Agreed on the Flying Witch sales though they may be too low for a sequel, given that the manga sales are also fairly low (volume 4 did rank but only 28K).

Now, Netflix doesn't care AT ALL about disc sales, they care about Netflix views. So if you want to see more Kuromukuro then subscribe to Netflix and watch both seasons, maybe even a few times. If everyone watched it elsewhere then Netflix doesn't know there is interest, doesn't see any views and will almost certainly NOT offer to fund a second season. Legal streaming is a BIG part of a show's income now, probably more than disc sales; this includes foreign streaming, in fact it may be higher for foreign streaming, especially in China. So if you want your show to continue, then support it with legal streaming at least (and buy discs and merch if you like too).



I heard that Netflix rate the series by the number of hours that it was watched.

Would be good if we had more data about how well an anime is watched on those streaming sites.
Yes, hours/minutes. Crunchyroll has admitted to doing the same so it isn't enough to just start all the episodes, you have to actually watch them start to end to give them the most money. Skipping the OP and ED actually costs them money! No lie... funny business. Would be great if they gave out that info but I'm sure that's considered a business secret.

JUST LOOK AT YURI ON ICE MUAH!!! HAHAHAHA, my fav are all in tops.


Agreed, good to see Yuri on Ice, Drifters, and Gundam up there. Wish 3-gatsu was higher though.


Same here, I agree about 3-gatsu but atleast the manga has a crazy sales, one of the reason for not caring about the anime sales.

I understand it is in somewhat the same situation as Dennou Coil and Log Horizon -- big NHK $$$ behind it, so they are much less worried about the otaku market.
Aniplex would certainly like it to sell more discs but the NHK couldn't care less. Hopefully everyone involved is paying all their taxes...

It's honestly a waste of time trying to explain it to the idiot who wrote gay boring anime is selling high, he's just just butthurt that Keijio is selling below average. Just let him be if he feels happy letting all his anger out by throwing shit on female oriented shows then fine, does he gain anything? Not really lol

Anyways you know I've never bought a Cd drama so I'm a bit lost in that department but if the studio that made the anime made the mistake of changing the cast then of course I would understand why the anime would be selling a bit less then others but 500 copies is ridiculous. I'm pretty bummed that even if the series did a lot of changes its selling terrible here I thought we would get a sequel just like Utapri and Hakouki did but guess I was wrong D: Wow I can't believe they changed Kae's seiyuu I absolutely love HanaKana she in my opinion fit Kae perfectly what were they thinking when they changed her /:

Same goes for the manga, been so behind with it but I keep hearing from people who've read it that the anime is a bit better? Hmmm I would definitely be upset if I knew as a manga reader that they were rushing the anime but I don't believe it's all bad the comedy is what I think saves the anime. I don't really mind animation never had a problem with that I'm all for new and old animation ^^

You know what I just realize this is the second reverse harem adapted from a manga, first it was Ouran Highschool host club right? Sorry for being so random but I would've prefered if either Barajou no kiss or S•L•K were adpated they deserve it more D: Anyways I can totally understand why Japan viewers who follow the manga wouldn't want to buy the discs but I still can't help to love the anime and hope for it to sell a bit more in the future.

Now I'm curious WHY ISN'T THE GOD OF ALL REVERSE HAREMS, UTA NO PRI SAMA ON THE EARLY ESTIMATES?


@hpulley Alrighty thanks for the info you've been very helpful my friend, even if the sales are terrible for now I won't lost hope that it will somehow manage to sell around 3k after its done airing !!


Girls, don't get so worked up over that guy, or waste your time on him. I understand it can get really infuriating to have to deal with people like him, but I just assume he's homophobic, like many other guys on MAL seem to be. I don't watch anime series that appeal to females, because they don't appeal to me, but I don't get angry over anime aimed at females selling well. I think it's a good thing, that there's more anime out there that appeals to females, but I think it is too extreme what marx-chan was suggesting. Yes, there needs to be more of a balance so that female fans can also enjoy the seasonal anime, but to oppress male fans just because of one rotten egg is not the way to go.

As for the question from @-Janet, UtaPri Season 4 is not solicited on Amazon JP, so there's no estimate available from Amazon Stalker. Although, even if it gets solicited on Amazon JP, it'll most likely be underestimated anyway due to strong performance at Animate.


I do apologize for my words your absolutely right about that but I can't help to hate his guts whenever I see him on any forums. It's either him whining like a little bitch about how female oriented anime is taking over the industry or insulting yaoi stuff it's pissing me off very much like wtf no female on here bitches about how much harem is made every season. Is he that stupid that he hasn't realize how much LN harem Novels are adapted into anime? :/ HE NEEDS TO LEARN TO SHUT HIS MOUTH AND RESPECT ANIME THAT'S TARGETED FOR US FEMALES. Anyways again I apologize I know not every guy on here is like him D:

Ahh and thanks for answering my question regarding Utapri, hoping it's able to save this fall season, I thought either Watashi or Macross Delta would save this year but I underestimated both sadly, still have a little hope either sell more as time goes.

@Hpulley You know what I don't understand Shojo anime use to sell fantastic back in the early 2000's through 2010 but for some weird reason it started going downhill. As of today I'm still wondering what happen to shojo anime that had over 26-50 episodes?

26 episodes, a.k.a, 2 cours anime in general come less and less. About shojo series around 50 and even more episodes, most of the companies that were doing them stopped those doing or only focused in 1 timeslot for them and have a super popular Shoujo anime long-running. Example: Precure, Pripara and Aikatsu. They are all Shoujo series.
