So you're telling me that if I ever want you to read anything, I'll need to mail you my copies? :P

A lot of short season anime have source materials that aren't really all that long of reads, actually.

Well...kinda. I think the only series that I went online to read the rest of was School Rumble many years back, but even with franchises where I can't get them physically and I really like the source material (Touhou's a good example) I just slog through.

It's...situational, though. When I discovered Dragon Ball Multiverse (real quality work, by the way, I recommend fans check it out), I read all of it in that night. So there are a lot of small factors that play into my motivation.
 
I really like know the way to nominate a girl in ISML Because I want to nominate her--

Go digging on their site for it. They have a nomination period for each year's poll. This year's was a 2 week period to start off March. I'd assume nominations happen in their forums.

That's quite the non-effort for digital works. Not that it's really all that much less effort than I typically put in for digital works. I've read several digitally, but I've read just as many if not more in print first.

Dragon Ball Multiverse? Is that like a separate series from Dragon Ball proper? Or just a book with multiverse factoids?

The list of Top selling animation in Japan has been revealed--

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-06-17/top-selling-animation-in-japan-by-title-2015/.89373

Youkai watch is at 27th place !
Off course , I don't what top ''Selling Animation'' mean !
Is it mean that total profit an Animation got from DVD , Blu-ray disc and merchandise ??

Your linked source is going by DVD/BluRay units sold. Big Hero 6 is apparently slaying all other animation in Japan right now.


Manga units sold for the same time period since the topic of top-sellers has been brought up: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-05-31/top-selling-manga-in-japan-by-series-2015/.88770


One Piece appears to no longer be the undisputed king in terms of units moved.

But didn't ''One Piece'' made a world Guinness Book Record of selling most copy of single Comic series ?
 
Big Hero 6 and Frozen-tan are Anime according to Japan's standards, 'cause they're an アニメーション. :P

Also I'm slowly catching up with my spring list yay. Also why am I not interested in the Summer titles? Well, at least I can watch other stuff while I'm at it (aka clear out my on-hold list).

Well, they're anime anywhere, really. Same as Western cartoons. Goes the other way, too, with anime being cartoons.

Differentiation is really just a means of classification.

Well, anime's evolved to specifically mean Japanese animation in English, but I get your point.

Also, fun fact: the Digimon Adventures dub is available on Crunchyroll for everyone in the USA right now.

It did, but it appears to be cooling down in terms of popularity. That World Record was for the lifetime of a series.

Anime that are more popular with the kids usually have their strengths in other areas - namely toy merchandise. Regular numbers for discs in that shounen age group can be pretty underwhelming and misleading.

The late night anime are aimed at filthy otaku NEETs adults with disposable income that spend it on whatever they want. (in a somewhat related note, this is how AKB48 fans manipulate the Oricon charts by buying hundreds of copies each)

I'm basing my statement off of the fact that One Piece manga sales fell by about 7 million from 2013 to 2014. Though now that I look at the 2015 numbers again, it looks like it's moved about 7 million units so far this year, which would make 2015 sales at about 14 million if the pace keeps for the whole year, which is a jump that isn't something to sneeze at, I guess.

Dragon Ball Super and Durarara Ten for me, not sure what else. Though I just realized as I typed it that Drrr will be subbed. Guess that'll be a Fall show for me *sigh*, oh waiting for the sake of consistency, how evil you are.

I've got those on my personal lists already if any of the streaming services picks them up. Funimation will probably have Dragon Ball Super on simulcast and simuldub. I'm just waiting for the entry in my Crunchyroll queue to show DRRR has a new episode coming for that.

I know I'll probably be following whatever I manage to catch up on before this season ends that's carrying over into the next season, but I'm still searching for other things. Not really seeing anything that sticks out so far when I've been skimming summer show lists.
 
Oh, duh, forgot some. I'm gonna give A World Where Dirty Jokes Don't Exist a look. Gatchaman's another returning from last year, so that'll be another one I watch. I've heard good things about the Prison School manga so I'll also give it a look, but of these Gatchaman's the only one I fully intend to "watch".

Teekyu 5 is a watch, of course, love that show. God Eater's another one I'll give a look, though I have absolutely no intention to watch it since I don't expect it to be good (considering the game's story isn't all that great), but you never know. And...well, on AniChart I see this anime called Overlord, and its Madhouse. And it looks classic fantasy. So, in every regard it's right up my alley...but it's an MMO in 2038, so Classic Fantasy probably won't describe it very well. We'll see, but this one I'm interested in. You don't see a lot of fun classic Fantasy-Adventure, sort of RPG inspired anime these days.
