I think being original story has more to do with Dangeki bunko policy, all their 3 movies SAO, AW & MAHOUKA are originals. yeah, it's a little surprising since MH isnt on the committee, but atleast they are getting back in the game. |

When talking of MH movies weren't you talking of the AAA Original, or directly from source adaptations, movies? Because this one most probably will not have big budget. |
| Sad to hear about Bones and seriously didnt think they would have been in trouble, well thats because I didnt even know they were behind Captain Earth which ive heard was terrible and didnt even bother picking it up :/ Hopefully series like Noragami and Akagami no Shirayuki-hime which I really enjoyed and perhaps majority too? will help boost sales income. |

Makes sense tho that an idol project would go to him. waiting for an Ishizuka project, and others) But since now we know that madhouse has two producers for movies, it's a safe choice to start with.eromangasensei said: So Madhouse is back in the Original Theater Feature Films!

Ichi11 that comment in Toei Animation is like that since the 2013 issue of the magazine. This year they stopped at exactly 150, last year they went a little after that where Viz did 50M in position 153. Here is what it said: |
| Just a simple note. The money that appears here is not the money the company is earning, but the money that the sales that all the licencee earn with the multiple franchises of the company. If we assume that a licencor gets around 1/4 of the money the licencees earn, than Pokemon Company International gets 525 Million dollars not 2.1B. Also I don't know if Pokemon Company International is just a licensor company or if they also do and sell stuff. If they do then they earn more than just the Licensing money. For example last year Toei Animation earned 95.7 Million dollars from 380 Million of the licenses, but in total for their operations(licenses+Film+Others) earned 283 Million dollars. |
| I know I am late, but I noticed this one comment though and it really bothered me. bigivelfhq said: Nope, Gross Profit is the same as Net Income. They are interchangeable! Gross Profit is not interchangeable with Net Income. There is a fundamental difference between the two. Gross Profit is an important figure as it tells you how efficient the company is at using labor and inputs. Gross profit is essentially the profit you would earn ignoring your costs to run the operating side of the business (period expenses), extraordinary gain and losses, and other revenues and costs. Net Income, is your actual and overall profitability in the year (if you assume other comprehensive income is 0, and net income = comprehensive Income for simplicity sake). Net income is your revenues earned during the period deducted buy all expenses incurred. Expenses not included in gross profit but that are included in net income include selling expenses (ex. advertising), administrative expenses (ex. human resources), general expenses (ex. freight-out expenses i.e. distribution costs like shipping), gains and losses from selling capital property (ex. selling equipment for more than its carrying amount), interest expenses (sometimes capitalized), and etc. So it is actually fairly important to distinguish between the two numbers. Besides that, this is a great and useful compilation as it is difficult for us non-Japanese speaker to gather. Thanks for putting this together :) |

Dragon ball super is doing extremely good and TOEI continue to earn a lot of money |
damn imagine if it has good consistent animation then i bet it will be more profitable than One Piece TV |
| It's sad how extremely bad studios like Toei make tons of money shitting on people's faces with the worst animation possible while Bones, one of the best studios is losing money. |

| @Dab1za9 Where did you get that image? Toei still didn't uploaded their financial results files in their site! Though they already posted an article talking about the performance of this year. 31,616,000,000 Yen : Sales *5,243,000,000 Yen : Operating Income *5,883,000,000 Yen : Ordinary Income *3,635,000,000 Yen : Net Income Comparing with their last 5 years: Sales - 3rd Biggest Operating Income - Biggest Ordinary Income - Biggest Net Income - Biggest This year One Piece almost reached the best International Selling Level of Digimon franchise. Digimon franchise in its peak got 3,200 Million Yen. This year One Piece got 3,114 Million Yen. Next Year(Financial one) if One Piece gets good International deals and sales with the Film Gold, it will most possible surpass that! XD @TheKawaiiZombie In terms of Business Management, Planning and Production Toei Animation is way better than Bones. You know in the aspect of providing entertainment. If Bones was doing its job well, instead of being losing money it would be earning it and the company would be increasing in size instead. |

Business management, that means being assholes that only care about money, why do you think Toei make the worst shit the anime world as seen ? Because they put the least budget to make the most money, it's sad how bad they adapted One Piece. They haven't done a single good adaptation. Bones on the other hand make amazing adaptations and they don't give us shit animation like Toei does, the reason i hate Toei is because they don't care about doing something good, they could do anime with amazing animation but instead they want the couple dollars more they'll get with giving us shit. Toei could give us amazing animation and still make tons of money, but instead they put about 3.25$ per 10 episodes so they can make even more money which they don't even know where to put. What's sad is that people actually help them make that much money. Just think of One Piece with the animation of HunterXHunter 2011, it would be amazing ( Oh and while we're on it, get rid of the fillers ), Toei could do something great like that but they won't even though they'd easily have the budget to do that. The reason being all they care of is money. Studio Pierrot isn't much better, they also do shit jobs, look how they adapted Naruto, Bleach and Tokyo Ghoul. At least Pierrot do top notch openings though. |

