They won't have any if they keep promoting Animation Runner Kuromi 2 as if anyone cared.

Seriously, if ARK 2 is the biggest thing that CPM has to offer this year, then maybe they should just shut down....

I care too.
And Negadon was good.

Everything is not just about the big hits. There is plenty of anime out there that people enjoy that will never have a big audience. Just because something isn't a hit dosen't mean it isn't good either.

I don't want to loose one company, people don't realize how small this industry really is.

CPM is filing for BANCRUPTCY. What they need now is not mildly amusing OVAs that appeal to small section of what is already a small market. Bigs hits = funds to put out less lucrative titles.

Kuromi was pretty funny, but I don't see how this makes news.

Not necessarily. Big Hits = Big bucks to license, and it's a crapshoot of if you'll make that money back, even with that big hit. Even if it sells well, it might not do what you need to break even.

I liked ARK 2 and it did win an award.

I'd go to see it if I was in the New York area. I like sushi!

Big hits there also don't necessarily translate to big hits here. Like Hunter Sopko said it's all a crap shoot. If a cheaper title can do well then it might lead to more profits.

So promote it for all its worth! Very Happy
