I can only hope DRRR!!'s continued good performance in paperback results in a sequel anime; and if that does happen I hope Brains Base is wise enough to cover another block of three novels in it, because that worked well last time.

Just goes to show you: pervy Japanese sararimen wouldn't read a business strategy book unless it involves a high school skirt! No wonder China is now the #2 economy in the world! Laughing

I hope the Durarara DVD's sell well here, so that we can get the novels eventually.

And just goes to show you, that you have absolutely no idea what the heck you are talking about.

Oh, I know what the book's about. Most of the buyers are males too, like the makers intentioned. Laughing

You meant to write, "almost half the buyers are female", but it's not like I linked you to an article that said exactly that.

What I meant to write was around 1000% more sararimen are reading about Drucker because there's a high school skirt in it. The publisher definitely knows what their pervy market likes. Laughing

Took the words right outta my mouth, mate.

Also: If the novels keep doing well, I hope someone here *cough* Yen *cough* licenses it so I can own it legally and support the series more! (Already laid plans to own the box set once it hits)
