Dōjin Circle Numbers Reveal Top Series at Comiket 92

Number crunchers rejoice, the stats for this month's Comic Market 92 reveals some interesting trends for what series are burning up the charts, at least when it comes to fan-made manga. Comiket utilizes "genre categories" that can move around based on popularity. Some categories are just single series unto themselves, while others are based around subject and publisher like Jump sports, shōnen manga, or romance games. Taking a look at the first graph, analysis author, Meiji University Yoshihiro Yonezawa Memorial Library staff member, and Niconico Gakkai β executive committee member "myrmecoleon" measured the percentage of circles in each the categories. These categories include both the subjects the manga are based on and multimedia categories, like music.

The largest percentage goes to Games (21%), followed by Other: For Men (13%), Anime (11%), Original Work 11%, Galge (bishōjo dating sims) 10%, Dōjin Soft (self-made games) 9%, Manga (not Jump) 7%, Critique/Mecha/Military 7%, Manga (Jump) 6%, Self-produced Music, Sports, & Dramas 3%, and Fan fiction 2%.

Looking at the catalog closer reveals which specific works are the most popular. Kantai Collection remains the top contender, as it as for the last two years. The ship girls are followed by the Touhou Project maintaining the spot after previously losing it to DMM's Tōken Ranbu. The IDOLM@STER game is in third place followed by Tōken Ranbu in fourth. Fifth place is the entire Nasuverse, or Fate franchise.

The rest of the the graph entries are: Love Live!, Yuri!!! on Ice!, Girls und Panzer, Granblue Fantasy, Haikyu!!, Mr. Osomatsu, Vocaloid, Tiger & Bunny, Kuroko's Basketball, Attack on Titan, Ensemble Stars, Yowamushi Pedal, World Trigger, Hetalia, Blood Blockade Battlefront, and My Hero Academia.

Blue bars represent popularity among men's circles, red as women's circles, and purple as both. The gray bar represents the amount at Comiket 91.

This year's event takes place from August 11-13 at Tokyo Big Sight, the second to last Comiket before the event moves to accommodate construction to prepare for the 2020 Olympic Games. Even though the event isn't moving yet, it's worth noting that the venue's West 1 and 2 Halls are closed for renovations causing a decrease in available space for vendors. Comiket draws huge numbers twice a year, but this year's will be the event's smallest in a decade. The event is losing approximately 3,400 circles due to the space closure.

Even taking this into consideration, myrmecoleon notes that the drop in Touhou Project and Mr. Osomatsu circles is more than expected. Fate-related circles also increased greatly, likely due to the popularity of the Fate/Grand Order mobile game.

myrmecoleon predicts, based on popularity on pixiv from June 1 to July 31, that Kemono Friends will see a huge increase at Comiket 93, from 90 circles to the 200-400 range. They also expect an increase in My Hero Academia thanks to the character Himiko Toga, as well as Mr. Osomatsu in time for its second season.

Had granblue always been this popular? Do you happen to have the last few years for reference?

>Kemonoshit not even big enough to warrant being on the graph
BLOWN THE H*CK OUT!

Was this the year where comiket needs to find a new venue for C93 and beyond?

I feel so homosexual just reading that list of series, both in the /y/ and /u/ sense.

>Kancolle still going so strong
Just....how? They have fuck all music compared to 2hu, and even the creator has long since moved on to a new series.
The only thing keeping it running is Kadokawa aka corporate jews who are still trying to milk it as much as possible.

It has it's own event actually.

>World trigger that high even with infinite hiatus

Nice

>2hu barely above idolshit

>and even the creator has long since moved on to a new series.

Which is?

Both are cancer.

>world trigger
That is still relevant ?

it's meme

Kancolle beating Touhou
Im@s beating Love Live
Touken Ranbu beating Fate

What the fuck is this timeline?

>own event

What's Kantai Collection's popularity all about?

People aren't really into aqours as much they are into µ's

I don't want Touhou to drop anymore than that, stop.

Kancolle doujins are shit though, You find one good one out of 500 shit ones.

Lots of girls to draw. It's not inaccurate to say a majority of the playerbase has dropped kancolle game itself due to unfun it can be.

A lot of Japanese players mostly play Kancolle arcade now a days

Holy shit.
I thought there is only 1 upcoming Japariket

Iku is literal sex on legs.

Idolmaster always beats Love Live in Comiket. It just has way more girls.

how are there still people not bored with kancolle

Well they aren't really shit, it's more like they're all the same, it just gets boring.

So... Boats, 2hu and fate.

Things are starting to get a bit stale.

I thought there had always been more Im@s circles than LL circles?

What is that some new boatslut?
That gets said about some new boatslut every year

>Boku Hero Academia 107
that's why the sales and the ratings are low, the girls don't care about the series.

That boatslut has the best scanned doujin out at the moment.

Anyone worried about Touhou's "declining" popularity without considering Reitaisai is retarded.

Which one would that be?

Japariket 4 was announced recently. Japariket 3 took place last month.

Too much boats so little abyssals.

nhentai.net/g/110237/

>nhentai

>Kancolle beating Touhou
>Touken Ranbu beating Fate
Old news, are you living under a rock?
At this rate all of them will be beaten by Fateshit in C93 or C94.
Everything has big drops, except Fate, GuP and Vocaloid.

