>WIT studio about to have another blockbuster on their hands
Seriously, has any studio ever found so much success early on as them?
>>138958867
Where's the indication this is going to be a huge hit?
>>138958867
>success
>Rolling Girls 1,247
>Owari no Seraph 3,823
>Owari no Seraph Nagoya Kessen-hen 2,565
More like got lucky, guess we should be calling them one WIT wonders.
>>138959052
His ass. Japs are pretty meh about it and only stupid Americunts give a shit.
No, but they were formed to make shows like this. So their success is thanks to I.G
Trigger? They're new as hell and the fact that they have two original hits under their belt is pretty noteworthy.
>>138958867
How the fuck do you know this is going to be a blockbuster? All signs indicate the opposite
They're the best studio when it comes to animated PV and nothing else.

Fucking Carlos.
>>138959153
So they're the Zack Snyder of anime.
>>138959053
Only show that got lucky with sales and success is Hoozuki. The team working on this is the heart of WIT and is hired for making the next big thing
>>138959053
It's sad because Rolling Girls is by far their best show.
>>138959212
Nah, Hozuki is.
>>138959108
>two original hits
Only one is KLK and even then it was just a mild success.
>>138959196
>Only show that got lucky with sales and success is Hoozuki.
That would be SnK since they proved fucking DEEN could animate that shit and still be a top seller.
>The team working on this is the heart of WIT
Kek
>>138959212
Not really. It was a pretty awful with the music being the only somewhat worthwhile thing about it.
>>138959299
So already better than everything else they have done? My point.
I like them. I keep them on my radar each season if they have a show. Along with Madhouse and I.G
>>138959292
Little Witch Academia was big enough for me to call it a hit.
Hey, anyone remember all the hype for Guilty Crown? Production IG animating, The guy from Code Geass writing, Supercell doing the music...
Yep, looking forward to dropping this show every week all season
>>138959153
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sOVXyvbN90
Ohhh, Hal! Rock solid premise utterly ruined by the movie's ending! Good LORD!
>>138959052
>>138959088
After the theater showings for the first few episodes it has become the most talked about thing leading into next season.
We only know that the first 3 episodes are somewhere in the area of decent-good. Could drop off after 4 .
>>138959108
>WIT is going to molest Trigger in sales again next season
It will be so glorious
>>138959053
>More like got lucky
This. Nobody would give two shits about WIT if it wasn't for SnK infact them being an offshoot of the Guilty Crown staff means people would give even less of a shit about them and wouldn't be defending them all the damn time.
>>138959375
>Hey, anyone remember all the hype for Guilty Crown? Production IG animating, The guy from Code Geass writing, Supercell doing the music...
yeah this is that same team that got their own studio because of that show.
>>138959530
I don't get studio fanaticism but you do you, anon.
>>138959464
>it has become the most talked about thing leading into next season.
Why do WITfags constantly lie out their asses?
>>138959464
It didn't even trend after the premiere.
>>138959088
Japs have the worst taste though.
In Japan, stupid shit like Date a Live is popular.
>All these haters
WIT isn't going anywhere anytime soon. They have become Pony Canyons go to studio
>>138959556
Train wreck confirmed
Buckle up
>WIT's already one of the shitposted studios next to Trigger and KyoAni
Based WIT
hmm I say 9-13k vol 1 sales until proven otherwise
>>138959630
Not liking a shit anime from Araki and Okouchi from a shit studio means you have bad taste
Okay
>>138959644
>They have become Pony Canyons go to studio
I feel sorry for Pony Canyon, at least A-1 get a hit 3 out of 5 times a year.
>>138959053
>one WIT wonders
If this wasn't factually incorrect, I'd like it to catch on.
Just call them Production IG.
>>138959699
20-26k anon. Get your shit togther
>>138958867
The artstyle is cancer, so I hope it flops.
>>138959806
This you faggots
They were made to put more money into I.G's pocket. Best show next season is also Joker Game.
>>138959828
What style should it have been?
>>138959716
Where did you get that from my post?
I'm saying that the fact that Japan likes it or not is not a good indication of the series quality.
Hell, even if the majority of /a/ likes it or not is not a good indication because /a/ enjoys series such as Rakudai.
>>138959880
A cute moe style of course.
>>138959916
>>138959916
I hope you're joking and not this guy here
>>138959828
If you are this guy and aren't joking, please give me your name and address so I can go there and kick your ass.
If you live in Europe however, you're going to have to fly to Canada and meet me at downtown Toronto. Be sure to hold a big sign saying "Kick my ass!" so I know who you are.
