so basically, 25% of their revenues come from selling their stuff oversea, and 25% from selling dakimakura and shit?

Big chink stream deals

>>154572740
Doesn't mean it's good, just means it's really, really popular, more than anyone could have expected.

Merchandise dropped quite hard.

>>154572813
What do you think advanced home 3d printing is going to do to figurine sales?

>>154572843
It'll probably make figure maker make porcelain figurines, since those probably won't be 3d printable.

That shit looks very interesting and very professional. I'm keeping it. Thanks.

>le "anime is dying" meme turned out to be untrue
No surprise there.

>>154572843
Garage kits are going to become more complex with better sculpts as tech matures.

>>154572877
God did I fuck that up. It'll probably lead figure makers to create porcelain figures.

Most 2009-2012 anime were so shit.

>>154572887
No one believed that meme except newfags.

>>154572887
Anime might die in a different way, by Japanese producers sucking Chinese cock and pandering to chinks.

>>154572887
Japanese anime is dying
Chink anime is rising

Like Chink web novels
Chink comics
Chink Hollywood
Chink solar panels
Chink electronics

Jeez, how many weebs live there?

>>154572902
There was also a recession, no one had money to spend.

>>154572632
it literally says in the article, China.

Are figurines really that much of a best selling items?

I always see cheap things sold for expensive values like trinkets, towels, tapestries, etc to be the main income source merchandise-wise.

China was recently hit by its own growth limit and fucked global economy over due to overwhelming stipulation on the growth. In a few years, China will start declining.

It's interesting that the overseas market has gone back to it's 2006 peak.

But mostly due to China, as opposed to the US.

>>154572887
Its not dying due to China/Asia market.

In US/Europe its pretty much flatlining or worse. Population grows by year if it flat lines, it means its at negative growth.

This just means more anime will be marketed towards Chinese/Asian market rather than American/US market.

BASED CHINKS SAVING ANIME

>>154573175
>This just means more anime will be marketed towards Chinese/Asian market rather than American/US market.
Good

Asia is the saviour of both anime and gaming

Guys, reminder that these reports are for ALL japanese animation, not only for your otaku pandering late-night anime.
Huge chunk of those numbers is contributed by kid shows like Doraemon, Detective Conan etc. For example majority of merchandise sales are literally children toys, not your stupid figurines.

Also note that oversea sales includes not only streaming, but also home video distribution, merchandise and other stuff.

>>154572364
With BD sales being such a minuscule contributor to revenue, is the shitposting in Amazon Stalker threads really worth it? It's no longer the best measure for a show's success now is it?

WESTERNERS BTFO
LITERALLY IRRELEVANT

>>154573175
>This just means more anime will be marketed towards Chinese/Asian market rather than American/US market.
And that's a good thing. It keeps the SJW and all those atrocious Western tropes at bay.

This type of charts would have been much better if we actually knew what series make up the majority of these numbers. It's like saying 2016 was good in terms of BD sales, even though 3 shows in total sold more than 2 whole seasons.

>>154572364

The report makes explicit mention of that. And I don't think people here still hold the delusion that late-night is as profitable as little kid shows.

>>154573236
Thank fuck for that. I don't want /a/ to be relevant to the anime industry, never mind Reddit, MAL, ANN, etc.

>>154573230
Shows with more BD sales are more popular than shows with less 90% of the time.

>>154573224
But for events like Anisong concerts and live anime events, they're typically from late anime anime, no?

>>154573266
Idolshit is dying

>>154573274
>implying Baidu or Weibo is any better

>>154573261
We do know. Kids' shows are the vast majority of the revenue. The mainstream may be less dedicated, but that's where the cash is made.

There's only so much money you can make off selling CDs and digital downloads of seiyuu who can't sing for shit. Anyway, concerts are where the money's at which is what the report mentions.

>>154573291
Nah.

Precure, Aikatsu, etc live shows are happening all the time.

I bet the "Pachinko and the likes" are majorly Aikatsu/PriPara machines as well.

Great thread.
One because it demonstrates how the anime industry keeps growing. The guys who say the industry is dying get btfo.
Second because it shows that streaming is completely irrelevant in the game, and the streaming powerhouse is China anyway. CR btfo.

I do not 'hate' China per say. I have Chink friends. But the country is one of the biggest shitholes of the Earth, and that's something objectively observable if you do so much as simply look at the news.

Pachinko is the key to success.

>>154572608
You mean 25% of their revenue comes from Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Netflix. Don't kid yourself, Americans don't buy DVDs

>but, muh theory that watching CR is worthless and everyone should feel ok pirating
Yeah, it's wrong.

