Fujoshit sells good for years. It still sells less than yuribait heavy hitters like LL or Madoka though.

And disc sales barely even matter anymore. It's all about merch and streaming $.

Vivid Strike being in the top 10 gives me hope that it gets a second season.
>>
>>152038949
Have you looked at stalker lately? 5k+.
>>
>>152039901
Wait till episode 3 for a more accurate prediction because LWA is an existing property so it gets a boost in the beginning that may not carry through till the end.
>>
>>152039901
It doesnt have any points
I doubt it
>>
>>152040009
Episode 3 may not be all that indicative since people that went to the 1-3 screening said the stand-out episode so it may get a boost that may not last.
>>
>>152040228
Yeah of course. Just generally if something looks like a flop by week 3 its probably RIP. But shows could still go down. Izetta was predicted for 7k at one point.
>>
>>152040009
Ao no Exorcist S2 is also an existing property and it didn't climb at all.
>>
>>152036326
>thinking LL and Madoka only sell as yuribait
Holy shit you are delusional, those are both almost normalfag tier shows. Everyone and their mom plays Love Live and Madoka is insanely popular with most demographics that watch any type of anime.

Fujos like action shows with a cast full of dudes because there are dudes doing dude things, and Drifters is an action show with a cast full of dudes, therefore, Drifters is a fujo show.

>>152042148
Tales stopped being fujobait when Ufo committed suicide and cut the fujo scenes for waifufagging. It bombed.
>>
>>152042525

I'm a fujo and GinHiji is literally the only ship I've been obsessed with for years. I know how big it is but this doesn't make it a fujo show. Fujos are just a part of its audience but it targets a much bigger and diverse audience just like many shounens do. By that logic, you'd call even One Piece a fujo show. They're not. They just have fujos in their big audience as well.

If /a/ was fair and reasonable, nobody would have any reason to gloat. But they've been enraged about women and homos getting something instead of them, and entitled cunts deserve to have it's success rubbed in their face.

These are disc sales. People use them to see the popularity of a series and sequel potentional. Different anime generally need different things for sequels so comparing them directly isn't always too helpful. On /a/ its mainly a dick measuring thing.

im dont really into ecnomics and shit or animu news

so let me get this straight, 15k sales are them breaking even?
would 30k be good?
45 is great?
60 is a hit?

regardless of whether i like it or not, im glad to hear it sold well. a lot of love was put into it on both sides and this paves the way even a bit for fujos as a market
>>
>>152049280
Depends on the show. Some people say 3k is enough BD sales for merch to cover the rest and break even. 10k being enough for BD sales along to cover the costs. 50k is funding like 5 cours of anime.

>>
>magical girl training plan

>>
>>152049280
Let me put it this way: Yuri on Ice volume one week one sales paid for a little less than 1.5 cours of an average anime.
>>
>>152049280
Assuming that an average anime costs 2,5 million dollars to make (which is incredibly supercheap, and a large part of that money isn't even used for animation, but rather to host related events or promote the show for merchandising), and a disc is around 60 dollars on average (around 55 for a dvd, 65 for a bluray, so let's go with the middle), around 40k discs ought to be sold total for the show to make back all its entire investment.
The total includes ALL discs from all volumes.
So yes, Yuri on Ice has already made back all its investment through the large number of volume 1 disc sales.
>>
>>152040619

>>
>>152049487

>>
>>152049280

I'm assuming you have brain damage because of how your post was constructed.

Generally:
Big numbers are GOOD
Small numbers are BAD

Manabi Line (~3k) = rough threshold for some kind of profitability (varies depending on the show, since not all shows have the same requirements to be profitable). Many shows do less than 10k and still return on their investments.

Series-themed events and merch sales are also huge factors for success but we cannot track how much revenue they bring in per series. Hence relentless dick measuring contests through BD/DVD sales.

Shows above 30k have hit some kind of mainstream appeal outside of the niche otaku market. >60k is wide appeal and >80k is a classic/incredible hit.

