I wonder if this means that more SAO seasons will be made (assuming there is enough source material).

Also, glad to see Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita selling this well.

O__O The numbers are mind-boggling and shocking, particularly the following titles that overcast the bottom ones:

Swort Art Online, Arcana Famiglia, Koi to Senkyo to Chocolate; Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai > Binbougami ga! , Chouyaku Hyakuninisshu: Uta Koi, Upotte!!

They tried too hard to make them look cool and the executions were handled poorly.

As for SAO, I did not expect SAO to rank that high. It is all right, but it still fails in the execution department.

Yeah, with Horizon's numbers there must be a third season on the way. Lord knows there's enough source material for at least another four cours or more. Sunrise et al. would have be f'd in the head to not greenlight more very soon. Now that both seasons have proven they sell well, why not do the third season with 26 episodes?

Glad to see Joshiraku did decent enough, I hope they'll make more of that series.

I'll be a very happy person should a third season be announced

You can safely expect to see a second season of SAO, though it could take several years. I believe there's already enough material for at least two more 2-cour seasons.

To be exact theirs enough for 3 more cours to be done (1 for the third arc and 2 for the last arc). Still its only a matter of time until aniplex greenlights it.

I'm so disappointed that Kokoro Connect is doing poorly. I understand that the whole public relations disaster is killing sales; the show itself was much better than last place. I really enjoyed it, and it's a shame that fewer people will see it because of its impending obscurity.

The other five I saw this season seem to be in about the right place, though I'm not sure how rewatchable Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita is. That's the last one I'd be getting on disc, though I would consider recommending it depending on what else a person had liked.
