Yep. Manga/anime already has something for everyone. They understand their audiences way better. For some reason western entertainment thinks lgbt is 90% of the country
Yeah. West seems to forget about target audience and chase after general audience..
They dont realize niche that is done great can attract outside interest by itself... not that i like the idea of masses of outsiders coming into my hobbies or niche.
It's beyond that. Hasbro infamously was well-known for hating the fact their niche product MLP hit a general audience back in the brony era of the interwebs. The west seems to over-compartmentalize their products, and assume that if a niche product is good enough to expand beyond their niche, it must therefore be bad, and only a product DESIGNED for general audiences should be accessible to general audiences.
Agreed. I certainly miss the days when a lot of hobbies were niche and nerdiness wasn’t trendy. Like with Star Wars I remember in the 90s thinking the future would be books and comics and had a blast on forums discussing the books.
