Funimation "anime production committees"

They're late to the game then. Crunchy and Netflix have been infesting production committees for years now.

Can't 'discuss' as the content has restricted excess unless op wants to limit the topic to Amerifats only.

I tried to warn them, but they wouldn't listen. Enjoy your trannies and niggers in every anime from now on Yas Forumsutists

I wish it were still April 1st so it would be obvious how infected everyone ITT is. Only crossboarders care about this shit.

>ultimatemegax
literally 'eddit
funi is based in texas unfortunately

So what does this mean for the future of the industry? I find it very hard to believe foreign committee members like Funi, Crunchy or Netflix will be given that much say in any show targeted at the domestic Japanese audience, unless they aren't i.e Neo Yokio, Castlevania etc. or they put up all of the money for the production, which seems improbable

Anyone that supports FUNIMATION isn't an anime fan. Just like fun viewers, they're casuals. Not fans of anime, just fans of Dragon Bitch, which are already the cesspool of Yas Forums.

DB fans should be excommunicated, along with MHA tards.

OP is promoting the article that's why he made the thread. He wants to give it views.

>Only crossboarders care about this shit.

I've been on Yas Forums since 2005 and why wouldn't I care about people who do nothing but complain about how "problematic" anime is getting say in its production?

>AniMay proDuCers wiLl nEver pAnder to WestErners!
Imagine saying this back in 2008. Where are they now.

>Funimation is trusted by the rest of the committee to use their international expertise to better market the show to foreign viewers and provide more detailed input to the other Japanese companies regarding what fans abroad would like to see.
i.e. tell the creators just how they need to censor themselves and alter their work, so they are in line with intersectional feminism
>For fans, this kind of access means the ability for international partners to collaborate with creators on things like key visuals, PVs and exclusive behind-the-scenes content.
hurray, let's make anime more un-Japanese by giving the shady fucking international partners more power over the creative input
>Anime is no longer focused solely on the Japanese market. Japanese companies are looking to foreign fans’ interest in titles more than ever before to increase the financial return on their investment as well as allow them to reinvest that money into new productions of ever higher animation quality.
"w-we promise, adding the woke faggotry will get you millions of new w*stern fans, just trust our marketing department"

OP here im a britbong, idk why its working for me but not others

You still should have copied the entire article instead of using Yas Forums to give it more hits and ad revenue.

And this is the prime example of a gatekeeping faggot trying to shut down the discussion, because he can't argue in good faith that corporate America (aka p*d*wood) having a hand in the anime production is beneficial for the industry, because it's obviously not.

Hopefully, there will be a split between ONAs made exclusively for the foreign audiences that will be available for streaming and normal anime broadcasted on TV/simulcasted on streaming platforms.

So are you going to copypaste that shit so that it can be read and discussed or not? It's rather odd if for some reason you refuse to do it.

He wants those clicks. B&A it is.

>no but its worth discussing none the less
No it isn't, you absolute retard.
Western companies have been in anime production committees since at least the 80s and have partially been involved in anime production as far back as the 70s.
I swear, you people who complain about the Westernization of anime are clueless. It's been a constant of the industry for decades now.

Am I supposed to care that Funimation is a part of anime production committees when countless Western companies have done the same thing over the years?

I don't fucking care

OP doesn't want to discuss. He just want to increase the view count for that article.

Aren't Funimation the guys who said Goblin Slayer was AOTD? Lol

Fuck off and go back Yas Forums faggot.

Yes. BECAUSE IF YOU CAN'T EVEN FUCKING PUT IN THE WORK TO TYPESET PROPERLY EVEN IF JUST AFTER THE FACT, WHAT THE FUCK IS THE POINT IN PAYING MONEY TO SEE MORE ANIME?
Please unsubscribe if you haven't already. Not because of this, but because you shouldn't have bothered in the first place after seeing them not giving a fuck.

OP blown the fuck out

Since OP is a faggot.

>You may recognize the terms: co-production, “co-pro” or “on the committee for” coming from an overseas distributor of anime. But what does that really mean? And how does it benefit you as an anime fan?

