    If they want to do this, they should focus on simultaneous dub releases, and make sure they’re high quality. Dubs being delayed means internet discussions become fractured, it kills viral posts.

      Infinite profit growth isn’t possible, and is definitely is not sustainable.

      Not while maintaining quality, which is what an art form like anime is really selling.

      If bad anime floods the market, it’ll be like the black and white comic book implosion of the 90s: Too much bad product sinking demand for the entire sector.

    Anime/manga seems pretty saturated already.

    Inflation over the next 6-7 years is an unknown, and might account for a lot of the target.

    Edit: Unless they’re thinking that anime should be enshittified in the same manner as Hollywood, with jacked up pay per view fees, product placements, and sequels and product tie ins dominating the release calendar.

    Although arguably anime is headed in those directions already.

    That would be a mistake to take away the spirit of experimentation and risk taking.