>mfw everything listed there is shit

Is there actually any numbers about Reitaisai? I don't lurk /jp/ enough to know.

Dumb Miyazakiposter.

Fuck kancolle

Eh, this is actually kind of generic. Art's good but just eh.

>not Saratoga and Souryuu

>Touken Ranbu 1244
THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF FUJOS

Why are you faggots not using the panda?

If I wanted a story I'd just find one with fat old men fucking Shimakaze-kun in the ass.

Story-centric Kancolle doujins, what the fuck man

>normiehentai
geez, I wonder why
also the less people ask or even mention the panda, the better

I think he meant generic art style

>normie

Back to whatever shit board you came from

>>normie
Hello crossboarder.

>Fate doubling it's share
I hope there's some good stuff in there

>>Boku no Hero Academia has more than 100 doujin circles releasing its doujins
>>We still barely have any decent het doujins

Suffering

Enjoy more BL doujins thanks to FGO.

Because my browser porn profile with logins isn't on, nothing wrong with nhentai.

Any boat doujins have a more involved plot than "MUH TEITOKU"?

>Source: ASCii x Digital via Yara-on!

>Yuri!!! on Ice 552
I expected more, apparently nip fujos only care about swords.

Kancolle doujins just suffer from being boring as fuck. There's good stuff but the majority is just boring

Nah.
Maybe not translated.
Boatsluts are far off from reaching the amount of non-H or story-centric doujins like Touhou has.

>World Trigger 158

Damn.

And people still say that yurifags and fujos don't exist anymore and are dead.

Silly user, Jews fear the samurai.

Non-H Nasuverse used to be a riot long ago, what happened to those?

>and even the creator has long since moved on to a new series.
What the fuck are you talking about? Tanaka is still dev director for the game. Or are you the kind of retard who thinks the anime is the source material.

There is some good non H doujins, but I feel that most artists are latching on it for a quick bux.

Where is Re:Zero?

I didn't expect Olympia to kill otaku culture this early.

What's the new venue?

Is fanfiction popular in Japan at all? Compared to the west, How big is it?

>nips
>giving a shit about re:zero

It was popular in the west and average popularity in nip land

exhentai.org/g/941979/425043e09c/

I don't know the numbers, but its big enough to happen twice a year now.

Porn. Lots of porn.

Does anyone even remember any Nasuverse non-H that's not Hiroyuki or that [guaranteed replies] powerlevel one?

Remember when haters claimed boatgirls was a fad that would only remain popular for a comiket or two?

There is so many girls that there bound to be at least one girl that willl cater to your exact fetishes.

Touhou's doujinshi scene is more non-H doujinshi than H-doujinshi. I think the same can be said for Kemono Friends now too.

What about my touhou fetish?

Are you telling me there's a lack of Touhou or something? 2 Reitasai's and fucking comiket, it still churns out the most fanworks

You have Reitaisai for that. You're not one of those retards who thinks they can only like one or the other right?

There were a ton of shitty Rem doujins the Comicet after that season

That powerlevel one is a real joy to read even though it's nonsensical setting consistency-wise

Just because there are more events doesn't mean there are more circles. I don't think many circles would just skip Comiket.

these numbers are just a lie
it's better to believe thread popularity on Sup Forums to have an idea of what circles are watching also to make stuff for
so the best series to watch are dbs, love live, naruto, hxh, shingeki, jojos, etc
if you're watching otherwise, you and those in japan just have shit taste

This is some advanced shitposting

Some 100 doujins is literally nothing when you're going against 20k+ titans.

i dont think anyone in the west has ever successfully sold fanfiction for money
(unless fifty shades of gray counts, since it was originally a twilight fanfic)
so it's automatically doing better in Japan

Was that 90 or 89?
Because I remember it being the biggest series besides Touho and KanColle

It's like 2hu:
- many characters
- most of these characters have only a basic character design and personality
- no plot, only what the game dictates

Doujin artists can fill the blanks with their own creativity. It's easier than starting an original work, because you have a template and an active community who could be interested in your work. The artists will also get the sense of contributing back to the community and interacting with it in a symbiotic way.

>artist do some nice doujins of other series.
>Immediately move to boat because x or y stop airing or for some other reason.


I have no problem with boats but this shit piss me off.

Not going to bother counting, but this is the circle list for the most recent Reitaisai.

s.reitaisai.com/rts14/block/

Touhou is doing damn fine.

But boats decreased this comicet

>artist makes really good doujins
>is stuck making boatshit for the last 3 Comikets

If you're wondering what Kadokawa has been doing with the money get from KanColle, they built a 1:1 model of a beloved seaplane for KanColle players and had a collaboration with a big theme park named FujiQ to debut it.

And Twilight was BtVS fanfiction. Also, everything written by Cassie/Cassandra Claire is her repackaged Harry Potter fanfiction.

Selling fanfiction is grand old tradition in the west. It's just that most authors go for the thinly veiled file the serial numbers off method.

Behold, the might Zuiun in all its glory. May it have mercy on those who speak ill of it. ZUIUN = GOD.

If by fanfic you mean using other people's characters to write an adaptation:
Wide Sargasso Sea is a fanfic of Jane Eyre. Dean Koontz Frankenstein series is fanfic of Frankenstein.
And there are so many more.
