I was just thinking about how they made Highschool of the dead and since that's a trend here in the west and since reality tv is a big thing, would you watch an anime that was a reality show?

I hope this makes siense

What? How in the world would that even work?

The reason studios make reality shows is because they're cheap to produce. Once you include an animation budget (seriously they're supposed to be spontaneous, that's why they're all live action), you suddenly have a lot more money needed to make it (even Korean slave labour isn't cheap).

The premise of this discussion is flawed on multiple levels.

Wait...I do not see the relevancy of Highschool of the Dead in the same sentence of "reality show" and "a trend here in the west"
Whaaa...?
And, 'reality' anime only seems plausible if the viewers had to do a weekly poll of "WHO'S GONNA GET BOOTED OFF THE SHOW?!"
But...kinda meh.

The reason reality television is viable in the west is because it's very cost effective. It may not get ratings quite as good as something like Game of Thrones, but it is so very cheap to produce that it saves networks money.

It's cheap because the subject is occurring naturally. This basically cuts out a lot of the pre-production process such as script development.

Edit: Oh I forgot to mention my point; that is, it wouldn't be any cheaper to produce a 'reality anime' because it would just require the same animation costs, thereby nullifying any advantage the 'reality' style has.

It would be more expensive. Shaky camera, multiple perspectives, realism = more animation.

Yes, thankfully we should be spared that! (Don't give anybody any ideas just in case!)

When watching Yumeiro Pâtissière SP Professional - thought this is like a segment from Masterchef, only ~6 freakin hours long and that was bad enough.

Suppose I should put it in spoilers..though not much of a spoiler.

That would be hilarious. Each episode feature the Otaku goes to the grocery and 10 minutes of film a waifu blinks on screen.

How about an Otaku and a Scholar competing in a game show for whatever amount of money?

My pitch for an anime reality show.

Put a bunch of character archetypes (tsundere, yandere, emotionless girl) and see how long it takes for them to drive each other crazy.

Oh wait, that's every harem anime ever.

Actually, this has potential, because it eliminates the problem with most harems: the protagonist.

There's also a sci-fi show called Starship Operators where a bunch of newly graduated recruits on a ship discover their planet has been anexed, so they decide to rebel selling themselves to a television company for funding their private war. The company treats it like a reality show and puts a newscaster and cameras all over the ship to broadcast their battles. Actually this was pretty entertaining.

There's also a mecha show called Flag about a journalist/battle photographer which is seen primarily through the main characters' camcorder, TV screens, and camera lenses which is sort of like a reality show.
