>>156359958
>>156359986
Maid dragon already passed 4k:
http://yaraon-blog.com/archives/104154

Because Netflix is a bunch of assholes that won't release weekly episodes and is stuck with the batch release meme.

That's meangingless though. They don't gain or lose much from those sales, Tattun already confirmed it numerous times.

Sales are good to see if the crowd wants a second season. These numbers aren't too bad so LWA might, and Trigger already wants to do it.

>>156360127

Little Sales Academia, HAH!

>>156359938
Akko is an annoying piece of shit

>>156360140
Partially this.
The success of a show is not all about the selling of phisical supports.
First thing first must be considered the TV reception that is the main purpose the series has been made. Then there is online services and other stuff.
BDs and DVDs are becoming more and more collectors material. Actually they already are. Only niche of people buy them.

>sold more than Maid Dragon's first week
Kek
But honestly, it's not that good of a series. Bad pacing, too many mediocre episodes. These sales are about what it deserves.

I was wondering, why Trigger still not cancelling this anime ?

Does not matter, this show has Netflix bucks.

>>156360162
The latest Febri interview they did. Basically Producer-san and others said they'd like to keep working on LWA if Yoshinari wants to do it, and Yoshinari said they might return to it in a couple of years.

They're really bad, specially for a two cours show witch packs 3 episodes per volumes instead of 2 like one cour shows.

Just wait for the dub to come out, It'll never leave the Netflix top charts, its borderline /co/ already.

>>156360583
Netflix clearly funded the show, it wouldn't have had 2 cours otherwise.

>still caring about BD sales

Why? It's been stated over and over again that it really doesn't matter for the animation studio and it's not as if shows get cancelled during airing. It's literally nothing more than people comparing fandom e-penis sizes, which is ironic for a board that constantly says "popular =/= good" because it dislikes super mainstream shows which blows out anything /a/ watches or reads in terms of viewership count.

Seriously, is there a single person that can give a solid reason why you pay so much attention to sales?

>>156360509
Honestly they may as well eradicate disc distribution in anime and focus on figures since you can't pirate those (well you can if you buy off the chinese or something but dat quality...)
Or move fully to stuff like netflix or whatever they have there, since you do get big money through more views and adverts there. DVD/BR is pretty ancient by now, and although it should still exist for physical collection purposes it shouldn't be the main indicator of how well a series is doing, and certainly not trying to make a living off of that.

>>156360709

>>156360744

Why not? Compare the amount of merch of the anime that sold 10k+ to the one that sold less than 1k. If there's no demand for BDs, there's probably not going to be demand for merch either.

Hey, at least it didn't flop. V1 sold 3294 which is a decent number.

>>156360849
And it's not even the full week, not to mention it's actually one of the few titles that depends, and is covered on western audience as well.

>>156360737
I agree. I don't know when it started but back in the day we didn't have studio wars daily. People didn't give much of a fuck about a studios or type trash like "x IS FINISHED" every day. Sale threads were usually about the series, not the studio.

Like if Kaiji got poor sales anons got pissed at nippon's shit taste and that was it. Or Fractle "saving anime" getting awful sales and becoming a joke.

I think /v/'s mentality is to blame.

9 was only legit bad LWA episode though

>>156360885

It might not matter in terms of profit, but it does matter in terms of reputation. Kiznaiver was a flop too so they're coming from a failure into another. It's not enough to put them out of business, but it adds up.

Not sure where you get that, since 40% of Trigger staff isn't even working on the show, and are busy with the preproduction of another show that maybe will air next year.
LWA had relatively low priority.

Okay let's break it down. Did it engulf? No it got a general. That's pretty normal. It might have looked more engulfy because it spilt into other boards but so did oreimo, can't understand why I'm not popular and umaru.
Was it /a/? Well given the spillage no. There were fucking TONNES of both off siters and cross boarders. Traffic wasn't down any where else. It was just up in KLK. /a/ was no more into it than anything else. /v/ MAL and tumblr were all OVER that shit though.

Wrong.

Susho stated that not only KLK's production was hell, they were lacking enough people. Yoshinari had to animate most of the first opening and send the Anime Mirai rookies right after they finished LWA's OVA to help them.

