Rokka no Yuusha vol 1 BD sales are out, and it scrounged up 551 units the first week, which is pretty hopeless. How hopeless? It's as bad as Oremonogatari.

Different anime have different business models and treating blu-ray sales like a definitive success number is deeply misleading.

Manga/LN sales and merch sales are also important, but harder to quantify (especially the latter!) so armchair analysts just ignore them.

Sounds like we need to join forces here. Give me Takeo as the 9th and definitely real this time guys seriously Brave. Yamato can be the 10th as the Saint of Baked Goods. Or put Adlet and Flamie as a couple into Ore Monogatari as annoying kids who think they have superpowers but don't. ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:Ezra's armor includes a bunny girl outfit, a maid outfit, and so forth. Not that it matters cause Mashima keeps going back to the boob bandages. Her strongest outfit definitely shouldn't be boob bandages and a big ol' sword though, that's just silly. Why do you bother collecting a million outfits and spamming swords like Nashetania if that's how you fight at your best? But enough about things that will never be commercial successes, like Fairy Tail, and lets talk more about real powerhouses like Rokka!

Disregarding the lovely future LN volumes, this anime was really fun to watch. And that's what I can take from it.

Rokka is getting a disk release by Ponycan US. If you aren't familiar with these guys, they put out shows in 4 episode volumes with a full retail price of $90, helpfully discounted to $72 on Right Stuf.

Went into this series expecting big battles against demons and adversity in a hostile land (A bit like what if LOTR didn't have the fellowship dissolve before reaching Mordor). Somehow ended up with a weird-rear end whodunit story, with a romance side-plot. I wasn't particularly upset with the reveal as to the culprit; focusing on Nashetania's(sp?) relationship with Adlet early on and portraying her as the main heroine only to turn it around on us has been done before but still surprises just due to the amount of shows that don't like to throw the viewer a curve. That said ending it by saying "CONGRATULATIONS ON FINDING THE FAKE oh now there's another fake" felt lame. Just my opinion though.

I'm 100% with you on this one, Khy. I looked the show up on Wikipedia, and it appears to never get any better. The rabbit hole just gets deeper and deeper. I finally dropped it, way too late in my opinion, at about episode 10 or so.

Fun fact, in the second volume, in the very first paragraph, on the second or third line, they reveal who the second fake is. It's a non-mystery if you're reading the series. In any case I liked the mystery focus of the show and it ended up being far more memorable than it would've been if it went for a straightforward based-on-first-impressions handling of the story. If you just came for that though I guess I see why you wouldn't like it. But it's a hell of a lot more memorable as a mystery show.
