Hey, I don't know if someone mentioned it before but it seems like someone released the DVD extras including the commentary online, but no subs. If you guys want it, start searching!!

No the case.

The case that these things come in are sometimes really nice, neat and solid.

It will have cool art on it as well.

They decided to put all text label on a clear case and leave the actual package with only illustration and nothing else. Pretty nice.

Spoiler for like this:

It seems that there are a lot of noticeable differences between TV and DVD in this arc (compared to the first one), mostly due to artistic reasons.

Those all look like definite improvements to me. Sky background > building background.

Looks a bit better, fixed up some of the bad quality animation. They changed the "I love you" scene for some reason. Maybe less cluttered? I liked the way it looked before.

If you meant the background, that was for consistency, the building wasn't supposed to be seen from that angle.

DVD ranked 6th in the Oricon chart on the pre-sales day, but 1-5th are Arashi, EXILE, TVXQ, Angels & Demons and Porno Graffitti. Still a strong sales as usual, I think. The Blu-ray and DVDs also already out of stock in several places, the next schedule restock is on 30th.

Though, I would be surprise if the second volume sales isn't dropping from the first volume. There has been no 50k+ series that able to keep up first volume sales throughout all volumes.

Like I said before, it was the second arc that really pulled in the fans when many of them first considered the first arc to be slow. If anything, sales might be better than first volume.

Although the first half of ep2 brought in a some Hitagi-fans, it was really ep3 that people starting going "crazy" for her. The second arc thus, was the start of the craze. However, I still skeptical that it will increase DVD/Blu-ray sales compared to the first. It is hardly the case that "proceeding" DVDs outsell the "inital" one.

That may be the case, but you have to consider the "trial-buy" group. There's always a lot in that group, and they're always the main cause of the sales drop.

Anyway, the series ranked 8th on the sale day DVD ranking on the Oricon chart. Ranked 1-8th are roughly the same as yesterday's, but with How do you like Wednesday? new in the chart and Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahene!! stays at the 7th. Both are Japanese variety shows.

9th is the first volume of Gintama 4th year, which marked 14k sales.
