One product or franchise is not going to be good enough to turn Kadokawa into a profitable business. For all practical purpose, Kadokawa is still mostly a book and magazine publisher (that may have gotten lucky with Kancolle).

The reason I made the post is that I thought players here will be interested in the business behind the game. Anyway, it is not just Kadokawa-Dwango that struggles in the "otaku business" (Konami, Square-Enix etc are just as laughably bad in making money). Just because there is apparent "boom" in the Otaku business last 20 years, it failed utterly to create their own version of Bill Gates.
