Those are some sales for Bungo Stray Dogs, combined with the DVD sales that is brilliant.

I don't recall the series ever reaching those numbers (unless I'm mistaken) but either way it's good to see and long may it continue.

Also is this the first time these Detective Conan films are being released on Blu Ray? A lot of Detective Conan in one week. I've seen em mass release reprints in manga (Slam Dunk) but no so in films like this so new to me.

Movies typically sell more than TV series because you're getting a lot more animation on one disc than normal. 90 minutes for Dead Apple for instance. Whereas you'd usually get 2-3 episodes of the TV anime per disc which is ~45-65 minutes for the same price. The only movies that sometime sell worse are compilation movies.

I suppose that does make sense and I've never really thought of it that way strangely enough. Thanks.
