 "Think about that glowing dust That destroys the night sky's dream of Just being nothing"--  -- |
| expected more BnHA sales |
 |
| 18. **,313 **4,684 BanG Dream! Vol.5 Still hanging there it seems. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| I thought BnHA was super popular in Japan? Sales seem to be average. The sales are almost just like Noragami's , but BnHA still gets a third season. :') |
| Help the industry and buy Blu-rays and DVD's. Noragami is the best anime ever.  |
| Wow, Frame Arms Girl sales though. Tbh the unneded fanservice made me dislike the show :c |
Yaboku said: I thought BnHA was super popular in Japan? Sales seem to be average.

BnHA popular likely due manga not anime, The anime serves it purpose to advertise people who havent read it or too lazy to read manga. See that Frame Arm Girl not even got a top 10 during the airing vote, with ridicolous critique by people. Yet here it sells like 10k for a single volume. In previous week Frame arm also appear on the top list https://myanimelist.net/news/52459391 I dont think a normal logic apply to anime industry anymore. (i mean to insult anime industry, not people) |
| So... last week we got Gakkou Gurashi Box and this week we got *8. **,904 ***,904 Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai Complete Blu-ray BOX Hmm, is there a trend of old anime getting BD boxes that I didn't know about? I know DAL gets its BD Box + Director's Cut last year too. |

Same goes for Dragon Ball Super, but when it comes to Clothing, Toys etc DBsuper and One Piece sell alot. |

This is a little misleading. For late night shows (almost all anime not aimed at kids) BDs/DVDs matter a lot and TV ratings are irrelevent. (Because you dont get ratings at 1am anyway) kids shows like BnHA and OP, however, have manga sales and TV ratings as much better guides to its popularity. Parents dont buy expensive blu rays but they will buy manga and the kids with watch cartoons in the mornings (making ratings important) |
| Wow. Vol. 4 and Frame Arms is still selling well... Next week will the the moment of truth. Made in Abyss and Owarimonogatari S2. AXZ vol.2 will also be there, but I doubt that it will outsell MiA and Owarimonogatari. I do hope that the sales for vol.2 will stay high along with vol.1 though... |
 |
| It can't be too shocking that the BNHA sales are on the low side. Glad the west is making up for those sales in stride. Also Frame Arms Girl......really...... |
 |
| F.A.G. strong, those yugioh sales might as well not even sell it XD |

| While you shitpost about other taste, i watch or read stuff :D |
| Not a fan of Frame Arms Girl but good for the fans. Season 2 coming in the future? |

| Those above are correct. Shounen titles like One Piece, MHA, Bleach, Naruto, etc survive mostly on manga and merchandise sales, with home releases and ratings for ad revenue serving as an important addition. MHA actually got higher ratings than Naruto Shippuden did in its climactic arc. One Piece blu-ray sales are horrible, but the One Piece Log DVD collections which have more episodes on them than the blu-rays sets, are substantially cheaper but slower in production and get upwards of 8000 sales per set depending on the arc. A similar trend should follow MHA when the complete collection is released. Home release sales for this year are actually down compared to last year, but anime streaming has become much bigger and more profitable. Especially in China. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-09-25/japanese-anime-home-video-commercial-sales-fall-16.6-percent-in-1st-half-of-2017/.121809 |

| Yo little witch academia??? AKA the only academia that matters. |
 I don't watch as much anime as before... |

Kuma said: milkydean said: It's the tv ratings that matter.Disc sales are only bonus at this point.How do you think One piece became one of the most profitable anime of all time with only 800-1000 disc sales? One piece Blu Ray Box which called "log collection" still sold around 13 K per box... it usually contain 20 episode or so (depend on arc)... we don't know yet how much blu ray box BnHA do... It's only 4 episodes a box plus a drama CD. So it's not very shocking that the sales aren't reaching top chart and they're releasing them as slow as ever. |

All I've seen is people pulling shit straight from their asses without evidence https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-06-23/top-selling-media-franchises-in-japan-2017/.117939 Next time, just ask. |

| does the manga of My Hero Academia have a boost on sales though? disc sales are not everything for prime time slots like they have anyway |

So where do they say that "ratings are more important than BD/dvd sales"? A little reading comprehension on your part would be nice. The anime pushed the series into one of the most profitable franchises in Japan this year despite the low BD/DVD sales. The ratings brought exposure to the series and all other manner of merchandises increased in sales despite the low BD/DVD sales. This is the same for One Piece and was the same for Naruto Shippuden, Hitman Reborn, Bleach, and so on. MHA was not in the top selling media franchises ijn Japan before the anime aired in 2016. The BR/DVD sales were even lower then. https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-12-29/top-selling-media-franchises-in-japan-2016/.110442 https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-12-29/top-selling-media-franchises-in-japan-2015/.97051 Ergo, ratings matter more than BD/DVD sales because it brings exposure to the franchise so other forms can be bring in profit. |

This thread is about the BD/dvd sales, and I'm saying how much of a flop these sales were. And some people pulling shit from their asses and say "the ratings matter more Than bd/dvd sales without real evidence or some shit. I know that it was one of the most profitable anime of this year due to the manga sales mainly and some other things, but in these sales it was a huge flop Nobody argued against that. They said, regardless of the low sales, the anime still did its job and you claimed there was no evidence to suggest this. Which I showed to you. |