>>156361573

>>156361427
>There were fucking TONNES of both off siters and cross boarders
>/a/ was no more into it than anything else.

Here it is the same excuse saying it wasn't really popular on /a/ because all posts about it were from crossboarders and redditfags. Bullshit, can you even remember the shows that aired alongside it that gained as much atterntion? Samurai Flamenco got a few but nowhere near what KLK has done to this board during its airing time, on airing day it was a mess shitstorm regardless of episode quality, it filled the entire catalog.

Cut the crap. You don't like it? that's fine, but don't pretend no one gave a fuck about it or that it wasn't special back then. There were so many threads and posts it was nearly impossible to keep track of them all.

>>156361571

Agreed

And it disgusts me that people actually ship them. Its so vanilla its fucking disgusting. Especially when Diana is the absolute worst taste in girls.

And its unforgivable how Akko is a lot stupider than her OVA counterpart - her OVA counterpart could already fly a broom, but her TV counterpart can't.

The show has some redeeming qualities though, but even those aren't perfect. Like Sucy.

I'm still watching it, but I am really disappointed. My only hope is that it has a good finale and outdoes Madoka. somehow

>>156361683

I can't really understand why. Despite having watched the whole thing. I'll brush it off that "it's cute", but that's it.

>>156361665
I'm not saying there weren't any crossboarders because that shit was pretty clear by just looking at the threads, but again that doesn't mean most of it was crossboarders. Stop looking at things as black and white. /a/ liked it, other sites liked it as well. There's no need to "clear /a/'s name" by saying it wasn't loved here during its airing time. I ask again, do you remember any show that aired alongside it that gained any attention? because at the time KLK took over the entire board, crossboarders or not, /a/ regulars were also talking about it and have been since its announcement, even before others latched into it.

The real question is why it did well because of the aniamtion. The animation is the real turn off, but the story, and I'm not joking, is really good. Granted, a good story for a kids show, but still good.

>>156359938
I'be been saying this for a while but TRIGGERfags refuse to listen to different opinions. LWA is unsustainable in a longer format. The Kickstarted second OVA was inferior to the original short. This series in turn is inferior to both OVAs. In short, LWA should have been a one and done. However, TRIGGER is desperate for success and finding a way to sustain the studio.

Yeah, she "died".

Ever since the Q&A with the producer i've had the feeling that the tv series will be different from the LWA OVA that i know and love, it seems like they're purposely trying to alienate the existing fanbase, and pandering to other demographics, well good for them i guess

and i actually drop this at episode 6, and judging from the BD sales and the thread, it seems that i'm not missing much

The entirety of that show was a patchwork monstrosity of mahou shoujo and henshin superhero cliches pretending to be ironic but actually being serious and the ending was a direct ripoff of Sonic Adventure 2. How anyone can look back on that piece of shit and see anything but a total dumpster fire is mind boggling.

I'd rather stay here than in that piece of shit thread.

I'm pretty finished with Trigger. I'm tired of shows starting out strong and failing because Trigger just refuses to have good writers. They barely have good animators. Trigger shows are not for anime fans, they are for cross boarding drooling retards and these threads have proven it in spades.

That show is cartoon animals or actual animals. Kemono Friends is animals turn into humans. GIJINKA. Thats what it is.

Its why I'm very open to the possibilities KF can bring if it it gets bigger. And I mean BIGGER. It could happen

Also that that other show is not bleak - KF is pretty bleak on what happened to Humanity

Trigger should stick to short format things like Inferno Cop and Luluco.

>seemingly bleak setting

But I admit that I should have elaborated more

>>156359938

I was really looking forward to LWA. I'm crazy about magic and witches and this seemed like everything I ever wanted.

They fucked up so hard it's ridiculous. Show is boring and badly written. Akko is annoying. The entire theme of magic dying and the stupid stone is just insulting. Most of the characters are personality less walking memes.

>>156362118
Because YOU and other kids enjoyed it?
On the other hand, LWA is possibly their biggest financial success yet.

I still follow LWA to the latest ep, but not because I enjoy it and more because I fucking love the OVA and I just hope the end will deliver the characters I love in the OVA justice.

