Fujoshi are the future of anime...

Sup Forums sure is shitty right about now

>now

I hate how fujoshi = girl that likes BL, as if that's what the word meas. There are plenty of fujoshi that detest such things.

Sup Forums is always shitty this time of day / night. At least, it has been for the last four or five years.

That is what the word means. If you don't like male/male romance you're not a fujoshit.

Wrong, it's homo fangirls in general, it just that the BL fans is overwhelming the yuri fans.

What makes you think fujoshi are any less neet than otakus?

Yeah sure. Go find me those reputable jap sources that say it includes girls who like yuri.

Fujo = yaoi fangirl. They are made of fail.

I want proof they even exist

Boys kissing is a gateway to girls kissing

Women spend WAY more money on useless shit than men. And the anime market is realizing this.

Maybe in western circles. Japanese girls that like boyxboy rarely also like girlxgirl, which is largely something made for hetrosexual men.

It will all change with a single yuri anime aimed at them.

Fujos gave me a new season of Hoozuki no Reitetsu, they aren't that bad.

Yep. Women are far more likely to buy pieces of plastic with a character's face on it than men.

The profit margin on selling over priced keychains or other nicknacks is insane.

Male Otaku will buy the DVDs and MAYBE buy a figure. The Fujoshi will buy all the merchandise

Enjoy your harem and moe-girls anime while it lasts.

The term fujoshi refers to girls that like yaoi though. Female otaku that are into otome or yuri don't call themselves fujoshi as far as I know.

Loveless, a fujoshi anime, had a yuri side couple.

That didn't change a single thing.

At best Japanese fujoshi will throw in yuri because it's an easy to have female characters that will never threaten the ship. The alternative is to have female characters that are super supportive of the shipping (like they did in Free!).

>Princess Principal is the top selling anime this season
>Dive! is the least selling anime this season
The fujo revolution isn't happening.

take me down to the black lizard planet
where the grass is pink and the girls are kissing

>I hate how fujoshi = girl that likes BL

I hate how basic weebs don't know that "fujoshi" literally means "girl who likes BL". Westerners using it as a catchall term to describe any female anime fan are retarded, and guess what? You're one of them.

Is PriPri that good? I watched like 3 episodes and they were boring as shit. Did it suddenly get better?

Also I'm seeing that it'll only sell just as much as swordboys if it's lucky.

>side couple

That's the key word. Also, the fact that Loveless sucked is a factor. An explicit female-targeted yuri anime that's actually good would do gangbusters.

I just mean that the term was co-opted. It original just meant female otaku that were into homosexual relationships, both male/male or female/female, or other "perverse" fetishes.

>An explicit female-targeted yuri anime that's actually good would do gangbusters.

Your plan is to create an anime targeted at 3-5% of the population? That's the % of the population who are lesbians.

That's economic suicide. There's a reason that yaoi and yuri target primary heterosexual people.

I still don't see you posting any sources for that claim. Meanwhile every definition of the word I've read says that it's always been about girls who like fags.

>Osomatsu san will be the top selling anime this year

>It original just meant female otaku that were into homosexual relationships, both male/male or female/female

Around 2000, the word “fujoshi”emerged as a term
of mocking self-reference among avid fans of male–male romance on the An Introduction to “Boys Love” in Japan's notorious BBS 2-channel.

The term itself is a homophone of a word meaning
“girls and women,” but, in this case, BL fans have replaced a
kanji character to create the neologism “rotten girls.”

You're full of shit.

Fuck that, I don't want shitty guys getting paired with my cute bishounen and adorable shota. Give us more cakes and long haired tomboys as love interests.

Except Loveless was stupidly popular and well received, so it sucking isn't a factor.
The yuri couple being irrelevant is a better argument. But I still don't think you're right, BL is too different from yuri and it takes more than a bit of exposure to the genre to switch from fujo to yuributa. A lot of girls who read BL already like it a little but not to the point where they become avid yuri readers. It just isn't the same.

We are living in the beginning of the cake era. And it's thanks to fujos.

The most popular series with a MASSIVE yuri bent was Utena.
And it was just all kinds of sex fucking everywhere.

Serious Yuri for lesbians doesn't sell user.
Serious porny yuri aimed at het males doesn't sell much better either.

Fujos(and a ridiculous percentage of lesbians are hardcore fujos) like furiously shlicking to pretty gay niggas, the entire rainbow of masculinity basically gangbanging/romancing one self insert, NTR, and generic forbidden badboy raping an innocent sexually frustrated woman till she loves it.

Yuri don't sell.


There is however, MASSIVE potential in a major all romances type thing. Just people being sexual and open and being with each other.
Lots of drama, lots of "Oh my god he's fucking her who'd have ever guessed" type stuff.

Noodles have been replacing cakes (which wasn't really a thing to begin with in Japan, since it's American slang if I recall correctly) in real life, so maybe we'll see that as a successor in the near future.

>the most popular series with a massive yuri bent was Utena
No, that was Marimite. Just look at it's massive influence on the genre.

But cakes are sweet. I want to eat them and give them a cream filling.
Old noodles sound awful.
I can't put my dick in old noodles.
That just sounds unpleasent.

...wasn't that the one where that girl got raped with a flute?

That was Kannazuki no Miko.
