Are you ready for jap anime slop to take over cinema?
>slopthe west wishes it could create series like the japs.
>>215521254They’ve been soft launching this shit for years. I knew it was over when I saw the Tolkien estate allowed Amazon to make a LOTR anime.
>>215521254Ready? it's been happening for years nigga
>>215521254Hopefully. I don't watch anime at all because I hate the troops, but the Japanese aren't pozzed and kike'd yet.
>>215521309Tolkiens grandkids or great grandkids will agree to anything. the hobbit's copyright is up in 2032 and all 3 LotR books are 2049 and 2050 so expect a bunch of sloppa while the sloppa is good
>>215521309Lord of the Rings deserves a good adaptation. I wouldn't expect it to be good but it can't be worse than what there already is.
>>215521440Kys, the Peter Jackson adaptations are pretty much the best movie adaptation you can realistically imagine
Yes. Frankly I am baffled it took the japs this long to conclude that there exist gorillions of anime fans outside their islands that are happy to fork over money for their products. Considering the cheap animating cost, there things are bound to turn up huge profits. Seriously they shit out animated films at like 3-10% percentage of the production budgets of disney or pixar and it took them all this time to realize that maybe they could be competive in the international film market.
>>215521535Plus the Japanese economy is in the shit so money from the West is more valuable.Here's the value of dollar/yen over 5 years
>>215521254>80% from JapanNope. That shit remains niche except for the one anime that made like 600m this year
I'm just waiting for Walpurgisnacht Rising.
>>215521585Even that other anime that made $600M, nearly all of its revenue came from Asia by at least 85% with Japan making up majority of it while the West only made up 15%. You can even look at the performance and see it dropped by 75% in its second week, fans came but mainstream never did. So it's also a niche.
mappa would undisputed goats if they somehow make csm part 2 into a coherent storyhigh chance they'll just drop it
>>2155213091977?
>>215521700Even so it made 130m in the US alone. That's something that not many american movies manage today.
>>215521254And you're realising this just now?Also didn't demonslayer made more than fucking superman?? It was 550mil I remember with a budget of 14mil.... Wtf (not complaining tho infinity castle was PEAK)
>>215521254If this movie couldn't topped Predator, it's a flopped.
How long until jews get their hands in and ruin it forever, for anime and themselves?
THE SECOND NUKE HAS BEEN LAUNCHEDI REPEATTHE SECOND NUKE ALREADY HIT USAEMPEROR TRUMPOHITO ALREADY TO DELCARE SURRENDER TO JAPAN
>>215521254doesn't Anime suffer from woke slop too?why else would Tranime wokiez watch it?
>>215521254Cinema is dead Jim.Anime is the only Hope now.
>>215521254Tariffs will fix this.
>>215521440this.fucking this.>>215521461you're gay.
Come to think of it, I've only been to the cinema like 4 times this year and 2 of them were for anime. Gundam GQX and Chainsaw-man.
Japan is the greatest country on earth. Genocide Koreans and Chinese
>>215521309Didn't that tank? I think that was made solely to fulfill a contractual obligation and let them keep the rights to LOTR adaptations
>>215521733I think there's a world where you take real creative liberties with Part 2 to make it work, and not feel like something that was being made up week to week. There's a decent romance buried in there if you excise all the shit Fujimoto piled on that ultimately doesn't really matter
>>215521254Must make the Koreans seethe so badly hehe
>>215521254Go back to /a/
>>215522658They've been trying to infect the localization teams, moderately succeeding in some form, and also trying to make anime/manga more (((inclusive))) with consultation groups just like they've been doing for vidya, but this part has proved to be a bit harder to subvert since the industry still aims to target the Japanese fans first, unlike jap vidya which has abandoned the local market almost entirely.
>>215521590based trump
>>215521333When did anime became a mainstream? It did not happened 15 years ago.
>>215523803Spirited Away.
>>215521292Anime has been unwatchable garbage for 20 years
>>215521254I don't understand why they didn't make a sequel to Akira, they didn't even make half of the manga it in the cinema
>>215522697That's normal for anime movies. They're frontloaded by fans who show up for opening day and make the most money on opening day followed by a steep decline. Anime fans are extremely good at showing up early.
