Huge cut for Sunshine this time around, but it's okay to stay positive for now. While μ’s had a bigger numbers for their counterpart, it is due to the fact that they were already established at that point. Aqours on the other hand is barely over a year since their debut.


µ's already pulling big BD numbers for the season 1 sales already? I think it is fair to compare the season 1 of µ's with season 1 of aqours.


Just comparing the Aqours 1st Season CD sales and µ's 2nd Season CD sales, the numbers are very similar, so it is more appropriate to compare Aqours to the 2nd Season rather than the 1st Season, where µ's actually had to build their fanbase. Aqours only needs to convince the current massive Love Live! fanbase to support them and possibly get new fans to the Love Live! franchise. I wouldn't compare Aqours to µ's in their Movie era yet, because that's when µ's pretty much reached their peak in popularity and success.

These sales just shows that Aqours is well behind μ’s. Can the upcoming 1st live in February and/or a 2nd Season anime increase their sales, or are they doomed to forever be in μ’s' shadow?

I feel bad for Aqours.


Do you have the data for the µ's season 1 BD sales per volume? All I found is the average BD sales of LL S1 which is 29k and yeah.. 23k is quite disappointing, for LL standards of course. 15+K for other anime series is considered a juggernaut

In a Biz leak, Keijo!!!!!!!! sold 715 copies. RIP. Everyone who says fanservice/ecchi anime sells is completely wrong.

Agree with that, same people say every 'generic' harem sells well also despite never looking at all to see that is so far from the truth.

This deserves to be on the list, nice sales!!😊

Strike the blood II sales are so good. I hope they add more episodes after it finishes

Nov 29, 2016 8:27 AM by thepath

LL sunshine represent.

STB, NW and HxH all doing well, lots of other series seem well off too :)

Damn Keijo!!!!!!!! sold badly, wasn't expecting a lot but to not even make the cut-off is incredibly disappointing. Can only hope the money coming in from streaming elsewhere will make up for it as I heard it is very popular in some western countries streaming. My copy should be arriving in the next week or so hopefully.

The manga doesn't seem to have had a noticeable boost either which is sad.

Fab to see Strike The Blood still selling strongly. Macross Δ dropping again is expected but still disappointing. Still good sales though and everything else for it seems to be a hit.

Strike the Blood's first pair of OVAs sold even higher so actually I'm surprised this one didn't sell more but I hear it has no event ticket while the first OVA did have one.

Macross Delta's drop is more than I expected. Actually the drops for LoveLive Sunshine, Re:Zero and Macross Delta are all higher than I expected so I won't be surprised if wk2 is higher than expected.


I'm not surprised about Keijo!!!!!!!! doing as bad as it did. It wasn't popular in Japan to begin with. It was already doomed: doing under 2k but under 1k? Holy shit that's bad.

@Ejc How do Aqours stack up against μ’s on a volume by volume basis so far?


Not that great.

18.72% down vs LL 2nd Season Vol.1 in terms of 1st week sales, it is bigger if compared to the total sales.
It is slightly higher vs LL 2nd Season Vol.2, but that's because of the 1st Live Day 2 event ticket serial code bundled on it.
43.95% down vs LL 2nd Season Vol.3 in terms of 1st week sales.

*7. *4,114 *4,114 New Game! Vol.3

happy about this :3
Would like it to be more/higher up but not everyone can have superior taste in anime~

A bit surprised that working actually managed to sell 3.2k. It's not that I think it's bad or anything like that and I'm watching it... but I expected less tbh

Flying Witch selling good is also really nice

Nov 29, 2016 5:20 AM by Toadesstern

Very good sales for Shirobako, considering how expensive both boxes are.

Nov 29, 2016 5:08 AM by Rorek

The Strike the Blood sales surprised me quite a bit. Macross Delta falling now ..kinda expected.
