"Waah they aren't making waifus so they suck"

I hate Japan

"Sales = quality" - some retarded fucking nip faggot

Nichijou was pretty bad, though. Just doing random stuff over and over again doesn't make a good show

> Nichijou was far from break-even
DURRRRR

Even the buyfags'll find that pill hard to swallow once they have a look at the price. Shit's more expensive than buying a slave

>implying the sales aren't down to sky-high DVD/BD prices.

Please fuck off back to MAL since you seem to enjoy sensationalism more than actual facts.

>>55347937

Literally costs 1200 dollars for the full set. Who the hell would pay that?

>>55347960

It always makes me laugh how Americans complain about boxsets being like 60 dollars. They don't realize how good they have it

That fucking made my day.

>>55347738
>The reputation of Kyoto Animation
What reputation?

>sell it at unreasonable prices
>bitch about sales.

The price wasn't even KyoAni's choice.

>>55348015

They could sell shit and people would line up for it. Both E8 and now crap like Nichijou is losing that diehard loyalty

>>55347960
ONE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED?
REALLY?

Wow...what the actual fuck.

Wasn't Kara no Kyoukai turbo super BR complete edition something about $400?

IT'S OVER KYOANI IS FINISHED

>>55348105

Kara no Kyoukai was 900 dollars, and it was a little above average too. Normal 2 cour set costs about 600-700

Who in the fuck would even pay $100 dollars, let alone one fucking thousand two hundred.

There are a few plain moe shows every season but they don't always sell like hotcakes, really. They get ignored alot. As popular as people think "moe" is it only works every once in a while, like K-On.

>>55348105
If I'm not mistaken it was somewhere around 900, and it was more than just all the BDs, but had a book and the OSTs and everything.

Nichijou is just the BDs

>>55348219

Nichijou isn't moe, though. Nobody gives a shit about any of the girls in it. Look at Lucky Star, its same kinda shit except it focused on the girls, so it sold 30k even though its full set also cost 1200 dollars.

Wakfu
27 Episodes, 40$
http://www.amazon.fr/dp/B003SMWE5Q/

Nichijou
26 Episodes, 1200$

Maybe they were testing the grounds to see how high they could drive BD prices or something?

Surely they're not going to leave it at 1200 bucks right?

Who the fuck is publisher?

$1200?


Even insane otaku won't buy it and they buy EVERYTHING.

>>55348326

Its worked before for KyoAni anime. Lucky Star was that price, as was all Haruhi stuff. I guess they just thought people would buy up Nichijou like those shows.

>>55348347

Kadokawa

Otaku much be fucking rich or something. Not only do they buy complete series but also the merchandise that goes with those series.

>>55348326
For the single BDs they are leaving it at that price.

The boxset will be cheaper, but I wouldn't count on anything below $700

If I was an otaku, I'd buy a used Ferrari.

>>55347996
>Generalizations
>Implying Eurofags wouldn't complain

KyoAni created a monster that they could not truly control...

dammit.

>>55348264
>Wakfu
>27 Episodes, 40$
39$ too much.
also, >>/co/

ITT: newfags realize how expensive anime is in GLORIOUS NIPPON

>>55348259
This.

The sad thing is if Nichijou really focused on moeblobbing, it would probably sell like hotcakes.

>Make a great show
>Make the BD/DVD Overpriced
>Lack of sales ruins that show's opportunity of even a single Ova.
Being Nichijou is, indeed, suffering.

>>55348548
At least we get the manga, right?

That animator is definitely one retarded faggot.

And this is why moe reigns supreme. The people buying moe shows are the hardcore otaku who are willing to shell out these insane prices. No normal person is going to pay even 400 dollars for a 1 cour set, which is the average price, so it leaves the ronery otaku who fap to 2d girls as the only ones who are really willing to fund the industry.

For the last time, it's because there's some retard monkey pricing the BLUREIS, it really has nothing to do with the quality (or lack thereof) of the show itself.

>>55348548
The worst part is that they will blame Nichijou for the lack of sales instead of the crazy prices. Kyoani just went full baka.

