Japanese Animation DVD Ranking, May 30–June 5
posted on by Egan Loo
King, Geneon, and Avex Trax rolled out their latest DVDs, but none could overcome Code Geass, which retained its #1 spot for a second week. Even the latest Negima!? television series special edition DVD with an "extracurricular lesson" from the voice actresses could only score #2, followed by another television series, Black Lagoon, at #3. Maria-sama entices buyers with a collectible box and a headband for its video spinoff, and an Initial D highlight reel collection rounds out the new entries on the chart.
