As one of the most powerful companies in the Japanese manga circle, the Hegemonic Society often encounters original works with bad endings, such as "Attack on Titan" and "Ranking of Kings", so the adapted animation often fails to end. Mappa is a famous "takeover man" in the Japanese manga circle, and the second season of works such as "Blue Fantasy" and "Attack on Titan", because the original production company is no longer dry, so mappa takes over. Mappa has taken over the disk of the Hegemonic Society, and the second season of "Ice Sea Battle" will be produced by Mappa, and the Hegemonic Society will not care. Let's analyze it in detail, as follows:
"Ice Sea Battle" is a god work, but the second season is handed over to mappa
"Ice Sea Battle" is one of the recognized works of Japanese comics in the past two years, its rating in a domestic station is 9.8 points, the score on Douban is 9.3 points, and it is evaluated as "the most similar to the japanese comic of high-quality American dramas", and the Hegemony Society has also won a good name with "Ice Sea Battle". However, unexpectedly, the Hegemonic Society actually gave up the excellent "Ice Sea Battle" and gave this big pie in the sky to Mappa, and the last animation given to Mappa by the Hegemonic Society was "Attack on Titan".
Mappa's brilliant performance in the final season of Attack on Titan, coupled with the high level of production of "Spell Return", makes it the strongest Japanese manga company on a par with the UFO Society in 2021. If mappa makes the second season of "Ice Sea Battle" into a god work, then it will continuously launch the three major god works of "Attack on Titan", "Chainsaw Man" and "Ice Sea War", and its position in the industry can even be comparable to or surpass the Hegemonic Society.
"Ice Sea Battle" is an opportunity for the Hegemonic Society to continue to be a god, why would it give up?
Reason one: The Hegemonic Society is in a financial crisis, and "Ice Sea Battle" cannot make money
It is a pity that the Hegemonic Society abandoned "Ice Sea Battle", but it was a helpless move, because it had no money. According to IG Port, the parent company of hegemonic societies, its subsidiaries Hegemonic Society and S.M Society are both in financial crisis. Hegemonic Society has long produced works that are not popular, resulting in word-of-mouth but sales losses, typical examples of which are "The Great Fraudster" and "vivy". And S .M Society specializes in unpopular animation, its hottest animation in the past two years is "Dragon Clan Buying a House", and the new work "Platinum Endgame" has been cold.
IG Port found that the two animation companies were losing money, and sooner or later the funds would collapse, so he began to meddle in the affairs of the Hegemonic Society, abandoning some unprofitable works, and "Ice Sea Battle" was one of the abandoned products. The sales of the disc of "Ice Sea Battle" were at the bottom of the year, and even the poor other-world animation "Come Again, Lord Demon King", the sales volume can exceed "Ice Sea Battle", and the current financial situation of the Hegemony Society, it is difficult to produce a pure money-burning "Ice Sea Battle" second season.
Reason two: The Hegemonic Society has "Spy Over the Family", which may not be able to free up the schedule
The Hegemonic Society now has a lot of resources in hand, and "Spy Over the Family", which has not yet been animated, has already sold in the top ten of the Daily comics, and it is made into an animation by the Hegemonic Society. The production capacity of the Hegemony Society has always been relatively low, in order to ensure the quality, it generally only does one work a quarter, so the Hegemony Society has "Spy Over home", and may not have a schedule to produce the second season of "Ice Sea Battle". Both masterpieces require high-level artists, and if the Hegemonic Society is double-opened, their animation quality will be pulled down, which fans do not want to see.
Hegemonic Society also has a film called "ONIPAN! The beautiful girl animation of "" is about to be launched, and it is a rare original beautiful girl animation of the Hegemonic Society. The former Hegemonic Society likes to be exposed to serious subjects, and this kind of cute fan sold to otaku has not really been tried and disdainful of production. Now that the Hegemonic Society has no money, in order to bow to life, it would rather not have "Ice Sea Battle" and produce "ONIPAN!" " make money.
summary:
The Hegemonic Society is now in a financial crisis, and its production capacity is limited, and out of the need to make money and launch new works, it has to give up the money-burning and unselled "Ice Sea Battle" and let the rich mappa take over this shenfan that the animation company loves and hates.