I think partially because of my love for the OVA it's been a fucking chore drag myself through the weeks when all of the girls get little to none development bar Akko. Diana is but a shadow of her OVA self and team B may as well not exist. Lucy and Lotte got reduced to sidekick status, and not that they weren't in the OVA but at least with 25 ep I had hoped Trigger would flesh out them more.

LWA should be renamed as The Akko Show.

Disc sales are shit. Fanart barely exists in Japan. There is no merch.

It'll probably peak above 4k, that's a pretty good number compared to most shows.
It was already crowdfunded beforehand, and relies a lot of western market where it has exceptional coverage.

>>156362237

Actually, spot-on observation, My Little Newfag.

>>156362218
As of this point my entire perception of the show will depend on how the ending resolves. Yoshinari promises great thing but looking back at the past episodes I really suspect it's gonna be another case of Akko the Chosen One solves everything by herself while others watch and cheer her on.

Can only hope and pray now.

Nigga, I actually like LWA. I actually set my expectations low right now. KF taught me that, and if that lesson worked for KF, than it works for me with LWA. I'm not expecting greatness, I'm just hoping the show to remain mediocre, as it is right now.

No, what will really, REALLY make me drop LWA is if it does some stupid shit. ANd I'm taking Episode 11 of Samurai Flamenco kind of stupid shit - where, one episode after a good finale to part 1, they pull off a fucking super sentai shit out of their fucking asses. I'm amazed I kept watching Samumenco after that (Episode 18 redeemed the show as a whole)

LWA has yet to do that - the worst it did was Episode 9, aka the pirate episode, but even that episode was just pointless fluff at best. I'm talking really bad animation, incongruous tone, and a complete BS out of the ass kind of shark jumping that will make me drop LWA.

On and unrelated note - I'm also sticking to LWA because it is a mahou shoujo series I actually like. I tried most of the genre, and the alst show that actually made me care was Madoka. But I found even that flawed. I still have hopes for LWA, but, so ar, only the OVA seems up to par.

Wrong, Inou Battle is the only decent show Trigger has made, Kill la Kill and Little Witch Academia are garbage and the OVAs are garbage,too. The only thing they had going for them were animation quality and it pains me that there are so many fucking crazies that can't see it. Akko,Lotte and Sucy were bland as shit in the first one, the second one was worse because Akko became a bitch, Lotte and Sucy were barely there and the B team added nothing, the biggest complaints were lack of Diana and those fucking kids going out of their way to make life harder for the witches.

It's no wonder Trigger wants to be like Kyoani, Kyoani has ass lickers far far louder than triggerfags.

Also, even a fucking samurai flamenco get a netflix streaming services,

To be fair, there is little to care about sale when the committee already paid the studio full front. The majority of the profit will go back to the committee, and if there is any loss they will also have shoulder.

This is not completely true, KLK 1st week sales for 1st volume is around 9k~ish, it eventually managed to reach LTD sales 12/13k, while it have a better ratio than normal anime, it was because they're understocked, people have had to wait before they can preorder the BDs

It had so much potential, what went wrong ;_;?

>well made

No one of you bought BD anyway

>>156363746
I think the special thing about Flip Flappers is that the creators and animators know that the show was loved despite the sales.

Then again, this is from an outsider point of view. That's pretty mmuch he impression it gave me.

>>156363807
TV series was a fucking mistake. Look at how badly they mismanaged the 2nd ova cast. We are at ep16 already and we barely have any eps with Amanda, Constanza and friends. Instead we got stuck with akko and some shitty 7words quest.

>>156361803
>Meanwhile most of Japan, even non-otaku, are more interested in KF
Because it's how trends works in Japan. No one gives a fuck about KF. They cares about "trend"

>>156363807
I guess since they were making it for more of a western taste, they played it safe tried to make it easy to digest and tossed together lots of popular western works.

>>156363807
Isn't LWA is more passion style project? Production Committee probably don't even cares.

>>156363863
A bunch of fags here contributed to the OVA kickstarter. They probably bought BDs too, so it should be even lower if you don't count outlier western sales.

