Year in review
Anime News Network's summarized the biggest events in the year in the industry as Aniplex's business plan. Theron Martin proposed this change in model to be alienating fans and predicted that it could cause backlash for the company. Carl Kimlinger highlighted the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.[1] The destruction caused by the earthquake and following tsunami disrupted and damaged a large portion of Japan, making it the most costly natural disaster in history.[2][3] The Ishinomori Manga Museum was damaged and would re-open in late 2012, a year and a half after the disaster.[4] Home video sales of anime DVDs in Japan between December 27, 2010 and June 26, 2011 were worth 19.6 billion yen, representing 18.8 of the DVD market; sales of Blu-ray Discs in the same period were worth 17.1 billion yen, representing 57% of the Blu-ray Disc market.[5]