YoI could conceivably get to the 80k mark over its six discs. It'd be a bit of a stretch, though. For comparison, shows in the >80k club include Madoka, Bakemonogatari, Osomatsu-san, and Evangelion.
>>
>>152040351
>>152040402
BD sales are irrelevante for Ao no exorcist
>>
>>152049544
Sure. Also, anime discs tend to have improved and fixed scenes, making it worthwhile enough for the fans to own them.
>>
>>152049565
Are we talking about one volume with 80k? Or 80 average? Because none of those have a 80k average.
>>
>>152035896
>Keijo sold so badly it's not even on the list.

Season 2 never.
>>
Male otakus stopped buying anime. They are now spending money on mobages like FGO.
>>
>>152049280
Each volume is roughly $60, and contains 2 episodes
10k sales is ~$600,000 which basically covers the costs of 4 episodes (estimated at around $145,000) by itself, not taking into account increased sales of original product or merchandise

On average a 12 episode series only needs to maintain an average of 4.8-5k per volume to break even, if Yuri on Ice keeps those figures it's effectively worth enough to pay for 9 complete flops from the same committee
>>
>>152049643
Hence making anime that promotes mobage is important.

Too bad for /a/ that /a/ generally abhors mobage adaptations.
>>
I wonder how much the 4th and 5th volumes of YoI will sell. Episode 7 and 10 are by far the most popular episodes and if they uncensor the kiss they can boost the sales even more.
>>
Event ticket or no event ticket, anime usually has a 15%+ drop volume one to volume 2. When the number is high the drop is even larger. Just look at Osomatsu or Madoka.
>>
>>152049782
Generally popular episodes dont have an effect on volume sales unless its uncensoring nipples.

i dont know how you took that i wouldnt know that aready senpai. i wanted to know the average spectrum of profit.
>>
>>152049621

Lifetime sales. First volume sales are usually inflated due to event tickets coming packaged with the BDs. There's a drop-off as people don't buy the next discs in the series for various reasons (waiting for prices to drop, only cared about the event, only going to buy the discs with their favourite episodes/characters, etc.). Some incredibly popular shows get close to 80k with the first disc but it's very very rare. YoI doing 50k is worthy of mention by itself since most "hits" get around 10k for the first week.

The best indicator for success is waiting for total sales for all volumes. But there's no guessing and less room for shitposting by the time that information is available. If you don't want to wait for real information, look at the gap between sales for discs 1 and 2. There will always be a drop-off, but the steeper the drop-off the less likely the show will hit some magical number indicating "success".

Naturally, shows that sell less than 1k for their first volumes are probably not going to be profitable (from disc sales alone) even with lifetime totals.
>>
>>152049782
There's a bonus manga you can get if you buy all 6, right? I wonder how many want it.

>>152049851

You type like a moron. Capitalize your shit properly and don't use punctuation as substitutes for words.
>>
>>152049856
Lifetime sales of what? An average across all volumes? Because no anime has done an 80k average since FMA. Bake came close with 76k.

how badly does torrenting affect the industry anyway?
>>
>>152049927
There are maybe 10x as many normalfags streaming from funi and CR than there are people torrenting new anime.

And about 100x that many chinks streaming
>>
>>152049927
Obviously, the nip producers themselves hate it, because they'd rather that all those viewers used streaming services at least (nips of course ought to use stuff like abema TV, Gyao!, Google Play and so on, foreigners use whatever they have available).

But all in all, it doesn't really hurt the industry. It just means slightly less money in the pockets of an already rich as fuck cabal of companies that own the intellectual properties.

They do, with caveats: >>152050297
. But BDs are expensive as hell so many people just pick and choose the discs with their favourite episodes/bonuses they like. I don't blame them, honestly- it'd trigger me to have gaps in my collection but with how much money it costs to get the complete set without waiting for it to be boxed I can see why people do it.

If yes, you ought to buy it right now, no matter how bad your financial situation. Being from a region that wouldn't be able to play the discs isn't an excuse either. You can still watch the show with fansubs after you bought the discs and showed the producers that yes, there is an audience for this kind of anime that most likely wants a continuation in animated form. Just buy the discs and show that you supported it.

