In Topic: The NEW NaruSaku Debate Thread

All things considered, I'm glad that such move resulted in:

- Less than 1 million manga sales in 2019 (to be precise, it sold 600.845 copies for all volumes in the whole year of 2019). As a comparison, the franchise sold ~250million accumulative total between 2000-2015

- Kishimoto's new manga got axed within 5 volumes. He was planning for at least 10.

- No movies since 2015 while every other franchise enjoys growth as anime market is expanding twice the size compared to a decade ago (https://www.animenew...ion-yen/.166579)

- The latest major game they produce (Shinobi Striker) sold 10k in the first week. Storm 3 sold 9 times more in the same timespan.

And many more facts that indicated the move to pivot the story at last minute has killed the franchise financially.

One can't justify an F mark to be seen as good. It is what it is. The fact that such move backfired will ensure that other series should not follow suit.

 

I'm curious do you think somewhere down the line Naruto might get a reboot? I personality think its better if this franchise is completely buried and forgotten. It should never get a reboot especially if a mediocre author like Kishimoto is involved.

Is this proof that the naruto brand is no longer valuable to the Japanese audience?

The theme park looks very deserted and empty.

Im i only one thats against the whole political correct and woke culture? It really annoys me that the fans are requesting rick riordan to make Percy a non white/bisexual character. Even tho the books and the official art, comics and the musical adaptation made Percy white and straight. It annoys me even more that riordan said that he intended Percy race to be open to interpretation and yet in the official art and other adaptations percy is constantly made out to be a white guy with a Mediterranean skin color.

I certainly am!

 

 

Especially since Rick Riordan is behind it 100% and by his words he wants it to be an accurate representation to the  books. 

 

Each Season  would equal  per book. 

 

 

Season 1: Lightning Thief

 

Season 2: Sea of Monsters 

 

Season 3: Titan's Curse 

 

Season 4: Battle of Th Labyrinth 

 

Season 5: Last Olympian 

 

 

 

 

Heroes of Olympus I think will be it's own series.  

 

 

Really curious as to who they are going to cast. 

 

Riordan also confirmed that the main cast will be 12 years old Unlike the movie were all the cast 20 years and up. I hope disney dosen't get too controlling and do something shady behind riordans back. I don't trust disney that much lately and i heard they messed up another book adaptation call artemis fowl.