>>215523920Most of the manga was written years after the movie as an alternate take on the premise. So it's not like they cut the manga short to adapt it in one movie.
>>215521535>>215521576still not really any way to support the anime industry besides overpriced bds, crunchyroll (which sucks) and anime films like this. piracy is still ultimately the only sane way to consume the vast majority of anime in the west and that is unlikely to change anytime soon.
>$4.1M budgetThis shit is literally based on one online Japanese articleAnd the article doesn't even say the budget is 4.1MThe point of that article was to explain ''Box Office to Break Even'' and it just says ''if the production cost is about ¥600 Million ($4.1 Million) and the advertising cost is about ¥250 Million ($1.7 Million), the movie needs ¥2.15 Billion ($14.7 Million) to break even''The miscommunication between English and Japanese online is insane
really shitty series. you can fool someone into thinking this is a tumblr comic made by an american transexual
But /a/ told me this was a flop supposedly??
>>215524091i haven't been to /a/ regularly in 13 years. what has changed? aren't there more people into shounen there now supposedly and not just little girl slice of life?
>>215521254HAHAHAHA So much for "dude chainsaw man is massive!!" I told you faggots this series is pushed by mouthbreathing redditor types
>>215524091/a/ is full of bitter shut ins who are desperate for everything to fail
>>215521440>>215523044Being contrarian isnt a personality
>>215524184so identical to /tv/ and /v/.
>>215523997Indian article. What did you expect? The jeet crunchyroll ceo wants to use these films as prove that his tenure has made anime mainstream and that to keep growing animation and studios should move to japan.
>>215524184Nah, this shit was pushed as "western anime" by trannies and low iq monkeys. The anime bombed and killed all hype. This movie is a panic attempt at re-doing that mistake
>>215524222>bombedThe movie just made 20x it's budget back within 2 weeks
>>215524207*Should move from japan to indiaSorry
>>215524222>Nah, this shit was pushed as "western anime" by trannies and low iq monkeys. what a strange post.
>>215524184It's fun to bully you csmtrannies. Literal redditors
>>215521254Infinity Castle has already taken nearly $700mn worldwide on a tiny budget.If they make JJK Shibuya Showdown into a movie that'll clean up as well.
>>215524229That's not its budget, and its not very impressive. Good on you if you like it, but the media shilled this one way harder than demon slayer. I can't open up facebook or x without Imax or ads showing black people making reaction faces to watch it
>Budget: 150-200m>Box office: 154mJesus Christ what's wrong with Disney?
>>215524235It's true. Csm redditors literally have been screaming that it's a "western" and "Subversive" anime for years
>>215524235It was though. Mappa/crunchyroll even got the breadtube anime youtubers to cover it. T. Know nip and have worked in translation
>>215524242>a series is successful and popular>paint any and all success as redditors and trannies enjoying itwhat causes this autism in particular? why does people liking things you don't like make you act like this? i thought /a/ mods were pretty strict about this flavor of third world shitposting not being allowed. at least they used to be.
>>215524278Midwits believe disliking something makes you smarter than the people who like it
>>215524271>>215524276i haven't seen anything you're talking about here and i haven't been to /a/ in years. if anything demon slayer has had a lot more discussion on the western boards. almost nobody cares about chainsaw man on /tv/ and /co/.
It's budget is around 85$ million and they banked on international market and it sputtered out.
>>215524302>It's budget is around 85$ millionSource?
Most of the box office is korean. Nobody cares
slavnigger waifu :)
>>215524222>western animeYou know that anime originated in the West, right? Anime was born when Japan became Westernized and was influenced by Disney.
>>215524296Yeah on /a/ csm fags were insufferable for years until the anime and part 2 flopped
>>215524473damn. good thing i don't let others affect whether or not i enjoy something since i have a functional brain.
