News Japanese Animation DVD Ranking, July 24–30
posted on 2008-08-02 15:33 EDT
The sales of the top four anime DVDs were high enough to rank them in the overall DVD charts. Among all DVDs sold during the week, Kara no Kyōkai - the Garden of sinners Tsūkaku Zanryū was #1, Mobile Suit Gundam 00 volume 7 was #4, Macross Frontier volume 1 was #7, and Gintama season 2's volume 13 was #10. Macross Frontier volume 1 was also the #1 selling Blu-ray Disc release as it set a record for one-week sales. Macross Frontier volume 1 actually sold more copies on Blu-ray Disc (22,000 copies) than it did on DVD (18,000) copies — the first release to achieve that feat.

Pokémon the Movie: Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice Dub.DVDIf this film causes more permanent damage than most Pokémon outings, that's wholly the fault of its main character, Keldeo.
Blood-C BD+DVD
... either one of the most brilliantly shocking horror series ever created, or one of the biggest practical jokes ever played on an anime-viewing audience.
Mikunopolis in Los Angeles Blu-Ray
The lively music, flashy visuals, and digitally-generated performers result in a form of entertainment unlike any other.
Berserk: The Golden Age Arc II: The Battle for Doldrey
On the whole, The Battle for Doldrey is a mixed bag of strengths and weaknesses. While that may be true of most things, there are few places where those lines are so clearly drawn as in this film.

InuYasha Movie Blu-ray Complete Collection
Four movies, all so rigidly formulaic that they could be sequential remakes. This is an entertaining set all told, but you can get the same experience (or better) by watching the first film four times.
K-ON! The Movie Blu-Ray
The movie finishes what the TV series began, with a story that goes beyond a typical episode, but stops short of being an epic, life-changing experience.
Fushigi Yûgi: Genbu Kaiden GN 9Reading at the best of times is like being transported to another world, and in that this manga succeeds spectacularly. And although the inevitable end is undeniably on the horizon, you will not ever want to leave Genbu's land.
