Q:
What is the difference between hit on someone and fall for someone ?
A:
To hit on someone means that you're flirting with them, but to fall for someone means that you like them, but you don't necessarily have to be flirting with them.
Hitting on someone is different than flirting though. Flirting is usually back and forth, you flirt with eachother, but hitting on someone is usually one-sided. For example, if you've ever seen Beauty and the Beast, Gaston constantly hits on Belle, even though Belle has no interest in him. Also, while flirting is more subtle hints about liking someone, hitting on someone is a lot more obvious.
Falling for someone is a lot different than both of these. When you fall for someone, it just means that you really like them. For example, you can say you've fallen for a celebrity. That means you really like them (in a romantic way). They don't even have to know you exist, since you're not hitting on them or flirting with them. Falling for someone just means you've fallen in love. (saying you've fallen for someone is just a short way of saying you've fallen in love)

Other questions about "Hit"
Q:
The first great hit for the production-committee system was Evangelion (1995-1996). It is an important point that TV Tokyo, which aired Evangelion as the flagship station of a national network, did *not* join the production-committee. Since then, the production-committee system has often excluded TV stations, or TV stations do neither necessarily join nor share any copyrights with the committee, even if it is the key broadcaster (Just for your information, a TV station joined the committee when the forementioned Tylor aired) because it merely sells a 30-minute broadcast slot to the committee; it, as a result, enables the station to protect itself, claiming that it does neither share any copyright or any responsibility for the show, even when unions should request the station to raise the budget so that anime artists could live a decent life. The TV station says, “I’m sorry, but we have no power or authority over the issue.” Objectively speaking, the production-committee system serves as a fail-safe mechanism for diversifying the risk of being protested by anime production workers over labor conditions, while it serves as a group investment system.
