Do you think they will ever bring Legend of the Galactic Heroes over to English speaking territories. or has that ship long sailed out of port. I know that back in the day is not feasible to release since it only had 1 episode a month and you get long gaps between release. But would it be so hard now to license it and, slap some subs on if dubbing is not an option and release it as a few boxsets.

I wonder how many copies Barakamon volume 1 sold. Seems like it only made it into the top 20 for a week. Barakamon volume 2 outsold volume 1 by 170.

If it floats around 3.5-4k, that'd be nice.

It sold 7.2k copies at minimum.

And with that strong showing by Hanamonogatari, the Monogatari Second Season has averaged 40k+ per volume. I am happy that Monogatari continues to have that staying power 5 years after Bakemonogatari aired. I know that the rest of the novels have been green lit to be animated, but these numbers cement that decision.

18k combined is a very strong number, but I am surprised SAO II's volume 1 did not sell around 30k. Guess that means SAO II could have a hard time averaging 15k for all volumes. That would be a big drop from the 35k averaged by the first season.
