I'm kinda surprised Ben-to is so high on the list, I guess it was really successful in Japan.

Ah, you cut the screenshot right at the limit:

4 新 →unfinished→ KOTOKO アクセル・ワールド ED 5/16 9735 9735

I hope I don't sound like an ass by pointing out a song missing from the charts every now and then. :| You usually do all of these by hand, dtshyk, don't you? If it can help, I find that this website is a pretty good way of not missing a single anison release that makes it into the charts.

Someone else who watched them! The weekly videos were great, though to be honest, I liked the ones from the previous guy (qwysn607) even better. A shame they all eventually ended up stopping doing these one after the other... and that no one's picked it up after keroro00inovatorrk. I used to religiously wait for that one video every week for like 2 years. D:

Fap material. The BDs have more fanservice than the TV version. I remember seeing pictures where they show more of Kabaru's body, the other ecchi scenes are upgraded as well.

Mouretsu Pirate at #3...no comment.

Also it's great too see May'n's single is still thriving on the charts. And I think Kotoko's single also made it if I'm not wrong ending the week at around 9k sales.

Yeah, I watched the ones from qwysn607, too!! I liked the previous guy better because they had from 100 to 1 (and not 50-1 like here and Oricon site), and Keroro, too(?) (I was a bit confused about the style if it was based on the same weekly chart or not).

Oh Ben-To, you deserve so much more. Sad to see that the show isn't doing well; and that is mildly said.

Yeah, I agree. It's a shame it's probably not gonna sell well enough to warrant a second season. It will probably struggle to break even..
