I’m so happy to see YOI selling 35k copies in its first week, actually I wanted it to sell 50k copies but I guess sport anime can’t sell this huge compares to Idol anime. Anyway, God, thanks for making my wish come true. I would like to buy it but I’m not a fan of collecting anime in Japanese, so I should wait 2-3 years for Funimation to release it. :D

And I'm so happy to announce that Yuri on ice!!! is the most sold sport anime for Vol.1. I'm sure it's going to beat Free! Both seasons.

Now I’m curious Utapri sales.

B-Project is selling lesser and lesser wtf. Well, I’m bit sad.

@tsubasalover double post for blu-ray?

Animation of the first two episodes really don't need any improving.

Yeah massive sales. Is that the biggest success for a completely new show last year?

It was predicted for roughly 35k for a over a month now, this is basically just confirmation. But yeah still pretty big. Think it's like top 25-30 all-time for volume 1 sales

I'm pretty sure I remember some awful looking shots in the 2nd ep. XD (The characters weren't even skating... just standing still and talking. Yet the picture still looked pretty bad.)

I think Osomatsu-san sold the most in 2016.

Osomatsu was fall 2015.

When people talk about "highest of season" or "best of year" they are talking about the season and year it aired in. Otherwise Yuri on ice would be a 2017 show.

UtaPri is your "love live" for girls and they've making that for years.

Also MAPPA is on the production committee for Yuri on Ice and this is about 6k higher than Stalker predicted.

Well yeah but that's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about which series sold how much during a specific 12-month period. Has nothing to do with when they aired. If a 2014 show suddenly sold a ton during 2016 for whatever reason it'll still be listed under 2016 sales even if it's a 2014 anime, etcetera. Same with long-running shows like One Piece

Utapri always have incredible Vol 1 sales, then it tapers off to have 20-30k average. YOI may or may not have a better average than Utapri.

For week 1 sales:

Utapri season 2 vol 1:

BD - 28,253
DVD - 26,207
Total - 54k
(source)

Utapri season 3 vol 1:

BD - 31,157

I guess the 80% price drop on the Kuma Box helped them sold a little more.

Im sure this whole thing might spawn a new trend to pump out lots of fujoshi bait, seeing how this sold so much, which even the most hyped shows can hardly compete. This is pure profit what the studios were aiming for all these years

It's too bad it wasn't officially subtitled "Yuuri on Ice" in the marketing and packaging. That likely would have reduced the confusion. It is a long 'u' in Japanese but they chose to shorten it like Yuki Aoi usually does with her name when written in romaji.

Honestly I quite enjoyed Yu(u)ri on Ice! It was a lot of fun! Not a show I'd buy but having actually watched it, there's no way it would have worked with a female cast. Would not have worked at all.

I've heard rumors of Kubo sensei working on a yuri story though (not Yuuri). She doesn't like het relationships. So yuri fans may get their wish too.
