top 10 dominated by harems WHEW suck it manga light novels are going to rule the anime industry glad to see this though *8. 15,352 *15,352 Hai to Gensou no Grimgar Vol.8 |
*8. 15,352 *15,352 Hai to Gensou no Grimgar Vol.8 Grimgar with 15k pretty good its within the range i expected. Volume 1 had less than 10k before the anime so it sold less than 10k in a time frame of 2 years while the Latest volume did 15k in 3 days. Wonder if next week it will be in this list. 13. *9,052 **9,052 Gaikotsu Kishi-sama, Tadaima Isekai e Odekakechuu Vol.3 Didn't expect this. *7. 15,655 *15,655 Gakusen Toshi Asterisk Vol.10 Looking pretty good too. 26. *6,978 **6,978 Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu Vol.8 Not as hot wonder how it will fare after the anime Modified by harkan, Mar 30, 2016 1:56 PM |
Top 10 is a harem list lol. Kinda surprised to see Re:zero low though, heard only good things abt it. MT is there in top20, nice. |
Looks Like Gate Got a bit of a Last amount of Boosts just when the Anime finished. Except those are for the Gaiden series which are stories that take palce after the orginal Gate Finished. Despite the bit of rushing and cutting scenes in the second cour it was still a good adaptation so hoping for another season one day. Konosuba is still selling...Best stand alone title of the winter and the LN boost was the biggest out of all the LN adaptations.... You guys should read it..its is a fun read. It has been nearly a year since the last volume for DXD came out and while still selling strong..it looks like that long waitng period is taking its toll as the sales have gone down quite a bit. Maybe another season to help boost it agian might be nice. |
Fab to see Date A Live, Vanadis and DxD as the top 3, all selling very well. Also wasn't aware there was a new Gundam Unicorn volume out, will be interesting to see what it contains as the series ended well. Some KonoSuba volumes still hanging around post anime is good to see.Expecting them to drop off in the next couple of weeks. Really hope Imouto sae Ireba Ii gets an anime someday, sounds like just my type of series. Already has fantastic sales though. |

I almost caught up to the Madan no Ou to Vanadis series now. Got a feeling that Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu will get more popular this year.  |
I hope Madan no Ou to Vanadis get 2nd season, and date a live get 3rd season  |
all i need to see is KonoSuba XD but i'm suprised Date A Live took the first place XD i'm not suprised at the fact that KonoSuba is not filling the place anymore.... obvious......i wonder if KonoSuba will that the first place if Vol 9 is out.... Edit: i can see Grimgar season 2 a little bit.... Date A Live season 3 ? is it possible ??? i hope so :D  |
Glad to see that Date A Live, DxD and Madan no Vanadis are doing well (and some other series) well. I hope we get a 4th season of DxD |

Nice list. More harems the better. Reading about half of this list & the others on my plan to read list. Date A Live (another season would be nice) Madan no Ou to Vanadis (would like a 2nd season) Gakusen Toshi Asterisk (watching the 2nd season this spring season) Modified by K-Anime, Mar 30, 2016 3:06 PM |

With how much they're investing in this, it better get a huge boost. 26. *6,978 **6,978 Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu Vol.8  |

Glad to see Onii-sama, Issei-senpai and Mr.Princess doing well.  |
Mushoku Tensei :D  |
Date A Live and High School DxD can still get more seasons because their LN are still selling well and their anime BD/DVD sold well. Madan won't get another season because the LN sales before and after the anime are pretty much almost the same and the anime BD/DVD sales were just around 3k per volume average. |
Mushoku Tensei <3. Really hope that gets an adaptation soon. Hopefully Re:Zero gets a boost from the anime this season. Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |

But still, I see it as somewhat of a success that Re:Zero manages to be in this ranking where the majority of the light novels have already one or several anime adaptation ( advertisement ). |

Well considering that Re:Zero isn't really a moe blob/full harem LN and isn't centered in HS, it's doing pretty well with not much publicity. Big Order (TV):great anime or greatest anime? |

WhiteFlamee said: *1. 27,160 *45,680 Date A Live Vol.14 YES!!!!!!!! Highschool DXD is ending soon i think The final arc starts next but it won't end soon. He said he wanted to make at least 1 more volume per girl. The final arc will probably be the longest yet and the possibilities of prequels and sequels are there as well (SlashDog continuation, Sirzechs prequel interest that he mentioned in one of the afterwords I think, EX continuation with Issei's children as the main characters, etc). |
Meanwhile I am still waiting for the English release of the Sword Art Online Progressive Volume 04 and Sword Art Online 07 Novels..  |
Date a Live going strong~ Also, really glad to see Grimgar up there in the top 10.   |

Already has fantastic sales though. honestly konosuba didn't even drop that much, it's just that this week is really, really stacked with everything else. Last week KonoSuba was 49.5k total, this week it's 46.9k. Sure that's a drop and it's going to keep going down like that (until S2 hits!) but the drop is pretty slow and stable. It just got spammed out of the top-X lists by all those high-profile first-week or 2nd-week sales in the top. It still pretty much sold the same by itself |
Deym the Konosuba creators are now swimming in money atm  |
Date A Live is still strong as ever. Glad they make it on top this week. Still there's no season 3 announcement :3 I want to see Origami arc animated. KonoSuba's volume 4-8 is no longer in sight. Well I guess that's to be expected. People need to read volume 1-3 first, so I'm giving them time... Since Grimgar and Asterisk can sell highly around 15k, what do you guys think KonoSuba volume 9 will sell? Since it's also bundled with the OVA, I can see it be around 20k. Also the Vol.9 bundled OVA is on #1 best seller on the books category in Amazon.co.jp   |
Mushoku Tensei vol 10 been out since march 25. From then to mar 27 it had already reached nearly 10,000 in cumulative sales. It's not a sudden jump from last volume sale, but it has certainly increased to a significant amount. I'm very glad the author is getting the financial support from his masterpiece, hopefully the rise in numbers will encourage him to start on his sequel of MT webnovel soon huhuhuhu. |

If it sold tomorrow I'd say easily 40-45k in week 1 standalone without the OVA, but yeah the long time inbetween makes it kinda hard to guess. You could have a PV/date announced for season2 in the same week which could influence the sales, maybe it drops more than people expect if there's silence about it until june, what's the effect of the OVA etc |
Funny to see some members are shock at the results of Gakusen Toshiki Asterisk. Considering the anime adaption may be mediocre and constantly bashed by digibro making 10+ videos to brainwash other fans. The light novels are actually pretty good when i read it after watching the anime. |
I think Netoge will probably be the LN to get the biggest boost in Spring. |
