@udongle @supersid333 @HoroTheWhiteWolf @TornadoOfTerror @marlin @professionalbigot69 @weaf that doesnt sound right, i know for a fact it costs millions of yen per episode even for shitty low budget shows. BDs are just not that expensive

  Sounds like the idea of a loss leader. The anime makes more people buy the manga, which is where they actually make the money. In a way, a very expensive ad.
  
  Also would explain why there are a lot of one season animes with a lot of manga story afterwards. "If you want to know how the story continues, buy the manga!"

  @teknomunk @merchantHelios @supersid333 @udongle @HoroTheWhiteWolf @TornadoOfTerror @marlin @professionalbigot69 Your average anime is also insanely dirt cheap. I don't emember exactly but I think a okayish 12 episode series can be made on a budget of $600k USD.

  @TornadoOfTerror @teknomunk @merchantHelios @supersid333 @udongle @HoroTheWhiteWolf @marlin @professionalbigot69 No that's the 2007 American movie you're looking at, the 2009 Redline Madhouse production made only a quarter of a million against a 3 million dollar budget

  @TornadoOfTerror @teknomunk @merchantHelios @supersid333 @udongle @HoroTheWhiteWolf Production studios never actually have millions of dollars when they make projects unless you're a major Hollywood studio with franchises and stuff. They usually get loans to cover most of the cost of production and then pay off the loan when it releases and if you're lucky you'll be able to keep a small piece of the profits. If you take out a $2.5 million dollar loan to make your movie and you only make $250k back at the box office you are seriously fucked