Thanks.
>>138959957
Dude...
Wow Itsa Trainwreck
Just watched the PV for this. I can see where it has a huge shot at success but they're going to have to give people a reason to buy it. Good bundles and shit.
>138959916
This is moeshit
>>138960097
>I can see where it has a huge shot at success but they're going to have to give people a reason to buy it
That goes for every anime dumbass. This ain't special at all
>>138960191
Anon fuck off. I can tell you don't want this to succeed but calm your autism
>>138958867
It's not even going to hit 10k.
I just want it to be successful because I like seeing /a/ mad.
>>138960097
In recent years, "great production value" is not enough to make a show sell a lot anymore.
Besides, we don't even know can WIT hold the quality after episode 3.
>>138959544
I don't give two shits about ripoff called SnK and its shitty writing. Say what you want but WIT is one of the best animation studios
>>138959348
> I keep them on my radar each season if they have a show. Along with Madhouse and I.G
This
>>138960097
You mean like Osomatsu-san?
>>138959644
And Bones is close to go bankrupt. They have big debt.
>>138960296
>Say what you want but WIT is one of the best animation studios
Holy shit anon please stop. Did you even watch SnK when it was airing in TV?
>>138960296
>Say what you want but WIT is one of the best animation studios
Wasn't people saying the first 3 episodes were better animated than some movie that was out in theaters or something? The team has talent despite what fags think. Scheduling is the big factor here.
>>138960296
>WIT is one of the best animation studios
You guys make this far too easy.
>inb4 B-b-b-b-but they fixed
>>138960412
They don't. Kekkai Sensen and Show by Rock were enough to make up for Captain Earth and Space Dandy.
>>138959896
>I'm saying that the fact that Japan likes it or not is not a good indication of the series quality
This
At least /a/ has better taste than cancer called MAL
>>138960444
>Wasn't people saying the first 3 episodes were better animated than some movie that was out in theaters or something?
Yeah...Digimon Tri from fucking Toei
>>138960296
Come on, anon. I'm a huge WITfag but I won't call them one of the best animation studios.
>>138960296
>WIT is one of the best animation studios
Kill yourself.
>>138960424
>Did you even watch Rolling Girls when it was airing in TV?
>Did you even watch Seraph when it was airing in TV?
I'm sensing a pattern here
>>138960583
Jesus christ I can't tell which one looks worse.
This is basically WIT trying to see if they can find a show to alternate between when they're not making SNK
>>138960702
It's more like
>People like SnK, right?
>So let's make more SnK, except not really!
>>138960585
Yeah a fag who has bias against WIT for some butthurt reason
>>138960737
Money talks anon
>>138960283
They can't, just look at their past shows. They start to look like hot garbage past the first half of the season.
>>138960585
>>138960746
samefag
>>138960781
It does, and there's a legitimate strategy regarding making knockoffs of what sells.
The shamelessness of it all is still hilarious.
>>138959630
He's lying you dumb shithead.
This will be the best animated show of the season. Writing and other stuff? Don't know about that.
Only one of the Bones shows or Joker Game will have production values potentially better.
>>138961472
>This will be the best animated show of the season
That's quite the bold claim. Did you forget Gundam Unicorn is also airing this season faggot?
Sunrise always wins. Never forget.
>>138961472
It's like you don't know any of WIT other works.
>>138961533
It will probably look decent but no where near the OVA's. This, Hero Academia and Joker game will blow it out of the water.
>>138961533
Gundam never is the best animated show of any season. Sunrise will win spring, yes, but only because it's fucking Gundam.
>>138958867
>Seriously, has any studio ever found so much success early on as them?
Eight of KyoAni's first ten TV anime broke 10k.
>>138961766
they were formed around 1991 though and didn't really get off until 2003.
>>138961668
>It will probably look decent but no where near the OVA's.
They're literally airing the re-edited version of the seven OVAs with some additional footage. Quality will remain the same.
>>138961883
oh in that case it's soulless rehash that shouldn't be counted.
>>138961812
KyoAni used to be a Sunrise slave until their big breakout in 2003, WIT studio is pretty much just another extension of Production IG.
>>138961668
>Cliche battle school shounen not flopping
Where do all this cancerous anons come from? youtube ? mal ? reddit ?
>>138959775
A-1 usually works with series that are already huge gits before they even get there hands on them so the comparison isn't really the same. Either that or they work with staffers that have enough fan boys that it guarantees them at least something
>>138958867

