Vol 1 did I think. If you look at it by average, Bakemono is still #1 in sales at 79k average per volume, 8k over Madoka.
From what I know, it's inspired by the manga and previous two anime series (one from the 60s, another from the 80s), though it's not directly adapted from any manga.
Nope. It was just a very consistent 70-80k seller. Highest was Vol4 which sold close to 84k.

Serial Experiments Lain 2
Nope. Still don't really know what's going on. Maybe Lain is on that "I see dead people" state of mind or something. I don't know.
This show also has a pretty creepy vibe going on. It's not scary or horror-like or anything, though. Just creepy.

Love Live season 2 vol. 1 sold 116,896 copies. I think Osomatsu-san vol. 1 is second to that.
It's a quasi-sequel to Osomatsu-kun, a gag manga from the 1960s. The Osomatsu siblings were 10 in Osomatsu-kun; Osomatsu-san is set 10 years later with them grown up. The anime was made to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the birth of mangaka Fujio Akatsuka, also famous for Tensai Bakabon and Himitsu no Akko-chan. There are references to the original manga in Osomatsu-san, but it's essentially anime-original.
I'm sure the producers were hoping this would be popular among fujoshi, but this level of success must be beyond their wildest dreams.

Unless I am remembering, Osomatsu started as a 1 cour show but quickly got extended. As in, it wasn't planned that way originally and more episodes were ordered.
In any case there's like zero chance that Osomatsu won't get more episodes at some point.

The length of Osomatsu-san wasn't announced when it started, but it must have been planned as a 2-cour show. You can't change plans that quickly.
Huge drop after that though. Other than the 70k final volume, the rest didn't even crack 60k each.

My mistake then.

Of course. Osomatsu-san will likely have a large drop too - event tickets make a big difference in these things - though it'll still be a commercial success by any measure.

didn't realize another regular was going through gintama. How are you liking it Jarmel?
I still don't know who Mr. Bushido is.
He's a Samurai Boy.
Been fine. I've really liked the Shinsengumi arcs so far and I feel the show has largely gotten better as it has progressed. There was a two-part Yakuza arc that I thought was really bad (107-108?) though.

Their designs are kind of lacking. But nice.

why do they need to put sample on the image? Are people printing their own body pillows?

Rosario + Vampire ep.7
So, we finally meet the last harem member, this one an ice chick. Another silly episode ending in lustful and playfull bloodsucking, lol. The show hasn't been half bad so far.

The only thing I know about rugby is that Ross played it once.
And it nearly killed him.
And it nearly killed him.
It's kill or be killed.
I don't think kicking someone is a legal move in rugby...

I don't think soccer fields are nearly as big as anime makes them seem either, but they find a way
Point made. XD
well its a sport played mostly by rapists & wife beaters
It's about setting an example. Kill one to warn a hundred.
Rugby: Gotta show 'em who's Boss of this gym.
Been saying that for a while. I guess we need for india to develop an animation industry.

Well, I just finished Naruto Shipuuden episode 426 and threw up in my mouth a little bit. I thought the anime was complete though and caught up with the manga? Guess not. But after what has been going on, I honest to god don't know if I want to watch the ending. I mean...I've made it this damn far. But shit, I might as well wikipedia the ending because this has been atrocious.
I think I'm going to jump into some earlier recommendations. I've never seen the original Fafner, but was always interested. Based on that pretty amazing compliment it received here for it's AotY nomination, I think I'll start and watch them all.

Assistant director Toshiyuki Kato has been doing some great work in this show. His first episode was excellently atmospheric, and this episode has a lot of unusual and striking layouts. The fight between Leorio and Tonpa was particularly well animated. It's interesting to see that Kato has gone on to now be the series director for the upcoming Diamond is Unbreakable anime.
