Anime Sales in Japan - 2012

[something]

2011 Yearly Vol 1 Rankings
Note: This list is incomplete. Not all Fall 2011 shows have been released, and those that have may continue to chart for weeks to come. I may or may not keep this list up to date on a weekly basis, but the individual season posts will stay updated. This will at the least be updated once all 2011 Vol 1s stop ranking regularly.

[●] - Only one of the two formats (generally BD) ranked. Numbers incomplete.
##,###/##,### - First number in italicized purple indicates that total includes estimates of DVDs based on >100 ranking lists or other sources. Generally only included if believed accurate within 100 copies.

Note: The iDOLM@STER is listed twice due to the wide range (7,627-23,315) of potential sales. It is impossible to determine what percentage of G4U sales can be attributed primarily to the anime BD.
