Well, when you have family connections to Toei and a drive to push anime further into the mainstream by sacrifice and succeeding, of course you can expect big gains. Rolling Eyes

Is not "Toei', but" Toei Animation", dont be cutting things, because Toei animation isnt the only named "Toei" company, you also have "Toei corporation" that is a different company(in fact is the parent company), but its work and financials are totally separated from Toei Animation.

Also, it isnt "losses" but "decreases". One person reads this articule and thinks that in some sections of Toei Company they are losing money and being rescued by othes sections. That is the further from the truth. Those sectioms were highly profitable, meaning made tons of money, but compared to the same period last year they did less.

Just like in the past 10 years ? 20 years? 30 years? And what about 70 years?

Toei animation is the longest still running anime studio, the biggest and most successful. It been running for 70 yeara and it had similar stategies for that time(go look at gegege no kitaro).
Is amazing that you think that this is what going to cripple the industry.

It'd be nice if they would use some of that money to make Sailor Moon Crystal look better and actually work on those Dream arc movies.
