Japan Top Weekly Anime Blu-ray and DVD Ranking: May 10, 2021 ~ May 16, 2021

The drought continues on for Anime Blu-rays and DVDs for the week between May 10 to May 16 due to the lack of new releases. Nevertheless, the week performed a tad bit better than the one before with the entrance of Azur Lane: Bisoku Zenshin! which tops the chart at 4,107 copies sold. Love Live! Nijigasaki Gakuen School Idol Doukoukai‘s Volume 5 too witnessed better sales week-on-week from the 1,056 copies it sold the week before to 1,164 copies. Yet, this is not enough for the volume to hit above 20,000 copies sold. The fifth volume’s three-week sales remain the lowest, with 19,154 copies sold thus far.

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 lots of love! Plus, all the data you find below is accessible via Oricon here (Blu-ray) and here (DVD).

I made a mistake when I mentioned that Hypnosis Mic: Division Rap Battle – Rhyme Anima will make an appearance for the week when it was the soundtrack that was released. Expect the following week, May 17 to May 23, to have more releases making their ways onto the chart. The week will see the following titles coming out: Show by Rock!! Stars!! Volume 2, 5-toubun no Hanayome ∬ Volume 3, A3 Volume 8 and Hypnosis Mic: Division Rap Battle – Rhyme Anima Volume 5.
