I’m just here to look. If i ever post that just means i’ve grown from from a 20 year old with a low self esteem to a 20 year old with a slightly higher one.
You gotta feel for Blue Archive's global marketing team.
Collab with anime-adjacent creators and you reach your target demographic, but a lot of them already hate us, and would destroy the culture around the game as we know it if they played it en masse. As we've well seen elsewhere.
Collab with respected BA creators and the existing community is happy, but you're hardly reaching new audiences.
Their purpose is to grow the game and make money so Arona can put food on the table. But they can't win. Your average Western anime fan is not compatible with what Blue Archive means to us.
