Jujutsu Kaisen continues to rock the Blu-ray sales chart as the latest volume released the week between April 19 and April 25 kept the momentum exhibited by the 3rd Volume in March to maintain sales above 16,000 copies. Note that, Volume 1 and Volume 2’s Blu-rays had approximately 14,000 copies sold in their first weeks. Coupled with sales of its DVDs, despite a slight dip from the 8,000 copies sold by its 3rd volume, the 4th volume saw a total of 23,753 copies sold in its debut week! The debut sales for all its volumes alone now is at 92,785 copies. I also did an unboxing of Volume 4 right here, so do check it out!

It is thanks to the amazing folks over at Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so be sure to head over to their site here and show them some love! Besides, all the data you find below is accessible here (Blu-ray) and here (DVD) via Oricon.
Apart from that, the week’s chart features an entire line-up of new releases including Fate/Grand Order: Shinsei Entaku Ryouiki Camelot Wandering; Agateram at number 2. It trails Jujutsu Kaisen‘s Volume 4 at 5,226 copies sold. The title is a prequel to Fate/Grand Order: Zettai Majuu Sensen Babylonia, and the one listed here serves as the first out of the two episodes released by Aniplex. Episode 2 is slated to release in May. Head over to number 3 is Mo Dao Zu Shi Zenjin-hen, a surprise addition to the list. This is the first time ever since I started the blog that I see a Chinese Anime ranking this high up in the charts. Plus, it managed healthy sales of 4,511 copies sold in its first week. Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu at number 4, performed decently with 4,385 copies sold. Considering the Blu-ray comes in at a pretty pricey tag of about ¥15,000 (~$137.74), it did quite well. And then there is Haikyuu!!: To the Top at number 6. The series started out slow from Volume 1 to Volume 3, but sales improved from Volume 4 onward. The total sales for both Blu-ray and DVD have maintained above 5,900 copies sold from Volume 4 to Volume 6.

From number 8 to 10, you will find Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon, Maoujou de Oyasumi and A3!. Though sales were not strong enough to breach Oricon’s Top 20 chart for the week due to competition from non-Anime titles. The cutoff is 2,705 copies, thus they have all sold below the amount. Without further ado, the full list is as follows:
