| uuh Google exist... but let's try without doing any of it. - TV Rights - Commercials Revenue - Merchandise Sales - Blu-Ray Sales - Drama CD Sales (sometimes) - Tickets Sales (For movies) Well for starters because a lot of anime are tv show same as sports, I'm just gonna draw conclusions they will earn revenue the same way. |

| i'd further add that the anime companies get money from merchandise provided 1) the merch is legit (and not a bootleg) 2) it's new (and not a used copy/second hand) |

| I'm sure that commercials revenue goes to the TV network/streaming platform that bought the license from the production committee. Less frequent sources are crowdfunding and government subsidies (e.g. when an anime promotes a city, activity, general interest in Japanese culture etc.) |

Same as buying groceries from the supermarket: you can say that the money goes to the owner of the supermarket, but he in turn bought the goods from the farmer. Illegal sites instead stole from the farmer. |

| How the money is split: 96% Kadokawa 1% studio 5% original creator |

Watching it on legal sites doesn't mean the creators get money either, it just goes to the streaming service. Only way in which the money goes directly to the creators is through merchandise sales. In fact you are just wrong, legal streaming sites give more back to the industry than merch itself, as seen from the yearly reports from the association of Japanese animators, we can see that overseas streaming is the largest source of revenue for the anime industry, even more than merch and tv ads. And this is made obvious when we look that the cost to license a single series can be up to hundreds of thousands of dollars per episode. |

| 1. The studios make their money from the production committees (aside if they are part of a production committee themselves). 2. The production committees (usually the rights owner participates in such) make their money from: - Direct sales of the product: BDs, movie tickets (if we are talking about a movie) and licenses for streaming services. - Sales of song singles and OST albums. - Merchandise. - Promotion of the source materiel (if any). 3. TV stations (aside if they are part of a production committee). - The commercials which they air along the show. The revenues from those depend on the said show's rating. 4. Streaming services (aside if they are part of a production committee). - Monthly fee. |

First of all, your first source only has one category "overseas" which includes everything from TV licenses to merch, streaming only being a small part of it, and half of the streaming revenue comes from Naruto/Boruto alone. Secondly, this money goes to the right holders, NOT to the creators, you might think that's the same and that most of it goes to the creators anyway but that's not the case. |
atxt said: The creators can literally just refer to the production committee, and it's the production committee who start most of the anime projects we know. And besides sometimes the studio itself is in the production committee, meaning they will be receiving a potion of that licensing money.

And merch is a seperate category, I think overseas refers mostly to streaming, other types of licenses, and other stuff like anime movies that screen on theaters. |

| What everybody said, with the added mention of a heavy handed dose of target audience pandering. Anime would hardly sell to the lowest common denominator, if: - it wasn't all about flattering the youth, telling that they're the future and all the geezers are incompetent and evil jizzbags. - It wasn't mostly about bankais and empowerment fantasy for the happy imbeciles who love to self insert. - There wasn't any gratuitous gore fanservice and exaggerated expressionism for the edgelords. - There wasn't any waifus and bishounens for the ones who expect to simp or go full shiptard while getting on with their entertainment. |

| Buying manga is a good way to support the author. It's cheaper than buying figurines and stuff too. Whenever I like an anime a lot and want to support the creator I just buy it's manga albeit just one volume but I do lol. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |

Same as buying groceries from the supermarket: you can say that the money goes to the owner of the supermarket, but he in turn bought the goods from the farmer. Illegal sites instead stole from the farmer. And even if they keep a large portion of the money, which makes sense since they're a business not a charity, it doesn't erase the fact that your subscription money is going back to the industry, contrary to popular belief, merch isn't the largest source of revenue for the anime industry (at least not anymore). And besides companies like Funimation and Crunchyroll literally produce anime, meaning they are using your subscription money to fund the production of new anime. And it's also important to notice that Crunchyroll and Funimation are both owned by Aniplex which is the largest anime production company out there, which could mean part of your subscription money would also be making its way to the shows Aniplex produces. |
