What's with all the anime collabs

Like, okay, OPM? First collab ever, tons of hype because of that, cool. Cowboy Bebop? I mean, sure I guess. Feels a little soon to have anime again for third collab, but sure. MHA? Actually what the heck is going on? Should I be expecting a DBZ collab 6 months from now? Don’t get me wrong, it’s cool but I think I would have taken a LazyTown collab over the third anime collab in less than 2 years

Yes. Followed shortly by One Piece collaboration. Anime sells, and suits think Overwatch doesn’t make enough money.

cowboy bebop one felt random as hell

skins were so disappointing in 3d as well. glad they stepped it up in the 3d modelling department this time but this one also came out of nowhere

Yeah, I don’t want to be the anime game. I think it might just be dev preference at this point, because anime is super niche and can’t possibly sell to a wide audience. The designs for anime characters are normally silly and wouldn’t appeal to anyone who isn’t already a fan of that anime.

Like, I see how someone might have bought the Bumblebee skin for Bastion with knowing about Transformers, but how many non-anime fans bought McCree’s Cowboy Bebop skin? Or any of the anime skins so far for that matter.

Fortnite: Allow me to introduce myself.
Rick and Morty: You know we’re coming.

Because Anime sells very good overall

Why do you think Kiriko keeps getting skins? Weebs love to spend money.
