A few intriguing titles there.

Sword Art Online, Sword Art Online everywhere...

hetalia going strong, KuroBas going strong, KanoUso going strong, Hana ni Kedamono finally passes 60k(I'm very happy about this), and Orange and Ayakashi Hisen finally rising up slowly but surely.

SAO's still not fading...

Good to see Tonari no Seki-kun and baka to test manga.
Orange - the next hit? since the sales for the first volume is really good for a shoujo manga

And for 4 straight weeks all volumes of SAO continues to sell. This is really something.
Tomorrow vol12 of AW goes on sale. Wonder how it will fare.

too much Sword Art Online

and congrats to Naruto

I think it will be the next hit too. I hope so.

"*7, *,*77,605 *,*78,681 Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru Vol. 10"

Second season when ~poko?

Beelzebub +____+

*1, 1,754,309 1,754,309 One Piece Vol. 67
only this much ?

July 30th - August 5th
ah ,the volume come out only in 5th august ,next week we see the full week selling.

With the way things are going looks like SAO has the potential to become a running series? or at the least a definite Season 2, just like KnB <3

wonder whether the SAO blueray/dvd sales will be similar to the LN or just compensate them

Literally similar as in 100k-200k a disc? Nah, that'd make it the best selling how in history. BUt if you just mean "also very very good" then signs are pointing to yes so far. Since it went up for order, SAO v1 hasn't dropped below #23 on Amazon and is averaging #12. It'll drop as time goes by but it's the strongest performance so far outside of Horizon (which it's almost on par with, for where Horizon was when it was solicited the same amount of time).

Picked up the Hetalia 5 special edition.

Hype ... ...... Never mind.

Another needs another season

Anime ending was pretty conclusive, at least as much as a show like that can be. Do the novels pick up from there with a different story, or did the anime have an original ending that would make continuing impossible? I assumed the latter.

In any case it sold very poorly, so while the good novels sales might drive a sequel, that would also sell poorly, and I'm guessing PA Works is much more interested in doing other things with their limited time even if a sequel were pitched to them. Tari Tari is going to blow away Another's sales (though I liked Another better myself), for example.

wonder when the next volume of to aru no index will come out

Who cares about SAO anymore, Pandora Hearts vol. 18 is up there and that's all I needed to see.
