Seriously, YW2 is going to be over 3mil soon in Japan. YW2.5 a game thats releasing only 5 months after YW2 which hasnt even begun to slow down has high as S*** pre orders currently and isnt slowing down. (BTW Game YW1 sold over 1mil).YW is having its first movie aired and even with that a new movie has been announced (2nd film). YW the movie just broke the record with 721k advanced Tickets sold (Number 1 Sold Advanced tickets of all time in japan)Youkai Watch is probably the only franchise to stand up to Pokemon, and will at least be #2 franchise in japan this gen and maybe more to come beating out other major franchises! Crazyness, do you think Level-5 will keep at this or unforunatly let it fall down. The Milking is real and the $$$ is so much more :)

srry for terrible opening, not on my usual device, cant do anything about it :/

I think Level 5 will ruin it. They just gotta have that milk.

You think it would start showing signs, but its increasing, lets not even get started with N3ds and its amiibo functionality. Imagine Amiibos or the cards for these things?

Its 1996-1998 all over again (Pokémon) but just in japan XD

Yeah, it's increasing, but with a new game every 6 months, people will start to tire. 

if the anime remains popular it will be fine in the long run. Level-5 should consider nurturing the franchise to become Pokemon-like (i.e long-term success), at the moment they are looking to milk the shit dry

Considering how much its selling, I think L5 will milk it so dry that there would be nothing left!

SO much Mula $$$$$$$$$

well it could, most Japanese kids like hunting some bug anyway XD wwww, so games like Pokemon, Monster Hunter, Yokai watch, etc is very popular.

the formula of success is in Japan, hunting game, collecting monster, breading monster, and jrpg