I think more than 80k of lifetime sales is probably very likely. I mean, 50k the first volume is amazing, and that's not even counting the discs with the kiss scene, the proposal or the pair skating. Those discs might even have sales around the first disc, if not more.

It's supposed to show the fact of the matter. Posts you linked were from both sides of the argument. None of which were mine.

>>
>>152055034

Two types of fujoshit.

1) BL: the romance comics between men that are usually absolute shit. They're more the fetishization of being gay than actually for gay men to read and enjoy. (But we're both guys! But he's a man! We can't do this sort of thing, it's wrong!. etc.)

2) Shows that prominently feature attractive men in some homoerotic situations (usually played off as gags or outright ignored by the characters involved) so fujos can feel appreciated when they watch.

YoI is definitely more of a type 2, but it's aware of how serious the romance is and doesn't try to play it off for laughs. It's basically a proper story that doesn't try to make a big deal about how forbidden the love between the MCs is while providing a bevy of attractive young men for almost every taste to ship.

Nope, bait shows have straight boys in funny homo circumstances with other straight boys, played for laughs because the characters have usually someone they like. This is very similar to the shows that fujos latch on just because there two cool males on it who look good together.

Then there's pander, like swordboys or free, ambiguous male characters all over each other with limitless shipping options, no female love interest.
I can see the confusion, but if everything that appeals to fujoshi is bait, even romantic BL that has no porn could be considered bait.

Yes, how dare they support the industry they enjoy. You know, people are aware how expensive shit is, but they do it because money talks and they like what they get.

One thing I liked about YoI is how they kept it pretty clear-cut, for Baldfat at least. Saves the fanbase from shipping war autism due to the overlap in ships. And they even manage to show actual male friendship outside of that (Phichit and Yuuri, Victor and Chris).

You have to be top tier delusional to think Yuri and Victor aren't flaming homos.

That's not fujobait or pandering, that's just fujos latching onto male characters who had chemistry.

That could be the reason why sales are down for males focused shows or that males are finally realizing how shallow these shows are and know they can better spend their money on something else or watch old shows that give them the same experience that the current shows are airing do.

I think neither, Saitama WAS an average MC in his "training" arc, the dude who wanted to be strong because justice.

Can't say Japan had particularly bad taste this time around. The season was pretty weak anyway. Drifters is surprisingly high though. Seeing how the plot was garbage. But otaku chuunis strong I suppose.

Looking at the sales a second time I notice Working is pretty high up. I've not watched this one but if it's as bad as the first ones, I'm a bit disgusted by that but part from that the sales seem OK.

>>
>>152059756
Light novels used to be about people experimenting with new ideas in a medium that allow them to publish that. Now they have been degraded because of the influx of many hacks wanting to make it big because of some hacks who didn't have much talent end up making it big and they seek to copy after them. Then their is the fact that producers always pick up the shittiest works because they seen these hacks sell well and think that much be the road to success regardless of how shitty the writing the material they choose to adapt is. The good LN works a buried because the producers chase after the material they think will make them money.
>>

Fujo shows tend to have some good girls in them though. They don't mind them as long as they keep a good distance. Keep the screentime gender segregated enough and I still think it would do.

I don't understand why they keep adapting works that are shallow as fuck despite having seen successful shows that actually have content in it. It makes me think they don't want to touch shows that are more complex because more work has to be putted into it to make it good.

Tsukiuta is an idol series that has some characters older than the average anime character and it's a franchise with boys and girls. Sadly in the anime the girls only got one episode, could have been a balanced cute boy/cute girl show.

YoI took the whole typically sappy "we actually met before" twist and turned it into something genuinely hilarious and revealing of their characters as well as recontextualized many interactions in the episodes previously. It was something that no one saw coming yet fit perfectly well. That's hard to pull.

I kinda feel a bit sad that everyone knows about it now though, it's much greater appreciated when you go in completely blind like when it was airing.

I still want to see more of these girls. I wouldn't mind if they made a spin off series featuring female skating. Girls like 2D girls that aren't bland self-insert MCs from otomes. If Otabek hadn't shown up, fans were putting Mila or Yuko with fairy boy.

