It’s confirmed. No one watches anime anymore.
hmm... hmm... hmm... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....
( あなたを殺しに来るクソアニメオタク。) use DeepL to translate.
Translation of the above sentence: Fucking anime geeks coming to kill you.
I can get away with at least this much I hope. I even added the translation into my post itself... mods, please do check for transparent things before deleting this if it goes against the 'English only' rule.
Also, it isn't really dead. There are tons of great hits sent out this year, many of which are widely watched!
For example, the Duke of Death and His Maid! It was quite the enjoyable SoL/Drama/Romance~ Not only that, it is even believed there will be a second season!
The art style was a bit... weirder than normal, but the anime was addicting, you could say. I binged the entire series yesterday. All twelve episodes.
Then, we have Moonlit-fantasy~ (TSUKI GA MICHIBIKU). I watched a few of the episodes that came out, and they were perfectly created! I've already read past where a fourth season would start, if we get a fourth season, so I was a bit bored but it would be quite alluring to any person who likes watching animation!
This season, we also have the anime adaptation of Mushoku Tensei! I waited for years for it to happen! And I finally got it! Again, this is kind of like the situation in TsukiMichi before. As in, I kind of already finished the entire series. But the anime was still good.
Don't forget the series that's still on Funimation's trending after more than a year: Kakushigoto! It was amazing to watch, and wholesome.
And I will also say that there are millions of views generated by anime every single day. Besides, the worth of anime yearly is expected to reach USD 25.46 billion by the end of this year (stats gathered from
here). By no means is anime dead. It is an ever-going industry.