>>215523883give 1 example of watchable anime
>>215524252seethe troon
>>215523803Attack On Titan
>>215524506Noo you must adjust your tastes based upon what reddit or mainstream audiences think
>>215524553i mean the dude seething itt seems to be the only one obsessed with reddit.
>>215521254Demon Slayer
>anglosphere media is 99% garbage now>let's watch asian children's cartoons with cookiecutter plots and terrible voice acting insteadWeebs are no better than capeshit fags
never ask a CSM what's the point of the anime
bomb devil was very sexy
>>215521535fairly successful shonen series adapting a movie with canon material isn't something they can just do everyday
i see /a/ has schizophrenic thread ruining obsessed no lifers nowadays just like every other board.
>>215524421SAAAAR
>>215523883GUESS WHATthat anime unwatchable garbage is more profitable than western unwatchable garbageSOthere's someone who's actually wrong BECAUSE people are paying to watch the allegedly unwatchable garbage
>>215524184Lmao /a/ is literally all shonen obsessed normies and turd worlders nowadays, long past are the days when it was all shut ins obsessed with sol cute girl shows.
The only lesson I am getting from this is ... that /a/ is the wealthiest board
>>215521254Yes, I unironically prefer it to hollyjew slop.
>>215521576Holy kek you actually believe that the health of a country's economy is measured by the value of its currency against the dollar? Holy kek that's hilariously ignorant and retarded
>>215521254I guess it proves that Americans still watch movies in theatres.
>>215525761Yes, US dollar is the base currency for world transactions. If your currency is worth 50% less than 5 years ago then guess what? Everything you import costs 50% more
>>215525862Kek economiclets are hilarious
>>215525893I'm sorry that you have no idea what you're talking about
>>215525621>bro didn't outgrow his little girl slice of life phaseso how is your transition going?
fire punch sucks asschainsaw man sucks assmodern manga sucks fucking ass>bro wouldn't it be so subversive if like ANYBODY could die??? let's kill half our characters every 30 chapters, it would be so COOL and UNEXPECTEDcan't think of a story 2 steps a head so just kill everybody and start over
>>215525901I mean you are the one who thinks that the health of an economy is measured by the value of a currency against the dollar lmao
>>215525912>NOOOOOOO STORIES MUST LAST FOREVER AND NOBODY CAN EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER DIE BECAUSE WHAT IF THEY'RE SOMEONE'S HECKIN' COMFORT CHARACTER>EVERY SERIES SHOULD BE LIKE WAN PISU AND DBZyou're mentally 12.
>>215525910nice reading comprehension retard, where did I say either one was good?
>>215525933I've explained why, i'm sorry if the concept of international trade upsets you anon
>>215525964That's not how you measure the health of an economy, ever wondered why the US forced Japan to appreciate their currency with the plaza accord in the 80s and that caused the japanese economy to go to shit? The golden age of japanese growth and prosperity had a very weak Yen, it made the US very mad so they had to stop it.Ever wondered why the US gets mad at china for pegging its currency at allegedly too low levels and accuses them of currency manipulation?
Just give it a try, this was the best movie of the year so far, if you love cinema you will probably like thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3UH_9ZV1-A
>>215521254>More than 50% of its revenue stems from Japan>>215524251>more than 85% of its revenue comes from Asia with Japan making up the majority of its profitsFUCK OFF WEEBS
>>215526021>stealing japanese population productivity making japanese CB to fund american economy>so people from japan work >60 hours/week to be taxed and fuel america retard spending>wanna try to do the same with china>china says nope>try to hurt chine: China is failing. Two more weeks and it's over for Xi>potus cave>xi stronger than ever >>21552618918M from anime is not bad
>>215521254I'm happy there are other movies making money that aren't typical hollywood blockbusters, even if I have no interest in them. in a perfect world this would signal "maybe we should try things that aren't reboots and capeshit" to the jews but in reality they will just invest in gook production companies.
>>215524188being a sheep neither.
>>215525912>>215525962You both watch cartoons for manchildren, go watch an actual movie instead.
