I really loved all of ImageEpoch's PSP offerings, their games all had so much soul. Thank you for covering this! I'd love to hear more about Furyu as well if you're ever thinking of doing another deepdive on a similar company.

I'm glad you found the video interesting! Their PSP offerings were truly unique for what they were. I don't know if there's as much to talk about for Furyu but I do remember some of their games being really interesting too so I'll keep a note of it and look into it as well!

Thanks for the video to give some peeking what happening in comiket Comiket always fascinating me as someone who adore japanese pop culture, also one of motivation to attend my local fan-merch market I think comiket become much more approachable with many foreigners live there (also anime fans) it's easy to have friend as guidance when visiting japan especially to attend event Some of my friend also get table to sell their art there UmaMusu and Blue archive really impressive fandom keep their name on the top I always smile found some post from my friend grief how they can't make mature content of UmaMusu when their design soo ero LOL And blue archive really remind me of kancolle in peak popularity with easy design to fanart, good enough freedom for people to interpreted, and some quirk as meme material (also bunny looking character making their famous) Really appreciate you video, thanks

Yea it does feel like especially recently they have stepped up the number of English speaking stuff and (maybe) seemed to have made it a lot easier for foreigners to apply for comiket as I've been seeing a lot more chinese and korean circles so I can see it being even more approachable than before XD Glad to hear your friends managed to get a table there a hd hope it wasn't too rough being in there the whole time since the weather can be a lil whacked With BA and Umamusume it really does feel quite impressive since their userbase really isn't the biggest compared to some other titles but for some reason their comiket presence just happens to be insanely big still. That said, glad you enjoyed the video!

Hey, do you think you could talk about Afterschool Summoners? I hear it ranks pretty high on a lot of metrics, profit charts, etc. but I don’t see it discussed a lot. Is it really just that furries are that rich, or is there something else at play?

I looked at some of the data I have access to because this is a title tbh I don't think anyone around me has ever talked about. To be fair though, it might just be because of the space that the game is in being completely different from what I usually play since it's a mix of heavy bara-kei and kemona stuff as well. From the data I looked at in terms of raw revenue n app store ranking in specifically Japan it's around 500 - 600 on average with a one time top 100 so it's not doing even Mahjong souls numbers nor close to the usual bishoujou nor bushounen games. BUT unlike many of those games from what I understand Afterschool Summoners is made by a doujin group so I can imagine the margins in terms of profitability may be quite high in spite of the fact that the revenue may not be the highest. DAU-wise I'm not as sure, I'd have to check global numbers to see for sure but it does do decently.

I find it strange that there’s so little coverage on the Sega lawsuit against Memento Mori compared to the Nintendo vs. Pocket Pair case. When Nintendo was involved in a lawsuit with Palworld, there was an overwhelming amount of coverage across KZbin, Reddit, and other platforms. But when I search for the Sega lawsuit against Memento Mori, I can barely find any information. It’s odd, especially given how much attention Nintendo lawsuits tend to get. What stands out to me is the cherry-picking of which cases get attention. If people are so quick to criticize Nintendo for a patent dispute, why isn’t the same level of scrutiny being applied to Sega? Shouldn't we expect equal treatment for all companies involved in legal disputes, regardless of their size or the companies involved? If one company faces backlash for its actions, shouldn't others be held to the same standard? It feels like there’s an inconsistency in how these cases are covered. If we're going to criticize a major company like Nintendo for taking legal action, we should be just as critical, or at least equally aware, when similar actions are taken by other companies like Sega. This kind of disparity in coverage just reinforces the idea that certain companies are treated differently based on popularity or bias rather than on the fairness of their legal actions. Thank you for covering both cases. This something I just needed to get off my chest.

It feels like Nintendo just has a more polarised image because of all the issues they've had with the smash tournament and their treatment of fans in general so people tend to pick up on negative Nintendo content more and many Nintendo fans probably have a very negative impression of Pocket Pair so it blew up a lot easier especially because of how Pocket Pair put it into the public limelight with their marketing reach. This likely caused it to reach more eyes than the Sega v BOI one where the reach would only be as far as BOI can get it instead but yea, personally it feels like neither are good for the industry more for the precedence than anything else though the fact that people only pick up on the Nintendo one is a lil sad, it feels like if on an overall a more solid stance existed on all of these type of patents in general there could actually be change affected on these practices if anything.

Not only is Kim Jihoon a fan of hypergryph, but in turn lowloght is the same for projectmoon , which lowlght mentioned on cn sns after the collab was announced, referring to himself as an 80-year fan of projectmoon in a humorous tone,while mentioning that the last fanart he post on x was an arknights character in lobotomy corporation.Arknights in the choice of collabs ip most also follow lowlight's personal interests, such as destiny2 and R6S, when arknights has not yet been released lowlght even live broadcast R6S,and he posted content on the sns often use destiny2 meme.Unfortunately, this time only limbus company has one-way collab, cn communities speculate that this is mostly related to the limbus's age rating of 18+.

Ken Akamastu and Hideaki Anno the director of neon genisis evengilion with other diet menbers launched a new manga archiving project backup up government way bigger than manga library z.bA really good news. As for credit cards nintendo also dropped any kind of payment processing of foreign countries. Nintendo gave the reason to stop scalpers but i think it's still a really big decision. I think there is more to this story.

Nintendo being Nintendo it's hard to get a read on them though the original switch in Japan did have a lot of stocking issues due to the scalpers from China so on the one hand I can kinda see it but at the same time, if that was their goal it feels like they'd have done it earlier. That said, glad to hear that they are working on a new manga archiving project though. Would be a waste to see it all disappear because of some rogue corporate actions from the credit card companies.

this video is great but somehow made me even more confused in the wake of the ensemble stars x project sekai collab. it feels like the perfect thing to avoid on the "collabing with an overlapping competitor" point. it's so weird
@overworkedsalaryman
@overworkedsalaryman 7 күн бұрын
@@Snogard45 With those it does feel more confusing for sure. We can only speculate on why but at the very least the fact that the target audience isn't a full overlap makes it both make a lil more sense tho less sense at the same time as it feels like project sekai has a fairly balanced gender ratio so there is likely to be a fair part of the player base that'd ignore the collab outright. At the same time I feel like with crypton or just the vocaloid brand in general they're prolly confident enough to not be worried about overlap and some level of DAU leakage since the content creator space and the sheer variety of music in project sekai which is fairly different from ensemble stars style and target audience makes it less threatening to them perhaps
