Sales have gotten a lot better for both Blu-rays and DVDs of Anime sold in Japan as it approaches the end of June, though for the previous week, ten Anime managed to get into the Top 20 Blu-rays sold in Japan. The figure is down by one for the week between June 22 to June 28 according to Oricon’s latest Blu-ray chart here, but the number of copies of Anime Blu-rays sold have improved considerably due to the releases of new volumes and titles.
Kimetsu no Yaiba’s eleventh volume tops the week’s chart, however it performed a little weaker than volume 10 which debuted at 9,900 copies sold. Together with its DVDs, the title has sold nearly 14,000 copies for the week. Following closely behind is GRANBLUE FANTASY which saw better sales than its fifth volume while at number 3 is Fate/Grand Order, like GRANBLUE FANTASY, the fifth volume of the title marks an improvement over the last one.
It is thanks to Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so be sure to head over to Oricon here and show them lots of love! You can find the DVD chart here.
Apart from the three titles mentioned above, there are five new titles in the week’s list bringing a total of eight new volumes or titles breaching the week’s chart. Some of the titles you may want to take note of is Otome Game no Hametsu Flag shika Nai Akuyaku Reijou ni Tensei shiteshimatta… (No. 4) and Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai?: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen (No. 8).