>>154572930
China is a paper tiger

>>154572636
Honestly I think the low revenue from foreign markets is because of Japanese incompetence.

If you ignore a market for decades it will sadly decline, there's a reason properties like Saint Seiya do well in Asia, Europe and Latin America, because Bandai/Toei never told any of those markets to shove it.

Latin Americans have been into anime since the 70s yet Japan never exploited that market, when a convention or something happens it's always in the US and again I repeat saint seiya, they shipped the 12 real sized gold cloths to brazil a couple years ago and it was a success so again it shows that if you care about a market you get money in return, who would've thought.

>>154573472
More like from BiliBili

>>154573353
>implying you have to be Japanese to hate China
It's just the common opinion between most of China's neighbors

>>154573297
>>154573336
>>154573385
But I'm talking about anison singers, not singing seiyuu or idols.

The report's risk assessment of China is worth taking note. The overseas licensing boom is largely fueled by China but political and bureaucratic risks are there. I suppose the Chinese media watchdogs don't regulate streaming services at the moment?

>>154573353
>everyone who dislikes chinks and gooks is Japanese/weeb
Dubfag level argument there Kim/Chang.

>>154573472
Article clearly states the huge international revenue increase in the past couple of years is almost entirely China, so CR is almost irrelevant.

>>154572364
Merchandise really is king

>>154572632
You're asking the wrong question.
The real question is "why did it shrink from 2006 to 2013?"

>>154573499
Music sales aren't the biggest revenue contributors if I'm not mistaken, it's always concerts that make big bucks. That's just how it is.

>>154573548
No Haruhi
No Geass
No Gurren Lagann

>>154573480
>when a convention or something happens it's always in the US

Mexico actually has a convention oficially backed by the japanese embassy (J'fest) but guess what? Most mexicans are too cheap to shell out $20 for an event, let alone $50ish like in the US.

>>154573548
Pretty much half the American distribution industry didn't survive the economic crash. Del Rey, TokyoPop etc.

>>154573353
Most western people hate Asians, especially Chinese and Indians because we have a lot of student and immigrants here and can see that you are human trash. This has nothing to do with Japanese media, even if I wouldn't like anime, I would still despise these shitholes.

>>154572636
I am really curious about the anime in africa.

>>154573175
>In US/Europe its pretty much flatlining or worse
Speak for yourself Johnny, anime and manga is getting even more popular than it used to be in the haydays of Death Note here.
>This just means more anime will be marketed towards Chinese/Asian market rather than American/US market
It never was marketed towards the US, stop it with this meme. The US and EU market liked some products that were fairly unpopular in Japan but had no infulence over their production in the first place.

>>154573250
Don't forget to sing your daily Chinese national anthem and pray to Chaiman Mao.

>>154573581
Really? Over here cons can cost up to about $40 for VIP tickets but they're still generally well-attended.

>>154573542
Of course it is. Anime is something that can be broadcast afterwards, recorded, downloaded, etc. It has almost no physical value at all too.

Merchandising is pleasant to see, it has a feel, it's tangible, you can touch it, play with it, squeeze it, hug it, hotglue it and so on.

>>154573619
>but had no infulence over their production in the first place.
Well, this is untrue but almost true.

>>154573130
Over the line.

Will it ever be possible to stop using western when people actually mean American? words are important.

>>154573480
>when a convention or something happens it's always in the US
What? No it isn't. Europe has the two biggest conventions right after Comiket and numerous other smaller ones. And that's excluding the fact that pretty much every european country has their own conventions even shit-tier ones like Romania.

>>154573644
Western art might have been a source of influence, but artistic influence does not equal marketing operation.

>>154573674
America is the largest market for anime in the Anglosphere: the UK and Australian markets just aren't as big, so sometimes, it can't be helped for "American" and "Western" to be interchangeable.

Anime was quite popular but only Big O and (I think) Space Dandy is made together with American companies.

Anime is rising in China for like 2 years yet we already have like 5-7 titles made out of Chinese IPs and with Chinese capital.

>>154573713
Good thing that the UK and the aussie aren't the only other westerners, uh.

>>154573480
>when a convention or something happens it's always in the US
Anime Festival Asia would like to have a word with you.

>>154573713
Yet the french market produces and consumes more despite being considerably smaller.

>>154573175
>This just means more anime will be marketed towards Chinese/Asian market rather than American/US market.

>>154573714
Honestly that has a lot more to do with China going full "soft power" like the USA used to.
Because if they want to keep up their maritime antics, they are going to need people to like them or face a nasty backlash.
It's not as if it was only happening in anime either.

