Unless of course this is a kidding post in which case....the rest of this is pretty unnecessary XD. Could be related to the add-ins for this volume not being as appealing to 1k. "Radiant Force" and "Just Loving X-Edge" have a bit more punch to them than just the not huge OST. I'd expect it to stay solid for the third volume with "BAYONET CHARGE" and "Radiant Force (Ignite)" in the next one. Even if they slip a bit per volume it should still remain a really darn good seller by volume 6. |
| Man I really need to get around to watching Symphogear, those are some impressive sales. I hear that it gets a hell lot better around the second season. Hoping that this Akito movie series is at least as good as Code Geass was. I hope it confirms that *Code Geass ending spoiler* Yooo Overlord is putting out some impressive numbers for its second volume. I guess it's safe to say that it would stabilize around that numbers. Impressive job. Hopefully people would stop with the "Japan don't like my boy Madhouse" myth. Also, Ainz is not cardboard MC, people who say that probably don't know what they are talking about. Non Non Biyori is edging non-profitable. ): Why Japan, why.. ): Ushio to Tora from what I've heard is apparently a good shounen.. the sales is good compared to your typical long runner like the big 3, but I am not sure about shorter running shounen.. Same as Gintama.. ): And yeah.. Gakkou Gurashi.. ): Hoping that season 2 would come, but.. the chance of getting one is slim.. ): Akagami no Shirayuki is also selling pretty meh.. the shoujo anime curse..!! At least the manga sales got boosted and it got an anime sequel, so it's all good. Oh yea, the estimation for Osomatsu-san is impressive, it's almost 20k.. |

Now, the third volume didn't have lottery ticket, which is what I fear. |

They don't, or at least their impression of the MC is what they got from the anime. Those of us that have been following the LN know that couldn't be further from the truth. Anyway it's not just the MC that makes Overlord a fun read; it's all about the supporting cast. Varied and interesting, both in character and design. If Madhouse gets payed to do another season, I hope they put more effort into it. The first season wasn't terrible but it could have been much better. They needed a bigger budget. |

They might have better screen time in the LN, I wouldn't know. I know through the episode discussion thread that Albedo has a lot more depth in the LN, in which the anime couldn't portray as well, which is a real shame. I don't know about the others, but the anime's main selling point for me was Ainz. P.S. I thought the animation was fine. |

Mahouka being the only exception I can think of This is based on Amazon orders and it's usually correct if most people buy from Amazon. But it looks like a lot of people are buying Rakudai BD/DVD from other stores because they will get an extra gift (authographs from main cast) if buying from selected stores. Also weren't the numbers rising since EP4?

| Bias is just another throw away meaningless word that casuals like to use to make their opinions sound more intelligent. Other phrases you might like: ''objectively good/bad'' ''it's style over substance'' If you don't understand that we all have opinions (or a bias, whatever floats your boat) which are all subjective and based on our taste and personality, discussion isn't possible. Also, please tell me about those 'heartfelt phrases' and does he tell them before or after relying on another case of deus ex machina item/spell to win? P.S. lol shop items... how is it even possible to take that BS with a serious face? About your ''sarcasm'' Dude, sarcasm would only work IF i claimed to be non-biased. I will make a simplified version of your sarcasm, maybe you will understand anything after that. Correct sarcasm: ME: I'm an objective anime critic (followed by subjective opinion) YOU: Wow, you're such an unbiased critic! (you see- statement followed by SUPPOSED agreement) Your sarcasm: Me: nothing about bias You: wow, you're such unbiased critic! (So? I never claimed otherwise.) Sarcasm is reactional, and you just reacted to absolutely nothing, while assuming statements from me which I never actually made. |

Simplo said: "Forgotten for the rest of the series"That 'facade' thing is used for like 3 or 4 one line jokes, and then forgotten for the rest of the series. Such depth, very drama, wow. You do realize that Overlord is not a 13-episodes completed story, right? He has to act his part out in order to instill fear and conquer his world, to learn of the unknown, etc. "one line joke" Either you don't know what a joke is, or you're trying to be funny. "Such depth, very drama, wow." I'd appreciate if you don't throw your memes onto me. Nobody has ever said that Overlord has a lot of layers of depth to it, it doesn't mean that it's flat as cardboard tho. I can see that Overlord is not your thing, and how you would just generalize everything that has harem/ecchi/MMORPG element/OP mc/moe, and just about every generic all-season hate. There is no discussion to be made in the first place (which I don't think is what you're seeking for), since you're already biased to one side. |

I've been told by a forum user before (not going to name names but they've posted in this thread already) that my opinion doesn't matter because I've never spent money on overpriced R2 Blu-Rays and just maintain a Crunchyroll and Netflix account. Like cool I'm supposed to buy something I can't even really play on a regular player that costs way too much money and may not even come with subtitles or anything I say is completely irrelevant so yeah really might as well delete the forums if that's the case and that's what it takes for sure. The irony is that I'm regularly the one that gets called an elitist these days yet I'd never argue for something like that which is highly so. Fullmetal89 said: Overlord still doing pretty well ! Season 2 hype (probably not because Madhouse). Surprised the Code Geass movies are doing so well. I've only watched the first one and I liked it. Hopefully this means more from the franchise in the future. It already did well enough to get an expansion from 4 to 5 parts. |

They are the ones with a proposal to the publisher, and gets the license. Danmachi and Overlord has bad adaptations. Madhouse not does second seasons five years ago.  |

Vol.6 sold 2,531 in the first week. So how is 2,679 low for Noragami? By the way, I used the lowest selling volume because that's an indication of how many people stuck around to buy the whole series, and the least likely to have any sales boosting bonuses. ○ノラガミ 【全6巻】 巻数 初動 累計 発売日 BD(DVD) BD(DVD) 01巻 2,784(3,029) 3,168(3,771) 14.03.26 ※合計 6,939枚 02巻 2,379(2,483) 2,709(2,917) 14.04.09 ※合計 5,626枚 03巻 1,557(1,250) 1,938(1,680) 14.05.09 ※合計 3,618枚 04巻 1,633(1,322) *,***(*,***) 14.06.11 ※合計 2,955枚 05巻 1,476(1,120) 1,736(*,***) 14.07.09 ※合計 2,856枚 06巻 1,462(1,069) 1,735(*,***) 14.08.13 ※合計 2,804枚 |
