Yuuki Yuuna surely is a dark horse, surely didn't expect it to be one of the few originals who would go past the 10k line this year

Shirobako should keep it for a third week since it will only properly re-stock tomorrow, the question is, how much will the boost be? YuYuYu's boost was big, but Shirobako's numbers are a bit more discrete

Also, it will not be added to the first volume ranking because Vol.4 includes Episodes 11 to 14 (both seasons).

Sad to see a mediocre anime like Yuuki Yuuna and Amagi Brilliant Park selling that high.

But I'm happy for Cross Ange and Mahouka. I hope Mahouka get 2nd season. As for Fate/kaleid, I think it deserve way more than that. I thought fate series anime were popular in japan.

Love Live selling good as usual.

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.

I also prefer Agk over Yuuki Yuuna. Oh well,Japan have their own different opinion.

Not as prominently as the Top selling ones.

YuYuYu sold 9K, that's nice, I bet the ending led to much better sales as it's the ending of the year. Cross Ange selling is not surprising seeing the predictions and controversy surrounding it and it got way better near the second half.

It really depends on where you cut the line between cute and pretty. If you mean cute as in Moe, this season is probably going to end with PP2, Bahamut, UBW and Cross Ange on its top five and I don't consider those to be "cute" shows.

What I did find funny however is how female led the current Fall top 5 is. Out of the 5 top sellers 4 have female MCs and the one with a male MC (Amagi) is also arguably heavily focused on the actions of the girls.

Not really....
Only about 20%-30% of 119 anime that sells 10,000+ discs feature cute girls
Well, that also depends on your definition of cute girls

I'd still rather have cute girls in the top spots than have harem-ecchi LN adapatations there.

Is BiBi the most popular unit in Love Live, or is the song just the best received from this batch of singles?


They are the most popular unit by far, and always had the best songs. Yoshino Nanjo and Pile are two of the best singers in the group, then Sora Tokui voices the fan favorite Nico.

And I would rather have harem-echii LN adaptations, than Emo stories like AgK. And thanks god, Japan is not that stupid to bring them on tops too often. ^^

Mushishi Zoku Shou pt 2 isn't anywhere on the sales or not yet released lists?

Mushishi Zoku Shou 2nd Season, which starts including from Zoku Shou Vol.4, will release on January 28, 2015.
http://www.mushishi-anime.com/products/04.html

Also, it will not be added to the first volume ranking because Vol.4 includes Episodes 11 to 14 (both seasons).

ah ok, thanks for the reply

It would seem plausible. I mean the unit has Maki in it who is kind of the all around most popular character and Eli and Nico who are pretty popular too.

I see. I always got the vibe that Nozomi and Kotori were some of the most popular girls, lol (but I guess they are both in different units).

ooh YuYuYu up there, nice nice :D wasn't quite expecting it though
"In the past few months since we met, I've shared many memories with Nagato. Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH

Because Japan loves generic moeblobs for some stupid reason.