| @bigivelfhq here is some data related to MAPPA: Ani-Gamers (Evan): How big IS the company? Iwase: I think we have 50 full-time employees. The other people work freelance. Including them, we grow to a size of about 150. source: http://www.anigamers.com/interviews/studio-mappa-masao-maruyama-yasuaki-iwase-otakon-2015 bigivelfhq said: holy shit..this is even bigger than Sunrise..>_>Madhouse Source: http://ke.kabupro.jp/tsp/20110208/140120110208030989.pdf Capital -> 1,420,000,000 Yen Patrick Aguda (Operation Rainfall): What inspired you to leave Madhouse and create MAPPA? Masao Maruyama: I was with Madhouse for 30 years. And in the 30 years, it had become a very large organization. And there was little freedom left in the things that I worked on. And because I wanted to do things that I wanted to do, I decided to create a separate company, MAPPA, and leave Madhouse so that I could work on what I wanted to work on. Personally, large organization with little freedom is not my taste. I’d rather be, working on things that I want to work on with people that I get along with. And of course, Mappa’s now gotten big, so I don’t know what to do now! (laughs) source: http://www.animeherald.com/interview/meeting-living-legend-masao-maruyama/ he also think that western has better tast than japan lol.. C.J Maffris (Toonami Faithful Podcast): You worked on Trigun with Madhouse, and also the movie Badlands Rumble. Trigun achieved a higher level of success here in North America than is reportedly did in Japan. Was that surprising to the staff at Madhouse? Masao Maruyama: This obviously isn’t everything that I worked on, but a number of the titles that I worked on, Trigun being one of them, they seem to be getting more popularity outside of Japan. And some of the things that Satoshi Kon’s worked on, they seem to be very popular in France. And my theory is that maybe people overseas are better at identifying things that are really good, but that’s just a theory. (laughs) Astro Boy was obviously very popular in Japan, but it has won popularity in the US as well. Another title I can think of is Ninja Scroll that [Yoshiaki] Kawajiri’s worked on, and that one is very popular in the US and France. The titles that I personally like seem to be popular in other countries, too. source: the same interview eromangasensei said: don't worry, he won't make the same mistake he made in Madhouse again..Look out for Mappa's financial situation, Maruyama might burn another company into the ground. the numbers get worse with each new bit xD Ani-Gamers (Evan): What is the studio environment like at MAPPA, and how does it compare to other studios that you’ve worked at or visited? Iwase (MAPPA's CEO): Maruyama and I have been at Madhouse for 40 years, and I don’t think it’s that different from other studios. If I were to say, though, some recently formed studios with younger people might have better teamwork. If MAPPA grew too big then it would be harder to keep a handle on everything and to keep everything centered around Mr. Maruyama. So I think right now MAPPA is a very good size. There was a time when Madhouse was a bit TOO big, but at that point things were out of our hands.

TheKawaiiZombie said: anything i want to said already done by bigivelfhq... when most studio being very dick to their workers, only care about works, and giving soo many pressure to employers, toei is one of rare of studio that not underpaid, rarely outsourching, and give their workers highest average paid! their cost to produce anime is higher than most studio! also when most studio being private company, hiding soo many secrets behind their surface, TOEI is the only one studio that opnened their management and made it public!They haven't done a single good adaptation. also talking about adaptation, funny that they are one of those rare studio that their CGI works is accepted by anime comunity (captain harlock and expelled from paradise)... TheKawaiiZombie said: Studio Pierrot isn't much better, they also do shit jobs, look how they adapted Naruto, Bleach and Tokyo Ghoul. At least Pierrot do top notch openings though. they are doing great if they are giving enough money and time! |

Kekkai sensen was a hit so I guess it makes sense they'll try their luck again. sorry, but source is in japanese. This info was released at the next day of the same event where TMS & MADHOUSE producers talked about all out! Production (MAL posted the news last week, yes?) maybe space dandy movie? |

Z4k said: TheKawaiiZombie said: It's sad how extremely bad studios like Toei make tons of money shitting on people's faces with the worst animation possible while Bones, one of the best studios is losing money. That's a pretty ignorant thing to say. Have you watched Toei's precure shows? https://sakuga.yshi.org/post/show/20247/animated-beams-debris-effects-explosions-fighting- https://sakuga.yshi.org/post/show/20248/animated-effects-fighting-go-_princess_precure-kaz TheKawaiiZombie said: Studio Pierrot isn't much better, they also do shit jobs, look how they adapted Naruto, Bleach and Tokyo Ghoul. At least Pierrot do top notch openings though. Other than fillers, how were they handled badly? actually precure was also in bad shape when Rie Matsumoto wasnt directing it. It's only last year where precure's production quality genuinely went up (but other series suffered as a result) |

_Yato_God said: Why is that toei makes so much revenue? They have a lot of successful and big franchises. One of the oldest/biggest studios. Always have their anime on great TV slots which = high TV ratings= $$$ Their movies and merchandise make a lot of money too and they have properties over them like one piece for example. |
