all their money on those series because its like a goldmine to them.

Rank the following anime from most gay to least gay:

This right here is the problem, this pervasive subversion is the real enemy that everyone should take up arms against it.
>>151958857
It doesn't matter if they are successful as free or not, what matters is that they are being MADE, by better studios, with better budget, of course not every fujo show will get ironman numbers, but they are being made more and more, don't you know how executives work?

Not fujo, just a typical Jump sports series.

>>151959251
>Its fujo.
The manga doesn't have any BL in it though.

>>151959212
Is this for or against YoI? Because Vol.1 might end up selling 65k+ and doesn't seem like it'll have big drops like Sunshine.

>>151959281
>>151959288
It doesn't matter if the gay is canon. It has a bunch of pretty boys so it rakes in otomebux. It was the same for Kuroko no Basuke.

All I said was that I disliked the fact that the show sold so much and I'd happily watch an actually decent show that has homosexual individuals.

There are already a few good homo characters/relationships in anime, what's wrong with another show more focused on it?

This guy >>151958962
already gave a couple decent examples of anime that deal with homo stuff. Ironically, I felt Cardcaptor Sakura touched on it in the most mature way, with Utena being close behind it.

>>151959302

>>151959251
Nah, if Shonen Jump cared about fujo, they wouldn't have rushed Bleach and also told Hitman Reborn to hurry up and finish.

They also wouldn't have cancelled the Bleach and Reborn anime even though both series had fujo support.

>>151959052
It should probably be noted that this did much better than Free. It doubled Free vol1. If it gets heavy 50% non ticket drops (there is no indication of this unlike oso or haikyuu, but it could), it'll still average similar to SAO.

I dropped this after the second episode since I honestly didn't care for it at all, but I'd rather see this dominate the charts than some cliche ecchi harem.

By "normies" they probably mean tumblr

>>151959344
YoI won't drop as much as Love Live because it doesn't have a great event ticket so they could have similar averages if Love Live keeps getting this sub 30k volumes. Still Love Live will almost certainly come out on top.

Are professional figure skaters not normies? I've also seen plenty of people who don't watch a ton of anime actually surprisingly get into YoI.

Are there people delusional enough to think the BDs will fix the animation? The damage has been done, if anything the first volume made it worse.

Most of the tumblerinas can't afford to buy this shit. They'll probably buy the CD and some cheap merch though.

Basically.

It's possible, but I wouldn't bet on it. Sunshine is hitting 35k on each non-event BDs. That is BDs alone though, with no DVD release. I expect YoI to average 35k BDs while Sunshine averages around 46k.

Wow, you fucking think?

Also, animating figure skating is not at all like animating much else, even a fight scene. It's difficult as hell to squeeze in several sequences of continuous motion and have it be nice with time constraints. They touched up a few routines later on in the episodes too, so I imagine the BDs might do the same.

>>151959882
I thought you were talking about BD/DVD because of the thread, which would have been stupid. But yes, Love Live is a multimedia project and YoI is an original one cour anime so the comparison is retarded.

>>151959970
The BDs will definitely touch up the skating routines. They already touched up the first two episodes which didn't even need it.

The vast vast majority of anime doesn't fucking sell anymore in Japan. Fujoshi bait, music and live event tickets sell. Nobody there gives a shit about stories or characters or things like that anymore if they ever really did, they just want character designs to rub one out over and the chance to get premium concert tickets for way cheaper then they'd normally go for. Like it's literally the exact same shallow bullshit /a/ prides itself over only with the genders flipped.

>>151958718
Then we would have a consistent Strange Fake manga chapter updates or the continuation of Proto OVA right now instead of the Fate anime TM shits out this year.

>>151960647
This is the thread where anons cry and thrash at their keyboards and post whatever snotty mess comes out.

The money will ran out eventually, what won't run out is the rabid fans that should be put down to the sword or move to their boards.

So basically sales thread, I'm at the right place then.

>>151960530
Not him but it honestly depends on the show, LoveLive BDs for example are cheaper than average, usually just a bit higher than the average DVD price, LoveLive Sunshine 1st volumes costed around 4-4.5k yen, which is dirt cheap. That's how LL inflates their numbers.

>>151960287

/a/ is /v/ only the target hobby is anime and they don't seem to entirely loathe it at least in stated principle, just they actually talk straight about it as much as /a/ does about video games with everything else being bitchy commentary and limp-wristed baiting. Like think about it it's always the same bullshit and just wild claims and opinions that literally don't matter at all except swap out console wars for imagining itself forever locked in a glorious culture war against people that don't actually give a shit about them or even know they exist IF those people themselves even exist to care about /a/ which I often doubt.

Either way the discussion is always about being insecure shits over what other people are saying or doing and reacting to that like this thread. Here's something that sold really well half way across the world to people that don't even speak your language? What went wrong? Be mad fuckers!

