Additionally, powers are public\nknowledge in _One Punch Man_ since there is a hero bureau that protects\neveryone, and there are monster threats and such that cause very large amounts\nof damage, but psychic powers are a secret to the public in _Mob Psycho_. We\ncan see this in Reigen's initial reaction to Mob, since he doesn't believe him\nwhen he says he has psychic powers. If he lived in _One Punch Man_ 's world,\nthen he wouldn't have been so skeptical about the _existence_ of psychic\npowers, but would have focused his skepticism on whether Mob in particular had\nthem. From what I recall, his reaction was very much of someone who did not\nbelieve psychic powers exist at all.\n\nThus, it is most likely that the appearances of the characters in each others'\nuniverses are simply cameos. You can ignore them as far as canon goes, or you\ncan simply assume a different version of Mob exists in _One Punch Man_. As far\nas Saitama appearing in _Mob Psycho_ , he could be a fictional character if he\nonly appears on cell phones and stuff. And it's worth noting that Saitama\nisn't famous in his world, so it doesn't really make sense for people to be\nusing him as their cellphone wallpaper (it's possible to work around this, but\ndue to the unlikelihood, it points to this probably not being the universe of\n_One Punch Man_.)\n\nRegarding Arale, she also presents canon inconsistencies to the _Dragon Ball_\nuniverse. She may have meshed better with the original _Dragon Ball_ , but by\nthe time of the _Dragon Ball Super_ episode she appeared in, the tone of the\nseries has changed a lot, to the point where that episode felt a bit like a\nnon sequitur. Vegeta even ends up getting self-referential and meta when he\nstarts calling her a \"character from an 80s gag manga\". _Dragon Ball Z_ and\n_Dragon Ball Super_ aren't usually that meta, so it's kind of hard to\ndetermine how canonical that episode was, and thus how canonical Arale living\nin the same world is. The canon of _Dragon Ball_ also presents some problems\nto _Dr. Slump_. Has Arale now died at least once, via Majin Buu?\n\nDue to these inconsistencies, we can't really conclude anything definite with\nregards to the canons of any of these series.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2023-05-29T14:24:33.163", "id": "68020", "last_activity_date": "2023-05-29T14:43:31.277", "last_edit_date": "2023-05-29T14:43:31.277", "last_editor_user_id": "19307", "owner_user_id": "19307", "parent_id": "54098", "post_type": "answer", "score": 0 } ]

Since most TV anime are now essentially\n> glorified OAV series, the producers no longer feel the need to plan for a\n> show to be ridiculously long without knowing if it'll be a hit. So this way,\n> they plan shows a season at a time, wait for them to air, and see if they\n> hit. If they hit, THEN they'll do a second and third season. It's just a\n> whole lot less wasteful that way.\n\nThis still holds true today. Nowadays, these sponsors' shapes are in the form\nof ~~[fidget spinning evil masterminds](http://hoshiiro.jp/)~~ production\ncommittees and the schedules much more tightly controlled by having networks\nbe part of them. [A lot of anime nowadays is produced this\nway](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nhT1ebLxejyagiiLET8ajDu9CnHaTrhsRsjNdiRfur0/edit#gid=1961048431)\never since the start of the millenium. Your _Arifureta_ example is made by a\ncommittee composed of [Overlap](https://over-lap.co.jp/lnv/) (Mixed Media\nplanning and publishing), [Hakuhodo DY Music and\nPictures](https://www.hakuhodody-map.jp/) (Production and distribution),\n[FuRyu](https://www.furyu.jp/) (Games and multimedia content),\n[AT-X](https://www.at-x.com/) (Broadcaster), [Sony Music\nSolutions](http://www.smci.jp/s/smci/?ima=5115) (Sound), [Tora no\nAna](https://www.toranoana.jp/) (Retailer), [Bandai Namco\nArts](https://www.bandainamcoarts.co.jp/) (Animation) and\n[Bushiroad](https://bushiroad.com/) (Promotional items, etc.) Things in\nparenthesis are just an educated quick guess on what each party would bring to\nthe table.\n\nWhy production committees? In a word: diversification. Anime in itself isn't a\nrecipe for profit, so bearing the risk of investment between a bunch of\ncompanies is better if a title flops. Also having companies that specialize in\nmany different things like music, toy making, casting, etc brings expertise\nfrom many areas when coming together to make what they like to call a \"Media\nProject\". This model has its pros and cons, but it tends to favor the\ncommittee. [Sakuga blog](https://blog.sakugabooru.com/2017/05/02/what-is-an-\nanimes-production-committee/) has a nice write-up about it.\n\nNow that we know this, back to lengths of cours for series.