In recent years, domestic animation has continued to exert efforts, and a large number of excellent domestic animation works have emerged, providing valuable spiritual food for domestic teenagers and even adult audiences, and the types of works are becoming more and more abundant, so that everyone has a spiritual "feast", and it is slowly reversing the view that some people think that "cartoons are watched by children".
I personally have a lot of favorite works, and these works can finally meet with everyone, thanks to the efforts of the company behind the scenes. Today, I want to talk to you about it, the top ten animation companies in my personal heart, do not include "Bear Haunting", "Pleasant Goat" and other sub-works of the company and animation film companies, and the ranking is very subjective, mainly from the perspective of representative works, influence and popularity, richness of works, sustainability, word of mouth, valuation and development potential, etc. To explore, influence and popularity depend on its works, the richness of works mainly considers the audience of the work and whether it is original or adapted, and the sustainability considers its sustainable output ability. Word-of-mouth mainly depends on recent anecdotal reviews, while valuation and development potential depend on their future outlook.
The division of these five dimensions is very subjective, only representing my personal views, no one else can represent, because there are only 10, so it is inevitable that there will be omissions, not that they are not good but that I myself is shallow, I hope to take this opportunity to throw bricks and jade, and everyone will exchange and discuss together.
1st Place: Mystery
Representative works: "Qin Shi Mingyue" series, "Douluo Continent", "Wu Gengji"
Influence: 5 stars, Richness of works: 5 stars, Sustainability: 5 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 3 stars, a total of 21 stars
Advantages: Xuanjijia started with "Qin Shi Mingyue", and has developed into a domestic veteran company that is properly calculated, and the works are basically 3D, and it is certainly needless to say that the influence alone has broken 40 billion in the penguin home. The variety of his works is very rich, whether it is a novel adaptation, a comic adaptation, or a home-made original, the influence and richness of the works are among the top in China, and the newly disclosed valuation is about 910 million. I heard that their family is still tinkering with new animation engines and accumulating a lot of patented technology, and I am very optimistic about the development of their family.
Disadvantages: Personally feel that the main problem facing Xuanji at present is still the production capacity, "Douluo Continent" because of the current special situation of serious shrinkage, the length of a single episode is reduced, in addition, there have always been their family works "water injection", love too much and other complaints, the rhythm of this piece also needs to be strengthened.
Second place: See the beauty
Representative works: "One Thought Eternal", "Magic Ancestor", "Full-time Master"
Influence: 5 stars, Richness of works: 4 stars, Sustainability: 3 stars, Word of mouth: 4 stars, Potential: 3 stars, a total of 19 stars
Advantages: See the United States as a veteran animation company, its works are many and wide, men to women are involved, the creation of works to 2D-based, comic novels have changed, these years their own original works output less, mainly and penguin home cooperation to produce works, plot arrangements, play rhythm, etc. are remarkable, while opening branches in many parts of the country, sustainability is worthy of attention.
Disadvantages: To talk about the biggest shortcomings of the beauty, "beauty face" may be a topic that cannot be bypassed, the role of the work may cause aesthetic fatigue, in addition, the official current works are basically novel adaptation types, the richness of this piece is slightly lacking, before the "full-time master" did a pretty good result of the follow-up did not continue to do, people are very sorry, do not know what changes are behind it, indeed people are worried about its subsequent development.
Third place: Art painting opens the sky
Representative works: "Spirit Cage", "Phantom Mirror Nordling", "Three-Body"
Influence: 4 stars, Richness of works: 2 stars, Sustainability: 4 stars, Word of mouth: 4 stars, Potential: 5 stars, a total of 19 stars
Advantages: Art painting kaitian works are mainly 3D, with "Spirit Cage" in the domestic animation fans out of the word of mouth, a single episode of the work to give real enough, the sustainability is not covered, while the depth and breadth of the work discussion degree, during the broadcast in the whole network have detonated word of mouth, several hot searches, the work score from the beginning to the end has been stable, the quality of the bar. Personally, they are most optimistic about the future development potential, their family has its own IP accumulation, but also received the adaptation of the "Three-Body" animation, walking on multiple legs; its own original IP can bring long tail effect, coupled with their commercial operation ability is relatively strong, advertising, licensing, games, derivatives, live-action film and television, virtual idols and other aspects have been laid out; multi-channel income sources can support them to create new IP; thus forming a virtuous circle. Therefore, the market is also more optimistic about its development, the latest valuation at the beginning of this year is close to 2.5 billion, which is the highest valuation animation company in China as far as I know.
