So I asked a friend about why KuroBas' second volume wasn't ranking as spectacularly as the first one. And she contacted amazon about it and they said because of less stock the rankings weren't stable.

Now I'm thinking maybe this is a reason too. Fans are still busy buying the First Volume lol.

Very slow week for sales. But Kuroko finally broke 20k. Nice.
I need a season 2 though. With only 5 more episodes, I think we're gonna be left hanging for the Winter Cup. Make it happen I.G. Look at the sales the show brought you.

Winter Cup in anime form gonna be so great.

If Bakuman got 3 season, no reason Kuroko would not get it.

Yeah, Winter Cup is awesome stuff. Especially when we see how Kuroko/Kagami improves and Teppei plays as well.

And yeah, Bakuman got 3 seasons in 3 years(that always comes out in Fall) so I also want this to have one. If we're going for that, the closest would be next Spring. As long as they announce that there will be one, I will wait even for Fall of next year.

Ugh, why...? LiSA needs to improve on her vocals and not shout everything.


Also Kurobas 20k, season two should at the earliest be in Winter (funny cause that'll be the WINTER cup)

At this point, I won't be too surprised if there's announcement of 2nd season KuroBas.

Totoro sales are good as always, and seeing LiSA up there is pretty reassuring.

12, 11,497 11,497 Moyashimon Returns "Wake Up"

Man that is low for ClariS. Even their very first single sold more in its opening week, and then went on to more than quadruple that as they really caught on, which I doubt will happen here when they're already established. Well, Moyashimon Returns is a hell of a lot less popular than OreImo or Nise or Madoka so a drop isn't too shocking.


It is a such shame to see low sales for this single :(

They will be singing the ED (ルミナス) for the Madoka Magica movie though, so their next single should be something to look forward to in terms of sales and of course their new song featured on the single.

Would have been more than slightly worrying if it wasn't for a week like that.

But still, it's good.

It's temporal because we are still waiting for the sales figures for the following 5 anime and for all the BD/DVD volumes to stop ranking (i'm guessing)...


  • Saint Seiya Omega [DVD+BD] (2012/08/24)
  • Upotte!! [DVD+BD] (2012/08/31)
  • Fate/Zero II [BD-BOX] (2012/09/19)
  • Lupin the Third: Mine Fujiko to Iu Onna [DVD-BOX+BD-BOX] (2012/09/19)
  • Uchuu Kyoudai [DVD+BD-BOX] (2012/09/26)

I have always wandered why the Japanese companies tend to release a lot of the Anime DVD/Blu-Ray in the same week. Instead of distributing the releases in the whole month. I mean sometimes we end up with slow weeks like this one and then we have extremely busy weeks where a lot of releases don't even rank because of the high threshold. Wouldn't it better to put the slow selling titles in a slow week, instead of being obliterated by the major titles sales.

Pretty good for LiSA. Though I was kinda of disappointed in the Full Ver. Sure, the short version is awesome and all, but the full version was kinda of meh.

Ahaha, nice to see vocaloid on top. ♥ Other than that, BRIGHT STREAM and crossing field I feel have been dominating the charts, having been on there for a while. (Not that I don't see why). Yume Sekai and Hohoemi no Plumage aren't bad though either. :3

Nothing crazy about it, Sunrise might envied A-1 a lot when SAO disc got released. And Sunrise did a lot better job (at least on visual and animation) on AW than what A-1 did with SAO, can't do shit with its shitty story.
