I may be wrong, but I think you misread his comment as meaning to say Geass sales would be higher than Macross sales? I'm fairly certain he meant to say that both series' sales would be significantly higher with Blu-Ray sales included, with Geass being "60% higher" than the numbers shown here. I'm in no position to be certain if that number is accurate, but I do recall seeing talk that for Vol. 1, Macross Blu Ray sales did exceed DVD sales. That may not be true, however.

How is Geass 60% higher adding blueray sales? Has any geass blueray reached a #1 ranking like the all the Frontier ones?

I wouldn't be surprised if after adding Blueray sales Frontier is equal if not higher to Geass R2.

>Code Geass and Macross figures are still quite inaccurate without their Blu Ray sales included

Yeah I've been wondering about that, too.
Macross total numbers may be twice that or more.
Geass is probably like 60% higher.

>>By the way, wasn’t Yamamoto the one who said that his goal with Kannagi was to beat Clannad?

Considering that the people who left KyotoAnime are the ones behind Kannagi... Then again; compared to a dragon, they're merely crunchy and good with ketchup.

Here's a tip though: Dragons are a simple combination of meat and luggage. So, with enough people, you can conquer it.

>>Good to see the good animes get the good sales.

(Laughing...) No.

It just means that everyone loves overrated crap.

Strike Witches is phenomenal! It managed to hang on while Kanagi didn't.

Sanya overslept of course.

I wonder when Oricon will start tracking Blu Ray sales, as Code Geass and Macross figures are still quite inaccurate without their Blu Ray sales included.

On a related note, I still can't believe Sanya lost in the Fakku.net Strike Witches battle (Erica won).

Obviously it must've been a full moon, or Beako is bringing about the end of the world, or something.