Disadvantages: The biggest disadvantage of art painting may be that there are fewer works of their own, there is still a gap between the rich reserves of works of old manufacturers such as Xuanji Shimei, "Phantom Mirror Nordlin" regrets to cut off, "Three-body" has not yet been officially launched, equivalent to the current only "Spirit Cage" a work to carry the company banner, although this work has a lot of influence Fans, but compared to the accumulation of other works is still slightly lacking, so the high valuation can only be ranked third.
Fourth place: Dream Painting
Representative works: "Blessing of heavenly officials", "The Daily Life of the Immortal King", "Convex Hero LEAF"
Influence: 4 stars, Richness of works: 4 stars, Sustainability: 4 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 3 stars, a total of 18 stars
Advantages: Dream painting is also a domestic veteran company, works to 2D-based, these years launched "Tianguan", "Immortal King" and other works are the annual hit, the influence needless to say, its works are also original, comic adaptation, novel changes, and men to women to the public have, the overall composition is rich, these years every year there are new works baked, the richness and sustainability of the works are appropriate, as the accumulation of old company personnel is quite strong, the future can be expected.
Disadvantages: I feel that the works of Emeng are often amazing in the early stage, and the later stage is a bit unbearable, and sometimes eating melon is more interesting than the positive film, such as the first season of "Fairy King" is stunned in the case of having 500 million plays, 4.7 points in the Xiti station, the second season began to score well, the result is now more than 6 points, and the company has experienced equity changes before what to split, and I don't know if it is now completely stable.
Fifth place: Foch Films
Representative works: "Full-time Mage", "Perfect World", "Choosing Heaven"
Influence: 3 stars, Richness of works: 4 stars, Sustainability: 4 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 4 stars, a total of 18 stars
Advantages: Foch filmmakers 2D works, 3D works, the recent "Perfect World" animation for them to do a good job of a positive publicity, fight is also powerful, word of mouth directly exploded, follow-up as long as more can be expected, it depends on whether it can be stable. There are quite a few works under its umbrella, but it is still biased towards male orientation and novel adaptation, and it is expected that the follow-up can produce more acclaimed and popular works.
Disadvantages: The works are basically novel adaptations, and their own IP accumulation may not be short,At the same time, they seem to lack a work that can go out of the circle.
Sixth place: China Film Year
Representative works: "Young Song Xing", "I Am the Great Immortal", "Yuan Long"
Influence: 3 stars, Richness of works: 3 stars, Sustainability: 3 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 4 stars, a total of 16 stars
Advantages: Its works are mainly 2D, basically the genre of comic novels, the audience is male-oriented, although the original works of "Yuan Long" and "Young Song Line" have a certain popularity, they are not the kind of fire, but they have handed over hundreds of millions of plays in their hands, which shows its strength. In addition, their home and several major mainstream video platforms in China have some cooperation, more blossoming, potential this point is worth looking forward to.
Disadvantages: The original ability is the shortcoming of their family, the animation of "Core Jue" has been overturned tragically, and the original plot of the second season of the animation of "Yuan Long" has also suffered from word-of-mouth Waterloo, and the sustainability is also questionable, and the follow-up data of "Young Song Line" is weak, it is difficult not to doubt whether their family is stable or not. It is said that the plan for the third season of works such as "Yuan Long" has been launched, and I only hope that everything will go well.