>It was a nice break from the usuaL
>Literally the same fucking gimmick as most fucking moe show with a different gimmick

Japan...is just bored. I now understand why Your Name was such a big hit despite being mediocre as hell.
>>156361892
>humanized versions of endangered animals
Nothing new
>moeblob anime, but doesn't pander to otaku
Its biggest audience are otaku
>lack of abrupt sexualization
KEK
>can be surprisngly kid-friendly, so a show otaku may show to kids (if they have or know any)
That goes for most otaku laden shows. Did you forget K-ON! was a big mainstream hit that aired on the Disney Channel?
>back to the first points - leaves room as to what other animals could look like
Okay? What the fuck does that have to do with anything?
>seemingly bleak setting juxtaposed with themes of happines, friendship, loyalty and co-operation
See above
>dat fucking finale
Wow...its fucking nothing

So its just a meme show like every Ishidate anime ( gdgd Fairies) only the people who like KF actually take it seriously.

>How many kids show have a character die from being eaten by a giant fucking monster?
Quite a few

>>156359938
>What went wrong?
I loved the OVAS but the Anime has been shit so far to be honest. Maybe its because its a kids show like Trigger said

>>156364035
>They probably bought BDs too
I don't. Movie/OVA = okay. But buying high priced BD with two episodes? Nope

>>156364117
Nothing can save LWA. Anime is just business and LWA was doomed since beginning.

>>156359938
Good

What happened? What with all the suddent hate for the show? I mean, i know its garbage but usually this threads defend LWA but now everyone agrees on it being shit. Did a summary came out or something?

>>156359938
I hated KLK, Kiznaiver, Ninja Slayer and thought LUluco and that show about demon girls were mediocre. Why the fuck did i had hope for LWA to begin with? Only thing Trigger is good for is the animation

>>156364117
>Maybe its because its a kids show like Trigger said
Watch some actual shows for kids, they are some of best works in the industry.

>>156364240

Just the usual 4chan hate.

Everyone else outside 4chan thinks TV LWA is a good anime show.

I suggest get out from here for a while

>>156364240
Same happened with KLK: It got popular, so that means it has to be disliked.

>>156364240
Go to the actual LWA thread if you want people desperately defending LWA series's glaring flaws.

>>156364338
Like where?

>>156364394

If i point it out, i gonna get banned.

You know where it is

And no, its not just only "That" website.

>>156364447
So nevermind then.

>>156364338
>Everyone else outside 4chan thinks TV LWA is a good anime show.

This is something I've noticed, I even found people pointing the flaws in of certain episode, yet still enyoing the show.

>>156359938
That's not too bad

>>156364496

4chan always exaggerate everything, especially hate.

I hope I'm not the only one here who genuinely support this show by importing BD

>>156364338
Thanks for confirming that the LWA threads are full of cancerous people not from here.

>>156364597
Nothing like paying crazy sums to then not even get a real disc case.

>>156364597
I will buy mine soon. I couldn't preorder in time.

Still I'm pretty jealous you have Chariot's card already.

IMHO the problem with LWA is, that the story is not consistent, every episode is mostly unrelated to the episodes before it (even without considering the animation or episode 9 or shit like that),it feels like you are watching a full season of fillers.

>>156364610

You're welcome.

We are the good kind of cancer, not shit cancer like you know what.

>>156364649

>Never watch episodic anime

I suggest start with Mushishi, and then Planetes

>>156364652
Man fuck off to reddit

>>156361796
I forgot that characters expressing emotions is a flaw nowadays, it's true that Texhnolyze is sooo much better with its overly serious men in suits that can only grunt, mumble or shout. Or SEL with its MC that could've been replaced by a stool and it wouldn't have changed anything at all.

God forbid characters that have a personality through which the events happening in the show are filtered, how dare ABe put actual EMOTIONS (brrrr) in the characters he wrote, how dare a drama anime have... actual drama in it? Bad ABe, bad. And if you think Haibane Renmei's narrative is as simplistic as that, you're just fooling yourself.

>the cards are huge

That's cool as fuck.
I don't see the points in BDs to be honest, I only want them for the goodies they come with, like keyframe and storyboard books, and even then I'd much rather get those as a seperate release. I hope LWA will get some artbooks. Already got Akko's nendoroid on preorder, but I want to support it more.

If the show doesn't get more merch then I guess I'm hoping for Trigger to open that Patreon account to some money their way.
