Anime DVD/BD Sales in Japan

As expected, we’re paying for the higher than usual across the board week last week with a low week this time around.

Spring update:
Granblue v1 adds 231 DVDs, total 52,106.
v2 adds 520/466, total 37,214.

Deremas Gekijou v1 adds 282/212, total 42,464. That was a sudden drop-off, from 8762 wk2 to 494 wk3.

Bandori v1 adds 299 BDs, total 7,657.

Winter update:
Rakugo s2 sells 1131/174, total 1,305. One-shot release, so Series Average: 1,305.

Seiren v3 sells 750 BDs, DVDs do not rank.

Konosuba s2 v3 adds 184 BDs, total 8,885. Next two volumes need essentially zero drop from this level to hold onto the 10k average.

Chururan adds 101, total 789. One-shot, so Series Average: 789. It’s silly to make much of a sub-1k show but ranking 3 times and selling 2.5x your wk1 sales when you started at 332 is really rare.

 
Past seasons:
YOI v5 adds 230/117, total 59,674.
v6, final volume, adds 611/332, total 75,925. This is where the slowness of this week is most evident, because this is the smallest wk3 of any volume of the show. Series average: 67,458. Officially moves into #4 since 2000.

Utapri s4 v5 adds 177 BDs, total 17,333.
v6, final volume, adds 782/481, total 21,320. Series average: 28,393.

Jojo Pt4 v12 adds 256 BDs, total 6,811.

 
OVAs, Movies, Boxsets etc:
Zaregoto v6 adds 752/241, total 13,586.

Haifuri OVA adds 247 BDs, total 12,784.

Strike the Blood II OVA v4, final volume, adds 218 BDs, total 9,576. Series average: 9,414.

Mahouka BD Box adds 189, total 5,441.
