Marco86 said: actually.. the "harem" genre increase the sales in japan not decrease it..malki said: wow..Madhouse want this anime to sell well no matter what..XD If they want good sales they should start by producing something good. I'm seeing "harem" in the genre tags so I'm afraid. At least, there's no ecchi (I hope). But I read in another thread that they don't care about disc sales so idk if it's rly the reason. just look at how that garbage ass absolute duo surpassed death parade's sales..lol |

malki said: i watched both and Absoutle Duo is something more fun meaning more ppl would want to buy the BDs. While Death Parade had a corny plot and a horrible first half. Only the ending saved that shit. Having a harem tag doesn't mean shit, its all about how good the certain anime is excuted. Ur acting like anything with a harem tag sells well when that isn't true….Marco86 said: actually.. the "harem" genre increase the sales in japan not decrease it..If they want good sales they should start by producing something good.

Maybe just maybe japan isn't as brainwashed as u think they are. They don't buy every shit under the sun. Besides the sales for AD wasn't anything special. So ur entire statement is wrong. |
| meh 1 cour, I expected it with OPM coming out afterwards, but still :'( anime sales are a thing of the past, hope it does great in the other departments. |
 |
| Confirmed as 1 cour...no surprise there imo. I'll look forward to the regular show but having mixed feelings on it right now. |

| That poster looks good, but then again that’s nothing to be surprised for Limited BD releases. Lots of series, especially those based on light novels/novels do this all the time (+ other extra goodies). It’s all about if the Japanese find the content produced by the studio worthy of their money, or not. For what I’ve seen, Madhouse doesn’t seem to have a good track record selling their own stuff. Honestly all the PVs of that series released so far look pretty subpar, so I don’t feel confident about it (I’m not even sure if I’m going to even watch it at this point). rederoin said: I don't think madhouse gives a shit. I hope you’re joking. As a business, they should definitely care about how well their products do in the market (promotion and product selling). That’s of course if they don’t want to go under in the future. But then again I don’t know Madhouse, so what should I know. I just can’t see the people in charge of that studio being like: “…well if it sells…. great, if not, so be it….. It promoted the material fairly well (not great though), so I guess there is no need for us to worry. Plus, even though sells were abysmal, we still made a bit of profit. After all, who needs more money to run things around here, right?...” Although hearing that would be kinda funny, it would also be pretty sad. |
 We ultimately fear what spawns from within us ~Shinsekai yori Music is freedom. ~Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso |
| this is just a appetiser before One-Punch Man airs still looking forward to it |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| cant wait to the anime :) |

I didn't say all animes who has "harem" oe "ecchi" in the genre tags are shits..all I said is the harem/ecchi genre make the anime sells more than some other animes even if it has a "trashier" plot.. in other words.."Increasing Sales Using Sex" |
| Well this was a pleasant surprise,hope they have all of those bonus contents on the American and Europe release! |
| As i expected it's a 1-cour...hopefully it turns out good in the end. |

But I read in another thread that they don't care about disc sales so idk if it's rly the reason. Despite whatever you'd like to believe, there are no studios that don't care about their sales. To me, this seems more like Madhouse only expecting a small return of profits. In a lot of cases, with late night tv anime, they are only hired to do the animation. They don't see any of the profit. |
| I was pretty hyped when I heard that their were going to be an adaptation but my feelings are kinda mixed right now. |
