Japan's Animation Blu-ray Disc Ranking, December 28-January 3
posted on by Egan Loo
The Yui Horie Clips 2 video collection debuted at #2 on SoundScan Japan's chart for all Blu-ray Discs. The Nana Mizuki Live Diamond x Fever concert video dropped to #4; it had actually debuted at #1 the week earlier, but SoundScan Japan's chart was not published that week due to the year-end holidays.
Rookies ~Sotsugyō-, the live-action film feature based on Masanori Morita's Rookies baseball manga, rose from #24 to #16 in its fifth week. Michael Bay's live-action Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen film also rose back from #2 to #1 in its third week.

Neither firm directly posts more data for weekly sales than what is listed here. Any purportedly additional data comes from unverifiable, anonymous sources.]