/a/ is like those people that post youtube reaction videos and think the world at large actually gives a shit about what they have to say or what their personal problems and insecurities are. Boo fucking hoo, cry me a river.

If YoI trully sold 50K, it would have been shitted on by Fate/zerofags.

The first threads alone was ripped apart by Love Live fags, Madoka fags, and GuP fags. I'd rather not insist on 50k as fateautism is not a laughing matter. A gil thread alone gets 120 posters pumped in less than 2 hours

Either way it is not on the same price

Sometimes I wonder if /a/ possibly cares and obsesses more over R2 disc sales than the R2 market and even investors in this industry do. It's gotta be curiously close for a bunch of people that stand to gain or lose absolutely nothing in life should x anime show sell well in Japan or not.

Yup people like me that don't even post on /v/ cause they're too horrified by the shitshow ruined /v/, that's how this all works. I ruined /a/ too. Yup all me.

>>151960969

The one that has tendency to call a spade a spade. Like admit it you enjoy fighting each other over this shit more than you do the actual hobby itself. Other boards discuss disc sales on occassion but /a/ is the only one that has really designed a clear cut ritual over it that I'm aware of. Again it's literally /v/, just swap out eternal console wars shit for this anime sold in the 5 digit margin instead of the 4 followed by the obligatory shitposts.

>>151961050
Actually, the only people I see saying fujos are dominating the industry are the ones doomsaying about it, not the people celebrating.

We're a niche in anime's fanbase that's finally starting to get our dues, but we're not dominating anything. The market will always cater to male otaku because that's the safest bet. But the industry is starting to give us a chance and that's a good thing for creators who want to do that and haven't been able to get funded in years past.

Again the classic bit about /a/ being totally awesome and full of quality threads as long as it shuts out other boards. The board that much like /v/ constantly fishes other sites for news bits to bitch about and be paranoid over to try to make itself feel better. Literally if tumblr, reddit, and all the sites that /a/ is eternally obsessed with as "the enemy" (cause anime fans need enemies, that's what it's all about) disappear overnight /a/ just switches to being insecure about some other place and the cycle and eternal battle for it's awesome "board quality" continues.

Anyway yeah the whole /pol/ comparison that gets made constantly is pretty accurate as holy fuck do versus politics dominate this place. You could almost just remove anime from the equation and swap in something else and it'd be much the same ceaseless bitching and "gotta defend the culture"

Fujos have been around for years. The anime industry itself will implode before you end up with more fujo shows than male-oriented shows.

Besides, if this means more shows like Rakugo and Osomatsu and less CGDCT I'm perfectly fine with getting more "fujo" shows.

Move the threads to /y/
There, solved the problem

>>151961859

I fucking love that /a/ is so insecure about this shit and cares so much about it's gender war crap (this is the real /v/ console war style debate it's managed to cook up to drive itself) that it tries to latch on to any mediocre CGDCT show as the greatest thing ever and it's apparently impossible that a show that aims to pick up a female audience could never possibly be any good ever. It's actually kind of amazing that a niche within a niche within a niche like /a/ could be as insecure and self-assured of it's own apparent grandeur as it is.

IMO if /a/ has any sort of board culture at all it's simply being forever diametrically opposed to literally everyone else in the world and their opinions meaning it's doomed to an eternal unbreaking cycle of being butthurt about everything under the sun just like /v/. Just a really sad miserable existence for the people that inhabit this board more than once or twice a week or month. Like I almost feel sorry for them....almost.

they get what they paid for. and the same applies to you (nothing in your case).
also in the short term there might be a boom for them, but in the long run it might lead tp a more wholesome field like the manga market.

because it's not like the casual or male otaku maket will disappear. again, the money is where it's at.

also, they already tried only marketing towards the male hardcore, it only lead to creative stagnation. now they're trying the opposite.

Couldn't fujo sales be explained by the fact that there are less fujo series? The male market is spread thin by the 5000 harem series while fujos concentrate their purchasing power on the one or two anime that come out.

>>151962473
Males? Not so much but there are some. Normalfags in general? Yeah, a lot, in fact.

>>151962811
And Bake will never come close to FMA or eva. BD sales are on a decline. Its a downward trend.

No they're not. Just because something became super popular inside and out of Japan doesn't mean that the companies are gonna switch gears and cater to fujos overnight. Sure, it may bring bigger profits, but you can't lead a horse to water and make it drink. Besides, there aren't a lot of fujo shows in the 2017 lineup.

Natsume is a popular shoujo manga wih a female audience and Haikyuu has a 70% female audience based on shounen jump polls. Thats why they are on the list. You can argue the percentage of audience that are fujo, but they are bought by females.

