With Hibiki, the toys not only sold like shit, but the show went over budget and got low ratings (the show even scared kids I hear). Oh, and the reason the female lead in Den-O suddenly became a little girl and the plot revolving around that? Her actress quit due to illness or harassment, can't find a good answer, so they rewrote everything there
Deaths of beloved characters is a happy ending? And Oren being camp gay comic relief makes him stand out due to how different he is from the cast, the clear contrast can be appealing, I know I loved Oren

Japan LOVES Over the Top iirc, After all, Ace Attorney and Jojo are stupidly popular for a reason

Jojo's is also stupidly smart and clever, even as it maintains being a fight comic. My all time fave manga FO-EVA.

Oren was awesome. He was a wild, quasi tranvestite OTT gay man who was also a very dangerous military badass - what an awesome combo! Couple that with Durian Arms which is green and purple goofy, but covered in huge spikes and a mohawk (shorthand bad-ass garb). The fact that he ends up as an ally rather than Inves meat was really cool. I definitely expected the "Kill your Gays" trope to be in effect.
