So if you were like super rich what would you do regarding anime & manga?

Off the top of my head: Buy a lot of figurines, have one big room just for anime & manga (with large bookshelves like a library), support the industry in some way (like maybe fund a project?).

First of I would probably buy shit that will be actually important. Anyway, I would probably buy some manga, BDs but not that much to have a room filled with them.

Produce a cell animated science fiction action movie with an older art style. Or historical fantasy.

Produce a hentai with actually good animation, art, acting and scenes, then publish it overseas so that everyone who doesn't live under such a prudish government can watch it uncensored.

Fill up my anime collection, along with creating a significant manga collection. Aside from one or two figures afterwards, that's about all I'm interested in investing in.

Otherwise the rest would go towards a house/condo and then live out the rest of my days about as alone and empty as I already am.

I'd buy some figurines and shelves to store them in
Then I'd create a hella manga and DvD collection and get some of those rotating bookshelves
I'd also support the industry a bit

If I was rich enough to buy out the jobs of the major people responsible for anime production and replace them with chimpanzee's I could effectively crash the industry long before they do it themselves

I'd start importing DVDs and Blu-rays from Japan. I'd hire someone to teach me Japanese so I wouldn't need subtitles. I'd commission a new Bleach anime with an ending and no filler.

Like several people said, it would depend on my wealth.

But if I had enough money, then I'll fund and build a machine that can have me travel to whatever anime universe I desire. Look at these realistic aspirations.

I'd buy BD's too but manga is more important to me atm.

I wouldn't really spend a lot on anime if I were rich, honestly.

How much rich is this rich supposed to be?

I've already got some BluRay/DVDs, mangas and LNs. But I really need to think long and hard before buying them because I find them extremely expensive.

If I was a popular billionaire then the first thing I would do it pay Takabayshi Tomo, Temari Matsumoto and GEG to stop with their crappy series and make sure that it never surfaces again and no anime studio will ever even think of continuing/remaking that shit. I'd definitely encourage them to start with some new piece of trash which I won't read from the very beginning.

After that buy and try to promote the series that I like.

Buy out all shares of Rabu Raibu from MSCII, Sunrise, Lantis, and Dengeki. Then fund The ultimate Idol project. Rather than the 24 episodes of the original Rabu Raibu, and a movie, I will reboot it keeping the original story, but adding more elements to it. Making it at the least 100-200 episodes. Then I'd make an after story. Same with Rabu Raibu Sunshine, maybe a bit more for Sunshine because it is currently my favorite Rabu Raibu. It millions of dollars well spent, maybe even a billion dollars.

If I was rich enough to pay Studio Bones for a third season of Noragami then I would do that.

If I wasn't that rich or the studio wouldn't accept the offer or If I still had money left, I would buy DVD/Blu-ray's of my favorite anime, but mostly Noragami merch. Especially that Noragami Blu-Ray BOX that costs $200.
Help the industry and buy Blu-rays and DVD's.
Noragami is the best anime ever.

Probably nothing. I'd rather spend my money in getting my Dual Citizenship for Spain or Cuba and buying a house in either country. I'd also buy tickets to see Real Madrid matches in Person.

Well, maybe I'd buy DVDs of some of my favorite animes like School Rumble, Great Teacher Onizuka or Death Parade

Depending how rich. Rich enough to simply buy all the anime manga and shit i like or rich enough to even buy anime companies?

I will really like the second so i can buy some animation studios and publishers and try to change the model to mass sales by making high production anime that i sent in all countries in the world threw amazon etc and even directly in lower prices instead of depending on Japanese otakus that i sell over-expensive too to make up for the small audience and things like Funimation that just give me a small fee and take the rest of the money.

That will mean that i will finally satisfy the demand many people have to get anime at their country and cash in on the popularity anime have instead of depending on the Japanese market. It will also give the freedom to stop having to cater to japanese otakus and their fetishes and quirks and just make whatever anime i think it will be awesome in general.
Lastly i will focus on original series or finished series. I will like the anime my companies make to be finished works instead of just manga advertisements.

the last crazy thing i will do is make a hentai anime with actual good production values and story despite having crazy sex inside. I always wanted to see someone actually making something like that.

Id pay someone to make an anime about my life. Now that would get me back into watching anime.

There's a lady who's sure

And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Oh oh oh oh and she's buying a stairway to heaven
