A hurricane at the time affected things, some stores didn't have the book.

Rumors circulated on 4chan, that some trucks carrying books were stolen, it must also have influenced the decline in sales.

That's enough 'concerned' posting out of you, it's getting annoying when I see this for every other thread.

And if you really want to make up for the difference, go buy the localized translation of Index Vol. 1 or something.

It should be out this month right?

On the 18th, yeah.

And yeah all this talk of the 'old Kamachi' from LG is getting to be a bit too much.

Oh, thank you for the clarification... and also... I don't mind getting updates from LG. He's allowed to express his own opinion, you know...

Allfictions did say before that we kind of badmouth any criticism against Kamachi without good reason, but LG is at least saying that he loved what Kamachi did before, which isn't exactly badmouthing him... it's more like complaining about the current writing style... which is far more understandable... at least for me.

Either way, I still appreciate getting the novel updates... I look at them every week...

On the other hand, knowing about the hurricane and the stolen trucks explains things. I was just assuming that the drop from NT 10 signified people who were dropping this because they lost faith in Index III, while the rest of the readers recognize the novels are amazing anyway, and therefore don't care even if Index III doesn't ever come out.

Sure it is understandable much to my disagreement. That's not the point though. He has to say it everytime in nearly every thread is the important part. This isn't even the thread for that. There is a limit to that. It's basically just: I know how you feel. You've said that 80 times already in 6 different threads. Stop repeating your self now.

Quite frankly these kinds of 'opinions' are nothing more than just snide remarks.

Moving along, the hurricane just seems like really bad luck, but regardless I still think it would pick back up over the next few weeks even if it doesn't register on Oricon. And if the off chance that it still drops for next volume *shrugged*

16. *3,458 146,146 Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index Vol.11

Likely its final week in charts. I'm interested to see the 2nd Half of 2014 chart for preceding volumes if we get one next month for rest of year 2014.
