I didn't.

All I said was that it "make up for that by selling more than double the total sales".

I never said anything about which is better or worse.

In fact, the original topic you raised was who made the more money.

So did the price of the Monogatari novels make up for the 14 million books sold?

Don't you remember the Hidan no Aria website saying crap like 2 million sold when the anime started and Oricon had volume 1 at like 90k....
By all means, use the total number of books shipped by the monogatari series then.

Otherwise, I'll be happy if you could provide a more accurate figure for the sales of both series.
