Short of winning a meaningful newcomer award, which MIGHT earn a mangaka an opportunity with a big publisher, doujinshi (usually erodoujin) is THE inroad into the manga industry. It allows amateur mangaka to flex their artistic ability in a more prolific way than any other. And in an industry that is increasingly based on light novel adaptations, proving oneself as a capable artist who can draw waifus is about as reliable of a way to be recognized as one can possibly hope for. So yeah. It's the golden ticket.
>>
>>284186411
Japan has extremely strict copyright law. In theory, every piece of fanart is a copyright violation. The publishers tolerate it only because they're (amazingly) not stupid enough to bite the hand that feeds them.
But it has happened before that companies cracked down on fanart, especially lewd fanart, that they didn't like. They can simply report them to the police and sue them.

>The publishers tolerate it only because they're (amazingly) not stupid enough to bite the hand that feeds them.
To piggyback off this: it can't be emphasized enough how many product mangaka began their careers by writing/illustrating doujinshi. They run the risk of severely pissing off a lot of prominent, respected artists should they choose to come down to hard on doujin authors. It's an intimate part of otaku culture that for many beloved mangaka dates all the way back to their middle school club activities. There's just no reason to poke that beehive unless there are extremely factors at play (read: a fucking lunatic retard sending hardcore guro of a character based on a real horse to the literal owner of that horse).

Not much to explain. Some sick fuck drew guro of one of the horse girls (I have no idea which one) and sent it to the owner of that horse. It's commonly believed that the incident led to Cygames putting their foot down with regards to Uma Musume R34 because the owner was understandably enraged by the depravity that he witnessed.

I don't particularly have a horse in this race either way. But aside from the ones being propped up like idols by fucked up agencies, I really don't see a problem with jpeg streamers. It's just so... inoffensive. And even the ones who are with those agencies are the ones getting fucked over as opposed to the people who like them. And even if their fans ARE getting fucked over: who cares? Idol otaku are the worst kind of scum. They deserve it. But why should I be bothered by people streaming with an anime avatar? Seems more pragmatic than using their real face at least.

They were threats from a schizo, but Cygames was zero-tolerance about it. If the schizo actually pulled the trigger, Seiun Sky and Nishino Flower's owner would've pulled out like King Kamehameha's.

What happened with King Kamehameha's owner is why Cygames went scorched earth on the schizo in the first place.

It's all the same shit. Divesting sexless otaku men of their money by throwing increasingly focus tested cute girls at them is the bread and butter of the doujin game. At least since the fujos who built the doujin scene got cucked out of it in the 80s with the lolicon boom.

Vtubers and gacha whores are the end product of a market that's existed longer than you've been alive. Don't call it a grave, it's the future you chose.

"Anti-social emotional manipulation" is what they called media for male otaku in the 80s. Strip mahjong games were sold with cute girl art back then too. Unless you are GAINAX from 1985-1991, TRIGGER crowdfunding LWA, or maybe Yuasa founding Science SARU, if you're in the industry, you are working for soulless corporate forces.

The only meaningful difference between you and a Vtumor stan or a gachaslop pig is you're more likely to have English as your first language.

There are notes out there that count by genre code, but that only gives you a narrow view of what actually goes on at Comiket because it requires that the organization cordons off a separate section for those circles. There are tens of thousands of circles participating each year, lots of them draw Pokemon, Nier, Kemofure, anthologies of their own donut steels, historical and statistical accounts that they wanted to publish themselves, whatever else you can think of. But that'd take effort to count and the people that make these infographics just want cheap engagement and an easy narrative to sell.

Comiket, as just one example, started out back in the mid 70s. You're confusing those fujos with the ones that broke off to make separate venues like Comitia (which WERE actually predominantly female in their early days, partially as reaction to male focused comic markets that started popping up around Japan in the 70s/80s). There are ebbs and flows here that you're rewriting.

The only way gacha spreads an IP is as a virus or disease spreads itself. Gacha doesn't produce good anime, videogames, or anything truly remarkable because is a product with the only intention to exploit fans and turn them into soulless paypiggies. Gacha is known to kill already established franchises, look at Fate for example. Oh yes, and bring on a shit ton of cuckshit doujin to the IP. For some reason cuckolds love gacha. Is that the kind of spread you're talking about sure gacha provides it.

Its hard to overstate how important things like comiket and doujins are to the success of anime and manga as an industry. These indie works are the lifeblood that keep new ideas and new stories flowing into the medium, without a thriving indie scene Anime would fall into the same top-down corporate hellscape that western animation did.

