NGNL movie selling well, about to break 30K.

Actually, it's pushing 40k. It shows up in 3 spots here, so there are also over 9k additional between DVD and regular edition Blu-ray.

Glad that AXZ had good sales through the various volumes. Now just have to sit tight and wait another year for the 5th season.

The NGNL movie continues to sell well which is of course no surprise. Really well done.

Happy to see that IDOLiSH7 is doing well. This show is being ignored in the west but it's popularity in Japan is what matters in terms of second seasons and what not so I'm glad. It's a really good show, I say that as someone who watches idol shows but isn't specifically dedicated to any of them, but IDOLiSH7 has me captivated with it's characters, music, and how it includes the rough side of the entertainment industry and the importance of fans. It's not just silly fanservice it's got a lot of heart and not to mention it's drama and how well it builds. The amount of foreshadowing in this series is incredible, there is some in every episode. I've been raving long enough so I'll leave it at this, I love this series and I'm happy to see it's selling well.

Man...every time I expect Symphogear to reach #1, there's always a movie or Love Live to edge over it. Oh well. At least its sales were consistent for a season 4, especially compared to the other sequels that were released. Hopefully XV does the same. I hope the Live sells just as well, especially considering what happened during the concert...

What I'm worried about now is that the Walkure Live and Symphogear Live occurred at precisely the same time, so when the Blu-Rays of the lives release, they're going to have to compete against one another. I don't want my two favorite franchises competing against one another!

Fanfiction fantasies man, it's all about them.

Well, I understand how qeerbaiting works and why this is so much in idol\mahou shoujo anime for males. But in SimeM this is almost none. At least, not at such a practically confirmed level as in Symphogear.

Good news for Just Because!

Mar 6, 2018 5:52 AM by NG_Chloe

I bet the industry will have nothing but idol anime in about 5 years from now

Mar 6, 2018 5:40 AM by HaXXspetten

Sunshine gonna break 50k with volume 1 and I'm glad to see volume 2 almost breaking 40k .:D

Mar 6, 2018 5:37 AM by Lelouch0202

Japan and their idols! There will be a time when every single studio out there will have their own idol franchises to survive in this unforgiving industry. That's all I am gonna say here!

Mar 6, 2018 5:30 AM by shanimebib

First three spots sums up Japan pretty well

It's really sad to see how little idol anime (male and female) needs to sell a lot and how much other anime needs.

Looking at sales, I generally had a doubt that last year was something EXCEPT anime about idols.

Pretty boys selling well, how unexpected.

As ecxpected of Symphogear. Too bad we need to wait a year for season 5.

Pop team epic still selling strong. I guess I'm in the minority cause I can't unserstand the comedy, parody, or whatever it's trying to convey.
