Last weekend we conducted 4chan PMQ/Q&A #3, with 1400 people contributing 4500 posts over 22 hours. I managed to spend the better part of a day answering as many questions as possible—thread here.
Since loading large threads can be a bit of a pain on slower computers, you can also see my replies from the /q/ index (hover over the "Administrator Replies" quotelinks).

Thanks to everyone who asked questions and participated!

I wasn't trying to say anything bad about about UtaPri. I meant to say that the other anime aren't close at all to 10k+.

If I remember correctly it goes Valvrave -> Gargantia -> Titans and then a wide gap until Hataraku and Aku no Hana.

Aw shiet, i'm happy for SnK but Hataraku deserves more sales than this.
>>
>>85985011
I don't dislike Hataraku, far from it, but it will be buried underneath Summer.

Meanwhile, for better or worse, Shingeki is on a one way trip to becoming as popular and mainstream as something like FMA. Not to mention the reception in Japan.
>>
>>85984527
SAO is pretty forgotten by now. All the SAO fags are jumping on SnK train.
>>
>>85985136
>SAO is pretty forgotten by now.

Hardly. Unless you mean on /a/, which is different since SAO had a positive reaction for all of one episode, unlike SnK which is still liked by a sizeable portion of the board.
>>
>>85985089
I'm not sure, I still feel like the humor is well-made and the pacing tight enough that it'll stick around for longer than that, based on its own merit. In rec charts at least, I'd hope.

I'm still convinced that SnK is generic as hell, and the fact that it's that popular kind of astounds me. I'm watching it, and I don't hate it, but it isn't even my favorite of this season; to each their own, I guess.
>>
>titan being high

all's right with the world
>>
>>85985089
It's very likely that Shingeki will be #2 best selling manga when anime ends and anime itself shows hopes of competing with Zenmonogatari for #1 2013, I doubt it will end at that. Yeah, SnK won't go down, it's already obvious.
>>
>>85985256
Generic does not mean bad. It's less generic than a romcom like Hataraku, for instance, but that doesn't make Hataraku bad.
>>
>>85985256
I predict that Hataraku will become another Ben-To: a solid comedy which is forgotten after it airs and only pops up as WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME IT WAS GOOD, /a/ SUCKS /v/ FOR LYF threads.
I also agree with you on SnK, shit's underwhelming and kind of stupid.
>>
>>85985442
SnK is very well planned out for a long time, you won't get all the answers in first five or even fifty episodes.

>Hyakka Ryouran
Dammit, Japan.

(Figure sales, right?)
>>
>>85985581
Okay. It's just that most of people complaining about SnK are asking questions like "how were they able to build huge walls? bad writing", so I wanted to clear it up.
>>
>>85985397
I agree. SnK isn't 'bad', I just don't see what makes it that 'good'. I'm enjoying it, but apparently not as much as everyone else.

>>85985544
Doesn't that strike anyone as a sort of problem? Waiting THAT long to get answers to even the most basic of questions would be fine if the characters made me care or answers were teased more sporadically, but even in the manga shit's a mess right now. I find a handful of SnK's characters appealing, but they're always in the background to one-dimensional Eren's antics; when your main character can go seven episodes without changing at all except into a titan giving a fuck becomes harder and harder. My favorite episode so far was 6, if for no other reason than the monochromatic main character's absence allowed some much needed breathing room to the other characters. Something I don't see happening again any time soon.
>>
>>85985802
>I'm enjoying it, but apparently not as much as everyone else.

SnK hatebase is sure worse than Naruto's fanbase.
>>
>>85985802
>Something I don't see happening again any time soon.
You mean next episode? Because next episode is all about everyone but Eren being resourceful.

And I'm fine with mysteries being piled on. In a detective story I'd rather not have the mystery solved halfway through. And we have answers to basic questions.
>>
>>85985902
What is this your first time on /a/. That is nothing compared to Madoka's or Bakemonogatari's hatebase. Shit Bake's was some of the worst shit on /a/ ever because of the spam they fucking loved so much.
>>
>>85984993
I liked GRZ
>>
>>85985802
>Doesn't that strike anyone as a sort of problem?
Why should it be a problem? Majority of shows are one cour, it's nice to have something that won't end in six hours. There's a lot to SnK's plot. One mystery gets solved, another appears. You shouldn't expect mysteries vital to said universe to be resolved quickly, it has to take time to be believable. Hints are dropped around all the time, so there won't be any asspull. I'm really impressed by SnK's plot, even if I like many manga/anime more for various reason.
>>
>>85986027
That's the point.
>>
>fanbase
Just hide posts and threads you don't like, and go watch some anime you enjoy.

Caring more about anime fans than anime only makes you look pathetic.
>>
>>85985902
I'm sorry there's a difference between appreciating a show for slick actio, but not really finding it 'that great' and praising it as the second coming of Christ.

Shocker: there are numerous opinions on the internet.

I find titan incredibly boring, am I retarded?

No. You just have good taste.

>finding it 'that great' and praising it as the second coming of Christ

I've never even seen the fanbase praise it. Sorry, I don't go on MAL. I've only seen retards on /a/ bitch about the "annoying fanbase that's literally worse than Hitler and SAO put together."
>>
>>85986257
No, you just have common sense.

Bad taste would be a better way to say it
