| *25,905 Hai to Gensou no Grimgar Vol.9 (3 days + 1 week) *24,514 Hai to Gensou no Grimgar Vol.10 (2 days + 1 week) Volume 9 didn't rank again and the cut-off was 4,286. Doubt volume 10 will rank again unless cut-off is somehow really low, sales seems more or less stable though. Also wondering what's getting a boost this season. Last season it was basically just Konosuba and Youjo Senki and the former already had its boost before, the latter kinda fell off towards the last weeks didn't it though. Here's hoping SukaSuka gets its share. 10 LN adaptations is a lot. |

| Glad to see Re:Zero still in the top place. The wait for Yen Press to release Vol.9 is killin me. |
 |
| Kimi no Na wa stopped ranking already. It's been a good and long run. RIP Hopefully it broke some records when it was in rank. |

| Siigh. If not for Grimgar which is kind of decent, the top 10 is filled with pretty much just trash. Not surprising but still disappointing. Rezero is set to be next SAO :/ |

Rezero is set to be next SAO :/ How many of them have you read? Tried a few. Grimgar is average. Date A Live and the mecha otaku one are absolute shlock. Tried reading REZero but gave up when I realized its just as awful as the anime(even though it fixed up some plotholes when compared to anime). The fact that like 99% of that list is isekai nonsense with nearly identical synopsis tells the rest of the story and similar cover art. Like I said, its not surprising stuff like that sells, but still having anything decent or good in top 10 would not hurt |

| Glad Re:Zero is selling well, hoping for a new season soon ^^. |

Like I said, its not surprising stuff like that sells, but still having anything decent or good in top 10 would not hurt So three things on the list that you didnt like. Fair enough. Re:Zero is a long way from being the "next SAO" though. The proportion of that list that is isekai is as close to 50% as possible, and there are some very different synopses there. From Hisshou Dungeon Unei Houhou, to Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear, to Seirei Gensouki. In fact the only one with a synopsis that sounds bland and average to me is Grimgar's*... Which just goes to show how silly it is to just look at the synopsis of a series. *and possibly Kakushi Skill de Isekai Musou's, but to nowhere near the same extent as Grimgar's does. |

| Glad to see Re:Zero still first. Well, it's volume 12 after all, it was expected considering what's happening right now in the novel |
 |
| Noo that cancer named Re:Zero is spreading. |
 |
| Rezero woop woop Release those fucking novels faster so we (might) get a new season quicker! |
| Youjo Senki LN seem not good? The anime is fine but the boost is worse than Konosuba s2 |
IrisBestGirl said: Youjo Senki LN seem not good? The anime is fine but the boost is worse than Konosuba s2 Youjo Senki was doing better in the earlier weeks, although very heavily skewed towards the first volume or two. Plus you've got to bear in mind that KonoSuba was still seeing the aftereffects of the first season's boost when the second one came along, so you'd expect it to return to a higher base than Youjo Senki after the new boost wears off, unless Youjo Senki took off in the same way (which is very unusual). |

My favorite LN, you may like it |