\n\nWhat production in cours brings to the table is mostly _stability and risk\nreduction_. If _Arifureta_ is truly a flop, economically, the committee will\nprobably cut their losses and not renew the project for more mixed media\nprojects and move on. Trying to dedicate resources for a long standing series\nwith a high risk factor would be silly on a economical standpoint.\n\nBut some companies have works that they have faith in their potential or\nenough monetary backing to make series that are longer than 1 cour. For\nexample, Kodansha had quite some faith in _Tensura_ last year to make it a\nback-to-back 2-cour series with enough leftover content for another season in\n2020 if it did well. From what I've seen, it certainly did. _Overlord_ , _One\nPunch Man_ , etc. are in a similar boat, and dividing it into cours gives the\ncommittees flexibility to either drop anime that's doing bad or simply\ncontinue making more with some time in between to recoup and restart media\ncampaigns, give animators time, plan events, etc.\n\nOf course there are other factors that could affect the length of anime like\nhow some commenters mentioned supply and demand, waiting to catch up to source\nmaterial or even legal issues, but I think the committee/cour structure is the\nmain reason for this.\n\n", "comment_count": 2, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2019-09-21T03:15:08.247", "id": "55361", "last_activity_date": "2019-09-21T03:31:55.340", "last_edit_date": "2019-09-21T03:31:55.340", "last_editor_user_id": "8266", "owner_user_id": "8266", "parent_id": "55328", "post_type": "answer", "score": 8 } ]

[ { "body": "\n\nIt's not really a matter of it being shot in film, but rather how your typical\nTV works.\n\n[This video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GJUM6pCpew) gives you a bit of\nan explanation of why NTSC runs at ~30 fps (PAL is 25 fps in comparison).\nWhile this is for NA NTSC, this is still applicable generally to Japanese\ntelevisions.\n\nIn the age where analog TV is deprecated (just just removes certain technical\nbarriers, allows for more bandwidth), the frame rate used in analog video\nsystems are still used and incorporated into DTV and HDTV standards. For the\ninterlaced 1080i format, each frame is composed of two fields, each displayed\nevery 60th of a second with a complete frame displayed every 30th of a second,\nusing an NTSC ~30 fps frame rate. Alternatively, with the progressive scan\nformat (720p/1080p) it is displayed twice every 30th of a second.\n\nTelevision programming (at least with the NTSC standard) is broadcast at 30\nfps (actually 29.97 fps), because traditionally television sets were 60 Hz,\nand would display 30 fps in an interlaced format, which mean the in one cycle,\nthese sets would draw half of the lines of the picture, then they would\ninterlace the missing lines. Therefore 60 Hz divided by 2 cycles per frame\nequals ~30 fps.\n\nPlaying film content (24 fps) has some quirks on a standard 60Hz TV, after all\nhow would you do about dividing the 24 frames into the 60Hz? The TV industry\nthis thing called a [3:2 pulldown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-\ntwo_pull_down) that essentially would use 3 cycles for one frame and two for\nthe subsequent frame. This is done to shoehorn 24 frames into 60 slots and\nproduces some unnatural jitter that usually goes unnoticed to the untrained\neye.\n\nAnime, in general, is done at 24 fps and 3:2 pulldown-ed to 30 fps. Actually\ndoing animation at 24 drawings per second, is very costly and generally\ninefficient. Most High quality animation is animated at 12 fps/8 fps\n(depending on if it's in the foreground or background) or by 2's/3's. This\nmeans there are 12 (or 8) drawings per second, each held for 2 (or 3) frames\nto make 24 fps. Anime takes shortcut for labor and budgetary reason and most\nforeground scenes are animated by 3's/4's (sometimes 2's depending on the\namount of action). CGI anime on the other hand is a whole other beast and best\nleft for another topic for another time.\n\nMuch of the 30 fps movies you see are telecined and made from a 24 fps master\n(i.e. not typically shot at 30 fps). So out of 15 frames (of 30) you'll notice\nthat for every 5 frames, there are 2 frames that are interlaced.\n\nThe 24 fps standard was the smallest number that was easily divisible by 2, 3,\n4, 6, and 8, which allowed editors to quickly find where to make their cuts\nwhich proved to be very cost effective production wise.\n\nThere are rare instances where animation is comes in 1's but it's rare.