Seventh place: Phantom Dimension
Representative works: "Fighting to Break the Sky", "Martial Qiankun"
Influence: 3 stars, Richness of works: 2 stars, Sustainability: 2 stars, Word of mouth: 4 stars, Potential: 4 stars, a total of 15 stars
Advantages: The technical strength of The Phantom Dimension is not to be said, from taking over the "Dou Break the Sky" to now determining the year, the production strength of the Phantom Wei is visibly improving with the naked eye, when the 4th season of the Dou Wei was spat on, to the three-year covenant Word of mouth exploded, we can see the growth of their family. The latest valuation of Xianwei is 870 million yuan, and the news of the upcoming listing has been announced. At present, when it comes to fantasy, everyone is mainly praising.
Disadvantages: The current richness of Xianwei's works is very problematic, because the focus on "Fighting to Break the Sky" has been handed over to other companies to do, making people wonder how their family's production capacity is, the sustainability and the richness of the work must be marked with a question mark, if the fight is successful, they will definitely be on the next level, but if there is an accident, it may not be easy to say.
8th place: Jossen
Representative works: "The Bad Man Who Painted the Rivers and Lakes", "The Protégé of the Transformation of the Painting of the Rivers and Lakes", "The Spiritual Lord of the Painting of the Rivers and Lakes"
Influence: 4 stars, Richness of works: 3 stars, Sustainability: 2 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 2 stars, a total of 14 stars
Advantages: Ruosen is also a domestic veteran animation company, years of accumulation of influence is not a word, the work to the original 3D male orientation, its "Painting jianghu" series has been derived from a number of product types, has a high reputation in the country, the last season of bad people after the broadcast of the official reputation has been picked up, but also announced the next season and the big movie plan, the future is still worth looking forward to.
Disadvantages: At present, Ruosen still has a lot of business difficulties, and the news of auctioning shares has been reported before: 38.99% of the equity of Ruosen worth 66.047 million yuan has been judicially auctioned. In addition, the last film has poor results, the richness of the work is still lacking, and the outsourcing project of "Tomb of the Gods" is not followed, and it can only be said that I hope that they will tide over the difficulties as soon as possible and get back on track.
Ninth place: Luo Shui Huayuan
Representative works: "Fox Demon Little Red Lady", "Dragon Clan"
Influence: 3 stars, Richness of works: 2 stars, Sustainability: 2 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 3 stars, a total of 13 stars
Advantages: Luo Shuihua's original works are mainly 2D, once the same as Emeng, so there are also quite a lot of industry experience and technology accumulation, and currently mainly cooperate with Penguin Home to produce works, and its "Fox Demon Little Red Lady" animation reputation score is stable.
Disadvantages: Luo Shuihuayuan's biggest drawback at present is that the richness of its works is not high, the main representative work "Fox Demon Little Red Lady", the main director of the team is Wang Xin, although it has been determined that there are many animations including "Dragon Clan", "Six Bars" and so on in the production, but it is not easy to say before seeing the film.
Tenth place: El Square Culture
Representative works: "Zhen Soul Street", "100,000 Cold Jokes", "Chinese Diary"
Influence: 2 stars, Richness of works: 2 stars, Sustainability: 2 stars, Word of mouth: 3 stars, Potential: 3 stars, a total of 12 stars
Pros: Al Square is also an old company, formerly known as Lu Hengyu and Li Shujie Studio. The 2012 "100,000 Cold Jokes" cartoon was owned by this studio. Its works are mainly 2D, the audience of the works is wide, and the reputation among anime fans is also good.
Disadvantages: Although Al Square has been launched in recent years, the overall impact is limited, the annual output is not much, "Town Soul Street" has also undergone remake, and I personally feel that their family still lacks a blockbuster work to prove themselves.
Finally, I would like to emphasize that this list is very subjective and is my personal opinion. Because of the length of the article, I personally also like Haochuan Animation, Little Crazy Pictures, Chaoshen Pictures, Rice Grain, Seven Creations Society, and many other animation companies that I personally like are not listed. I hope that one day, the domestic animation companies are shining on the first high position, I hope that there are more and more excellent animation works in our country, welcome friends to communicate together, each expressing their own opinions.
