>>114330975Cool? Seems weird though for Cover to be on any global ranking since even at this point they're barely a blip outside of japan.
>>114330975Any industry that relies on NEETs going forward is gonna be big in the next 10-15 years. Like a roman Colosseum duel to the death for which corpa gets their slice of anons very limited limited income.

>>114331387That's what phasenigs would like you to believe
>>114330975Hololive does literally nothingStill Wins It's getting lonely at the Top
>>114330975Where does Nijisanji Place?
>>114332372yeah they just become more likely prey to jewish subversion.
>>114332863phasecucks wish they were there
>>114332817I'd genuinely be surprised if Niji wasn't on the same list at either roughly the same rank or higher. They've always been more commercialized.
>>114332817>>114333795The key word is "global". NijiEN is all but dead and NijiJP organs make little to no effort to reach out beyond their little island.
>>114334323Yeah, and outside of the annual dodgers collab what presence does Holo really have outside of Japan? It's mostly just an insular niche of a niche riding entirely off its japanese dominance. Putting it it on the same list as companies like Ford, TGIF, or hell even Ocean Spray is insane. Ocean Spray's products have covered supermarket shelves for decades. You won't find anything with Cover's name on it outside of specialty JP import shops.
>>114334421NTA, but you realized that that list was ranked based on their retail sales of licensed products, yes? No matter if it's "mostly just an insular niche of a niche", if it sells well, it will be in that list - and it sure does. The collab with Dodgers sold more merch than any Dodgers collab before that including Hello Kitty (which should be much much bigger than Cover / Hololive) should've been enough of an indication that they sell very well.Ford asides ($2.3B from licensing is another level or two ahead of Cover), Ocean Spray got "only" $230M which isn't as far ahead of Cover ($150M)
>>114334767yeah, which is why I'm surprised Niji isn't in the same boat. Don't they usually get around the same?
>>114331882MAGNUMSEETHE
>>114334844Not internationally, I believe. AnyColor is a bit ahead by around 10%-ish of revenue (a few billions yen) and notably ahead in profit, but most of their sales are domestic.
>>114335149Yeah, that's what I can't get. Where on earth would Cover be getting this international profit? There's no way that an annual concert or two + horribly taxed merch alone could put them in the same league as the things around them. They must be counting Japan in it or something. I'm genuinely curious.
>>114330975can't be very difficult to make money when you make your employees pay for everything
>>114330975>COVER got 3 entire paragraphs in the articleHow much did they pay for that coverage?
>>114335200Dodgers collabMany TW collabs Merch $150M would've been too small for their annual revenue including JP (but too big for quarterly revenue). I think you just underestimated how much those collabs and merch made (i.e: the TW Sushiro collab made at least $1.5M with only Gura alone, and that's just one collab).
>>114333795Anycolor isn't even in the list
>>114335200>>114335149Guys, do remember that this is for licensing. Anycolor's revenues are mostly from commerce, read, throwing out a ton of acrylic stands, not from collabs with dodgers or clothing brands or stuff like round one or capcom
>>114335838This. And picrel if you are fine with chatGPT's guess