>>55348840

Well, KyoAni likely expected it to be another Lucky Star, which as I've stated, was a massive success with the same pricing structure. They just seemed to forget what separated Lucky Star from a show like Nichijou.

Blaming it on the price is a cop out... if you make an anime people want to buy, they'll pay whatever you charge. People just didn't like Nichijou enough to pay that price.

>>55348840
>Kadokawa sets Nichijou's price at 1200$
>It doesn't sell
>Blame KyoAni
>People believe it

This isn't surprising at all, though it reflects nothing on Kyoani's quality, it reflects on how retarded the pricing for the BD were, because even fans of the show aren't willing to take out the loan required to have the show on BD. Maybe Kadokawa has learned their lesson, but they ruined a shows chances of success in the process.

>>55348347
??? what fuck 1200 dolars? You can buy a fucking house for 1200 dolars...

>>55348889
So, from what I get from your post is
>Lucky Star Dvd were in total, about $1200 when it just came out.
Citation needed. I doubt it was that expensive when Lucky star just aired.

>>55348970
no you can't

>>55348903
Well, I don't blame Kyoani, just the retard that priced the Bluerays for the same amount of money that you could spend on an underaged thai sex slave.

>>55348982

Its typical Kadokawa pricing for 2 cour series. Same price per volume but only 2 episodes per volume, so its 90 x 13, or 1170 dollars. Gosick also suffered from it this year, and sold about the same as Nichijou.

>>55348970
You might be able to rent a dog house for that price.

>>55348970
Wait what. No it wasn't!

This is why insane tastelss otaku are ruining industry.

There is no quality control.

They will buy anything at any price as long as it's catered their shitty taste.

>>55349131

>Waah people buy stuff they like

>>55349131
typical nichishit faggot thinking he have good taste

>>55349106

Though I will say Lucky Star wasn't quite that much, since it was only DVD at that point. Kadokawa DVDs sell for about 75, so it was like 1000 total. But it was using the same pricing structure they use now if you bought all the Nichijou DVD volumes

>>55348970
>You can buy a house for 1200$
You must be clinically retar....

Well played.

Why are these threads so successful?
It's the same shit over and over.

>>55349196
I hate Nichijou and it's a shitty show.

I am mostly talking about K-ON.

Do you think teenage girl are buying BluRays?

>>55349263

Nah, they're too busy buying tons of DVDS of Uta no Prince Sama

I'm glad this shit didn't sell. Kyo Ani has to stick to what they are good at, and thats moeblob shows. This is a harsh lesson but a good one for their future.

>>55349459
>Kyo Ani has to stick to what they are good at, and thats moeblob shows.
Because that's exactly what we need the most, moeblobs. More moeblobs. Retarded seventeen year olds acting like they were six. That will save the world one day.

>>55349661

Yep, they are what sell. If you want a healthy industry, you need to bank on what makes the most money.

>>55349687
moeblobs don't make a lot of money. only k-on.

>>55349761

>World of Golden Eggs

Yeah, this list is legit.

>>55349219
That still seems to be about the same, and then you take into account the inflation of money over the years.

>>55349892
Are you trolling or just retarded?

>>55349952

>durr I'm gonna throw some random show nobody has ever heard onto the list

No other top selling list has whatever that show is.

>>55349892
>Implying World of Golden Eggs is not a fucking marvel out of this world in terms of sale
fullretard.jpg

>>55349991
If you don't know about it, it doesn't mean it didn't sell well. There are a lot of popular shows on japan that aren't discussed on /a/.

>>55350052

Why is it NEVER on any sales charts then? Even the oricon ones? I keep up with the Oricon sales charts every single week for the last 3 years, and NEVER seen it, even though its apparently an airing show.

>>55349761

>Mfw Darker Than Black S1 sold more than S2 by almost 4000

>>55350091
Most of its sells are from 2005, 2006.

>>55350091
>The World of Golden Eggs Vol. 01 was voted top selling anime/special effects DVD in Japan in 2008 with 97,292 copies

You seem to be mad this normalfag show sells more than your moeshit.

>>55350140

Then theres no way its that high. Charts like that use the average sales of every volume, so unless early volumes sold like 10 million or something, the fact its so low now would bring it down so it can't be averaging that many sold.
