| @kuuderes_shadow Hi :) One thing I can not understand, DanMachi is now really as popular as Mahouka with SAO? Or was there a huge push recently that I do not know about? -Mahesvara said: Man Mahouka's next few volumes have beautiful covers. Kana Ishida really outdone herself. Well, judging from the news, the series should be over pretty soon, so now it's working with Sato-sensei in full power. |

Well, I do not even know what to think about, as in a new volume (according to rumors) events develop with staggering speed. However, Sato is not the first time saying that "the end is coming". |

RobertBobert said: @kuuderes_shadow Hi :) One thing I can not understand, DanMachi is now really as popular as Mahouka with SAO? Or was there a huge push recently that I do not know about? DanMachi and Mahouka do seem to be very gradually moving together, but the main reason why they'd be getting closer in a hypothetical rank of bestselling series is as a result of other things moving eg. Monogatari dropping below DanMachi and Overlord climbing above Mahouka. SAO is quite a way above them both. The Sword Oratoria anime did give a boost to the original DanMachi, though, and the series hasn't had many volumes out since then. The one that is really shooting up in sales, though, is TenSura. I'd actually say that's actually the series most likely to catch up to SAO, what with the anime coming out this autumn and its rapid rate of sales growth (I haven't actually checked this but I think it is now the series with the highest pre-anime sales since Mahouka). |

Tensei shitara Slime Datta Ken ? Well, the synopsis did not impress me much, but I did not hear anything about this novel and did not read it, so I can not say anything. |

RobertBobert said: Satou did say volume 16 was the halfway point, so I could see it going till around vol 30 or so, but we'll see.-Mahesvara said: Well it'll finish once third year is over at least, and right now there only about a third of the way into their third year in the current story arc.

I believe they only sold more in 2016 and Mahouka sells better per volume too. |

| @-Mahesvara Well, then I was right that there will be at least 3-4 volumes and pair of arcs. But the only thing that upsets me is that the anime, even with the film, could not show the entire first year. |

| *1. 52,275 *52,275 Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei Vol.24 Nice to see this. |
braveofeden said: Well it seems that an irregular managed to take the top spot... (Also I didn't know a new volume of Death March came out). Irregular are heading towards climax, Meanwhile Death March hit badly by the anime adaptation. Well not that i care, isekai with such execution was meant to be doomed to begin with. |
| That Mahouka cover is amazing <3 |

Overlord sold 4.8kk overall and TenSura just announced a 4.5kk. Source: http://ln-news.com/page-48826/ |

| Guys Isn't that a good chance for a second season of mahouka ??? |

-Mahesvara said: @Kuuderes_shadow did Overlord really surpass Mahouka? I believe they only sold more in 2016 and Mahouka sells better per volume too. I was talking on a volume basis - Mahouka sells more in total because it has volumes coming out faster. Mahouka 23 sold 158555 in 39 days, Overlord 12 had sold 165064 after 37 days. Doubtless this second anime for Overlord will have widened the gap. |

-Mahesvara said: Kja95 said: Not Necessarily, Mahouka always sells goodGuys Isn't that a good chance for a second season of mahouka ??? I haven't lost hope yet ... Have you ever thought of a third season of tokyo ghoul after what they have done with route A !!!!!! And Dan machi recently received a second season too I don't see a reason why there won't be another season of mahouka... It doesn't make sense actually.... Even index is getting a sequel after so many years... |
Xaelath said: Meanwhile Death March hit badly by the anime adaptation. Care to elaborate? The two previous volumes sold close to 28K before dropping from the rankings after 2 weeks. I think it'd be safe to say this one will reach those numbers on next week's ranking and fall off like its predecessors. I don't see how it got "hit badly" by the anime... |

Well based on its standard, 28k seems like a boost. Meanwhile to be popular shit you'll need about 40k to 50k copies. And the anime adaptation is just mediocre at best. "It's not your typical Isekai". Right. |

Even index is getting a sequel after so many years... Nah leave it, You shouldn't put hope for something that already heading towards climax, Tokyo ghoul announced when it's still on going before the recent climax announcements. Danmachi is still on going, it's a good reason why they avoid 2nd season due the lacks of source material during it was airing, you can't expect them to adapt the more when the source and adaptation are too close to each other, and the reason are simple. Advertising. But again they're held by a better and promising studio + producer. Even it happens.. that probably the last of it to boost the final arc lol. |
| Nice to see Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyousoukyoku on the top. I like that series. |

You want to say that there is no need for them to make another season because the light novel is selling well itself and in its climax right ??? |

You want to say that there is no need for them to make another season because the light novel is selling well itself and in its climax right ??? Yeah that's th simplified version. Anime industry have always been like that. Unless it's very very popular. LN adaptation tends to have only 1 adaptation. Manga otherwise have more like Tokyo Ghoul you mentioned, Manga have more revenue and gains compared boosting LN sales. Which is why some producers prefer risking newers isekai trends than the old anime. Overlord case are abnormal though it was pretty popular and still far from conclusion. While researching the anime industry information and discussion last year it has come to conclusion the adaptation mostly will still depends on BD/DVD sale,and less likely to depends on source material sale especially on LN case, once it less likely to meet their expectations, hitting on 2nd season will be less than 1% within years let alone a full adaptation. Some notable producers and studio will likely to have more adaptation despite the avg sales or mediocre reception (majority of J.C staff anime since they adapt 3-4 anime each season, KyoAni which almost never be bothered by any reception). If you noticed it on monthly or weekly sale , some old adapted anime rarely shows up there. Sure Mahouka was popular but it was still affected by Movie boost. I would like to see another season but Thinking it would end as a cliffhangers.. nah fk it. |

There's manga adaptation from vol 1 to vol 15 or 16, the anime ended at vol 7 and they skipped vol 5 (the summer holiday arc) here's the order the manga is still ongoing, I don't know about how many of them have been translated, you do the work if you're invested. |
