Wow I thought Sword Art Online was the one with the most sales for light novels, guess I was wrong. Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou is selling like crazy.
Madan no Ou to Vadanis actually got a second week this time? That series has a long track record of getting somewhat decent first weeks and then disappearing instantly.
Index: NT looking somewhat weaker than previous volumes
And Biblia shoots up from 100th to 40th on my all time list. Still a long way down on volume 4 (the next lowest) in 8th, though.

There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.
Seemingly slow week but fantastic to see this up there.
Yes it is.
I need to start reading Magi. The first season of the anime was alright but I bet the manga is better.
Yep. The first season screwed things over a lot, but the second season is better at being faithful.
True, but I'd still recommend reading the manga from the start. It's a whole different experience than watching the anime and makes falling in love with the series so much easier.

Yeah definitely. I'd say that the manga is a lot better than the anime as a whole and that you should take the time to read it.

I'm surprised as well.
Does this Biblia novel very interesting novel ?
Is good to see: Kuroshitsuji, Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic, Magi: Sinbad no Bouken, and Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun in the top ten.. Is a shame for SnK.
Thanks for the news Snowi-chan^^

I want an anime for this, seriously.
Only vol 1 of the LN is translated for now. There's also a manga version. I remember when I first saw Shiori I absolutely adored her :D
Also glad to see Koe no Katachi's still going strong.
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness."
I added Giant Killing Manga/Anime, Hachimitsu ni Hatsukoi, Pin to Kona, Fujiyama-san wa Shishunki and Dimension W on my plan to read list :3
I added Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou Manga version on my plan to read too, it looks really good and interesting. I really like Shinokawa, Shioriko's character design, she looks really beautiful.
And I'll ask once more: is there any convenient way to check the sales per volume of some manga or LN without searching for every weekly ranking on ANN or somewhere else and summarizing the ones for desired title? I'm more than sure that somebody made them somewhere at least for popular titles or for 2000+ titles.
For light novels, the animetics blog has all MAL's data for each year (2009-2013) collected onto individual posts here.
I have data for all LN volumes that have sold 100k for the data we have available (the earliest of which is Nov 2008) on the second part of the initial post here: http://forums.lndb.info/showthread.php?tid=54. This includes some series/sales not reported by MAL, and is ranked by sales total. There is also a list of 50k+ sales in 2013 at the top of page 2, and a list of 50k+ sales for 2014 at the top of that post.
I don't know if there's an equivalent for manga.
