I don't know what the latest trend is, but what will always sell is:

- Hentai
- Nazism / white nationalism
- Furries

or a combination of these

- Nazism / white nationalism
I'd think real far right supporters shun direct nationalism and encode their views within seemingly innocuous stances, that is, proponency of legislation ultimately favoring white population. Ergo, I doubt frank Nazism is trending.

hi, i want to sell keychains but idk the trend what to make. please gimme informations
Maybe go with characters from popular seasonal anime: Winter 2019 - Anime - MyAnimeList.net. Also take a look at what themes are trending among best selling anime gear on big sites such as Amazon.

Those are not far right supporters you're talking about, those are generic right wing dudes, whom the left loves portreying as nazis, wheres they are not.

Real national socialists do not shun national socialism and they generally love anime.

What, generic right wing dudes exercise race-motivated politics?

Besides, I was describing cryptofascism which definitely is far right. My point was that you should remove "Nazism / white nationalism" from your list as they're definitely not trending, and possibly replace it with cryptofascism.

Obviously there's no anime with far right statements in canonical product, lol. But we're talking about making keychains, where one's free to incorporate whatever themes they wish. And you're suggesting blatant far right themes to be trending, which is simply not true.

If by "How do you translate cryptofascism in anime?" you meant "Where have you seen cryptofacism in anime?", I'm sorry to have misunderstood your question. I thought you were inquiring ways to entertain such views within anime.

Doesn't mean they're popular when you can find images for nazi anime characters. Now, perhaps one shouldn't claim they're trending...

Sorry, I don't have statistics coined by McKinsey and the United States intelligence services to prove a widely understood point to some quasi-intellectual on a Warcraft III modding forum.

Do some fucking googling, man.

I mean even the man who fucking coined the term "alt-right", Richard Spencer acknowledges his followers' anime fandom:


My point is, this is a segment you can target with anime merch.

Okay, thanks, noted. Those new animes looks weird though o.o
Nah, I was simply suggesting to make keychains with nazi anime waifus, as they would sell - answering the OP's question.
lol thats interesting, i think I saw some like that. Might be make one or two of this kind to see how its sell. Thanks.

Obviously. It'd only be expected when e.g. making figure for Hellsing Ultimate Nazi antagonist. This is different from OP's question though, who asked for trending themes.

So the subset of anime viewers who like Nazism like Nazism? *gasps* None of these links expose evidence to state Nazism is trending within anime community. If anything, Nazism is in decline due to growing popularity of anime.

Anime world explores many themes more freely due to the target audience, otakus, being such a niche group, whereas traditional shows target wider demographic. Under such conditions, you can more easily get away with toxic themes.

Judging by the conversation this far, it's obvious you won't change your list. I'm just left wondering why did you feel the urge to introduce irrelevant themes to this thread and refuse to correct your behavior. This isn't Something Else.

Where are the numbers then, BlueSaint? Any statistics or data to underpin your quasi-intellectual mumbo-jumbo? All I'm seeing here is a man emotionally trying to defend his fandom, long overtaken by Dickie Spencer and SS cosplayers without a single link to serve as proof of any sort.