Note that the girls wouldn't typically make good waifus either. Good characters, but male otaku won't tolerate older women, unattractive/unconventionally attractive women, women with dating histories, etc etc. They dont realize how unlikable female characters become when they're forced into boring, inoffensive boxes that make them palatable for otaku.

Not an accurate comparison. Women love male characters in series aimed at men, and they love imperfect and offensive characters (like the Matsus, and even YOI boys verge on slutty and mean).

It reflects real life, which isn't a bad thing for men because there's nothing wrong with wanting a good, nice girl. It just makes for boring characters. And wanting a seriously flawed person is stupid as fuck, but they make for good characters.

At least his pretty boy looks are actually addressed and part of his narrative, particularly when Lilia comes in the picture. It helps his presentation in figure skating, but then that scene with Otabek shows that he'd like more people to see his masculine side.

Wow, almost like "generic" and "normal" are synonyms.

You can find boys who resemble Yurio IRL, they just won't be as hot because people in general aren't as hot as anime character. The point that's being made is that he isn't overdesigned or distinctly "anime" looking. He's plausible, basically.

Butthurt? Over what?

LL is its own thing. Its existence doesn't do anything to YoI's success. Also Kotori is cute.
>>
>>152061513
can we stop with the higher ground thing now and just be honest
>>
>>152058345
Maybe because a lot of fujobait can be written off as bromance. If there is enough waifu fanservice to overpower the fujobait then it doesn't bother them. Guys acting gay without actually being gay is funny to them. It doesn't threaten their sexuality like it would to see their fav male character actually be gay.

>>152061513
And they still managed to at least a bit more realistic than your average moe anime, sasuga. Also Emil and JJ don't look like the male version of "beautiful girls" to me, so they were probably mostly thinking of Victor, Yurio, and Yuuri (on ice).

I think the butthurt is more "are we really going to see this for the rest of our lives" kind of stuff. LL dominates absolutely everything. Doesn't mean other series can't also do well in it's shadow.

>>152061513
They focus on tits and ass, what kind of innocent animu with girls has he been watching?

They really did make Mahmut more masculine in the PV. Do you think they did that on purpose to attract male viewers, so they don't immediately think "This is fujoshit so I won't watch"?
>>
>>152059789
Pretty much. Reina was basically drooling over Taki's dick every episode and Kumiko supported her going after an older man. There was more /u/ potential between Kumiko and Asuka to be honest.
>>
>>152061502
What is this manga about?
>>
>>152061681
But is there actual homo or does a cute shota boy imply it's for fujos?
>>
>>152061679
No it wouldn't, because you faggots still came and shat up our threads with your fearmongering and asshurt before the BDs were even on sale.

And the only ones saying YoI is dominating everything (as in everything in general, as opposed to dominating everything from the fall season, because objectively it did do the latter) are the ones so worried about the fujo nemesis taking their cute girls from them.

generally the fewer key animators per episode, the higher the animation quality as;

a) the art is more consistent
b) it implies they had more time to work on each episode

basically that graph is a really efficient, objective way of showing why YOIs animation quality was so inconsistent (and objectively terrible in some episodes).

there was an article explaining which is where the graph is sourced from, so maybe that anon could post it too.

Yes, fujos may be cancer, but at least they are not as cancerous as the most cancerous franchise in the history of movie franchises .

Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though

"NO!"

The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Well, it beat out everything else in the Fall season. So it dominated "things that aired for the first time in Fall 2016". People who say it'll be Madoka/FMA/AoT levels of successful are delusional or looking for replies. But it is a hit.

Nobody is saying YOI boys are ugly or that you're expected to like them? In fact they were specifically designed to be the male equivalent of bishoujo anime. But the YOI girls are likeable for girls because they aren't boring perfect waifus.
>>
>>152061854
No vitriol here, just stating facts. We stay out of their threads' shows, they're the ones who go seeking us out.
>>
>>152061681
i think its because attract more wider audience and also your Turks like Masculine MC (pic related)

