| Oh wow. DanMachi is selling good. |
| Lots of Overlord, as usual. Glad to see Okobore Hime to Entaku no Kishi on the list though. This series needs more recognition. |
 |
| Not surprised by the still-overwhelming presence of Overlord. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| So what LN got the largest anime boost this year, Danmachi or Overlord? |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
| *2. 35,970 *35,970 Tokyo Ghoul [anime] I don't understand why this is listed in the LN section. Most of it is illustrations and drafts for the anime. |
| Glad to see DanMachi selling well! |
| Not surprised by DanMachi's sale figures... Glad to see that Hataraku Maou-sama! is still popular on the list. |
 |

| GOOD <3 Ahh such magnificence, always makes my day at bit more supreme :'( 20. *6,206 120,376 Overlord Vol.1 21. *6,087 100,307 Overlord Vol.3 24. *5,622 *71,197 Overlord Vol.4 25. *5,606 *83,561 Overlord Vol.5 28. *5,306 104,622 Overlord Vol.2 31. *5,189 *78,570 Overlord Vol.8 32. *5,101 *78,897 Overlord Vol.9 33. *5,083 *64,258 Overlord Vol.6 36. *4,734 *75,093 Overlord Vol.7 Also it topped 2 million in print about last week. so I think there will be a slight boost again next week XD If this doesn't get more anime sequels I'll make a petition to fire whoever in charge of the anime side :( |

| Isn't it touken ranbu not toushin ranbu? |
mayukachan said: Isn't it touken ranbu not toushin ranbu? It is touken ranbu, indeed. |
 |
| that world teacher.... i need moar of that |
 |
| This screams of a Maou-sama S2. Make it happen! |
| A bit surprised by DanMachi sales. Still as expected, though. |
| It's time you look inward and begin asking yourself the big question, "Who are you, and what do you want?" - Uncle Iroh |
| *2. 35,970 *35,970 Tokyo Ghoul [anime] OMG.... |
 |
| With the number of advertising it get I think Asterisk will be the one that get boosted the most next season. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Hataraku Maou-sama S2 is close now. but still far away. |
 |
| Maou-sama still hanging in there. Really nice to see that. |
| Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |
Agafin said: geralt said: Danmachi, in absolute terms.So what LN got the largest anime boost this year, Danmachi or Overlord? Danmachi had higher sales to start with so the boost gap isn't as big as it seems. And overlord is not done with it's boost either. |
|
| Yes Danmachi. Ainz sama banzai! |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
AP24 said: Why are Machine Doll and Asterisk on the list? They are supposed to be released on the 25th. They were released early on September 18 at some other retailers. The 2ch light novel thread highlights these cases for every single week, so it is definitely much more informative than the MAL thread. 2ch thread actually inserts the additional data such as the last week rank, actual release date and days since release on top of the available Oricon data. Example Rank / Last week rank / Weeks charted / Weekly sales / Cumulative sales / Release Date / Days since release / Title 44位 **位 *1回 **5,265部 **5,265部 15/09/18 ***3日 機巧少女は傷つかない 15 Facing "Machine doll I" *早売り2.5日(6.5日) 45位 **位 *1回 **5,210部 **5,210部 15/09/18 ***3日 学戦都市アスタリスク 09 悠日戦啾 *早売り2.5日(6.5日) |

ichii_1 said: Agafin said: Danmachi, in absolute terms. Danmachi had higher sales to start with so the boost gap isn't as big as it seems. And overlord is not done with it's boost either. Yeah I know, that's why I said "in absolute terms." If we have to look at it from a relative stance: Right before the anime: Danmachi vol. 1: 83,086 Overlord vol. 1: 36,725 After 11 weeks: Danmachi vol. 1: 182,894 Overlord vol. 1: 120,376 Danmachi incread by 120% (+99,808) while Overlord increased by 228% (+83,651) and it seems like Overlord will still be on the list this week and the week after while Danmachi totally left the list after this number of weeks. |
| wow...Danmachi and Overlord...nearly with the same RPG like theme.... only that Danmachi isn't so OP and more adventurous....and Overlord-->feel the power! |

Neither Toei nor Madhouse were involved in the production of Tokyo Ghoul. It's a Pierrot show. |

| So DanMachi and Overlord season 2 coming sooner or later?? I HOPE I'm glad these are selling really well, now if only Overlord would come out here I'd be happy to buy it all up as I am doing with everything else. Cool to see SAO selling a crap ton, wonder when we will hear news about season 3 of that.. Damn Rokka is so low, come on..This is such a good anime |
| How long before all LN's are about normal boy meets elite chick at a battle academy setting or dungeon crawling swords and sorcery with vague RPG elements or are we pretty much there already? |
Kaioshin_Sama said: How long before all LN's are about normal boy meets elite chick at a battle academy setting or dungeon crawling swords and sorcery with vague RPG elements or are we pretty much there already? It's the exact same reason for why stuff like one piece/bleach and others stuff like that usually sells more than most other stuff in the manga section. So the answer is "never". The highest selling books are supporting the industry and allow more "niche" novels to be published. |

Kaioshin_Sama said: How long before all LN's are about normal boy meets elite chick at a battle academy setting or dungeon crawling swords and sorcery with vague RPG elements or are we pretty much there already? Given that we're almost certainly talking <10% of light novels between those two things... ...and one glance at the rankings would show that the vast majority of things on there don't conform to either of those either... ...why are you even asking? |

Kaioshin_Sama said: Many of the translated LN and WN right now have either reincarnation setting or sent to a game world setting.
