Riportiamo la classifica delle vendite per i titoli DVD anime e non solo in Giappone secondo le rilevazioni fatte dall’autorevole sito Oricon. La classifica è interessante in quanto ci permette di fare delle previsioni su quali titoli potrebbero essere acquistati e portati in Italia e a dimostrazione di ciò basta vedere i titoli presenti in classifica per rendersi conto che una buona parte sono già arrivati. I dati si riferiscono al periodo che va dal 2 all’8 Maggio 2016.
