$500k a month might not be a lot were this an American-made series on American soil by a major American media distributor. However, for a foreign nation(s) whose currencies take a lot to equal 1 American dollar, that is quite a lot.

Nah, even for US 500k per month (so that means 6M per year) is actually a friggin lot for even major publisher, considering barely any Marvel comic book series cannot achieve that number by just prints.

With the link you gave, it shows that Marvel and DC account for over 63% of comic book sales in the USA. There were many comic book companies during the Golden Age of American comic books but so many eventually closed-up decades ago. Wonder what it was about Marvel and DC that kept them thriving at various levels even today.

Yeah, but we're also again talking about the profits from just one singular franchise global gross - and when even the biggest US printing powerhouses cannot achieve that numbers by just printing, that's already remarkable.

Studio A-CAT.

Season 1.

I'm kind of worried.

Never even heard of this before. It is a wonder, that there is so much content and platforms out there, that you'll never know what you are missing, unless it rises to vast popularity.

Just look at promo trailer with basically nothing but stills (and the anime will suppose to run in 4 months already!) and barely any movement with a lot of speed lines, and you shouldn't be worried at all... it already feels like disaster all the way.

Yeah, just from the trailer alone I'm not expecting this production to hold itself together.

Though pretty far from Makoto Furukawa's typical typecast.
