2017 Mid-year Ranking by Volume
• The source for all the following data is here: https://pastebin.com/UgNXWBAs
• This covers the week of 2015/12/12 (12/26付) through the week of 2017/06/05 (12/19付).
• If the release is one I track, the amounts added over the last known number in parentheses.
• (n/a) means we have data that is more recent than or equal to what the yearly list has as of its cutoff, so there’s either nothing to add, or the current number is higher than the one listed here.
• The first number is the ranking within the Animation category, the second is among all discs.
• Some of the additions below have zero affect on the series’ average, because we already had more recent data that what is covered here.

If this is mid year, what is the chance of YOI maintaining the number one spot on the full year ranking? Is it guaranteed?
Yes, easily. No show this year will sell anywhere near YOI’s numbers and all of YOI’s volumes fall within the 2017 data so there would be no way for anything else to top it.
I hope that the sudden slowdown simply indicates that the fans bought early, and not that interest has evaporated. I also hope that the series’ success will have a positive effect on the industry, but I’m not sure how sales factor into that.
I wouldn’t call a slowdown now “interest evaporating”. What’s unusual is how long it sold in the first place. It’s not normal to sell a meaningful number of discs a month after your last volume comes out.
“I also hope that the series’ success will have a positive effect on the industry”
Will it have positive effect on YOI’s production committee’s payouts? Likely yes.
Will it have positive effect on fujoshi titles (as in actual yaoi bait titles)? Likely yes, we’ll probably see a few more titles animated than we’d have without it, because more producers might think that it’s time to strike the iron while it’s hot.
Will it have positive effect on the industry (as in people working on the actual anime, animators, etc)? No, not at all. That’s something animators have to work on themselves. No matter how much sales the fans make, production committees and producers can always pay animators whatever they want (or rather however little they want), unless the animators stand up for themselves.
damn Macross Delta was so close!
glad everything got a big boost.
So Macross could hit 10K with the yearly sales, nice!
If it makes it, definitely, but it’ll be pretty close to the cutoff. Last year the per-series ranking cut off at 53,959, which is just above Delta’s mid-year number. I can see it maybe slipping in at #30 of 30 but it depends what the rest of this year looks like.
With apologies to Mikumo and Freyja it will be giri giri 10K ikenai borderline…
Haha!
Delta is not my favorite Macross installment but I hope it crosses the line, too. Hopefully the next one will do better (and be better, though there were things I liked about Delta, most notably Freyja).
Re;zero legs are impressive. Strike the blood OVA’s sure did well.
Also nice increase for natsume.
Good sales for Re:zero
A few more lists came out that added a bit more info. Not much changed with averages though, as anything in the per-series ranking already included the additional per-volume additions. Just shifts where the data comes from.
