Detective Conan

Doraemon and Naruto? Also One Piece.

Sailor Moon

Gundam

Hokuto no Ken, you know, the father of all battle shounen.

Including games, and merchandise?

This.

Sailor Moon is probably up near the top if we are talking about merch and other things.

I've never seen any total earning numbers for entire franchises, but Gundam has to be up there.

If by franchine gundam is not on the top given how expensive their models are I would be shocked. Not to mention how many they just pump out of that series

Naruto soon it consistently beats DBS in popularity and Boruto series is on the way.

no one likes gundam. boring mech shit doesnt sell outside of figures.

except it doesnt. super is huge. no one even talks about naruto since it ended.

You're grossly underestimating just how much fucking money Gunpla makes.
There are literally THREE anime series about Gunpla building and people ate that shit up. It's massive.

>boring mech shit doesn't sell outside of the whole reason Anime exists in the first place.

On here because Narutards no longer feel the need to prove it was good. The filler which is still coming beats DBS episodes in viewers.

Idol anime

except it doesnt.

No don't think so

Astro boy, Evangelion, Sailor Moon, etc.

nobody has bought anything astroboy related in decades. evangelion has never sold much shit

Dragon Ball would have died long ago without video games and BoG.

Nah mate. True, gundam is not popular as the others named in this thread in the west, actually, its not popular at all, lets face it. But holy shit nips are literally batshit insane about gunpla, its even worse than the whole waifu/cute little girl shit over there, it just prints money endlessy.

>if only I wasn't mentally handicapped I could stop sucking all these dicks

gundam is shit. get over it. fucking boring

Why did The LAst get over double the total earnings of Battle of the Gods then?

I bet you are taking numbers out of japan rankings alone. This thread is about global series that made money everywhere. DB will forever be king in southamerika for example, Super there beats naruto/one piece and the rest by fucking far.

No I mean globally RoF and BotG did less than The Last put together.

DB is huge in America but Eastern Europeans go apeshit for Naruto.

It's true pretty much any site I can find that plays anime has Naruto getting more views than DBS.

Fuck you user so the final conclusion of the Naruto series did more than Botg and Rof. DB is worth 5 billion and Naruto only 20 million. You must have pretty fucking high hopes for Boruto.

Yu-Gi-Oh! in a sense. At least the card game if not the show, but you can't really have one without the other.

does dbz even have an amusement park?

Honestly, they have plenty of room to fix things up with Boruto, going back to the pre-shippuden days is the best move right now. If they keep milking the old characters, that shit will die quickly.
No but if you want to talk about some attraction that lures people that would be the spanish DBZ VAs, people travel and pay absurd amounts just to hear them talk random shit for an hour or so in comiket-wannabe gatherings. People petitioned and begged then to work in BotG and RoF because at first they refused, they were retired after all, but the petition just became too fucking big and with a shitload of money in between so they accepted and became fucking rich again.

Well it sells A LOT OF FUCKING FIGURES
I should know

They've been releasing filler prologue arcs ever since the main story ended and they are getting more views than new DBS episodes.

Clearly One Piece and Pokemon did.

Dragonball is massive in latin america but naruto isn't

clearly you can't understand the Japanese equivalent of star trek with giant robots

The last arc was Jiraiya and young Kakashi everyones two favorite characters. Those are going to be inconsistent based on who is in them.

Anpanman. All these fucking toys are not cheap.

Naruto is also huge in the US and honestly I wouldn't doubt they are big in Latin america too.

The only one that is titanic in Japan and not many other places is One Piece. Which is a shame because One Piece has the most to offer.

I know one piece has stand alone shops in Taiwan etc. Would have to be up there with DBZ.

Idk but I know in Japan Oda is more or less considered a national treasure. Toriyama doesn't get that kind of respect.

>evangelion has never sold much shit

Nigger, gunpla is HUGE with gunota and even regular plamo modelers in Japan. Gundam doesn't even need to give a shit about selling BDs when they've got Bandai-Hobby making so much god damn money. So much money that they're running out of mecha to make into kits from Gundam. At least, the ones that aren't obscure MS variant #56 that only a dozen people know about.

Evangelion is for pseudo intellectual asshats. It's like the fear and loathing of anime for dickheads to act like they gained some insight by watching some horny fucked up orphans fight aliens. Yeah I know user you jack off too much so you can relate to the protag.;

Yugioh. People spend hundreds to thousands of dollars on card packs, box sets, play sets, etc.

>Toriyama doesn't get that kind of respect.

Toriyama's manga ended long time ago.

Maybe 25 years ago he was like Oda.

Wasn't it Eva who's pretty much the king of making money?

Isn't there actually a law that says Oda has to take a week off every month in Japan?

THEY FUCKING MAKE GIANT MECHA FIGURINES YOU DINGUS DBZFAG

HOLY SHIT HOW FUCKING DENSE YOU ARE?

Like Mazinkaiser?

Well yes, mecha is fucking big in japan. Especially the old stuff

>no one likes gundam
I'll admit that I don't give a shit about mech shows, but im not so delusional as to believe that nobody likes the most popular mech series in anime.

>The filler which is still coming beats DBS episodes in viewers.

This is such shit bait.

look it up you will also see that The Last did 19 million while each DB movie did about 8 or 9.

No one is arguing that. They have brand power and merchandise the fuck out. Ya popular as fuck and makes bank. Don't be stupid.

I mean I don't know if these are stone cold fact numbers buuuut it appears Battle of the gods did twice as well as The Last.

Are you a normalfag by any chance?

One Piece does pretty well in most of Asia. It's starting to kick up in South America too. It also does very well in France. I think it's been beating Naruto for some time now.

Honestly, the only place it has consistently been ranked middle of the pack has been in North America. That's mostly due to Naruto being picked up before One Piece and 4Kids putting their cancer into it.

The Last did 19 million while Battle of the Gods did 51 million. Refer here

He's talking about the ratings of DBS vs Naruto Shitpudding. Fuck off.

Nardofags BTFO.

The Naruto anime has to have broken a record for most filler episodes ever. I still can't believe it's on going.

Damn there is a Narutofag in serious denial in this thread.

Dragonball is king, forever, get over it. Your shit will never outpace One Piece, which will never outpace DB as long as content still gets released. Sorry to burst your bubble, now start expanding your repertoire past shounenshit you stinking newfag.

Evangelion sold so much merchandise it literally changed the way the industry works. You're fucking retarded and need to go back to wherever you came from.

>hahaha fucking fans of [series I don't like], it's way less profitable than [series I like], that makes [series I like] better than [series I don't like]
> [other series I don't like] is more popular and sells more than [series I don't like]? S-sales are worthless, saying something is good because it's popular is for retards.

Who said Dragonball was any good? This thread is strictly about popularity.

There is a chance i was only looking at the US numbers

All is forgiven.

Kek, stay mad, cuck.

Honestly I wasn't even really talking about the profits I just wanted to rip on Evangelions sanctimonious fanbase
