ReikiShutuagi said: Although someone mentioned it, I wonder if the sales will actually go up for some of the episodes released (the better fights) for JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Especially next year after the Egypt section hits. Since that sort of stuff happens extreme rarely for other series, I doubt it will happen for JoJo. Only extras can boost the later volumes above the first volume. KKK is the only example I can think of that had a larger v2 than v1(without any amazing extras), but that was a sub-1k seller. |
| Lol at people thinking Jojo is low XD show me a 40+ episode series that sold 10K+ per volume (2-3 episode per volume) :( And remember that the manga sales are getting a boost to. It's mostly episodic too, I'm only buying the ones with fights I like e.g. D'arby, Vanilla Ice, Dio This deserves so much more, it ain't even funny :( 21. *3,521 13,633 Tokyo Ghoul OP "unravel" by TK from Ling Tosite Sigure |

Atram151 said: Good to see NGNL holding strong, and it should add more next week. Also, Love Live! just keeps rolling along. Its disc sales would probably be enough for a 2nd season, and the boost to the source material (which was the light novel) was really impressive. Just depends if a further boost to the source material is needed, whether there is more source material to adapt (haven't read the light novel anyhow), and a few other factors will determine if a 2nd season is made. There is plenty of material as they only used 3 of the 6 novels, and a second season would most likely follow the same pace of 3 novels/12 episodes. I'm happy to hear about there being enough material to adapt, being a fan of Nogenora. That means it should have a high chance of getting a 2nd season eventually. Rachmaninow said: I do agree about NGNL though (btw, I've seen this Nogenora abbreviation used a few times already and tbh it's pretty stupid; go with NGNL instead). Sorry, i'm just using the abbreviation from the official twitter. Those usually stick in my mind more than other abbreviations. |

| Good to see Love Live! still getting decent sales. |
 |
| Anyone know what is wrong with Hanayamata that it's getting bad preorder numbers? |
 |
| JoJo selling really good, pretty awesome since it's a good anime, it deserves it! No Game No Life also with good sales, nice! I'm hoping for a second season. Mahouka not selling as good as the others but still selling nicely, I thought it was an awesome anime, let's see if they're going to continue it in another season *_* People saying that JoJo is selling bad? Well, comparing to the first season sales then yes but we have to consider that it was just the first week, I'm sure it will sell enough to keep the same "status" as the first season. |

Hoppy said: Anyone know what is wrong with Hanayamata that it's getting bad preorder numbers? I'm really enjoying the series, so these are not the things I dislike about, It has a bigger focus on drama and a ongoing storyline compared to other CGDCT series, so I don't think the fans of the genre are that interested in it. But aside from that? I don't know, it right in the middle of the pack(mean is at 1.8k) for summer 2014 stalker estimates. So it just got unlucky, like a lot of series.

scytheavatar said: Hoppy said: Anyone know what is wrong with Hanayamata that it's getting bad preorder numbers? It started off in a respectable position on the Amazon charts, but seems unable to gain momentum. But yeah coming off so soon after Love Live means that it wouldn't be easy for Hanayamata to excite otakus when compared to Love Live. Genre fatigue is setting in then. rederoin said: Hoppy said: Anyone know what is wrong with Hanayamata that it's getting bad preorder numbers?

School Idol Project is a Japanese multimedia project co-developed by ASCII Media Works' Dengeki G's Magazine, music label Lantis, and animation studio Sunrise. The project revolves around a group of fictional school girls who become idols in order to save their school from shutting down. It launched in the August 2010 issue of Dengeki G's Magazine, and went on to produce music CDs, anime music videos, two manga adaptations, and video games. A 13-episode anime television series produced by Sunrise and directed by Takahiko Kyōgoku aired in Japan between January and March 2013, with a second season airing between April and June 2014. Both anime series are licensed in North America by NIS America. An animated film has also been announced. That moment when you still dont know wtf you are talking about. Like I said, using stalker and reblogging estimates doesn't make you intelligent. It's getting old how nobody can say shit in these threads without you being a dick and insulting them for "not knowing how sales work". Everyone on MAL is allowed to speak.

