Damn. At this rate Love Live might even be able to break 250K.

I wonder if Aquors are going to be able to bring in numbers like these.

There always was some foreign animation present in the ranking, but this time it's almost completely Western one Shocked

Probably because there were pretty much no new releases this week apart from K v. 4 and Working v. 6, so there's not much that's selling more than 300 copies. Super slow week

Those tend to have a long tail, so on slow weeks even if released awhile ago, those would still show up.

1 big week, 1 medium week, rest of the month small weeks.
Pretty much how it always goes.

That's the big question right there and in my opinion, I highly doubt it. The Anime series (and movie) are so popular not only because of good songs but because of good writing and using a very good formula for the show's structure.

Not only is the new LL group going to have to come up with good songs but it's also going to need something Muse doesn't. If they just follow the same pattern that Muse did they will always play second fiddle.

Congrats on Digimon Tri. Now, Toei, make many fans happy by giving us a rebooted/retcon ending with Tai/Sora and having the remaining few movies globally (except Japan) available on Crunchyroll.