\nBubblegum Crisis 2040's opening sequence consisted of some shots that were\nsped up to 29.97 fps. But the animators were not trained to animate at that\nfps, so it came out very weird with some parts being a little bit too fast\nwhile others being too smooth for a typical anime of it's time. During the\npre-HD era, anime was shot at 24 fps and then interlaced to 29.97 fps and then\nblended with 3D CG at 30 fps, which looked fine on older TVs of it's time but\ncome out looking pretty rough when converted to more modern and progressive\nformats, esp for blue ray\n\nA notable example is in Disney's opening segment of Disney's Beauty and the\nBeast, where Belle gets on the wagon. These are high budget productions of\nwith your average anime budget pales in comparison. In the past, anime was\n[shot on 16mm\nfilm](https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/answerman/2017-03-15/.113402) and was\nof comparatively lower resolutions compared to Western counterparts.\n\nEarly animators and filmmakers figured out to create the perception of motion\nthrough much trial and error. What they found was that somewhere between 12-16\nfps would do the trick. If you fall below that threshold your brain just\npercieve it as a series of images displayed one after another. If you go above\nit, you get moving pictures.\n\nAs post people know these that while this illusion of motion works at ~16 fps,\nmore frames makes for better (i.e. smoother) quality. Thomas Edison found what\nhe believed was optimal frame rate 46 fps. According to him, anything lower\nthan that resulted in discomfort and eventual exhaustion in audience. Which\nled Edison to build a camera and film projection system that operated at at a\nhigh frame rate.\n\nThe slowness of film stocks and high cost of film (35mm was the norm) made\nthis not a good standard or starting point. It was more shooting closer to the\nthreshold of the illusion of moving pictures as most silent films at the time\nwere filmed around 16-18 fps and then projected closer to 20-24 fps. This is\nthe reason while old silent films seem sped up, sometimes used for comical\ndepicts like with Charlie Chapman.\n\n", "comment_count": 0, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2019-09-27T06:21:19.500", "id": "55419", "last_activity_date": "2019-09-28T22:42:37.917", "last_edit_date": "2019-09-28T22:42:37.917", "last_editor_user_id": "63", "owner_user_id": "63", "parent_id": "55357", "post_type": "answer", "score": 3 } ]

The meaning of 'S', however, is still unknown and is subject to\nspeculation.\n\nFrom what I've read, however, it seems like there are two possibilities as to\nwhere it originated:\n\n * **Japanese video games** \\- there is a [question](https://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/70673/in-some-games-the-rank-above-a-is-s-what-does-s-represent) about that in Arqade, with articles saying that it originated from Japanese videogames but it lacks citation, or rather, the sources the answer linked has no citations or references. A [Reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/truegaming/comments/6cav1j/s_rank_origin_in_japanese/) from a Japanese, however, provide games and manga from the 90's which uses S-rank. There is even mention of how concert seating ticket uses S-rank, too. \n\n> Now (2017), in Japan concert tickets are normally classified into\n> \"S席(=seat)\" > \"A席\" > \"B席\". I googled and at least it had been used in 1972.\n\n * **Japanese grading system** \\- from the Reddit thread linked above, it was also mentioned that it's possible that it came from an early class ranking system in the 1910's. To quote:\n\n> I think \"S席\" may mean \"Special Seat\". In Japan at least 1910, \"特等\" grade was\n> used for the top grade seats (<http://parasiteeve2.blog65.fc2.com/blog-\n> entry-1135.html>). \"特等\" > \"一等(first grade)\" > \"ニ等(second grade)\", or \"特等\" >\n> \"普通(normal or basic)\" were used past (these are also commonly used for seats\n> grades even now). \"特等\" is abbreviation for \"特別等級\" = \"Special Grade\". So S\n> may mean Special.\n\nOther board discussions links school websites and other forums with users\ngoing to universities or schools which uses up to the S-rank grading systems\n([Source\n1](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/archive/index.php/t-426179.html),\n[Source 2](http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.840911-Where-did-the-\nS-Rank-come-from)) There is also a [Wikipedia\narticle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_grading_in_Japan) that shows\nthat S-rank is used, although rarely, in schools.\n\nMost discussion about what the 'S' means are speculations, and they seem to\ncenter on the fact it could mean 'special' or 'super'.\n\nAs for _One Punch Man_ , there is no official information as to what it means\nin Saitama's world, either. Based on what I was able to find, though, _I think\nit does originate in the ranking system present in Japan and the mangaka might\nhave based this one on that_.\n\n", "comment_count": 1, "content_license": "CC BY-SA 4.0", "creation_date": "2019-09-27T00:17:17.427", "id": "55413", "last_activity_date": "2019-09-27T00:33:56.993", "last_edit_date": "2019-09-27T00:33:56.993", "last_editor_user_id": "43199", "owner_user_id": "43199", "parent_id": "55411", "post_type": "answer", "score": 13 } ]
