The rate of the sales(%)
The rate that is arrived from the comparison of the volumes of the sales between October and September. It is not an increase rate but the comparison rate.
If the same volumes as the last month were sold, the value is “100%”.

The line up of this season has a high level. I am happy everyday. lol
Because recently the frame to broadcast anime was reduced, I am more glad to this prosperity.

However, the manga “Ika musume” come to the not so higher place in the chart of the manga sales. It means…Am I better not to say such a negative view?

Well,…because talking about “the sales before the anime started” makes us sad, I want to think the manga “Ika musume” was a shortage of stock because it didn’t need additional printing before the anime started.
