What’s an anime that MAINLY performed well in Japan compared to other countries?
I can name anime that dominated globally.
I can name anime which really only hit the global market, with Japan being kinda meh about it.
But i can't think up of anime that majorly hit in Japan, but didn't see much happen outside Japan.
Because from what i've usually seen, if it hits in Japan, it'll likely hit everywhere because ultimately it's a good show. That being said – maybe the show was only good because it presented an idea/theme that uniquely resonated with Japanese audiences.
Any thoughts?
