| Wait, did somebody seriously say that Berserk is unpopular? Miura can probably do one chapter a year and still play Idolm@ster for the rest of his life. I probably don't have to mention how well the recent Bebop Blu-ray Box sold either. |

| Damn, I'll just quote what I said before in another thread. It's a legend based on real activities going around on japan right now that I found on a strange, creepy book. Here it goes: tormented210 said: Fact: Fetish elements (ecchi, gore, moe and many many more) is easier to produce than original/intelligent stuff (duh!) Then: 1st Act - Alienation and the Genesis Trigger! They alienate kids with fetish content in kid's anime so they'll grow up with perverted mind creating a new world. 2nd Act - Even more Ecchi and Moe are produced to complete the Endless Hypnosis! The grown up kids will now buy those since they've been alienated by their last anime generation. 3rd Act - Alienated artists appear for the Calimity Renewal! Kids now artists, grew up with perverted minds so they renew the generation and are ready to dominate Japan with fetish everywhere. 4th Act - Total annihilation and the New Genesis! Now Japan has been conquered by perverted minds, original artists are forced to produce ecchi/moe show. 5th Act - The Calamity Genesis is completed! Now Anime industry only sell Ecchi and Moe, the vanquish is over. EXTRA 6th Act - The Chrono Shifting Effect! There's a legend that there will be only one healthy Japanese artist "he was in vacations in Hawaii so was not affected" will succeed in reverting the Calimity Genesis and bring back the healthy anime once more. He will save humanity from self destruction! It's him... DateYutakaaaaa! Yutakaaaa! Yaaaaa! Aaaaaa! It's him! It's true because DateYutaka can be read along these sentences. |

I know in America it's like that, idk about every other country. |

| The taste for Western is different than in Japan. Look at gaming for example, Military game like FPS does extremely well while the JRPG does little. Not only that but Western like their Cartoon to be funny or a parody of some people, like Family guy or South park. |

Rofl K lets , take a regular anime, and not one piece or FMA , as bake will get kick in the face Anime like Eureka Seven , sure it has less sales, no fuck you, its sales was rocket. Won tons of award compared to it. And no, I can't predict the future, but for now,bake is nothing much. |

| Popularity is really a mix of Global fan base, DVD sales and Awards (and some other Categories). Although, it really is just DVD sales and Fan Base. Saying that, its hard to say that which is the most popular, unless someone literally got all figures and got an average from them -.- |
 |
| This is obvious but Studio Ghibli films are really popular over there. They're always make tons of money in Japanese theaters when they're just released. |

IntroverTurtle said: You have tv ratings, awards, dvd sales, movie sales, video games, and probably a couple of other things that help you determine popularity. And people who do the moe trolling do that in every thread, they don't need a special one. One, that's an immense amount of information to collect and analyze. Two, how truly reflective of popularity are any of those things? How do we define popularity--by fan numbers or casual watchers? Awards really don't mean much (independent film awards represent niche bases). Though TV ratings would work, but how is that data collected and how accurate is it? Especially when considering niche interests, merch/BR/DVD sales might speak more than TV ratings, but it might also represent a very passionate minority. Three, where can we find comparable statistics outside of Japan? This is the biggest problem. As far as I know, there's little data on western fans. Again, it's a silly premise because we have no data to work with and it's hardly objective. Don't let that stop you; I get the point of the thread. I just wanted to point out that everything stated therein is groundless. Also, just because moe trolling happens in a lot of threads does not mean we should facilitate that. |
