| If I have enough money and want an anime adaptation or sequel. Is there any way to contact the studios and make deal with them just so I can watch that sequel. For example, a sequel of Btoom from Madhouse or a proper adaptation of Berserk. |

| If i had that much money to waste, i'd much rather Direct & Screenwrite my own Indie Film for the same price. |

| Some anime get made through Kickstarter funding, so the idea of a studio making an anime because somebody paid them doesn't seem too far fetched. |

| The real question is: why should we ? |

That's what you would pay millions for?

I think you're crazy silly or crazy rich. If you had the money and chance to make your dream come true ... i dont believe for a second you'd actually want to. |

@Blarey it's not like millions of $ is all that much to be mindful about. It's not like it would enough money to retire on. |

| Well Porter Robinson got an anime(even if it's short) out of his song so I guess it can happen :> |
| Maybe if you are Bill Gates otherwise, no you can't afford to pay them for your chinese cartoon. |
 |
| I would pay for a 100 episode Gantz anime adaptation. Needs to happen |
| You can pay me. Everyone please transfer 10$ to this bank account ***** and I will deliver you a masterpiece that surpasses Shitcom. |

For example, a sequel of Btoom from Madhouse or a proper adaptation of Berserk. 1) Yes, in general case, money can get you anything. You can even hire somebody to take care of the details below. 2) You will need to secure rights to adapt the stuff. This is going to be the hard part, because publishing companies are crazy, and authors are even crazier. You will probably need to hire a Japanese person to do that, because cultural and language barriers. 3) Finding a studio will probably be easier - if you have the money, they will probably do it. Just take care - many studios have plans for years ahead. 4) You can probably get the studio to handle hiring voice actors, printing BDs and so on. 5) While you're at it, send them a English-native translator to put subtitles in the work. 6) Paying out of your own pocket can be expensive, even if you plan to get some profit out of that. Kickstarter will need some preliminary agreements for points 2 or 3, to convince backers that you're serious. And bank loans will be even harder than Kickstarter, because bankers will not even understand what you're talking about. But a true businessman can find a way. |
| You can't do that. However, you can pay me to do something that others wouldn't do. ;) |
| yeah i guess with enough money you can do anything but the ballpark is a few million dollars for an average tv series so good luck ;v and you will also need to make serious 'connections' for a higher profile project theoretically, ideally, you should get the money back... but btooom wasnt a very successful series so you have to suffer the losses flannan detailed very nice the problems you may encounter.. i can +1 his post makes me wonder if Berserk 2016 happened because of an eccentric millionare that wasnt rich enough to afford better animation |

| They won't accept money from outside sources unless they do some Kickstarter type of thing. |

| A better solution is to apply Kickstarter campaigns to Anime too just like games !! with goals being more episodes, music by certain bands, T-shirts and such...PERFECT ! |
 |
| I'm surprised more Japanese production committees and studios (of course with assumed approval from the original creators) are not jumping on the idea of a Kickstarter/Gofundme type thing for any existing franchises with plenty of source material to cover. Not only would they be getting money to cover the costs if they were to start one, they would know how much people are at least interested in seeing the show continue If it's not enough money, it's money practically given for free to them without effort. |

| It costs $1.95 million to create a 13 episode anime, but this doesn't mean they would be earning anything if you just gave them the money and they gave you the anime. You'll have to also give them damage control money just in case the anime isn't successful to make sure they'll be making money no matter what from this situation, so add another 50% to that. For a full year (52 episode) series this would cost $11.7 million which isn't something I would expect you to be able to afford. |
  |
| Could we pay the studios to get anime dubs that DON'T suck out loud??? (Lookin at you Strawberry Marshmallow, K-On!, and Chunibyou...) |
 |
| If you have enough money to fund sequels to multiple shows then you may as well start the next Kyoani and try to make money off of it. It'll cost you two to eight million dollars for a single anime that isn't a long runner, so you had better have deep pockets. You would need to approach the IP owners, btw. Anime studios often aren't the IP owners of the anime they produce. |
| If money is no trouble then why not. Money can buy anything. |

This is the answer I was seeking Thanks. Btw it is not like I actually have the money or I would pay if I have. Just curious that if some chinese billionaire happen to enjoy anime. |

You speak like you have been through it yourself. That was scarily detailed yet very informative OT although I wouldn't waste so much money for such a petty concept. If it's my hard earned money, I think that it would be a waste for a production that will probably happen in the future with more or less the same outcome. |

martiooo said: The best you can waste your money on is Index/Railgun. But you'll need about 10-20 million to adapt the rest of the novels and manga. Check out the first 4 seasons and decide if that's what you want to waste your lottery winnings on. At least buy me one more season. Is this because you know I am currently marathoning the series or just a spooky coincidence ? |

| Guys Btoom was just an instant example, so was Berserk. And it is not like I do have the actual money to even wish to do this. BUT, some people spends A LOT more than few millions for their hobbies or whatever they are into. So I can see that if these people happen to enjoy anime as much as I do they might have think about this. And no, kickstarting is not what I mean. |

So I can see that if these people happen to enjoy anime as much as I do they might have think about this. some business man who was greatly ispired by fukumoto's manga or smth came with the funds but even if it was ever the case for an anime the public would not know |
