21. *39,622 *,*97,127 Shaman King: Flowers Vol.4 I can't recall when was the last time that I got to see mankin having a second week like this one! Keep it going! |
| Last Tokyo Ravens volume got 18k sales from 7 days. It didn't rank in its second week This one gets 11k from 3 days. Accel World vol 15 seems to be vastly outselling volume 14, which only reached 102.7k sales before dropping out. Mahouka is still 16k off its final sales for the most recent volume. Strike the Blood sales for earlier volumes: vol 6 28150 vol 7 27258 vol 8 25543 So vol 9 getting 37150 is a nice boost. It's possible that it will rank again next week, though not all that likely. Of course, volume 1 is still ranking as well. I wonder if any of the others will reappear. Golden Time's sales has passed those of volume 6, though that's at least partly due to luck - looking at where it ranked this week. And in the manga charts, SnK's days of dominance seem to finally be over. |

| KanColle chugging along with it's popularity, can't wait to see how the anime turns out. |

Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Happy for Gin no Saji. It's a good series. |
| Good to see Magi and Jojo so high up in the rankings right now. Though seeing Shingeki no Kyojin with ranks 40 and 42 worries me a tiny bit, considering the popularity the anime got. Well whatever, one truth always prevails in the end I guess. Also it's great seeing Gin no Saji with such high sales, I should give it a read. |

| And the Fairy tail sales decline continues. Used to come out of the gates in the 400k-500k range. |
 |
| They're a bit low, but I'm happy to see Oresama Teacher and Again!! ^^' |

Kiratron said: And the Fairy tail sales decline continues. Used to come out of the gates in the 400k-500k range. Really? Fairy Tail has always maintained a 250-350k sales range for the first week for years now. Plus volume 40 has only been out for 3 days in this weeks sales rank. Did I miss a really big year in terms of sales??? |
| Strike the Blood first volume is still there. Wow |
| *5. 136,451 *,136,451 Kingdom Vol.32 |
| 22,008 *22,008 Highschool DxD Vol.16 Kagai Jugyou no Day Walker sweet high school dxd reached 22k novel sells in just 2days. |
| Once Nanatsu gets its anime break, it would likely overtake Fairy Tail. The guy deserved it, he has a better sense of humour and talent in drawing large-scaled, detailed battle scenes. Again! hanging around in the mid 30s thousand once more. Gisèle Alain has very similar character designs to Kaoru Mori's ones. Sure hope it enjoys the same sales results if it's good too. |
| Holy shit, I should really start reading Silver Spoon soon although I'm still waiting for the second half to air next season. I've started reading Mashiro no Oto recently but was kinda surprised to see it up there as well. Oh and High School DxD LN 16 is out now too huh? Nice. |

| Hmm, i see no Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio on the list. It seems like another case of anime adaptation doesn't boost it source material significantly. And honestly i don't get at all the overhype surrounding Kantai Collection. seriously, people everywhere seem to talk about it very often (tumblr, 4ch, Mania). The last time i checked on Mania Game thread, it doesn't seem any different than your usual MMORPG. What makes it so special then? Cute girls? |
Amiluhur said: Did a new volume come out just last week? Otherwise what you said does not really make sense. Without a new volume, only a super popular series (like Shingeki) would boost sales so much that the sale of an old volume could even beat the multitude of new volumes being published in the week to make to the chart (which as I said before, even the #50 can be considered very successful because of the intense competition) Hmm, i see no Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio on the list. It seems like another case of anime adaptation doesn't boost it source material significantly. Amiluhur said: Did you read the Kantai Collection news thread I made earlier?? The funny thing is that the game is more like personal browser game than a MMORPG (interaction with other players mostly come in the form of combat rehearsal not the actual battle/quest itself). Anyway I wrote a few posts in that thread in an attempt to explain its appeal from contents' point of view:And honestly i don't get at all the overhype surrounding Kantai Collection. seriously, people everywhere seem to talk about it very often (tumblr, 4ch, Mania). The last time i checked on Mania Game thread, it doesn't seem any different than your usual MMORPG. What makes it so special then? Cute girls? http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=668025 Of course the game is also helped A LOT by what fans take as a genuine free-to-play model (in fact Kadokawa effectively admitted that it loses money in running the game but hopes to recoup the cost and make profit by selling things related to the franchise): |

| DxD 16 sell 50k+. Code-Zero have already start translating just as I read his blog though it only Life 0. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |

symbv said: Yes and with that Kodansha Box edition costing 1500 yen a copy it is also 2-3x the cost of most LN bunko and manga editions so it represents a lot of money. The Monogatari Second Season anime sales may be down but the Final Edition novel sales are strong as ever....What is eye-catching is Owarimonogatari selling >110k making it the bestselling book of ALL GENRES (except manga) in Japan last week... |
scytheavatar said: High Speed ranked twice. Last time:One thing I have always wondered, why do Light novels published by Kyoani never rank? Does no one in Japan care about them, or do they don't appear in the Oricon rankings for some reason? Weekly Oricon Rankings (Bunko): 29/07/2013~04/08/2013 Ranking / This week's sales / Cumulative Sales / Release Date / Titles ... 26 **8,821 *22,704 2013/07/08 High Speed! |
Xinception said: Anyone know NouCome's, Outbreak Company's and Log Horizon's statistics? Last volume of Log Horizon (vol 6) came out in March and had recorded sales of 13443. Other two didn't rank with their latest volumes - both pre-anime airing. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Wow. The LN sales for Kore wa Zombie is even worse than I thought previously. Or is it not that bad? Also, why the hell is Again!! so stable? It should have broke into 40k-50k by now... |