>>138959998
What? I just want to kick your ass.
Nothing wrong with that.
>>138962191
Out of all the big studios out there, only KyoAni works with literally who works.
>>138960489
Leftover assets from Guilty Grown?
>>138961812
Eh, there's not much difference between being a grunt work studio and a subdivision of another studio, honestly.

There's at least 1 school battle harem every season, Infinite Stratos and Mahouka aired years ago and are quite literally the only series that have done well in the past 10 years.

Always bet on fujoshi.

>>138962893
IS was 5 years ago retoid. Literally 3 years from 1 successful battle harem to the next.
>>138962512
>cliche SnK ripoff not flopping
I don't know about this at all. A big thing going around when SnK was first airing was "if this was an Original Anime would it have sold even more?" Because the only way to enjoy the series would have been through the anime.
And it's fact now that the anime has been the biggest reason in SnK as franchise becoming a behemoth in the industry
>>138961472
>This will be the best animated show of the season.
Yeah,for two episodes
>>138962430
Literally no one in Japan is hyped for this show. Females are looking forward to Stray Dogs and Sakamoto next season.
>>138962940
>Literally 3 years from 1 successful battle harem to the next.
DxD was in 2012, actually I think Freezing did well in 2011 also.
>>138958867
Man, they really going all out with Rail Wars season 2.
>>138963084
Are you really trying to prove the school battle harem genre issuccessful when it's pretty clear it's not?
>>138962959
>A big thing going around when SnK was first airing was "if this was an Original Anime would it have sold even more?"
Are you fucking stupid? SnK sold well primarily because IT WAS ALREADY FUCKING POPULAR TO BEGIN WITH, if it was an original it would have sold even less due to the fact that it had no establish fanbase to support it.
>>138962959
>And it's fact now that the anime has been the biggest reason in SnK as franchise becoming a behemoth in the industry
Snk was already fucking popular before the anime you fucking idiot.
>>138963125
He just proved your dumbass wrong by listing 4 examples within 6 years. There's probably more too.
>>138963128
The manga tripled in sales after the anime became big. Going from 400k vol sales to a 1 million average. The anime is the source of the franchises overall success. Basically it put it out there more so than anything.
These are facts don't argue. Just google.
>>138962959
>I don't know about this at all. A big thing going around when SnK was first airing was "if this was an Original Anime would it have sold even more?"
I seriously hope you're fucking joking because that has got to be the stupidest thing I've heard on /a/ in a damn while.
>>138963182
Go ahead, list them all. List all the critically acclaimed and hugely successful series from this money printing machine called school battle harem. I'll wait
>>138963248
Well I'd say it makes since. Seeing as how the damn team behind SnK is making an original rip-off

They got greedy just because all the shitters loved SnK and decided to clone it to hope and get the same riches from SnK to this.
I'll watch it but I can't see it being something that will be on the AOTY list. How is the SnK creator not even angry by this.
I wish they made more Hozuki instead.

