>>80812052In hindsight, this is a very-Japanese problem, there have been plenty of companies there that have attempted earnestly to expand overseas and quite often they just can't do it. Usually I have chalked that up to different costs of production or too high of differences in work culture / compatability but even for soft power media stuff, which is like the one spot where Japan has been massively successful with anime/otaku goods abroad, they STILL fucked up. Incredible, sasuga Riku.
