Most companies consider anything close to that, for reference according to the sales thread on this forum, companies like J.C. Staff have NEVER, not even once had a series that averaged as high as this, KyoAni's worst (On Record) performing series since the last season of Haruhi. And since we haven't heard any news of major expansions to the studio, or new expenses, there REALLY is no reason for any of this.

Thanks for the info.
I think I see the problem then. Sheer decadence/hubris. KyoAni is so hugely successful vis a vis other animation studios that they feel like they can just take it easy, and the money will keep flowing in. Of course, they may very well be right...