if it was too feminine they would call out saying "they show us like faggots".
They already calling Mahmut as "Eunuch of Sultan's Harem" but overall they look positively
>>
>>152061731
Fucking this. It's niggers popping up saying "OH NO FUJOS ARE TAKING OVER, WAT DO." Fujos themselves are just happy to get something, but because of all the shit we got in the threads it made us WANT to see other shit fail just out of spite. But in the end, we really couldn't care and some of us are fans of the other shows as well.
>>
>>152061696
you meant the dojins our the manga itself?
its mainly politics, espionage, battle tactics, tricks of the trade, sibling killings, and ottomans with fujo and trap bait

every time I come here I see a thread about YOI sells you can tell they are not made by trolls
>>
>>152062014
or*
>>152061954
notHRE aka BaltRhein is a Empire that conquered notConstantionple aka Phonecia

notOttomans are now basically ruled by not by one Sultan but numerous Pashas and Sultans

you could say historical roles are reversed in this manga
>>
>>152061973
>"OH NO FUJOS ARE TAKING OVER, WAT DO."

most of them just start with 50k and then you get gloating fujos untill someone mentions LL and then the butthurt starts
>>
>>152062129
There is not a single fujoshi in the world who gives a shit about LL's success. Not a damn one.

The butthurt starts with the LL mention itself, because there's that one LL fan (probably you) who can't stand to see YoI doing well for some reason.
>>
>>152062170
new thread when?
>>
>>152062129
no anon, this was before the sales were out. The stalker threads were full of this and then they came to the /yoi/ threads. I didn't even care about the sales until anons kept bringing it up in the /yoi/ threads and when I go to look, lo and behold. The gloating came from even BEFORE that when anons would come to the thread talking about how gay it is, and shit the show is and it will never beat X or how delusional fujos are to think that this show would ever be real homo I somewhat miss you Lily shitposter. Someone has a screenshot of all the deleted posts that were made in one thread somewhere.

The gloating came from others coming in constantly shitting on us, and then it actually did well.
>>
>>152062274
if you just make a YOI general thread without the bait you'll get less trolls
>>
I think what this one butthurt Love Live fan doesn't understand is that female anime fans don't care about male anime fans the way male anime fans care about female fans.

We're used to you. The industry has always existed for you and catered primarily to you. Your successes are not seen as our failings, because we've always been happy to navigate around you to enjoy what we enjoy in our own corners. There's nothing to feel threatened about. You just exist. You always will. That's fine.

Male fans, on the other hand, seem to perceive this as some kind of war in which any female-oriented show's success is a great big heralding of the end. Male fans want to turn it into an us v.s. them spectacle. For some reason, you guys care way too much. It's not a fight, it's not a contest, but you really want it to be one. It's weird. We just don't care about you that way. Why do you care about us that way? What are you so threatened over?
>>
>>152062415
When can we get a manga or anime about fujo otaku vs male otaku and watch them fall in love?

The closest I can think of is this, but I want more bloodshed.
>>
>>152062129
From an outsiders perspective (I don't visit the threads), I've seen a lot of butthurt over YoI selling from /a/. It happened the same when KyoAni was going to animate Free!. /a/'s butthurt was legendary.

Not saying the fujos aren't gloating, but it's not like /a/ hasn't been shitting on fujo shows every chance they get.
>>
>>152062415
>I think what this one butthurt Love Live fan doesn't understand is that female anime fans don't care about male anime fans the way male anime fans care about female fans.

have you see the threads they say shit like otaku don't buy BD's anymore and and when someone comes and says that's not true and they still dominate the market people get buttthurt
>>
>>152062415
They're entitled morons who hate women and gays, it really comes down to that. They see anime as an extension of video games and other nerd hobbies that western men think women have 'invaded', despite the fact that women have always been a huge part of the industry and consumer base in Japan and have been here far longer than 99% of men on /a/.

see this shit right here, this makes /a/ want to shit your threads because you sound like tumblr cancer

Are you seriously trying to imply anons DON'T hate 3DPD girls and homos? It's not like it's a secret or anyone here gives a fuck if we know it. That's just how it is, typically I don't give a shit and that's why I'm on 4chan instead of a SJW hugbox. But when they start chucking tantrums over series doing well simply because they can't stand anyone else having nice things, then it becomes irritating.