The issue is gameplay hasschizophrenic identity.

I think of vtubers as the idols of 2010. Back in 2010, groups like AKB48 were very popular, but I never really saw the appeal of 3DPD until I browsed /jp/ idol threads, then quickly realized it was all schizo posting and 3DPD drama.

Then in late 2015 and early 2016, I started watching vtubers almost religiously (when 100% of them were Japanese only), and I later, many years later, realized it’s the same 3DPD drama, and even worse as you’re paying an ewhore instead of a proper idol (groups like Hololive fall into the idol category, but it’s still the same 3DPD shit).

Touhou is almost 30 years old, the fact that it's still a top performer and fan favorite with close to 600 doujin circles is astounding, and a testament to how resilient fans are and how much staying power it has as new things like gacha waifuslop come and go. Similar story with Gundam.

Anybody who disagrees is insane.

>>284200563
Jack predates FGO. The modern weird weeb design philosophy is most notable in FGO. Very weird overdesigned outfit that have no resemblance to real life. Moder Yugioh (also with a lot of waifubait nowadays) is also like that. I wouldn't say that anime designs were realistic in the past but they were a lot more grounded. I think Siegfried's and Karna's were some of the worst early examples.

I never played that shitty game for plethora of ideological reasons, so I don't exactly keep track of all its characters but I think it would be logical that newer charas are more overdesigned. It's the simplest way to make them more distinctive, it only gets tougher with time to create simple but memorable designs.

Jack, Karna and Siegfried are from Fate Apocrypha a LN. Fate Extra also had many overdesigned designs. FGO took Extra's philosophy and sometimes made it worse.

What do you mean? This is nothing compare to the average overdesigned chinkshit like AK, genshin, starrail

Nips generally bow before any guidelines that companies put out, and Umamusume in particular had an incident where one of the horse owners almost pulled his horses from the game because the fans sent him a bunch of gore of his horse. It's not really yakuza, just general fear that going overboard will get the game closed or at least many things pulled from it.

You want to enforce a retarded rule that basically says "copyright holders need to sue more often"? You're want to tell companies to sue even more stuff? Thats stupid.
>>
>>284189785
Not exactly a myth, it sounds like a confusion of two different applications of IP laws, copyright and trademark. Trademark laws do have a built-in expectation that a holder has to demonstrate "use" of their trademark, which can include defending it in court against egregious violations.
People often get confused between trademark and copyright when you have something where both could be applied, particularly fictional characters which can have their name and/or likeness trademarked. In Nintendo's case they have an array of Super Mario Bros. related trademarks, although they don't have one just for the name "Mario".

5 mil a month on mobile only isn't bad for a 2d game.
Of course they also have their big months too where they go into the 8 figures like most successful games do.

Unless they don't take a cut of merch, I dunno.

The fujo was still a premier force in the comiket until the late 2000's.
At one point there were 3000 doujins about prince of tennis in comiket 2003, that means 1 in 10 books were fujo material. It was really a lack of a strong fujo mainstream series the reason why their numbers ar dwindling in comiket.

I watched Kizuna Ai's debut "live", streaming wasn't a thing yet but I did watch her video the same day she uploaded it as it was recommended on my feed. She uploaded almost daily and I watched all of it so YT also recommended me Siro and Tokino Sora not too long after Kizuna.

I think I stopped watching vtubers in late 2020, western vtubers just made the space unbearable and somehow it just kept getting worse.

With Gakuen and other iM@S branches still active in Comiket (namely Cinderella Girls, Million Live and Shiny Colors), plus the two main groups of LL! gone, is there really any chance of LL! to outperform iM@S in the field of Comiket numbers in the near future?
The fans of LL! can boast their Oricon numbers and the music sales, but they should know by now that their franchise is not as mighty as they once were. The SIF2 Fiasco is a proof of it.

I find it so funny that Azur Lane barely has a fourth of the number of doujins that Kantai Collection does, despite how much Azur Lane sells itself on sex appeal (especially in the last 2-3 years with how borderline pornographic a lot of the newer skins are).
That's what happens when you choose to keep adding in like dozens and dozens of new characters with barely any memorable designs and even less in the way in terms of personality.
You look at Danbooru or Pixiv (with AIslop removed from your search results), and you'll notice that most new Azur Lane fanart is for the earlier (year 1-3) girls. The new girls barely get any fanart in comparison. A new rainbow rarity girl would be lucky to even get 100 pieces of fanart within a year.
It's sad.