>>154573743
France and Japan have ties that can't dumbed down to "WESTERN BIG GUY BELITTLES SMALL GOGGLES-WEARING ASIAN". There's an actual friendship between the two countries and they love each other's (actual) culture.
Same with Germany.

Might as well be the US. It's 1 country that is literally right next to the US so there's no difference from it, do you think Argentinians or Chileans can/want go to mexico? do you think they even find out that event exists?

The southern cone is the richest part of Latin America, make one in Buenos Aires or Santiago and you'll get people interested. What you said is literally the problem I mentioned, they completely ignore the market.

Now it's too late, it could've been a thing if they started in the 80's or 90's or hell maybe the early 2000s. Nowadays TV in all Latin America refuses to give a shit about anime, at best you get scraps.

>>154573816

>You all have the same way to think: The American way.
It's not only European culture.

All urbanites think similarly nowadays

>>154573695
The Big O series 2 was part funded by cartoon network. Works such as the Animatrix and Interstellar 5555. It isn't significant but there was a period when western funded ventures were a thing. There has been more western influence again in recent years with things like Little Witch Academia and Netflix, Amazon and Crunchyroll paying for exclusive streaming rights and partfunding shows

Are you retarded? pay attention to what you're reading
>>154573992
>>154573864

>>154573941
Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt are not part of the middle-east in that sort of classification.
And that's where the closest thing there is in Africa to a "middle class" with disposable income for leisure is.
And again, french translations.
I'm not sure there are that many stuff from Japan that is translated into arabic, so in the actual middle-east you'd have to either rely on english translations and import or pull from the small pool of titles available in arabic.
And keep in mind that places like Saudi Arabia or Iran consider entertainment like movies to be impure and prohibited due to religious reasons. Movie theaters are technically illegal in Saudi Arabia.

>>154573968
Yes, but these are drops of water in the swimming pool. Does the fact that many studios outsource some of the work in Korea prove korean influence over the market as well?

>>154574041
The latest One Piece movie had its world premiere event in one of those oil-rich middle eastern countries, there's probably a sizeable amount of arabic-translated anime there.

>>154574041
>Iran consider entertainment like movies to be impure and prohibited due to religious reasons
Iran has a lot of retarded things, but they have a continuous history in movies and at no time during the revolution movies were prohibited or considered impure. They just burned down some in the 70s because of the western movies, not because of the medium.

>>154574070

You can search for an anime here, it should be a fairly african/nigerian forum. I know nothing about Ghana, Egypt and the rest.

>>154574070
That's a weak argument. In my examples Japan was effectively doing contract work for the US and Daft Punk, in your examples the Kore was doing the contract work for Japan. In consumerism which is customer orientated the customer holds greater influence than the producer. I don't deny that they are a handful of exceptions, but to deny absolutely western influence over anime during the early 2000s is ignorant

I was about to point that out but realized the report only shows the amount of kid's/late anime but not revenue wise. Although it's safe to assume that revenue for late anime is rising(especially since that's what China is all about) it may still be considerably less than kid's.

Anime is in a weird spot here in Brazil. It's not that popular, but some things just hit it off what made it popular.
I mean, here, about everyone either likes or at least knows about Dragonball and no one will think you're weird when you say you like it. Then there are series that the younger generation watched as kids like Saint Seiya or Inuyasha and they remember and like, but they aren't as popular as Dragonball and the people that watched it are not weebs or anime fans per se.
But other series like Pokemon, Digimon or Naruto are seem as kids' shows so they are not as popular as they seem (but people DO know about them).
Non-mainstream anime series that we had here like Tenchi Universe or Jibaku-kun are completely unknown and its quite rare to find people that know about.

Then there's the weebs here, that torrent/stream/download/actually import BDs/merchandisings but hide their powerlevels 24/7, and I assume they are the biggest part.

You have to take into account the weight of the mexican currency and minimum wage; we don't make enough money to spend it like the americans do. Most people make $350 per month, $20 is a lot in that sort of budget.

Nah, they're still working together with impoverished nip studios who'd work with anyone as long as they can make an actual animu instead of having to make inbetweens for the middle tier studios that are regularly mentioned about in studiowarring threads.
It will still take a few years before the chinks have learned everything from the nips before they drop them like a rotten egg (which are a delicacy in some region of China).

Knowing chinks though, most of their native stuff will be either historical low/high fantasy dramas or serious/comedic wuxia. Little SOL or school/academy based stuff
