| NGNL no.1? Good, good. |
| Your honor, I never wrote this post. |
| Rokka no Yuusha is on the list, it's something *shrugs* I would also like to check Isekai Shokudou, but it's a new novel and probably won't get translated any time soon, if ever. |
 |
| Again at top. Happy for NGNL, need a second season soon. Awaiting SAO's arrival in the sales ranking. |

| What's going on with Index... |
| NGNL and Bakemono no Ko still doing well... I'm kinda curious about Isekai Shokudou and how well it will do in the weeks to come. |
 |
| lol Rokka no Yuusha above Overlord suck it, fanboys |

| OVERLORD has gotten a 600,000 copy reprint run, passing 1 million copies in print. Hope it sells more next week with the volumes restocked <3 http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2015/08/04/original-overlord-series-passes-million-copies-in-print Sakana-san said: LITERATURE 11. *4,721 *42,538 Overlord Vol.5 13. *4,332 *29,179 Overlord Vol.4 15. *4,236 *45,299 Overlord Vol.3 16. *4,170 *27,477 Overlord Vol.6 19. *3,945 *40,547 Overlord Vol.7 Paulo27 said: lol Rokka no Yuusha above Overlord suck it, fanboys Come back when it breaks 1 million in print darling XD |

| Naruto Hiden still selling. |

| NGNL, rokka and overlord.. Good week I guess. It's unfortunate, that nor gate, nor rokka doesn't get attention they deserves. Well, I can't wait for SAO to come out at last. The translation will take for a while... |

LastChapter said: Obvious praises aside, I'm really glad to see Kenja no Mago get a really strong start. It's a top ranked web novel of Syosetu and it only just started this year, making it also one of the fastest series to receive a publication from its inception on the web. Elf Tensei too is deserving of praise for having a strong debut. The reborn in another world setting sounds really familiar to a LN that I read somewhere but can't remember. Though this one seems to be more on the comedy side. |

Paulo27 said: lol Rokka no Yuusha above Overlord suck it, fanboys Errr... The volume 6 just got out, that's hardly the same as having former volumes getting back in the top sales. RnY has yet to have that happening even for its 1st volume. There' s a good improvement as i said already. RnY sales were quite low without anime compared to some other adapted LN . When you already sells 30k+ per volume without anime, obviously the anime influence is easier to get as well ~ For volume 4 we had a 7k for 5 days then disappearing from the ranking, for volume 5 it didn't even appear in the ranking even the first week which means less than 5,8k (which was the cut off that time) in 3 days. With volume 6, we not only got 7k the first week, but the second week it somehow managed to get right inside the cut off and appear too, for a total of 12k. That's definitely an improvement. If seems like the other volumes are selling too. Volume 1 to 5 last week sold together more than 9k. Again, this is to put in comparison with the fact that the volume 1 to 5 together before the anime probably were around 50k (10k per volume I suppose, 7k the first week and then a little here and there, more for the volume 1 like any series). Adding 9k in one week to the 50k it had until now is definitely not negligible. Yes, compared to other novels it doesn't sell a lot. And I'm sure the publishing company expect more. It's still selling though. And the anime is a slow starter, so you can't expect the sales to start fast with that either. It may progress the following week. I'm particularly interested in the next two sales report in fact. It would be interesting is someone has the sales by series again that week, to see if we can get the number of sales for volume 1 to 5 as a whole even if there's not enough to have it per volume. |

ichii_1 said: Paulo27 said: Literature is for old stuff and old stuff is objectively bad #keeptrying That's classic literature, which is classic and not old. Rokka is riding on Overlord's tailcoat #PleaseStop Putting that stupid fan war aside, Overlord's publishing label is the same as several series I own, which are clearly classified as Light Novel ( KADOKAWA/エンターブレイン ). This includes Youjo Senki, a series from which I just finished reading volume 4 where in the postscript the author was again calling his series a light novel. So I don't know what kind of place you got the information that this label wasn't publishing light novels, but that looks quite wrong. And since the only difference between light novel and novel in japan is the publishing label under which it's published (no difference in content), that's quite stupid to try getting proud of this anyway ImO. |

| Good to see NGNL in the top. I hope they make 2nd season for the anime |

| NT13 is a major disappointment. But that's to be somehow expected with how NT12 went. It'll take another Othinus Arc to get this series back on track. |
julyan said: NT13 is a major disappointment. But that's to be somehow expected with how NT12 went. It'll take another Othinus Arc to get this series back on track. Actually it would probably take a esper arc with accelerator and/or Hamazura as the main MC(s) to get it back to proper quality, but looks like the auhor want to continue with all those uninteresting super-powerful-and-almighty-but-still-lose-quickly-magicians. /rant ichii_1 said: Zefyris said: So I don't know what kind of place you got the information that this label wasn't publishing light novels, but that looks quite wrong.

NT12 didn't become successful (along with so many other things) because Touma took a backseat despite how deeply involved he is (supposedly) into what's happening in that arc. I doubt that not focusing on him again would be wise. |

| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| So there's a drop of sales for volume 1-5 of RnY compared to last week, rather than the improvement I was hoping for. It was 9700 it's now 8300. Looks like there's little hope to see even the volume 1 appear just one week in the bunko ranking at this rate. starting from next week RnY's series sales won't have volume 6 boosting it so we won't even have the stats any more. :( |

| Hmmm.no Hakomari,Japan has a very good taste |
| Rance X is A GOAT. |
barthos said: Hmmm.no Hakomari,Japan has a very good taste ...What? You do know that it's almost 2 months since the last volume of Hakomari came out, right? A volume staying in the weekly rankings for two months on the trot is a very rare event indeed. Not that it ranked in its release week either |

| Way to go NGNL! |
