You know anime is in a decline when a generic sports anime that has gay shit as its main selling point has highest sales.....

No, saying 'not gay' is very narrow .. I meant anime that would appeal to all audiences and would not be controversial so that people can happily discuss with a smile on their faces .. I also happen to mention S;G and HxH because all audiences and all age groups liked it too..

How the hell is being gay controversial?

Although +1 on more anime like HxH.

Yeah I know right? A shounen sports series written by a man with a target audience of teenage guys with no actual undertones or hints towards the dreaded Gay is selling well? B-But what about muh ecchi?

The only two anime here I've seen are Show By Rock!! s2 and Flip Flappers (watched like two episodes a day after it had ended) so I can't give much of an opinion as to anything else, but the difference in sales between #1 and #2 is insane. Really wish Flip Flappers had sold more because I really enjoyed it.

I'm also not sure if 2,203 for Show By Rock!! s2 means is sold well. I really don't want it getting a third season because it's so... not good and not what Show By Rock!! is. Show By Rock!! is supposed to be Slice-of-Life scenes between band members and other bands. Not whatever that weird saving the world shit was.

I didn't watch the show, but given the whole flippin' premise, I'm quite surprised that Keijo!!!!!!!! didn't sell any better than it did.
Important Note: I no longer - in any way, shape, or form - consider myself a moral nihilist (even in my old, convoluted definition of the term). I very much do believe there is such a thing as objective good and evil. In addition, I apologize for any of the posts I've made that are rude, aggressive, or otherwise unbecoming.

I've always striven to walk a path befitting a follower of Christ, and now recognize some of my old comments here as misguided if not outright wrong. If you happen upon them, pray do not let them darken your view of the God I serve. He is kind, even if I, at times, have not been.

Umm it is a fall 2016 list? Re Zero was not aired in fall , No wonder it ain't there..

But if it was airing in fall and was not there in the BD sales list .. I would have filed a case against CR for false information..

it didn't sell novels though. Which is the problematic part.

Except it really isn't, not here in the UK at least. No one with an IQ higher than a sponge gives a shit. I'd imagine things are very different in your country but generally in the West (barring some places in the US) its not controversial.

The novels are good. But the anime has quite a bit of failure in it. Lerche definitely did a far better job at adapting mahoiku than madhouse did at adapting alderamin. Then again it's Madhouse, so the screw up was to be expected.

If that's the case then I suppose every anime in existence is not normal since no single anime could possibly appeal to all kinds of audiences. Naruto, HxH or every other popular shounen anime might have huge fanbases but that's not an indicator that everyone likes it. Are you sure that all discussions involving those anime you mentioned are all smiles? Because I'm pretty sure every person here in MAL can testify that as long as people have differing opinions, clashes between opposing parties will always be inevitable. I've been here long enough since the age of Mikasa and his Nen to witness wars over HxH being seinen or how it is better than Fullmetal Alchemist:Brotherhood and every battle shounen you could possibly pit against it. Your definition of a "normal" anime is too hopeful though I'm quite sure you're just another salty individual who can't accept the mere fact that not all anime caters to their taste.

And what the hell is do great about Yuri on Ice? Seriously, I just don't understand. Let's take out the homosexual factor. On some real shit, wtf is so interesting about ice skating? How is ice skating better than Keijo? Do those fucking shit taste plebs not know greatness and creativity when they see it? Man that list triggered me so hard.

Why oh why do you all think YOI is so bad? Is it because it's gay? Is it because it's actually really bad but every fan fails to see it? Or are you just giving it shit because it's popular?

Anyway, this will be Studio Mappa reading all your shit.

What? Is that the only answer you could come up with? Are you alright? Every chicken brain in the world knows that there is nothing that everyone can absolutely agree with ..

I won't dignify you with a response any further either since you can't even support yout claims of what a "normal" anime. Your description of it is too stupid that I won't waste my time over it any further than I did.

PS: There are still a lot of "normal" anime out there so I don't even know where you got your bullshits from.

I haven't watch Yuri!!! on ice but with all the hype it made I'm not surprised it got first, although I wished Haikyuu!! got the first place, for me it was the best show of the fall season!
Glad to see Bungou Stray Dogs at the 5th place!

When I saw the title of the discussion I expected moe / ecchi animes to be at the top. Because Japanese otaku usually like that kind of animes. Good to see that's not always the case. But wait, does it mean that from my point of view you're the one having the ultimate s*** taste in anime? ^^'

i just don't get why a gay anime about figure skating is so popular. i mean even if you would replace the complete cast with hot girls, have a good story....it's still about figure skating. no one likes figure skating....

Well, obviously Yuri on Ice was appealing to many after the results show how huge its fanbase is so what's the problem? You say that there should be "normal" animes appealing to most people and just because YoI isn't appealing enough to you it doesn't match your definiton of normal?

Certainly it was appealing to many individuals as you can see the sales , But the sales obviously does not count the people disliking it or people who chose to AVOID it .. It has a large Fanbase but it also has a fair amount of people who can't deal with it , Its not just me ... You will know if you ever come out of that fudanshi circle of yours..

There is no anime that appeals to every single one ... However there are anime that does not steal peoples reason to watch ..

Its True that if YoI was not gay I would definitely would not have dropped it..

Same goes for Keijo , It does not appeal to a fairly large amount of people ..

What's wrong about it? There's Yuri on ice and Natsume S5. I don't care about the others. I'm a simple woman. I see YOI, I like it. XD
Even though I'm surprised, because it feels like Natsume is an "insider anime" in my country. It seems to be quite popular in Japan, isn't it?
