- Committee renewal track record - Lead committee members (NHK, Studio DEEN) have a smoothed catalogue continuation rate of 21%, above the catalogue average of 14%
- Committee collaboration history - Titles sharing at least two committee members: 2 of 8 have a catalogued successor (25%), compared with 14% across the catalogue
- Titles like this rarely return - 20 years with no new entry: of series (first entries) in that position, under 1% got a new season or film within 10 years
Runway
Anime original
This is an anime original, not an adaptation, so there is no source material to run down - renewal turns on sales and popularity rather than runway.
