These are bad numbers, especially Shikabane Hime, no wonder they did the DVD only episode, the DVDs don't sell at all.

I guess the main reason for the bad sales of Shikabane Hime is that they assigned the main role to a gravure idol. However, another gravure idol was assigned to the main of Aoi Hana.

I really doubt any female VA would've made it sell more than it did....

Maybe I don't look at dvd sales too often on here, but those numbers seem much lower than they normally are... Maybe I'm crazy.

As I explained many times, it's normal for the ranking in the middle of the month. If you look through the ranking for four weeks, you'll see there are "hot" weeks and "dull" weeks.

I enjoy watching people's favorites. Recommend your favorite show to me, even if I have it dropped/on hold.

it's interesting to see that ghibli stuff is so consistent. i can't say i'm surprised, but you'd think every home in japan had two copies of each movie by now.
