Madoka Magica 1 Sells 22,000 as #1 Selling January TV Anime BD



The first Blu-ray Disc volume of the Puella Magi Madoka Magica television anime series sold about 22,000 copies on its first day on Oricon's daily Blu-ray Disc ranking chart on April 27. The volume is already the #1 selling anime Blu-ray Disc of the January television anime season. The DVD version of the same volume was #6 on Oricon's overall daily DVD ranking chart for April 26 — the day before it officially went on sale — and #7 for April 27. (On both days, the DVD for the Naruto ShippÅ«den: The Lost Tower film outsold it.)
The previous top-selling Blu-ray of the January anime season, the first Infinite Stratos volume, sold 10,000 Blu-ray Discs in its first day. Infinite Stratos #1 eventually sold 22,000 Blu-ray Discs and 7,794 DVDs in its first week.
The sales have been brisk for the first Madoka Magicavolume despite a recall that Aniplex announced on its second official day of sales. The recall applies to the limited complete edition Blu-ray and DVD as well as the regular edition DVD. There was a mistake in the dialogue of the second episode (at the timecode 29:21-29:22) on the main disc, as well as a mistake in the lyrics of the ending character song "Mata Ashita" in the limited edition's booklet. To receive replacements, customers must return just the disc (and the booklet for the limited edition) to the address listed on the website. Aniplex will begin sending the replacements in late May.

Last Exile 2 – Ginyoku no Fam 

8 years after the huge success of Last Exile, a second season has been announced, which will have a new story and new characters in the same world.



Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu 

The story centers around a boy named Akihisa Yoshii, also known as the idiot or "Baka" of the titled anime. He attends Fumizuki Academy, a school where the staff rigidly divides the students based on the results of their academic scores. At the start of the school, students are academically sorted by entrance exam test grades. The higher the grades, the higher the class, and the better the benefits. In this case, Class A is filled with the highest-scoring students; therefore, their classroom was filled with many prestigious items (air conditioners, fancy seats, laptops, a free snack bar, etc.), while the state of Class F is the complete opposite of that, representing the "bottom of the barrel" amenities.

Mayo Chiki 

Subaru is the handsome butler of one of his classmates. Due to an accident in the toilet, Sakamachi finds out “he” actually is a girl disguised as a male butler. And with that his quiet highschool life ends.



Blood-C 
 

No. 6 

Since the age of 2, Shion has been raised as an elite in the exclusive area No. 6. Now on the night of his 12th birthday, his life takes a sudden turn.


Usagi Drop 

Daikichi (Ken'ichi Matsuyama) learns that his recently deceased grandfather has an illegitimate daughter with an unknown mother. The girl's name is Rin (Mana Ashida) and she is just six years old. Everybody in Daikichi's family looks at the girl as an embarrassment and wants no part of her. Daikichi, annoyed by his family's attitude, decides to raise Rin by himself. Even though Daikichi himself has no experience raising a child and is still single ...


Nekogami Yaoyorozu

Koyama Yuzu is running an antique shop. Mayu, a cat god (nekogami), is living off Yuzu and leads an idle life playing games. Lots of other gods visit Mayu and enjoy merrymaking.

Ikoku Meiro no Croisée
 
The story takes place in the second half of the 19th century, as Japanese culture gains popularity in the West. A young Japanese girl, Yune, accompanies a French traveller, Oscar, on his journey back to France, and offers to help at the family’s ironwork shop in Paris. Oscar’s nephew and shopowner Claude reluctantly accepts to take care of Yune, and we learn how those two, who have so little in common, get to understand each other and live together in the Paris of the 1800s.
