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. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |

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... |

16. *6,472 **6,472 World Teacher Vol.1 That sounds really interesting to me. Would like to read it some day, hope someone picks it up. Eromanga sensei still going strong, anime announcement in the future I hope. Nourin getting much better sales this week, happy about that. 45. *5,210 **5,210 Gakusen Toshi Asterisk Vol.9 Expecting/hoping for a big boost when the anime starts airing. Counting down the days. |

*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. |

Not surprised by DanMachi's sale figures... Glad to see that Hataraku Maou-sama! is still popular on the list. |

The Blurays are expected to sell well too. Hope this makes Maruyama consider taking a break from his/her office work despite getting promoted(the boss must be an Overlord fan) and churn out more volumes. ichii_1 said: Go to Nippon and sue Badhouse for moral damages :PGOOD <3 If this doesn't get more anime sequels I'll make a petition to fire whoever in charge of the anime side :( |

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. |

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: geralt said: 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. 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. |

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. |
