Go Eve no Jikan!

Show how good independent anime can be.

I'd totally love for it to somehow get licensed, though sadly I know that will probably never happen =\

Nice to know Dragonball franchise still sells well even after 22 years since anime first started.

I'd disown any ranking list that has Biohazard/Resident Evil: Degeneration at its top. Any and all data stemming from that are invalid, null and void. Laughing

Not sure why you would disown the list because of Biohazard, but keep in mind this is the middle of the month. Most new otaku anime DVDs tend to come out in the first or last week, which makes sense given most salaries are paid monthly.

It's mostly for laughs, but Biohazard was at/near tops in previous weeks' lists too ever since its release late December, so time of the month is no excuse (it has already sold over 100k copies!). Surprised

Nice to see that D.Gray-Man is still a big seller. Hope that Hoshino-sensei will get better so that she can continue the manga and possibly get more of the series animated in the future.
