It just seems like a lot of the time the stuff that is very successful (at least in terms of media sales) in anime happens to be stuff that I have strong personal reasons for disliking on a whole.
I just think that we should not judge anime any different from judging other popular entertainment, like pop music or movies. At the end there will be songs and movies, perhaps even the majority of them, that we think do not worth their success and then there are many of them we would think do not deserve their obscurity. If anything, I would advocate a more lenient view for the anime simply because it is from a culture that are foreign to us (thus we need to bear in mind that we may be judging it by our own cultural preference and sensibility) and because the market and size of fandom is much more restricted (Japanese anime market is smaller than its manga market which in turn is smaller than the movie or music market which in turn is much smaller than the English-speaking movie or music market or English-speaking comics market -- which means taste-wise it can be a very niche affair). It just seems like a lot of the time the stuff that is very successful (at least in terms of media sales) in anime happens to be stuff that I have strong personal reasons for disliking on a whole.

I'm not sure I can agree right now that it seems to be balance that's the key because it's usually the series that I find to be well-balanced that I see doing poor to average in terms of tapping the collectors market. Instead it seems to be the series that are tilted specifically towards catering to a specific fetish or idea that seem to get the most attention and ultimately make the charts.
"Balance" is a subjective word -- we have to bear this in mind. When I said "balance" it is "balance" from the fans' point of view. So you may think that fan service is not needed at all, or even a bad thing to have in general, fans may deem it one factor they need to include when they decide whether to buy the discs. But on the other hand, too much fan service moments would destroy the "balance" in their view, so an anime that goes too far on that direction, at the expense of say story (even though those fans may not put overly high priority to story, it does not mean they do not care about story at all -- again "balance" is in play), may end up failingl to sell.

Yet it has nothing to do with what the show did itself so much as circumstances surrounding its light novel ending. It just continues to depress me that getting popularity and media sales is apparently as easy as having the right cute moe girl pair up with the guy at the right time.
I think it is a lot more than that because if it is the case why don't we see huge jump like this for shows like Sakurasou, which also saw the novel approaching the end with the right cute moe girl paired up with the guy as the anime was aired. Things you dismissed as "easy" may not be that "easy". Yet it has nothing to do with what the show did itself so much as circumstances surrounding its light novel ending.

I'd like to be able to argue that anime on average succeeds because of good storytelling and strong overall production values, but it gets harder and harder to argue that all the time.
You can't because it is never really that simple. Many western fans like to obsess about story/plot or storytelling, but I have argued before that this is always just one of the many factors people consider when they consider whether to buy its discs and it may not even be the biggest factor they consider. And does it mean that they are wrong? I don't think so, because if, after factoring in all aspects of the anime, they decide that it is worth their money despite a not-so-strong story or storytelling, I don't think we are there to judge them. And it is similar for production values. Strong production values can boost attention and raise interest, but at the end we also know that just strong production values can sometimes be not enough, just like just having a bunch of cute girls or lots of moe elements can often be insufficient to make an anime an auto success. At the end there is the balance thing, and it can be elusive, which is why you may say it is 'easy' but still studios and production companies are still struggling to find the formula that can make a successful anime more like a certainty.I'd like to be able to argue that anime on average succeeds because of good storytelling and strong overall production values, but it gets harder and harder to argue that all the time.
There's definitely a certain formula and combination of elements that seems to work better than others at any given time (right now it's a combination of idols, imouto/onii-chan relationships and hyper-competent bordering on omniscient leading characters who always seem to have things go their way), but it's definitely true that sometimes it feels more like just rolling a D20 and hoping for the best. It just seems like a lot of the time the stuff that is very successful (at least in terms of media sales) in anime happens to be stuff that I have strong personal reasons for disliking on a whole. I'd say it's about 50/50 between stuff that I have strong positive feelings for and stuff that I have strong negative feelings for so maybe there's something to be said for a correlation with anime that seem to evoke strong feelings from fans in general positive or negative and high Amazon chart positions.

Nowadays it's all seemingly about the A-1 formula. Have a strong pre-installed fanbase for the work you are licensing and just do whatever with it and hope the source works already massive popularity can see you through to a profit. SAO, Magi and now this......
I can only call this a bad omen on the season. Thankfully it isn't always like this, but you'll find me hard pressed to claim that A-1 is doing anything I consider positive for the growth of the anime scene these days. Amazing how they went from one of the companies I was most hopeful for having a breakout period of high quality adaptations that are of interest to me to one of my most disliked companies in terms of their practices and execution in a little over a year.

I think they want to boost the DVD rather than the BD. The BD costs more to produce than the DVD I imagine... with both at the same RRP. So they will probably add some extra on the DVD to make up some of the difference in production costs I guess, and to make it more attractive for the female audience.

Something seems to be wrong with UtaPrince2 DVD v1 in Amazon. It has stopped taking orders and its ranking has dropped continuously since Friday, from 30-something to over 200 now. I wonder what happens.... BD v1 is fine though.

It seems like it will be replaced by a new entry i'm guessing... The entry state is exactly the same as for Railgun 2 and Eva 3.33 back then.

I kinda feel bad now for buying incest themed anime blurays than action-packed seinen adapatations...
That reminds me my Yosuga no Sora blurays aren't even opened from the case and just sits here to draw away visitors haha. I wonder if I'll do the same with Oreimo series...
Shingeki picked the wrong season for me. Oh well. If it was released in the autumn season I could've bundled it due to holiday bonus'.

OreImo2 v1 is now NUMBER 2 in Amazon ranking and outranks Shingeki no Kyojin v1 (which is #4). Amazing... IIRC this is the first time an anime this season climbed above SnK (not counting Railgun2 which was a re-entry under an updated format)
BTW #1 is Koto no Ha no Niwa...

Don't expect it to be the last time an anime is above SnK, anyone who had read the manga could have told you that the best part of the series is the first 2-3 volumes and the numbers for SnK are going to go nowhere but downhill from now onwards.

Amazing, I didn't think that controversy like this would be good marketing in Japan but it seems I'm wrong. I still won't buy it but that's just me... Is there something special in volume #5 that makes it rank higher than the rest other than #1?

OreImo is getting staggered solicitations on Amazon. v5 was only added on May 31... so that is probably the reason why it is ranked higher relative to earlier volumes atm.

Also seems I'm wrong about downloads ruining sales. With Koto no Ha no Niwa selling the BD (or a different version?) in theatres on day one and it being ripped and uploaded the same day I thought for sure sales would tank but it seems I couldn't be more wrong! Glad for it, hope the real sales reflect it. Mine is preordered, always love his work, beautifully done.

I wonder if it will hit #1? All the other volumes and the DVD v1 have had substantial rises because of the pulling effect I guess.
EDIT: The rise is getting fiercer, lol.