So let’s talk about anime production committees, and the roles they play in the process. Because the more we learn about the anime we love, the more we can support those who create it.

One misconception some have with anime is that the animation studio is responsible for producing everything related to an anime production, including home video releases and merchandise. For the vast majority, that’s not true at all. Almost all anime productions today are financed by something called a production committee. A production committee is a company specifically created to be a joint venture between a group of companies with the dual goals of producing something entertaining that will also recoup its costs and eventually lead to a profit.

In the past, a lot of television anime were funded primarily by the TV station and the lead animation studio. As anime gradually shifted away from airing during prime viewing hours in Japan to the late-night blocks for most titles, the production committee method became a common way to finance the creation of a show.

I doubt that you're not a newfag

There are two main reasons: risks and specialization.

If one company produces something by themselves, they’re the only one on the hook if it fails. Thus, that’s only used for massive “safe” properties and franchises or titles produced by big companies who could afford the loss. If you spread that risk across many companies for titles whose popularity isn’t known ahead of time, then the potential losses are spread out among the group and could be manageable for each company. This is done for the same reason that investors are told to diversify their investments instead of placing 100% of their savings into one asset: diversification reduces risk and generally leads to a net positive return on investment across all assets.

A blow-away success means your company wouldn’t make as much, but that would be an insurance cost to guarantee you aren’t losing a ton of money if the production didn’t bring in the revenue you thought it might. Additionally, producing anime on your own is very challenging if you’re not used to it.

There’s a lot of steps you have to take to produce a new anime: finding cast and staff, promotion, getting someone to broadcast, producing its music, selling its merchandise and home video, and so forth. A company that specializes in printing magazines, comics and novels wouldn’t know the first step in producing music for a show. Having a music production company on the committee allows a print publishing company to focus solely on what they can do while allowing the others to play to their specialty. The music company can then say, “We have this new artist we want to promote, so let’s use them as a vocalist in the show!” or have them as a main character. That benefits both companies at the same time.

How does this work with international partners like Funimation?
Funimation is listed on the production committee for three titles during the Winter 2020 season: Hatena Illusion, ID: INVADED and Plunderer. They’ve also been on the anime production committee for titles like Fruits Basket (2019), Fire Force and Dimension W.

Due to the work they’ve done and the strong relationships the company has built with Japanese partners in licensing shows from them, they were invited to participate on these committees to help fund these productions directly.

Instead of simply licensing the rights to a finished show (as companies usually do), Funimation is now able to take part ownership of some titles directly when bringing them to the rest of the world. There’s no fear about losing the rights to these shows either; they are here to stay in the Funimation library in perpetuity. Conversely, Funimation is trusted by the rest of the committee to use their international expertise to better market the show to foreign viewers and provide more detailed input to the other Japanese companies regarding what fans abroad would like to see. It’s a win-win.

For fans, this kind of access means the ability for international partners to collaborate with creators on things like key visuals, PVs and exclusive behind-the-scenes content. For example, co-productions between Funimation and KADOKAWA have led to new key visuals for titles like ID: INVADED and Plunderer. This access can also sometimes allow for faster subtitling and dubbing production, leading to an increase in the number of “day and date” simulcasts/SimulDubs which air within 24 hours of Japan’s initial TV broadcast.

Anime is no longer focused solely on the Japanese market. Japanese companies are looking to foreign fans’ interest in titles more than ever before to increase the financial return on their investment as well as allow them to reinvest that money into new productions of ever higher animation quality. This means that subscriptions to Funimation and purchases of home video releases, digital downloads, and merchandise supervised by Funimation will help creators in Japan more directly than having a finished title licensed as-is would.

And while it’s only been a handful of titles in the past, there’s a future where Funimation and companies like it are on the production committee for more and more shows. The more involved they get in helping these shows resonate around the world, the stronger these relationships grow, and the more people get to experience the brilliance of anime. That’s a future we’re here for!

Not that the topic was anything really worth much but the way OP avoided copying the article for the very discussion he claim to want is suspicious as fuck.