Getting tired of this meme. They use to be one the 9 in house sections of I.G. Until I.G and port I.G came together and saw potential success in making them their own studio.
And what do you know? It turned out to be a grand idea. Basically, if they weren't good they wouldn't have been one of I.Gs main teams and then given their own studio. They would be making in-between animations and video game animations like I.Gs shitter sections.
>>138962430
Based fujolords
>>138963557
>How is the SnK creator not even angry by this.
Probably because not even what he did is an original concept? He's said several times that he's taken a lot of inspiration from other works.
>>138963624
>Basically, if they weren't good they wouldn't have been one of I.Gs main teams and then given their own studio.
You do realize studios like DEEN, BeeTrain, LIDEN,etc. were offshoots of studios right? This means nothing
>>138963624
Their portfolio isn't exactly jaw dropping with only SnK being successful. They also always start with great animation but run out of budget after the first 4 episodes.
>>138963336
>SnK was already close to 1 million average before the anime came out.
This
>>138963766
Animation is never the problem with them. It's the poeople they hire for writing, characterization and dialogue they struggle with. And if for some reason you want to nitpick their animation it would be scheduling. Not that they don't know what proper animation is suppose to look like like
>>138959153
Maybe they'll be good.
If you gave them a whole lot of budget so that they can just be consistent.
Consistency is their main problem anyway.
I miss Gonzo.
>>138964052
>Consistency is their main problem anyway.
It's called scheduling actually. So they don't need to rush things.
>>138964041
How is Animation not a problem? Their shows look subpar for most of the season.
>>138964041
>Animation is never the problem with them
You really are deluded
>>138964052
If you gave any studio unlimited budget they'd all do wonders.
>>138964101
They're doing Ao Kana. Kinda unspectacular anime show. Cute but really forgettable.
>>138964108
Scheduling is included in that anyway. But yeah, just trying to beat the clock won't do anyone any good.
>>138964150
I didn't say unlimited. I just said a whole lot. I was thinking maybe x2 or x3 the usual.
>>138963457
>There's been other SnK ripoffs
For something to be SnK ripoff , SnK needs to be original in first place , which it isn't.
>>138964153
Let me clarify.
I miss old Gonzo.
The Gonzo everyone loved to hate.
The Gonzo that didn't know how to control themselves and did everything with a heaping dose of insane and fuck you I do what I want.
KyoAni > Production IG
>>138964306
shit>KyoAni
>>138964306
Can't argue with that. KyoAni is God-tier studio.
>>138964239
Why would SNK need to be original in order for it to be ripped off?
>>138964112
>>138964122
I've yet to see majority of people who watched a WIT show complain about animation at all besides you people. Which honestly, looking at your posts I see some deep bias that I have no idea originates from.
After watching shows like GC, Hal and Seraph writing and characters all way down what could have been.
Seriously, tell me teams that just have "amazing animations" on on every work?
>KyoAni
Please stop. They have good artists but none of their shows hardly ever demand heavy action scenes. And the ones that do are nothing to gloat about. I still commend them on what their able to put out. But they never put out shows that would demand crazy animation.
>>138959365
Only the west gave a shit about it. That's why they had to resort to Kickstarter again. I doubt they'll ever get a series about it nor another movie. Kill la Kill was a hit in both the west and Japan but like Little Witch, I doubt much more will come from those. Trigger's other shows, Inou Battle and Ninja Slayer, are fucking Mediocre as shit with only 2 or 3 scenes being the most memorable things from them. If the high school drama they're airing this year isn't a hit, Trigger's got some major work to do. Their doing 2 5 minute shorts as well but I doubt anyone will care about those. They don't even have movies to fall back on like Kyoani does when they release trash.
>>138964306
Nah I.G actually like to tackle original and unique things. And switch up their art. KyoAni always has the same art and similar stetting. Basically, they're to insecure to venture outside their comfort zone.
>>138964306
Comparing the two is just silly in general. One is an immense corporate studio that works on everything from anime to video games to western projects and so on. The other is a relatively small company that makes two or three TV series and a movie or two every year.
>>138964839
If you look at IG's works, the notable ones all tend to be gritty sci-fi or fantasy. Every studio has a comfort zone that they like to stick to.
>>138959375
>Hey, anyone remember all the hype for Guilty Crown? Production IG animating, The guy from Code Geass writing, Supercell doing the music...
Guilty Crown was written by Yoshino for the most part, who only wrote like three episodes of CG in the first place, so that would be false anyway.

It's not a budget problem, the WIT Studio producers just don't seem to have a problem with rushing the production so things start to get messy after the first few episodes.

It doesn't seem to pander to fujos anyway.
>>138964658
>After watching shows like GC, Hal and Seraph writing and characters all way down what could have been.
All three shows had different writers

I like the stuff they make, but for some reason they don't have big budgets like WIT does.
Which is a shame, I really like their art style.
