 |
| NGNL appears to be doing well with its Vol.7 while Bakemono LN continues to sell like crazy! Also seeing quite a lot of Overlord volumes too. Good good. |
 |
| Been waiting way too damn long on NGNL v7, nice to see Japan was too Now we just need it translated too :s |
  |
| yay |

 |
| YAY NGNL and Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance are selling too well i hope for 2nd season!!! |
 |
*6. 22,502 *38,405 High School DxD Vol.20 Vol 19 had 72,936 ( http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1389545 ) so... Born heavily backfired LN sales... Now when they see how awful it was, I hope they will create remake that is actually follows novels. |
| Hopefully Rokka no Yuusha jumps up a bit in the upcoming weeks. Glad to see Bakemono no Ko doing quite well though. |
 |
| I tought that NGNL would sell more... Nothing like Oregairu and Mahouka in sales at this moment. Any LN that has anime currently airing has a huge boost like DanMachi neither. I hope Rokka no Yuusha gets a boost soon... |
 |
MAGiC_DREAMBOX said: It was at volume 6 when the anime started airing. Since then the series has been on hiatus up until now as far as the novels go. It's been almost a year and half between v6 and v7 in terms of release datesNo Game No Life is only at volume 7? Thought it was further along than that. |
| |
| yay, good to see that ngnl is still relevant in Japan dat overlord boost tho |
| :3 |
| *6. 22,502 *38,405 High School DxD Vol.20 *9. 12,841 *96,020 Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index Vol.13 Glad to see them in the list. |

MAGiC_DREAMBOX said: Well officially it's more like v7 just kept getting consistently delayed, but in practicality it was more or less on hiatusHaXXspetten said: It was at volume 6 when the anime started airing.

It's been almost a year and half between v6 and v7 in terms of release dates Ah right, thanks for clearing that up as I wasn't aware of a hiatus. |

| Is Overlord's boost bigger than Danmachi's? |

No Game No Life takes this week's top, after more than a year since the previous LN release. On the other hand, while it isn't off to a blazing start, Rokka no Yūsha's numbers are still at an acceptable level (now, if it was below 5,000...). Since there aren't any news on other LN, I'm guessing that this will be the only LN to be release in the same timeframe as the anime's airing, but maybe it will get a nice boost overall later on. |
 |
| Is 7000 a low number in LN sales? I'm not really familiar with this stuff and I'm interested in Rokka. |

*7,240 **7,240 Rokka no Yuusha Vol.6 please, stop hurting me... oh well, at least it ranked. |

LastChapter said: Do we even know how well they are doing? I thought you were talking about the quality of the adaptations, move along.Paulo27 said: Popularity and/or quality of the anime adaption can affect the sales of the light novels.Does not make sense. |

| Overlord is getting an impressive boost |
 |
| RnY volume 4 had 5 days in its first week and did 7.3k. RnY volume 5 had 3 days last time to rank in the first week and didn't manage (cut of was at 5,8k so it did less than that in 3 days). RnY volume 6 had 3 days to rank and did 7.2k There is a small boost. As I said before, i'm expecting any boost before episode 4 anyway, at best. Since RnY volume 6 was published right before episode 4, I'm not surprised that it doesn't benefit for any strong advantage from the anime. Now will it get some or not at one point... Dunno. It depends on the otaku watching late night anime. Who clearly are the kind to favour more Overlord airing right after RnY than RnY itself ImO~. |
 |
| Good comeback for Blade Dance. I hope it at least reach 50k before dropped from the list. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
Paulo27 said: Snow said: You tried, that's what counts.20. *7,240 **7,240 Rokka no Yuusha Vol.6 A shame, really. But now since all 7 braves have met, I can expect the juicy parts of volume one to be adapted. I admit it was slow, but from now on its nothing but hype. |
"Hi!" |
| So is NT13 will be the first NT volume in a while that can't even reach 100k sales ? Index 3, you can come out by now. Still sad by Rokka's low sales. On the other hand, Overlord managed to get some boosts despite how trashy the anime is. |
 |
| As usual the light novel sales section is dark and full of terrors. I dread the next adaptation. |
 |
| NT13 not reaching 6 digits is such a shock. Gosh. I'm so happy for Blade Dance. I didn't expect people would still buy it after a year of hiatus. NGNL S2 when? |
Snow said: 20. *7,240 **7,240 Rokka no Yuusha Vol.6 Why does this happen every time? smh Well the explosive parts of the anime have yet to happen so maybe we can see a boost afterwards. |

It is. To put you in perspective, there were 59 non-adult light novels released last week. Plus I think about 7 or 8 adult ones. Rokka no Yuusha's sales were 11th out of those 59 (in terms of release date it was on the median) and top of the seven Dash Ex Bunko releases. As for 70k, there are entire months that don't have a single series selling 70k on its first week. |
