Another week with low sales, unless I'm missing on something, this is pretty weird.
The usual bulk of anime are released within the penultimate and last weeks of the month, so it is rare to see releases over 10K at the start and middle of the months. No idea why distributors don't spread the releases out, but that's how the market works.
Looking at the releases for December, we have the Love Live Movie on December 15th, which will sell > 100K copies, and a low/mid-tier release such as the 2nd live for Idolmaster Million Live (<= 10K copies?). The rest should be in the penultimate and last week of December as I said. I don't see any other 10K+ releases in the start and middle of December, unless I missed something?

Welp those K sales suck ass compared to its first season.
Very fitting considering scenes such as this one:
The Seri fanservice is so horrid it makes me cringe. They don't treat her like that in the manga spinoffs
the new otome game coming out etc.
Its been out for a good while and it didn't get good reviews. K most likely won't get another season probably just manga spinoffs and LNs after this.

Oh please, it's clearly due to the wide-angle lens; zooming in on what's closest to the lens. No need to overreact because you aren't attracted to women.
>implying implications
at least i'm not the one getting pissy cause someone doesn't like piss poor drawings of girls he likes. at least i can quote people properly too.
woops, dun quoted myself.
anyway, i'm actually neutral towards k overall. I just find it funny when people over-exaggerate over little drawings. I mean, an ulcer?

Here are the weekly Blu-ray & DVD rankings for November 9 - 15
*2. 2,922 **2,922 K: Return of Kings Vol.1 Limited Edition
*3. 2,664 **2,664 K: Return of Kings Vol.2 Limited Edition
Yikes…
GoHands clearly animated K with an insane budget, and these sales don't help that fact.
Again:
I don't think BD/DVD sales matter all that much for K Project. It's still really popular enough to have manga spinoffs running in many magazines, more merchandise, the new otome game coming out etc.
It's still somewhat of a sharp drop from season 1 (averaged about 8k), but given the gap between the two seasons, it was expected.
I'll add a little more: This is just the first week. With the second week and extended lists, it could add get to ~4k.
P.S Some of you are ignoring the DVD sales. They're not much, but they're important too.

are you even looking at that image? her top half is like separated from her hips. it's so anatomically incorrect it gives me an ulcer. i don't get how anyone could look at that and defend it.

I'm not even sad. I watched the first few episodes and was kind of disappointed in this season. Oh well.
oh the humanity, they showed that poor defenceless woman's panties?! sarcasm aside, you would actually expect it to have more sales from the male audiences with scenes like that.
not just pretty boys, but ofc most people see it that way lol

Overlord read the novel is much better than the anime.
I've read it, and it needs more seasons too :'(
Maybe next summer.
Nov 17, 2015 8:58 AM by ichii_1

I want a devilman anime, but with today's censorship I worry :'(
Maybe an OVA style format by madhouse.

not just pretty boys, but ofc the fujoshi see it that way lol
It's not the panties, but rather the way it's done.

Wait, so they didn't stop doing that shit?
It's only here and there but when it happens it's obnoxious as fuck. So it's not like they have scenes like this every 5 minutes.
K is mainly about pretty boys fighting after all.
