Oops typo, U nebtr budget does not matter. I don't know how I messed that up.

Also disappointed with the numbers for Durarara!!x2, but not really surprised.

If you are talking R1, it should be released. People have been asking for it since it aired.

It was an OK show, but not enough to pass shows like Shirobako or Gekkan Shōjo Nozaki-kun, IMO.

It is nice to see that those shows manage to move a significant number of copies. I liked all of them quite a bit.

Well, well, well. Look who still draws and audience.

I'm enjoying the show quite a bit, and while there are some quality issues, I find the overall plot and pace to make up for it.

Although those shows didn't do real justice to their respective source materials, they still were reasonably OK, with a mediocre-level plot and pace, and they tried to take an interesting art style. |
I'm actually quite surprised (and pleasantly so for some of them) that they all pushed those kinds of units. I would have expected sub-1.5k at the highest for them, if not dipping below 1k for some, so to see so many 2k+ sales is very nice to see.
I wasn't sure YliA would have been embraced by enough people, but I'm glad to see otherwise—same with CROSS ANGE. given everything about it. Like the latter, I did not think so many of those shows would have been hits, but they have been and most of them have garnered good reviews, as well. Pretty good week for the anime industry.
As for DRRR!!x2's animation quality, I hasn't been much of a letdown, personally, but it is also best to keep in mind that an all-new studio is doing it, not Brains Base. I would never hold it to them to perfectly carry over BB's level of quality, particularly when it's not a co-production (a la the new TROYCA's ALDNOAH.ZERO. with A-1 Pictures). Shuka's not doing too shabby, all things considered…

Yep, region one...something that'll give me english subs.
But, what makes you say it should be released? Hasn't been touched by any licensing company in the west, and I see nothing that indicates that changing.
