The Association of Japanese Animators conducts a yearly study of industry earnings, calculating data from roughly 150 significant anime-related companies. It’s just released its 2019 report, which found that for the sixth year in a row, the total size of the anime industry grew. This also marks the sixth year in a row the industry reached a new all-time high, with the most recent study reporting industry-wide earnings of 2.1814 trillion yen (US$10.939 billion).

Another historic first: revenue from overseas totaled 1.0092 trillion yen, cracking the one-trillion yen mark for the first time, with overseas theatrical screening and anime-related video game sales mentioned as major contributors. That figure indicates that 46 percent of revenue came from outside Japan, making the overseas market nearly as important as the Japanese one for the anime industry.

I hope my fave anime gets remade one day. Not many people know it.

Also, Super Pig needs to be remade too.

Stream death note on netflix fatties (the anime not the awful movie) those who haven‘t seen it. It‘s better than a lot of non-animated shows

That's really good to hear after many years were they did not get much at all, but had to get a ton of work done :diane: Nice to see these changes happening. Slowly, but it's happening.

You can also tell that the animation quality gets better because of it, because suddenly they make money with it and have a good budget.

I love Death Note. But it kinda felt off at the end. Near and Mellow annoyed me. Still love the show though.

Does it matter? Damage is done

Interesting that the industry is bigger than ever while Studio Ghibli is still considering shutting down because they can't make enough money :triggered: Maybe this is more about studios lowering production costs than it is audience's watching more
