Pretty much all of the new titles (expected to top the chart) releasing the week between July 27 to August 2 are on the week’s list with Stike the Blood IV OVA taking the top spot with 7,522 copies sold in its first week. This is followed by Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T at 5,029 copies while Ishuzoku Reviewers settles for 3rd, at 4,590 copies. Both Toaru Kagaku no Railgun T and Ishuzoku Reviewers showed a slight increase over their previous volumes debut – 4,543 copies and 4,281 copies respectively.
Remember! That it is thanks to Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so please pay them a visit here and show them lots of love! For data on copies of Anime Blu-rays and DVDs sold, they can all be found here and here. More info, all the way down in the post.
Despite the heavy representations of new Anime in the DVD section, sales remain lackluster. You will find a slew of new Anime making into both charts, but they did not perform as well as many of us may have hoped for the week. Only a handful made into the top Blu-rays and DVDs sold nationwide Japan. For upcoming releases for the week between August 3 to August 9, you can head over to the sites listed down below – all the way down the post. The week will see titles such as Princess Connect! Re:Dive, Arte and Magia Record: Mahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica Gaiden releasing, and I am pretty sure Princess Connect! Re:Dive will be in the chart, and am expecting it to do well.
