The so-called right shoulder.

refers to the phenomenon that the subsequent sales of animated discs continue to decrease and decline.

Because the right shoulder of a person is exactly shaped in this way, there is such a saying.

Generally speaking, after the first volume of the anime is broadcast, there will definitely be a certain decline in sales, which is the normal right shoulder. After all, not everyone can afford to buy a full BD for an anime, as it's a somewhat expensive commodity.

It is almost impossible that two episodes per volume, a twelve-episode anime, and a total of six volumes of disc sales can remain stable.

Many viewers may just buy the first volume, support the original, spend five or six hundred yuan, and forget it.

In addition, with the broadcast of the anime, many factors such as the gradual loss of the original kitchen and the disappearance of consumption impulses will also lead to a decline in sales, which are normal phenomena.

However, since anime sales have a normal right shoulder, then relatively, there must also be a large right shoulder that is not a normal situation......

In fact, it's not surprising that animated discs are selling well on the right shoulder.

And this situation will occur, generally because the front roll has the power of the king or because it is sold at the price of cabbage......

The price of cabbage is easy to understand, that is, some manufacturers will lower the price of the first volume, and then give attractive bonuses to increase the sales of the first volume, to create the illusion that this work is selling well, but after the price returns to normal, the sales will be very ugly, but at that time, it was already a few months later, and the data of the initial movement has been out for a long time, and most people will only care about the sales of the initial movement.

Generally speaking, factors that have nothing to do with the quality of production affect the sales of discs, and the sales of animated discs are greatly increased.

The most famous should be the lottery brokerage method.,The first volume comes with an EVENT lottery ticket.,Or give away a handshake roll or something like that.,Resulting in the sales of the first volume of the animated disc all the way up.,Occupy the top spot.。

But this thing,It's very subtle.,People always feel that the animated disc is a bonus.,Many people buy several volumes of BD or DVD.,Maybe it's just for the lottery paper inside.,Get the lottery volume.,These people will hang the excess discs on the Internet and buy them second-hand.,Hmm...... Makers aren't necessarily excited about achieving high sales with this kind of business method.

Because it doesn't represent the quality of the work at all......

However,Using sales to measure the quality of a work,It's not a very reasonable thing.,After all, the audience's motivation for buying is elusive.,Maybe you place an order when you see the heroine.,After the goods are delivered to your home, you regret it.,Some viewers think that a certain voice actor performs very well.,I also placed an order to buy it.,And then I think the male protagonist is too stupid.,And the situation of returning the order just placed often happens.。

In short, the sales of animated discs is a metaphysics.

This cannot be the main factor in measuring the quality of a work, after all...... If you really want to use disc sales to judge whether it is good or bad, the wall of famous masterpieces can beat a large number of masterpieces......

But just because you can't measure the quality of a work doesn't mean that the sales of animated discs aren't important, in fact, it's important.

After all, it's a commercial animation, so it's just right.

Just like Gu Xue is now happy to see the gratifying results of the pre-sale of the first volume of "Embracing a Better Tomorrow", this is also an encouragement to the producers.

As far as Gu Xue knows, the first volume of "Embracing a Better Tomorrow" is neither the price of cabbage, nor the bonus of Wang Zhili.

Gu Xue had reason to be happy.

But now some say that "Embrace a Better Tomorrow" could top this year's right-shoulder chart in disc sales......

When Gu Xue first saw this, she felt that the other side was talking nonsense, but after thinking about it carefully, she finally realized a very serious matter.

There will be a large right shoulder in the animation.,In addition to factors such as the price of cabbage and the bonus of the king's power,,There is also a very important factor.,That is, the follow-up development of the work is very disappointing.。

This will also lead to a precipitous drop in the sales of the work's discs.

And this is different from the decline in sales caused by factors such as Wang Zhili's cabbage price, which is a heavy blow to the producer, because the first two factors do not match the animation plot at all, and the decline in disc sales has little to do with the quality of the animation itself, but because of the follow-up development of the work, the right shoulder ...... It's not as simple as not matching sides.

And the second episode of "Embracing a Better Tomorrow" to be broadcast next week happens to be a key node in the plot of the whole animation.

Turning...... It's a bit big, maybe too big for the audience to accept.

At first, Gu Xue felt that as long as the first episode of the animation was done a little better, and then the number of subsequent episodes was strictly controlled, the animation would definitely be able to maintain a fairly good follow-up rate and popularity.

But now she was a little skeptical of her own ideas.

The second episode let the heroine quit or something, isn't it too cruel for an otaku......

Especially when the first episode got off to a good start, the male protagonist didn't have many people who liked it, but the female protagonist was desperately praised for being cute.

emmm……

Frankly.

Gu Xue, who was kneeling on the bed, was a little panicked.

She can have a hunch that if the audience really can't accept it, what will happen, first of all, the UPs who are just blowing the first episode may release a video to spray the animation......

Then the chase rate may drop significantly.

Even if Gu Xue thinks that the heroine Alice actually quits in the animation, it doesn't matter much, and it won't affect the plot later at all.

But people are emotional creatures, and if you really disappoint the audience, they won't care how good your plot will be......

"Are you mentally prepared......

Gu Xue finally understood what Miyamoto Hui meant.

She looked at the screen of her mobile phone, thinking about how to minimize the impact of the heroine's exit in this first episode, as for the plot...... It's simply not possible.

The animations are all done.

The number of later episodes is also based on the number of previous episodes, unless Gu Xuege's audience is half a year, don't even think about it.

But for half a year, this animation has long been cool.

And how should the plot unfold next?

So it is an established fact that the heroine withdraws, and she can only think about how to reduce the impact now.

But after thinking about it, Gu Xue didn't think of a good solution, the best solution was to wait for the broadcast, look at the situation, and take one step at a time......

"Forget it."

Gu Xue thought about it and couldn't think of any good way, so she simply gave up.

Anyway, it can't be changed now.

Moreover, although Gu Xue was a little panicked now, she still felt that it was nothing, as long as she ...... If it doesn't happen that the audience on the whole network says that they want to give up, Gu Xue doesn't think it's a big problem.

Suppressing some worries in her heart, Gu Xue made up her mind, and planned to get up, wash and eat, and then go to the CDD animation workshop.

Just before getting up.

Gu Xue noticed her sitting posture.

“……”

Gu Xue pulled the quilt abruptly, covering her round and white thighs, and then covered her suddenly red face with both hands, and said helplessly: "What the hell am I doing!" ”

In fact, during this period of time, Gu Xue's changes are really getting bigger and bigger, some of which she can perceive, and some of which she doesn't feel inappropriate now, such as the sitting posture, if she hadn't caught a glimpse of it when she finally got up, Gu Xue would definitely not have noticed......

I shouldn't have changed into that skirt just to be cool!

The girl's body is too soft, and it's not good at all!

It's so soft that it feels like it can split the forks......

Gu Xue, who covered her face, complained.

Then she was silent for a moment, and suddenly showed an expression of interest......

Half an hour.

Gu Rou came to Gu Xue's door again, and walked in without knocking on the door.

As he walked, he said:

"Xiaoxue, ...... to eat"

Speaking of which, Gu Rou suddenly couldn't speak anymore, and burst out laughing.

On the bed, Gu Xue saw Gu Rou and was stunned for a while.

"Ah......h
