Kinda cool, since japan doesn't even consider LATAM a market, they could make a lot more profit.

I'm tired of having to point this out, but the top-line number reported here does not correspond with what we think of as the "anime industry."

animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=5225133#5225133

The number that matters is what the AJA terms revenues in the "narrow sense." Every year ANN publishes the "broad sense" figures, I guess because they are so large. That's the number the AJA wants to tout as well for obvious reasons. So, ANN, have we seen the figures in the "narrow sense" yet?

In short, the only two sectors on Japanese anime that are doing badly are 'anime on TV' and 'anime on home video'(Bluray and DVD).

Says who? Please don’t tell me you’re one of those anime elitists who only revere shows from over a decade ago. As if the industry hasn’t always had its fair share of bad series.

Isn’t home video as a whole going down in Japan? Side effect of streaming.