>>215521292arcane BTFOs this and they didn't even try
>>215525758Trannywaw Man is based on hollyjew slop
>>215528023Trvke nvke, real men watch movies, like Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers and Son of the Mask
>>215523803>It did not happened 15 years ago.you're right it was 30 years
>>215521254Realistically, we're just going to get terrible live-action anime adaptations, and disney-like anime-inspired animations that completely miss the point because they can't understand the idea of an animation having blood/mature themes.
>>215521535The story I've heard a lot of times is that in the 90s and 00s, they literally didn't care about markets outside of Japan. So they'd license these shows away for basically no money and not care at all if they were butchered. Hence funimation and 4kids
>>215529747>we're just going to get terrible live-action anime adaptationsyeah OP jewflix is dogshit and i hope the last one to ever come out
>>215521309They tried to bypass the Japs by going to the Korean outsourcing companies directly, but all the series they make look like shit. I will really hate it when Hollywood money fully conquers Japan. Its a miracle its taken this long.
>>215521535Usually it isn't worth it. Chainsaw Man is a rare example of an anime that is probably more popular outside of Japan than inside of it.
>>2155238032 separate movements.>Gradually from ~1998 to 2006Programs like Pokemon, Dragonball Z, Yu-Gi-Oh and Gundam Wing introduced anime to millions of impressionable kids. These kids then grew up with a soft spot for it.>Aggressively between ~2012 to 2016Shows like Kill La Kill specially (and older things like Death Note) were in the centre of online nerd """culture""" (arguably because all the kids from above had grown up) and talked about so frequently that anime basically rode the coattails of nerd culture itself becoming mainstream.
>>215525862Japan is an industrial export economy. Weak currency is good for those economies because they made exports more competitive. Japan's issue for the last 30 years has been that China and Korea and Taiwan all are able to undercut it on the export market. This devaluation is not necessarily going to lead to Japan seeing economic rebirth, but it also isn't a death knell.
>>215529825>Chainsaw Man is a rare example of an anime that is probably more popular outside of Japan than inside of it.then why manga sales and the movie tickets only make big money in Japan
>>215528023Wasnt the biggest movie of the last few decades some superhero slop? Movies are also for children. Go read a book nigga.
>>215529899Americans don't buy comic books.
>>215529839>1998>DBZgo back to /co amerimutt
>>215529905they could if they give a free gun or burger with each volume
>>215521254>slopIt's better than anything put out in western cinema since BR2049
>>215524255That's still too much money. The box office I mean
>>215529825>Chainsaw Man is a rare example of an anime that is probably more popular outside of Japan than inside of it.Source fucking needed. All of his money come from japan mostly
>>215529973Collapsing sales in Japan, but in the West its a foundational series in the anime/manga fandom.
>>215529973If you're going to spam on an English language board, why not learn the language?
>>215529107found the tranny
>>215529957its Disney obviously they bought half of these
>>215530000answer the question Makimasimp
>>215521254It's not anime movies doing really well, it's more traditional cinema dying.
>>215529989>but in the West its a foundational series in the anime/manga fandom.lol no its way below OP, KNY,JJK, DB and Naruto
>>215530062Dragon Ball and Naruto are Millennial series. Zoomers don't really care much, except maybe some nostalgia for seeing Naruto on Toonami as a kid. JJK, CSM, and OP are definitely still a big trio. KNY is more popular in Japan than with Americans.
>>215530009turn on your monitor
>>215530102who cares about american they are only 2% of the fanbase
>>215523803COVID and it was for the worse
>>215530120What's his name?
>>215530289look at your id
>>215521254Now it will have some honeymoon years and then the medium will be completely destroyed by indians and jews.Anime will be unrecognizable and they will move unto the next target. I hope you will be happy.
>have to choose between capeshit, wokeslop, or retarded shonen garbage for manchildrenyou know what? fuck movies, im sticking with vidya. call me back when japan starts making kino like ping pong or space dandy again
>>215529989Because part 2 legitimately fucking sucks. It's not bigger in the west, it social media hype like any other anime today
>>215530524They did, you just dont care because you dont check seasonal
>>215521461the peter jackson adaptations cut a bunch of shit and added retarded fanfiction
