The number one seller with 624815 copies is "My Youth Love Story Really Has a Problem". At present, the second season of the TV animation of the work is also in full swing, and the more exquisite painting and the more tangled emotions of the characters also add more highlights to the animation.

The second place is Long Aotian in the Japanese light realm - "The Inferior Student of the Magic Science University". The animation can be said to have added a lot of exposure to the work, and the image of the taciturn actor Si Bo Da Ye and the ultimate brother Si Bo Shenxue is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The fact that this work is now able to get such a high ranking also shows the reader's preference in a sense.

As for the third place, it is "Is Seeking Encounters in the Dungeon Wrong", which has just launched a TV anime.

The "Naruto Secret Story" series is ranked fourth, and as a work based on the super popular original manga, its inclusion on the list is somewhat a testament to the variety of light novel genres. And "Sword Art Online Progressive" ranked fifth.

Japan pays close attention to the domestic hit of the theatrical version of "Doraemon".

On May 28, 2015, the animated theatrical version of "Doraemon Walks with Me" was officially released in Chinese mainland. This is also the first time that a Japanese film has entered the domestic market after three years. At present, the box office has exceeded the 200 million yuan mark early, which has also aroused great attention from the Japanese side.

Japanese media reported as follows:

Due to the deterioration of relations between China and Japan over the territorial issue over the Diaoyu Islands, China has not shown a Japanese film since the theatrical version of "Ultraman" was released in 2012. The first work to be released in three years is the theatrical version of "Doraemon", which is also very popular in China. On the first day of release alone, the work got off to a good start with 20 million yuan (about 400 million yen).

For this reason, the reporter also interviewed a lot of viewers. They all said, "I want to see it, I want to see it", "We all came to see it together", and "I still remember it." This is a work I saw in my childhood" "We don't need Chinese dubbing to ruin the three views, we just have to listen to Japanese" and other voices.

By June 1, 2015, the work had earned 237 million yuan (about 4.75 billion yen), which is also the highest-grossing Japanese work in Chinese mainland. The previous record was held by the Ultraman series in 2011, but the box office at that time was only 31.15 million yuan (about 620 million yen), which is not at all on the same order of magnitude as "Doraemon Walks with Me".

Moreover, after its release on May 28, it received 85 million yuan (about 1.7 billion yen) on May 30 and 88 million yuan (about 1.76 billion yen) on the 31st, and the results of these two days exceeded the previous record of 67 million yuan held by "Kung Fu Panda 2" in a single day, becoming the highest-grossing animated film in Chinese mainland in a single day.

In this regard, some industry analysts pointed out that the popularity of the theatrical version of "Doraemon" may also indicate the improvement of Sino-Japanese relations, and with the success of this work, more Japanese theatrical versions may be seen in Chinese mainland in the future.

The original manga of "Detective Conan" will be closed again

According to the information provided by the sneaking pictures, the official said that the next serialization will be in "early summer". But now that both China and Japan have entered the early summer, maybe you won't have to wait long to see the Grim Reaper's elementary school students again, right?

But for this suspension, netizens complained again: "Are you going to play ship women again?" "Yoshihiro Fujian smiled and said nothing" "I really can't see the end of Conan in my lifetime." And once the work resumes serialization, Tencent Animation will also send a report as soon as possible.
