Japan. If your profits are based on merchandising, you need to stretch your legs whenever something catches on outside of the obsessive fan market. They're letting middlemen like Funimation and Crunchyroll reap the rewards of distributing their work to an audience unaware they aren't supporting the industry. You don't expand the market with shitty dubs airing at 2AM on the Toonami block. There are suckers literally all around the world waiting to buy your shit, they just don't know they want it yet.

No it isn't, anime sales have been in the toilet recently. Pretty much only one show a season breaks 10k nowadays.

Having all the money go to the distributors rather than the animation studios.

nips not knowing how to make enough money off anime

You are living under a rock if you think DVD and BD sales mean anything nowadays kid alternative merchandise is at its peak now and there are plenty of series that live with just said merchandise pretty much anything sunrise/bandai fits that category as an example.

Japanese economy making it too expensive for the average japanese person to buy more than 1 or 2 shows per season.

Dvd/BD Media sales haven't been the main source of income for the industry for the past decade. You are basing your asumptions on an obsolete model.

I hear the Google+ anime scene is hip and happening, yeah.

Not an argument.

Western feminists to be exact, but their cries fall on deaf ears in Japan.

Isekai

The culture of the really young and inexperienced being the source of the bulk of the adaptations. Also the work culture in Japan don't allow truly worldly viewpoints. LN is shallow iterations on shallow iterations.

The fan service bullshit and all the high school nonsense, cant even tell some apart from others.

>>160528568
RIght. The ones who have no effect on anime. I wish I had a boogeyman to jump at.

>>160528016
Too many productions.
