Well, sales of Anime Blu-rays and DVDs for the week between August 10 to August 16 got no steam, most likely due to the lack of titles released during the specified week. In fact, only Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na! was the only title to come out, and as such it tops the week’s chart with 3,706 copies sold for the week. Unfortunately, the series’ Blu-ray will not be releasing as individual volumes, instead a full season in one shot. Therefore, it is off to a quite rough start in terms of Blu-ray sales.
It is thanks to the wonderful folks over at Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so please be sure to head over to their site here and show them lots of love! This week’s data for Blu-ray can be found here while DVD here. More info all the way at the bottom of the post.
At number 2 is Princess Connect! Re:Dive which dropped a spot after seeing a considerable plunge in number of sales. Settling for 3rd is Frozen II, it sold slightly better for the week.
Fret not! A slew of titles were released on the 19th of August, thus the period between August 17 to August 23 will definitely be a lot more exciting as titles such as 22/7, Shin Sakura Taisen the Animation, Haikyuu!!: To the Top and Show By Rock!! Mashumairesh!! have all been released. So, look forward to it. Anyways, full list is as follows:
