| nice that a mecha like Gridman is selling well |
| ZLS has to get a season 2 after that cliffhanger and dem BD sells. |
STOP SLEEPING ON ODD TAXI |
| Mmm...Yummy Sales last week...And Zombieland Saga is a huge success.. |
 |
| Holy fuck Zombieland Saga sold well. Guess I'll have to go watch it now. I've also been seeing that SSSS.Gridman thing around quite a bit so that too probably. |
 |
| SSSS.Gridman actually might end up doing much better than Darling in the FRANXX. Funny how Trigger was expecting Darling to smash the charts with all the promotions with A1 before it even aired with little to no advertisement for Gridman. The cult status actually worked. Also, the heroines in Gridman are far superior compared to the ones from Darling in the FRANXX. I see those Yagate Kimi ni Naru numbers and ask why would animators be bothered with that genre? Also, I like it how Japan treating Uma Musume like it's a national treasure. While the anime was fun, it's no where as good as the numbers suggest. I guess CGDCT, sports girls, idol stuff, demi-human AND most importantly those BELLIES, all worked. That's a considerable fanbase /fetishbase right there. Gotta say, job well done! |

| Yoooo Uma Musume and Zombieland saga right to the top! I’m so happy Was exepcting Gridman to sell more, oh well |
| Zombie Land saga sells! Second season is secured. |

 |
| JoJo deserve a lot more than that Good to see Strike the Blood III doing well |
| Wow really good sales this week. Jojo deserves way more tbh but it's still something I haven't watched Zombieland Saga but apparently Japan liked it a lot. Yagate Kimi ni Naru also has decent sales for a shoujo ai. |
My reaction when I saw this.  Season 2 please. Music Come On! Zombieland Saga is one of the hidden gems this season that I never thought I enjoy. Thanks youtube recommendations for showing this scene. tsubasalover said: *8. *5,477 **5,477 Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai Vol.1 Limited Edition Sorry Buta, Anime of Fall 2018 goes to Zombieland Saga. However, I think Slime might surpass Zombie sales. |

| I am ok with the sales for Bunny Girl Senpai and glad that Japan likes Gridman. |
| 4. *2,849 **2,849 Yagate Kimi ni Naru Vol. I do not understand. This show was definitely one of the best of the season, and the best, which was entirely devoted to romance. But why was it even less financially successful than Strike the Blood OVA? *3. 12,640 *12,640 Zombieland Saga Vol.1 *6. *7,115 **7,115 SSSS.Gridman Vol.1 *8. *5,477 **5,477 Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai Vol.1 Limited Edition No words, I'm glad. This is truly one of the best anime seasons in my life. I have never seen so many successful and financially successful shows in one season. |
 |
| 12k in almost 2019 is REALLY impressive, especially for an original series. When's season 2? Also 2.5k for high score girl is okay. Hopefully sales are boosted by EVO Japan. |
 I don't watch as much anime as before... |

SSSS.Gridman was really promoted in Japan, way more than Franxx by Tsuburaya. Not even counting that the anime is part of the Gridman franchise which was really popular on Japan so it got many fans already to watch it. It's not semantics. Those are literally different things. |
tokusatsu is live action though, the only live action on the anime ssss gridman is the final scene you do not have to be so strict with definitions here, mecha means mechanilcal and ssss gridman have that |
| Go ZLS go go gog go go! So happy with those sales. Decent sales for Bloom Into You.........I would have liked more tho :/ Poor Juliet, one of my favorite shows this season :'( Release the Spyce was fun too, shame. And the most surprising thing is without a doubt the sales of Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere, like damn, surprising quantity for: 1. A Blu-ray Box 2. A series from 6 years ago |
| If you look at only the TV anime from Q4 of 2018: 1. ZLS 13K 2. Gridman 7.1K 3. Bunnygirl 5.5K 4. JoJo GW 4.1K 5. YagaKimi 2.8K No idea how much this consideration counts with the suits, might not count at all. But if you look at it this way, in that given week Bloom into You was the 5th best selling TV anime from Fall 2018, at least by BluRay sales. (It's not the only metric, I know.) So basically, naysayers can eat ass. Talking more generally, maybe if Western fans chip in and collectively order BRs from Japan they can influence these numbers more closely. I guess crowdsourcing to buy BRs is more than a little absurd, but this is capitalism after all; if you don't pay better than the next asshole your favorite show might just not get a second season. You can never even know if your favorite show is dead because the anime industry is even worse about transparency than Hollywood. |

SSSS. Gridman, Bunny Girl Senpai, ZLS, and Strike the Blood are making a big profit from their first volume already and are bound to do well with the rest. This also does prove that BD sales aren't dying, as this BD sales news is showing that they're still very relevant in Japan. I was wondering if this was the case, since a lot of people were trying to argue the reason for DxD Hero's sales being so low was because of streaming services. However, these new anime releases are making so much money and selling so many copies that it busts that theory. Japan just weren't that into the new season and their changes. Maybe that' why season 5 is now on hiatus/postponement again (since the author is either looking for a new studio (Implying he left) to fix the problems that Passione had or to make the series look like it used to |
