Brah have you seen the Manga sales for Tokyo Ghoul which sells about 900K per Vol. plus the merchandise is selling like hotcakes. Tokyo Ghoul is much popular in Japan than the west so I don't know what your talking about. Also the reason the BD didn't sell that much was because the anime was shit and to buyers that wouldn't be a good incentive to buy especially when anime is expensive. So yeah your really underestimating Tokyo Ghoul's popularity.

We're talking about anime sales here. I don't even know how much a manga costs, much less follow the sales.


You should follow manga/LN sales if you want to know how big the title is.

Parasyte,Tokyo Ghoul,Food Wars are very mainstream title comparable to Naruto,Bleach,Fairly tale.Fafner is very popular among anime fans but nothing comparable to those mainstream popular series.
I mean you can expect normal youth in Japan know parasyte,Tokyo ghoul or Food Wars just like naruto or bleach but it will be hard to find people who know fafner.

Manga is much much cheaper in Japan than anime, so you'd expect a larger proportion of school-aged fans being able to afford to buy those rather than one volume of an anime. Just check Amazon JP, and you should be able to see what the price is for a manga volume (which includes the 8% sales tax already).