>best grossing movie of all time
Have you gotten confused with all the pointless box office statistics? Avatar and Titanic are the best selling movies of all time.

>>151964022
I meant to say anime movie.

>>151964067
You mean Frozen then?

Frozen is yuri anime so otaku still win, though.

Are you the same retarded that said fucking Orange was a fujo show?

They're sisters.

That is exactly what you and your ilk wish would happen and it's nothing but delusion. Otaku are still out there, YOI is smalltime compared to Your Name. Stop the wishful thinking that the industry will suddenly become fujoland, it's embarrassing.

Are all russian sportsmen supposed to be gay or is it just how Japan see them?

>>151962978
Good. I don't get why nips are so into physical media. They should develop streaming services or have more anime available digitally in general instead. I'd be pretty happy to buy just digital copies, I hate clutter.

>>151964401
Russians are very homoerotic, to match their intense homophobia.

>>151964357
This is why I told you to stop being retarded before replying. Stop projecting.

>>151964272

The industry outside of mass-market box office films will be fujoshit. Ghiblitype will continue on.

>>151964791
Still, it's not like this is going to happen in an instant.

>>151964791
>>151964471
Kek.

>>151964791
>this is what fujoshit truly wish

>>151964791
No, it will be just like Free's success. A bunch of studios will put in the absolute minimum effort to shit out some fujo shows. None of them will do well, they will decide YoI was a fluke, and then go back to sleep.

Meanwhile, you will still have all the battle harem, low quality adaptations, and loli tea party anime you could possibly want, because even when those shows flop, they don't cost anything to produce, and they still do better than flopped fujoshit. Fujos won't overwhelm the market until normies stop buying Nisekoi and To Love-Ru BDs.

There's no sexualizing of grandpas in this thread, r-right? It's safe here?

>>151964357
You're projecting yourself on others. Fujos like anime aimed at males. (Love it, as those are the series that made them become fujos.) They would never wish for it to be gone. Shounen Jump has a huge fujo fanbase with series that are bought 50%+ by fujos. The reason you think otherwise is because youre projecting your fantasies on other people.

Is this what Yurio is going to look like in 40 years?

>>151965594
JoJo's, Re:Zero's, DBS's, LL's, Hibikek's, all those threads are usually far worse than this one.

>>151963957
Because otaku are sex starved beasts.

>Fujos like anime aimed at males

Do you even know what a fujo is? And them liking series intended for males does not change the industry into fujo fantasy land. They aren't going to stop pandering to male otaku tastes. Just accept what you get and stop with the delusions.

>>151958901
UtaPri also has the idolfag audience in there and the otome audience too. So blaming this mess on fujos is inaccurate.

>>151960287
If it means less battle harems and 6th rate trash like Bakuon and Shomin Sample I'm good

>>151960554
Fujos buy what little is available to them because there are rarely enough shows/goods marketed at them that they have to choose between series. When something decent pops up all of them jump on it because it's rare. They can't gear everything to fujos because there is a saturation point, something that's happening now in terms of idolshit aimed at guys.

>>151961745
Free! did fade into obscurity. Nobody gave a fuck about the movie and you don't hear about it anymore. Maybe that was because the movie was about shotas and cut out half the characters but regardless it's history now.

Free! was insanely popular as YoI is but if something better comes along it will be forgotten like everything else. YoI didn't really have any competition this season so it really got a good chance to stand out.

>implying normals are not fujos and gay men

>>151963957
Sports anime aren't even made with women or fujos in mind. I don't get why people keep thinking they are when most sports manga authors are traditional and homophobic as fuck. They tailor it more towards typical shonenshit and waifufag audience. Despite that pandering it still only gets mostly popular with female audience because of all the cute boys.

Free! and YoI are a few of the exceptions because they were actually aiming for a female audience.

>>151969343
Really? Was there another anime pandering to fujos with canon homo relationship for them to latch onto? Because it completely flew under my radar.

>Canon homo

Fujoshit don't need it to latch into a show. And the show didn't become canon until episode 7, but it already super popular back then.

Shows aimed at fujoshi this season:

>Swords(This one was an absolute behemoth, people though it was going to devour All Out and YoI. Huge fujo fandom and otome fandom too)
>Haikyuu (Still sold pretty good)
>Natsume (Sold 50% of the usual, enjoyed by normie women too but it has quite a fujo fandom too)
>Nanbaka (Bomb)
>Trickster (Another bomb)
>IBO Season 2 (Gundam)
>All Out (Bomb and really show lack of foresight marketing wise)

>>151969813
I don't know why a series needs a canon homo relationship to be 'competition', the season had fucking Touken Ranbu, Haikyuu and Utapri, all fujo juggernauts, plus a bunch of other fujo oriented series. It's probably the most competitive season for fujo bait in a while.