| The important thing isn't when the franchise came into being but when they used the plotlines in question. Which I don't believe that Love Live did until the anime began - or at the earliest when the manga began, which was still in 2012 and thus after Hanayamata. Please correct me if I'm wrong there but I don't believe there was anything with that sort of storyline in the Love Live universe before that Also this is working under the assumption that you call it a Love Live ripoff because of some of the similarities in plot elements. I don't know what else you would call them similar over, but if there is a different reason for your claim please do clarify. |

Edit: Not sure why all this fanboy rage is going around. I'm watching the show, it just isnt anything special. Hence its mediocre sales. |
SolvyTwerk4Jesus said: Have you just not seen the PVs or what? What do you mean by that? The music videos? I've watched one of the two that were out before Hanayamata began publishing, which didn't have any resemblance to Hanayamata. Nor did later ones. |

I wait for this post every week. thank you guys. Seeing people who argue about the taste of each other is always enjoyable. I occasionally try to do my part in helping to counteract the strong aura of ignorance and would-be-hilarious-if-they-weren't-actually-serious remarks, but there's only so much a mere mortal such as myself can do for people who abide by the notion of objective taste (or more specifically, the notion that "good taste" means anything other than "tastes that are similar to my own") and the like. |

Going by the charts above 3k zone, I can agree with almost all the shows—except the ones I'm not watching—of why people in Japan would like it. There's more "hype" per say around SAO, Sailor moon, and Free sales. While shows like Aldnoah get good sales (maybe because of Urobutcher?), and Black Butler gets okay sales because of it returning to the original manga storyline. My opinion may not mean anything, but if anything, from what I've seen, the stuff this summer that I thought would do okay in sales are. Plus Hanayamata hasn't shown anything great in all of its episode to surprise viewers or give them something to which they should support the sales. |

Tyrel said: I'm pretty sure it being Aniplex show has MUCH more to do with Aldnoah hype. West overestimates Urobuchi's influence. Both fans and skeptics. Just don't talk about him when mentioning Aldnoah because he isn't that relevant here.And obviously those 3 weeks of episodes showed in the Preorders. I'm not obsessing over it, I'm just pulling ideas out. There's a reason why I had a (?) question mark. And no, those three weeks of episodes don't show anything because the show was solicited after they aired. If anything, it isn't doing as well as other Aniplex shows. |

| I'm enjoying Hanayamata. It's the only show I'm following this season (last season I followed Love Live 2 and Inugami-san to Nekoyama-san). The art and characters are nice (I'm surprised the moe otaku are turned off by the art, its art style fits very well into the moe mold), and I don't really mind the drama. No genre fatigue here, and I've stuffed myself with moe SoLs recently. So far I like Hanayamata more than, for example, Kiniro Mosaic and Yuru Yuri. rederoin said: Pre-order rankings =/ Sales That aside, you seem be confused as to what sales mean.

| Why are some people comparing Love Live! and Hanayamata? They are nothing alike! Love Live is a multimedia franchise 2.5D idol show. Hanayamata is an adaption from the Manga Kirara Time family (i.e. Moe to the max). There is nothing similar about them and their potential target audience apart from both being anime. BTW, I enjoyed Love Live and I'm really enjoying Hanayamata. And as for Hanayamata being chinese???? Yosakoi is about as Japanese as you can get!! I'm lucky enough to live near a Japanese collage that has a awesome drum team as well as a Yosakoi group and it really is amazing to watch live! |

What I can't believe is how modern it is, Yosakoi started in 1954. Which gives me another reason why Hanayamata isn't getting the proper number of preorders, yosakoi, despite being a modern dance is based off traditional dances (wearing happi and yukata at least in Japan, in other countries who have Yosakoi teams sometimes dress differently) and to the buying fanbase in Japan, it may come off as way too Japanese. |
