I'm surprised Ristorante Paradiso beat out Hayate!!

That's because Hayate was released last week. In this market, sales are completely front-loaded.

do you buy bd/dvd or anytype of merchandise or any which way possible contribute to the anime industry? more than likely that is a no

I'm purchasing Higashi no Eden and Saki DVDs now. not to mention Kara no Kyoukai.

only ment to direct it towards the numerous people that always complain about this show.

so when it comes to your opinions, you all can join these forums and quarral back and forth because that is as far as your opinions are going to get. :-D

you people are all complaining that haruhi is still third, but hey it could be worse............ it could of sold just as well as the last DVD but luckily it didn't and did take quite a hit and i imagine the next volumes III and IV / V and VI will sell even fewer. With that said it is a little annoying that so many did sell, but you don't always get what you wish for

as for queens blade.............. i've got nothing to say except wow, just wow

*tears of joy*

As long as Hetalia is first, I won't complain about Haruhi or Queen's Blade XD
But probably I'll end up complaining anyway.

Agreed.

I am glad to see a drop for Haruhi, yes it still sales good, but a drop is good, you will see the next two DVDs do worse I think then a jump back for the end of Endless Eight and Sigh.
