Heh, what he needs to do is try to ruin his franchise at every turn. His popularity with sky rocket instead and the franchise will do even better.

Worked for Tomino

Kaijo · 2011-02-13, 17:43

So not only does he need to kill Nanoha, but everyone else, too? Hey, I think we stumbled upon the real reason for the Hucks!

People keep saying that, without ever offering any proof, so I tend to disregard it.

Ah, the Charlie Sheen effect. (Wikipedia hasn't added it, but it fits)

Bonus points: acquire depression at the same time. People will call you edgy when it was all entirely an accident!

He needs a better animation studio if he ever hopes to make something so popular again.

Seven Arcs is pretty good, honestly. StrikerS was just their first twenty six episode anime, so some wonkiness was to be expected.

00-Raiser · 2011-02-13, 18:10

Then once he gets over the depression, it shall be glorious!

Also, Inukami was their first 26 episode series.

We have to look at their track record. Nanoha is their only anime that did not fail hard in terms of profitability. Inukami may of done relatively okay, but if it did, that's the only other one. Even Nanoha had sub par sales until A's rolled over.

00-Raiser · 2011-02-13, 18:43

Sekirei and White Album both did well enough to get 2nd seasons, as did Asura Cryin'.

aers · 2011-02-13, 18:46

S1 didn't really have sub-par sales.

With regards to their other series failing hard, White Album did. Sekirei did ok.

As did Nanoha S1, with a measly 4k+ sales. Perhaps they did well enough to break even and try again? But it certainly wasn't a good investment.

Justin_Brett · 2011-02-13, 19:50

Well, first actiony 26 episode series?

00-Raiser · 2011-02-13, 20:13

Inukami had plenty of action in it. Not to mention being absolutely hilarious.

Honestly speaking, I'd say Asura Cryin' is Seven Arc's best work.

Come to think of it, though, Nanoha is Seven Arc's only original anime work. Everything else they've done have been based off something else (manga, light novel, or h-game).

Justin_Brett · 2011-02-13, 22:13

Well, I dunno then. Maybe it's because they had stuff to go on from the VNs?

Fate marries Anonymous, Nanoha slowly dies of magic poisoning, years later Vivio finds out she is actually in love with Yuuno and her heart cannot lie about it. Signum have a child with Erio, Hayate runs for the election of Mid Premier and get JFKed by a loonie, consequently crazy conspiracy theorists will imagine all kind of conspiracies about him (he is not employed by terrorists, anti-magiocracy activists, or belkan supremacists. ~~He was a stalker who took his crush over Hayate way too far~~). Rein Zwei takes over the power vacuum left by Hayate and in her desire to do her meister justice, eventually get elected and appointed herself as the Führer, for life. Effectively ruling Mid with an iron fist. *Starship Troopers News Anchor Voice* Would you like to know more?

Well, Tempy *DID* write a fic where Erio knocked Signum up.

It's quite enjoyable.

Well, from a more neutral perspective, Erio is now a young man and Signum is like 900+ years old anyways, so yeah, it's quite plausible(it reminds me of the people who ships Rin x Sesshomaru in Inuyasha claiming that as a long living youkai Sessho-sama can simplay wait until she grows xDU).

I really doubt that. There is no way Dog Days will become a cash cow. Maybe I will be positively surprised but so far it seems like another ultra generic harem that sells 3k and gets forgotten next season.

Nanoha on the other hand is still incredibly popular. Movie sold incredibly well. Goods at Comiket sold out incredibly fast. Vivid is selling fine. There is no way they will suddenly abandon such a popular franchise.

But I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Force anime. It's selling bad, it gets lots of criticism, doujin authors ignore it, etc. Chances for anime are pretty much nonexistent. Especially since they are concentrating on the movies.

Actually, I've seen more doujins for Force than ViVid.

Still very few compared with StrikerS one who are still coming up one after another xDU, the ones i watched of FORCe can be counted in one hand.

But you indeed have a point with ViVid, somehow doujins about that are practically non-existent(probably for the better xDU).
