Male-biased The fact that 90% are male is an unusual figure, and the high proportion of people in their 40s is also a pessimistic aspect. It can be implied that a weak core fandom has been revealed through the data. (IVE) Some people claim that the Aladdin data is distorted due to "parents' purchasing power," but that is not really the case. Overwhelming proportion of QR sales An even worse sign for RESCENE's future is that the proportion of QR versions, which lack collectible value, is as high as 65%. In other words, it can be seen that there was a large influx of temporary impulse purchases. This is something unimaginable for a fandom with a solid core. Conclusion - The first-week sales for Pulse are decent, but the substance is lacking.
