How comes Droners never got more popular?
>>153463016It was a cute show, but didn't really have that extra sauce like Wakfu or Oban Star Racers.In order to make a good show catch on, you need something that sticks with your target audience - for children, that is usually a cool premise with an element that is slightly above their age rating, like hot chicks, violence/insanity or a more ambitious story.
>>153463016It's kinda boring and primarily feels like an ad for merch that does not exist. Certainly suffers from the Oban comparison.Only reason people remember it is the top tier character designs, and these days every other french series pitch uses those designers so you're not lacking in alternatives
>>153463128Also for whathever reason *those* fanartists latched on Mouse rather than superior design Corto or any of other other teams' cuties so mostly boring fanarts
>>153463016Any non American show has to fight an uphill battle with distribution.
>>153463142idk why they latched on mouse either, corto has baggy pants so you get stuff like pic attached
Because drones are still ass fucking expensive and the people who seem to be even slightly in to the "hobby" always seem to be weird and creepy as fuck.
>>153463172I meant the show anon, this isn't /g/
>>153463154kinda true, isn't really on any US streaming service and best quality you can get on youtube is 480p (with french subs)
>>153463016>It's not from Japan>Doesn't have over the top fight scene If Lastman and Wakfu didn't become popular in the US nothing will
>>153463016Poor distribution. It's one of those shows I never heard of until it showed up on a steaming site.It's also slightly repetitive. They'll run the same track 2 or 3 times which limits some of the story potential.
>>153463319>until it showed up on a streaming serviceThat's the problem, no service currently carries the show in the US, and best quality on youtube is 480p as stated before
>>153463331and i somewhat doubt its ability to end up on a streaming service in future , disappointing since it's a decent show
>>153463184That's why anon.>Make show about drones>Drones are fucking expensive so kids aren't in to it because they don't have access to it.>people who are in to drones are weird and creepy so no one wants to watch a show about them.
>>153463016I always wanted to see this artstyle in a more mature violent show like Primal.
>>153463305>Lastman>WakfuCame out before the COVID-era anime boom with normalfags. I've met more people that jerked off to Zone's porn parody than actually watched Wakfu.
>>153463016even if all French shows are always of much better quality than burger beanmouth shit they need an extra spark of originality to compensate for the lack of marketing.
>>153463128They almost had actual drones but it looks like something went wrong during production.
>>153463154Pretty much. French shows like this one and others who don't have a consistent and reliable dubbing or at least subbing going on are pretty much dead in the water.
>>153467162doesn't look too bad from what i've seen, shame it never went anywhere
>>153463331Season 1 was on Pluto last time I checked.
>>153467363They got rid of it a few months ago.
>>153467432they did, just double checked
