So every year, Japan polls little boys and girls on what franchises they're into, the results of these polls giving a good picture of what's currently popular with the kids over there.
Pokemon pops up in these results pretty often, so have a look at a complete chart of the poll results:
Here's the one for boys
And here's the one for girls.
Discuss.
>2014 and 2015 yokai watch

>>24664429
They like youkai because it's literally ancient Japanese memes: the game
![[Mezashite] Aikatsu! - 11 [720p][0D3464EA].mkv_snapshot_16.44_[2014.11.17_12.03.55].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/bQEXHwR.jpg "[Mezashite] Aikatsu! - 11 [720p][0D3464EA].mkv_snapshot_16.44_[2014.11.17_12.03.55].jpg")
>>24664429
>aikatsu in fifth
>>24664443
It was THE most popular franchise in 2014.
>>24664442
the reason why they like it is irrelevant as long as they like it more than pokemon
where is my Anpanman vidya?
>>24664447
I know, that's why I'm surprised it dropped so much.
GOAT little girl show imo
>>24664455Akari happened
>>24664430
>>24664451
>Liking a more casualized version of pokemon
Fuck off yokai shill and stop samefagging so hard
>>24664429
>Hamtaro
oh man those were the days
>>24664442
but anon, they don't know nor care about japanese folklore much like how /vp/ don't.
>>24664461
>anime
>>24664461
no need to get buttflustered
how about that "yokai watch is dead" meme
>>24664461
>casualized
Sproink would like to have a word with you on that
>>24664429
>Tamagotchi is dead
fug
>>24664427
>>24664429
Why isn't Minions on there?
>>24664471
Looks like fucking shit.
>>24664544
Because it's not popular enough, obviously.
So why do we care about the opinion of japanese kids again?
>>24664552
Because this is a board about a franchise for japanese kids?
>>24664546He also wrecked my shit when I had to go fight him. Fucking squealing boil killed off a good number of my yo-kai. Poor Pupscicle...
>>24664552
because pokemon like many other series from that list are meant for them?
What the fuck is Anpanman and why is is so popular?
>>24664730
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anpanman
Google is hard.
>>24664427
Wtf is up with Anpaman.
>>24664757
So it's been running for 40 fucking years and it's still one of the most popular series with the Japanese children?
I wonder what the Yokai shitposters who say Pokemon is too old have to say about this.
>>24664949
NOTHING
THEY WILL SAY NOTHING
>>24664471
Literally who.
>>24664427
>look on for anpanpan on google
What the actual fuck is that, looks like a [s4s] meme.
I suppose the age range for these stats started from like very very early ages.
>>24664978

Star Wars has been around for 40 years and is still popular with American manchildren and children alike, what's the difference?
Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, etc have been around for 70 or so years and they're as popular as ever. Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny have been around since, what, the 30s?
>>24664978
The Anpanman wikipedia article says "In 2011, the titular Anpanman is the most popular fictional character among people age 0 to 12 years in Japan in 10 consecutive years", which is probably referencing these polls.
So yeah, kids age 0-12.
>>24664429
>Frozen in 2015
>Doesn't even place in 2014
Disney don't even have to make movies to get money...
>>24664998
don't they recycle their own movies into series like everytime?
>>24664429
>Smile Precure was actually loved
Japanese little girls have great taste.
>>24664427
why does Pokemon come and go throughout the years rather than dominate?
>>24664429
>2009
>Lilo and Stitch
Wut
>>24665310
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stitch!
>>24665322
What, a Stitch anime is really a thing... And they even changed Lilo.
Living and learning
>>24665468
>And they even changed Lilo
Which makes it a bit silly for the poll to call the franchise "LILO and Stitch", but yeah.
Shit was really popular in Japan at the time.
>>24664554
So then why are you here, degenerate
>wonder what the fuck anpan man is
>look it up
>literally just a one punch man ripoff with inverted colors
>>24664427
>Digimon only made it on the list once
>barely
kek
>>24664461
Yo-kai Watch shill is just mad that his franchise's popularity is pretty much contained to Japan only.
He's also campaigning to change /vp/ because no one on /v/ tolerates or likes YW.
>>24664575
Except people outside Japan like Pokémon, whereas no one in the West knows or cares about Anpanman.
>>24665310
Japan fucking loves Stitch.
>>24665590
because pokemon, duh
>>24668284
Can't say I blame them, I love that little fucker.
>>24664427
So is Kamen Rider ded?
