Lack of imagination and interest in anything more than making money from producers by pandering to audiences they think are an easy sell is ruining the industry more than any specific audience. Producers have too much power over the animation making process, story, ideas that can be approved, staff choices, cast choices, pretty much you name if it's important and the number one thought on their mind is how can I use this to make money, not will this idea work and produce a quality product or how will this idea conflict with another idea.

So yeah greedy producers with limited priorities that operate something more akin to a snake oil salesmen than a project overseer are ruining the industry.
>>
>>124026547

So? They're still a tiny minority compared to the fujoshits. Why are you even trying to deny this? Statistics say the readership of yaoi crap is 80%+ female in Japan.
>>
>>124025032

Man it's really obvious that it is true. People that just buy shit because the characters look hot and talk about how hot a character is and how it arouses them are all equally "land whales" ripe for the poaching and exploitation in the eyes of the industries producers.

Here, retard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoi

>Although sometimes conflated with yaoi by Western commentators, gay men's manga or gei comi, also called Men's Love (ML) in Japan and bara in English, caters to a gay male audience rather than a female one and tends to be produced primarily by homosexual and bisexual male artists (such as Gengoroh Tagame) and serialized in gay men's magazines.[47] Bara is an even smaller niche genre in Japan than yaoi manga.[48] Considered a subgenre of seijin (men's erotica) for gay males, bara more closely resembles comics for men (seinen) rather than comics written for female readers (shōjo/josei).[citation needed] Few titles have been licensed or scanlated for English-language markets.

Fujoshi are an insignificant part of the anime industry and will never be in a position to ruin it. You have to face the possibility that you are in fact gay and are looking for gay content.

>>124025277
Gay men aren't a hivemind.

>>124027536

That bara is a genre which caters exclusively to GAY MEN. Yaoi and fujo pandering caters to women.

>>124027655
And how does that lead to gay men doesn't like fujobait?

Some of them do, but the majority don't. They don't like girly faggotry, they like manly faggotry.

And where are you pulling this from? Saying that bara magazines target gay men doesn't prove shit. It's like saying girls don't like shonen because they are suppose to like shojo instead, even though the shonen audience has been dominated by the female demographic for a while now.

The only way you can somewhat prove your statement is if you have a source where there are many fudanshi posting their disgust about fujobait.

and by volume there is less fujoshi to buy things and there always will be.

Yes, and the fact that some girls like it don't have anything to do with what I'm saying. It's the actual statistics about the demographics that matter. Yaoi is aimed at women and has a predominant female readership.

> because most of the bara drawings are done by girls.

Source?

Anyway, the 80%+ figure is actually from Thailand and yaoi conventions held in the West actually. I wasn't remembering it very well, but I'm going to assume the same applies to Japan too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaoi_fandom

>Most yaoi fans are either teenage girls or young women. The female readership in Thailand is estimated at 80%,[6] and the membership of Yaoi-Con, a yaoi convention in San Francisco, is 85% female.

And here's the part which is supposed to settle this argument once and for and all:

>Lunsing suggests that younger Japanese gay men who are offended by gay men's magazines' "pornographic" content may prefer to read yaoi instead.[16] That is not to say that the majority of homosexual men are fans of the genre, as some are put off by the feminine art style or unrealistic depictions of homosexual life and instead seek "Gei comi" (Gay comics), manga written by and for homosexual men,[7] as gei comi is perceived to be more realistic.[17] Lunsing notes that some of the narrative annoyances that homosexual men express about yaoi manga, such as rape, misogyny, and an absence of a Western-style gay identity, are also present in gei comi.[7] Some male manga artists have produced yaoi works, using their successes in yaoi to then go on to publish gei comi.

There is a tendency in the manga media to label anything that might appeal to guys as shounen rather than shoujo. There is this blockage I guess, women are more likely to read a shounen than boys are to read a shoujo even if the story sounds like something that would appeal to them. There are some good articles about this written in japanese.

It's basically for financial gain.

Go to pixiv, search series with lots of bara drawings, (ie. Toriko or Jojo) or you can search 薔薇, but no one actually uses this tag. Go through all the picture you deem to be bara, check the artist's gender, find that most of them are female.
