CATDOLL: Why do people buy animation BDs? They will brag about it decades later.

How do animation companies make money after a new series is aired? Of course, it is through a large number of peripheral products. Among them, figures and BDs are two things we often pay attention to. So, let’s not talk about figures first. Why do people still buy BDs, which are discs? Is it for collection? Or for some special content in it?

What criteria do you use to decide whether to buy a disc? After all, it's not cheap. If it were me, I would choose a work that I can watch to the end and want to watch it again from the beginning.

Who would buy a disc these days if it weren't for the bonuses? If the bonuses aren't attractive, I wouldn't buy it even if the work itself is good. After all, you can just spend some money and watch it online.

My criteria is that the work will not be boring no matter how many times I watch it. In addition, it must be an animation with the potential for sequels. Of course, everything depends on whether I have money at the time...

I will only buy a work that I feel is worthy of a masterpiece. I don't buy it for viewing, I just collect it. If it's still good after a few decades, I can still brag about it and let the otakus who come after me see the first generation collector's edition.

I will collect some works that have social topics, such as the previous "Puella Magi Madoka Magica". Through these works, I can understand the development of the industry in different periods. After all, I am also a person who plans to enter the industry after graduation, so it is necessary to understand this aspect.
