I'm glad its doing better than expected, definitely one of my most liked anime of the last 10-15 years. Hopefully we see more good stuff from them.

They really underestimated the demand for it.

I recall some claims that the streaming viewership was far from stellar. That would certainly explain the low expectations. But, since the show is so good, I certainly wouldn't be surprised if a higher percentage of streaming viewers than usual decided to pick up the BD.

Got my copy ordered since I'm not sure if it'll become available again in the future (especially with all that swag) and since it will have English subtitles.

Really surprised how well this did given it was kind of unconventional and an anime original at that.

Glad it was able to outperform its original goal. And definitely deserves some proper recognition/reward/revenue.

I just want the eraser.
