Well I could just as easily have mentioned involvement of manchildren, but I think the bulk of K-ON!'s success lies in selling life goods. Also, middle/highschool students in Japan aren't so poor that they couldn't afford anime discs. I'd also assert that most anime otaku are the most naive to buy into the belief that true otaku buy Blu-rays of their favorite shows when they're still young.
