Yeah. They adapted six volumes and both additional one(at least most of it) if I remember right. So making new season means making it at least half anime-original. Same goes for Haganai btw

So Oricon considered this a "manga" that's why I don't see it in Novel sales. It's more like an Illustrated Novel than an actual LN though..

Anyway, YAY it ranked! The next volume will be the FINAL one for s2 looking forward to the sales if it ranks

Also expecting an anime for Sakamoto at this rate. Seeing a Jojo Spinoff do well is also awesome. As for my wishlist, that would be a new season for Oofuri <3.

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

What sales numbers did you predict for Oregairu and why do you think it didn't hit the target?

Additionally, do you think Monster Musume has a good chance for an anime adaption?

Well OreGairu was consistently at top of Amazon ranking so I was expecting it would get near 100k mark. It turned out the weakened IS franchise (vol.8) still beat OreGairu (with the same number of days on sale, by 83k to 81k)

shigeru212 said:

The premise of the manga is eccentric and unconventional - I am not sure how many anime fans find half-beast-half-girl form moe. It plays well on manga but anime could be a very different world. I see chances of its getting anime but I am sure it would be taken as some challenge for anybody taking this up.

^ I would think that the major reprint would be a much more significant factor. Pent-up demand is met in one go, resulting in tens of thousands of copies sold right away.

Yes.
Start reading it, rate it 3/10 max. and continue to laugh at how hilariously stupid everything is.
I personally hope for bad anime adaption as well!

Only volumes 1 and 6 of OreGairu have recorded total sales of over 100k - the former due to the anime boost and the latter due to both that and the half year rankings. Getting 81k in the first week is thus impressive. It's more than double what volume 7 sold on its first week.

Also I believe this is the first time that YuuShibu has ranked on the LN list.

Four more novels and we might see OreGairu season two... great sales, hopefully shows a bump to volume six numbers before the tail falls off. Great writing, deseving of the sales and praise.

On LNDB Mecasonic, where I posed the same question, said Yuushibu 2 had 7K sakes and the first volume sales week data is missing.

I suspect it benefited a lot from Attack on Titan's success, because the hilarious cockroach design reminds people of the Titan designs. But the series feels a lot more like a mindless slasher flick in the mold of Gantz rather than a series with plot like Attack on Titan, so I am not sure if a Terra Formars anime can become a success.

Will be probably until winter/spring 2015 before there are enough OreGairu novels out for season 2 unfortunately. But I also look forward to it.

OwariMonogatari is in 17th place this week but look at the TOTAL sales in the last number column:
17. *6,109 180,672 Owarimonogatari

180K !!! It's doing great! And, it costs ¥1500 per volume while most other light novels are ¥500-700 so in fact that 180K is like even more volumes of regular light novels compared to the actual money coming in.

Owarimonogatari overtook hanamonogatari in total recorded sales this week. Next one above it from that series is koyomimonogatari on 188.5k.

P.S. kind of off topic but I was looking back at old rankings lists and found this:
*2, 40,839 *40,839 Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wakeganai vol.3
*6, 24,173 *24,173 Sword Art Online vol.1
