Swagernator said: *1. 5,026 **5,026 Violet Evergarden Vol.2 What is wrong with you Nippon, Jesus. Was it that bad? I mean some episodes is quite great really. It was overhyped and praised though. Antagonized said: Ofuu! Oh why Citrus? Tbh 1k sales could be considered low. And the anime was alright but still bad technically. |
edge13 said: RobertBobert said: And so, Darling proved to be more successful than Violet How so?they sold around the same amount with v.1 of VEG abit more. Nevertheless, the second volume has earned less and I do not see actual discussions about this show. Although there may be a last one due to different length of broadcast... |

Yeah, I don't really follow disc sales at all but I don't think there's any best selling shoujo-ai series at all, maybe Yuru Yuri? Feelsbadman The show was so-so it's alright, maybe that upcoming show in fall that everyone's hyping about. |
|
| @Antagonized If to compare with the "official" shoujo ai, then Yuru Yuri is nothing more than a comic slice of life with an overabundance of gay jokes. However, Doga Kobo coped quite well with its adaptation. |

Although there may be a last one due to different length of broadcast... It's normal for subsequent vols not sold as much as the first, It's nothing to be concerned with as long as theres no big gaps inbetween. &Ditf would probably follow that normal pattern too. Oh, I won't argue. In any case, I still do not know how Darling will end, but I expected that Violet will earn at least 7-8 ka. |

Except Yuru Yuri is shoujo-ai through and through In that and the problem is that there yuri no more than in many especially yuri-ish manga from Manga Time Kirara. Not to mention that many yuri beit shows from Trigger are more yuri than Yuru. @Cybertron Hmm, thank you for the information. I know that Girls & Panzer has more fanservice in different spin-offs in manga, but it always seemed to me that this show was too serious to be more popular than Love Live. |

| yorimoi putting violet everboring cucks in place |
 I don't watch as much anime as before... |
| These are approiate numbers for VEG, the PV was misleading and the anime was poorly paced with episodic anime originals. |

Japan can be serious too sometimes :D I mean just look at each time a hunter x hunter volumes comes out of hiatus, because of the story and (maybe collection value or something) Why even some of my favourite games like the legend of heroes trials series are popular and serious (90% of the time anyway) about the story Well, that's good news. I used to think that only the idols or mobage adaptations had the highest sales. |

RobertBobert said: And so, Darling proved to be more successful than Violet, and Citrus, despite all the hype, sold half the disks than the harem with loli. Oh, I still need to think it over. Violet Evergarden sold 6.9K for volume 1. Darli-fra sold 6.4K for volume 1. Also, VE is said to be the highest paid streamed anime till date. KyoAni already made a lot of profit by selling the streaming right. Besides, they have a model based on salary and not commission unlike other studios, so while it wouldn't change how much the animators got based on the streaming money, as a production studio, they earned quite a lot of money. VE is also OWNED by KyoAni so their profit through disc sales would be the same as any original anime like darli-fra. If we consider that two studios were involved in the production of darli-fra AND the amount of promotional investment they had (KyoAni's promotional investment were covered by Netflix as well) their return is not that great. VE is more watched and better rated than Darli-fra in Japan and in the west. Darli-fra has more negative opinion than positive ones. Those are also facts. |

| @shanimebib So, Violet Evergarden can be called a completely successful original anime? shanimebib said: VE is more watched and better rated than Darli-fra in Japan and in the west. Darli-fra has more negative opinion than positive ones. Those are also facts. And it is possible from this place more in detail? |

RafaelCLP said: Wow, sales are so low for all of them! Selling physical copies is definitely not how they make money... Well, i do agree with you. Japan should better rely on Digital sales for newer generation rather than just still focusing on psychial sales. We are getting a lot of streaming sites and online manga, after all. |
 |
| IDOLiSH7 continuing to sell well is making me very happy. This anime deserves it so much! |

_Senpai said: I don't think being in netflix really affects sales number. Almost every anime will get their BD rip uploaded online and people can pirate it for free anyway so every anime are in the same position imo. I think BD sales number show how many passionate fans can a series attract.5K+ for something thats already available to watch on Netflix is a really good amount, who knows how much more it would've sold otherwise Also buying BD/DVD is not solely for the anime, but it contains bonuses. Could be event ticket, poster, original illustration, animation draft, or the most recent and genius, Takagi-san PE uniform lol. |

| @zaso In Mai-Hime, a lot of shoujo ai? I heard that there |
|
that really happens? i haven't watched it tho so idk how gay it is lol but it is one of most influential gl anime, i see a lot of people asking for its continuation even after all these years |
zaso said: that really happens? i haven't watched it tho so idk how gay it is lol but it is one of most influential gl anime, i see a lot of people asking for its continuation even after all these years Well, I've often heard that it and Mai-Otome are "incredibly gay", but judging from what I read on TV Trops, both of these shows are quite far from the current trend of turning any mahou shoujo into yuri. |
