The author of Kimetsu no Yaiba earns 2 billion yen for four years
The author of One Piece earns 3.1 billion yen a year The author of Dragon Ball earns 1.5 billion yen a year The author of Yu-Gi-Oh! Earns 1.2 billion yen to 1.3 billion yen a year Naruto's author earns 1 billion yen a year The author of Attack on Titan earns 800 million yen a year
Kishi got the worst contract I see. Naruto should net him more than a mere 10m annually.
Bentley Garcia
shueusha obviously owns Naruto more than Kishi himself
Leo Gray
Will Oda die before he can spend his big yens?
Jace Jackson
Imagine having a studio and having net profits of less than one fucking million dollars. Anime business is bad business
Owen Gomez
How much of it came to the authors or rather did the authors get any of that money?
Joseph Gomez
That's their cut from everything related to their work, including anime and merchandise.
Gabriel Adams
that's the money they won, obviously the franchisees themselves win way more
Christian Torres
Are taxes accounted for?
Nolan Ward
Imagine thinking Oda would do anything but draw shonen on the walls with a flint if he were on a desert island
Austin Richardson
Well? Where's the source? Cause it certainly isn't your image. That simply addressed sales, total volumes sold and sales increase.
Adam Evans
Impressive. Taking into account that Japan is literally a stagnant economy since 2 decades ago, we literally can say that anime is saving Japan.
Luis Howard
>this post Hurts to read. Do you even realize for how small those numbers are compared to, uhm, any Top 50 Japanese company?
Jacob Hall
Both Oda's house and studio are essentially amusement parks the man spends his money well. I'm not sure what the point of these are in comparison. Is it just that the anime studios don't make money like the creators? I know it's hard for Westernfags (Not just Americans, but all of the west) to understand but in Japan anime only exists to promote manga and merchandise. It's a worthless little commercial. The big bucks are in manga, and that's why these creators earn more then studios. In the US anime is bigger, but in Japan it really doesn't matter as much as the manga industry does. The manga industry is where the money is. Anime is kind of a dead end.
Logan Williams
I assume the number was much higher when the series was running.
Tyler Parker
Even more impressive. If a relatively small industry keeps several decades of growth and steady profits while the overall scenario is literally deflation, then something is going on well.
Joseph Cox
Anime makes money too, the production committee just slurps everything up but studios don't complain because of Japan's "pride in suffering/suffer with pride" culture
Levi Rodriguez
>The author of Yu-Gi-Oh! Earns 1.2 billion yen to 1.3 billion yen a year Does that include the royalties from the card game?
Brody Cox
How much author of MHA earn?
Easton Green
It's weird to me how few people on Zig Forums consider Yugioh a big property.
Julian Morgan
>oh my studios No risk, no reward. Animators are being paid the way they are cause they lack the skills to even be considered artists, and, in all honesty, at least 90% of those working on anime have no business working in the industry. They just suck donkey dick at thier jobs.
Jeremiah Davis
Is this why death note guys made that manga where they spend the entirety of it soapboxing about the evil 1%?
Jack Edwards
Are you somehow implying that true artist make some money?
Tyler Perry
It doesn't matter how much A1 or Cloverworks earns anyway because they're Aniplex's studios. They could be in the red for years and it doesn't matter, because Aniplex gets its money from gacha games like FGO and Magireco.
Juan Walker
>Impressive Have you considered that it could be due to negative interest rates imposed by the bank of Japan? Profits might not really be growing if you consider how that is impacting the value of the yen.
Jonathan Roberts
Being a 'true artist' or not doesn't change your pay genius.
Owen Phillips
>They just suck donkey dick at thier jobs. You get what you pay for. Kyoani pays and trains their staff properly and their shows consistently look great. Too bad all their talent is wasted on SoL romcoms/melodramas.
Justin Collins
Because most people don't know that it started as a manga, most believe that the card game came first
Alexander Gonzalez
No shit it's a big property, but isn't most of its profits from the card game?
Joseph Ward
Can you stop same fagging? Nobody used the term "true artist". If you don't suck at your job, you make a reasonable wage. Correct. 90% of those working in anime are bieng paid inspite of their contributions. It's time for the industry to be gutted and have all those incompetent, untalented and quite frankly misguided sods stop pursuing a career they suck at and become cashiers instead.
Carson Garcia
Like 10 bucks every week
Kevin Ortiz
How the fuck does YGO author only earn 1.3b
Nathan Hall
That might be the case for some industries but I hardly think it's the case for the anime/manga one. Not when the meme but still valuable international sector growths sometimes double-digits each year.
Daniel Peterson
They still deserve to get paid for their work. Animators won't be shit in the first place if the rich suits didn't force them to make a quality project on a shoestring budget and shit scheduling
Michael Powell
Do you even understand how the market works user? Do you actually think that the profits of a series is on direct proportion of his artistic quality??
Asher Flores
user, the average salary of an animator is only about 300 yen more per hour than a cashier, not exactly a major expenditure. And do you really think someone goes into a career where they'll make just above minimum wage for the money?
William Hernandez
Everyone showing their NEET today, knowing nothing of business. Everyone is forgeting anime studios are pretty much contractors, they are paid by bigger companies to make animated features. Before production of an anime is begins, a production committee is formed where several companies, the anime studio, the publisher, toy company, etc. colme together and hash out what they will do and decide their budget and how money is going to be split, to say the least. Anime studios dont have a whole of say and money control in the matter for how an anime is made. Its probably a different story for when they make an original anime.
