A ranking of the best selling anime series of 2010 seems to bear out the notion that only moe and sex sells anime.
The ranking, from Rank Ohkoku:
1. K-ON!!
2. A Certain Scientific Railgun
3. Bakemonogatari
4. Working!!
5. Angel Beats!
6. Hidamari Sketch ***
7. Seikon no Qwaser
8. Shin Koihime Musou
9. Ikki Tousen Xtreme Xecutor
10. GA Art Design Class
The ranking apparently only covers DVD sales (and not Blu-ray), which became a minority during 2010, so this may skew the results somewhat.
Not being a TV anime it is not included in this list, but the disc edition of the Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya is already confirmed as just under 100,000 copies, an impressive showing and probably some sort of record.
The ranking itself seems to be easily summarised – moe, slice of life and ero.
“Type A” anime fans are apparently just too stingy to support any of the series they proclaim the superiority of…

One of the most Informative anime I've ever watched :3
All Hail "Type B" !!!
LOL and here comes the K-ON!/moe-haters and real/fake Type-A otakus!
Glad that Railgun, Hidamari Sketch, GA, Seikon no Qwaser, Angel Beats!, and Mosou made it to the list.
Ah screw moe-haters and Type A otakus! They should be at least happy that some of their fav anime shows are on the list (I think).
While people claim to be Type A only, research suggests that from their perfect knowledge of Yosuga no Sora, they are more likely:
TYPE A BY DAY, TYPE B BY NIGHT
It's better to be a Type AB otaku than being just a Type A or Type B otaku. Why only watch plot-driven animes or fanservice-filled ones when you can watch both?
Well I spent over 200 I don't really have to spend on series on Rightstuf for Christmas. Granted I'm supporting series that are about 5 years old because I'm playing an endless game of catch up, but still...
I think now all we need is a hentai series that is like Hidamari Sketch and they'll have created the most relaxing porn in existence. That shit'll sell for eternity for reasons nobody would understand.
I approve of 2-5, A Certain Scientific Railgun, Bakemonogatari, Working!!, Angel Beats!
I'll sit on the fence here, since I'm AB type, IRL too.
Bakemonogatari and Seikon No Qwaser can be considered Type AB shows btw.
Usually animes that the ''Type A'' of fans likes are not focused so much on DVD and BD sales, these usually are the source of income only for those niche marketed shows (moe and yaoi for example). Instead of that they are more focused in the mainstream, that don't buy much anime on DVD (except Ghibli and Disney movies), the mainstream prefer make their source of income in TV ratings, selling of products based on the titles (mangas or toys for example) and the selling of rights to show the anime at overseas.
Please Artefact, do some research before you post the first thing that cross your mind...
Type A abandoned anime. The industy abused the anime boom and put out a bunch of horseshit so type A are gone. It'll be years before they're won back.
But is there a type O where there is hate for neither A nor B?
I cheered when I saw GA Art Design Class in that list. Such a cute and funny comedy. I hope they make more episodes.
Hitotsu Hitotsu Hitotsu Hitotsu ~
put me down for type: A+B please thanks
God... Qwaser was so bad. It was so bad it was almost good.
“Type A” anime fans are apparently just too stingy to support any of the series they proclaim the superiority of…"
No, they are not too stingy.
They simply don't exist.
Most of these teen-complex suffering wannabe-intellectuals are just trolls.
"Most of these teen-complex suffering wannabe-intellectuals are just trolls."
Agree to that, most likely they're equivalent to a 14yo boy who enjoy boasting around his friends about getting laid for the first time.
Yep, if you don't like K-on you're a bastard troll who needs to be castrated and dick slapped to death by Artefact.
Yep, if you don't like moefanservicero you don't like anime....
needs more yuri
Nothing bad with that ranking, except Ikkitousen XX an Qwaser. They were quite a disappointment, only the boobies saved them...
Die you ronery Type B scum. Just die and end your obsession with moe and 2D "girlfriends". Maybe then Anime will start being worth watching again...
Preach it.
Though if "type b" otaku didn't but anime the anime industry might get screwed, maybe.
im glad K-ON!!, Qwaser, Bakemonogatari, Angel beats,and Working :D
did EVA 2.0 made it this year? also no Amagami SS? what the hell?
if this was blu ray things would be very different
This is why that Tokyo law is gonna ruin the anime industry. The top selling animes won't be sold anymore, hurting the overall profit of the industry. Even if you're a "Type A" anime fan, the industry going through tough financial times isn't something you'd want.
8 out of 10 here. :)
A little sad to see that 5 out of those 10 would probably not get pass the ban.
Which 5 do you mean? Only ones I see in trouble would be Seikon no Qwaser, Shin Koihime Musou and Ikki Tousen Xtreme Xecutor
2. A Certain Scientific Railgun
3. Bakemonogatari
7. Seikon no Qwaser
8. Shin Koihime Musou
9. Ikki Tousen Xtreme Xecutor
All have young characters in ecchi situations
Type A or type B, it doesn't matter. As long as it isn't God awful I'll watch it.
So does this mean the best anime to ever be created will combine moe, slice of life, and ero?
Koe de Oshigoto?
No, that's only fap material, really.
It will be forgotten like Aki-Sora and the other borderline-hentai OVAs...
Thank you for your opinion, but it's misplaced in a reply to my comment.
I contributed to K-ON's victory. And I'm proud of it. As a result, I can no longer afford the second season BD collection.
Angel Beats! is not moe, slice of life or ero. It's action, seinen and drama.
Thanks for posting the top 10 moe and ero anime. Now I know what I'm supposed to watch out of what came out this year.
Gina G.A. is getting the recognition it deserves.
*FINALLY.
No idea how it became "gina"
"'Type A' anime fans are apparently just too stingy to support any of the series they proclaim the superiority of…"
That's a stupid remark, Artefact.
Many shit products are painstakingly designed to appeal to the masses of losers that populate Japan. Besides moe slice of life faggotry, you need look no further than the Wii and DS, and their massive catalogs of stinking mini-games, non-games and random language, math and sudoku apps.
As Japan's culture nosedives itself into the deepest darkness of oblivion, the good shit it is still capable of producing goes more and more unnoticed by the retarded, tasteless masses.
It'll only get worse over time.
I wonder if they'll be able to stop that on time and have enough life left in them for a comeback...
And again it is possible to directly relate your fav anime showing up in the ranking with your own penissize. I always wonder how people can be that way. "If others like what I like, my taste must be superior to the peoples taste that like other anime than me and the majority". wtf?
"Hidamari Sketch ***"
That's damn lazy.
All resume to this:
quantity, not quality.
Lets predict the future for next year...
No 1 anime girl : Akiyama Mio
and so on...
Pfft, K-ON will be easily forgotten as new moe shows fill its time slot. The fans are shallow and fickle.
lol, nice try. casual anime fans will keep k-on alive for years to come
all hail Hidamari Sketch and GA! they are awesome!
There are only three on that list that I know and have watched. Those would be K-On!!, A Certain Scientific Railgun, and Angel Beats. I may have watched K-On!! but I don't believe that it was the best thing that I have ever seen. I think this list full of fail.
