TV Tokyo recently released a DVD box for their midnight drama "Majisuka Gakuen 2", which featured a cast that was chock-full of members from idol group AKB48.
Today, Oricon updated their weekly DVD ranking and announced that the DVD box sold 10,000 copies in its first week. The DVD box thus secured second place in the overall DVD ranking, and first place in the drama DVD ranking.
The DVD box for the first season of the drama, "Majisuka Gakuen", only moved 3,000 copies in its first week, resulting in a 32rd place in the overall ranking.
It's only the second DVD box of a drama -- including Japanese and Western releases -- to sell 10,000 copies in its first week. The other drama was "Sakura kara no Tegami", another series starring a lot of members from AKB48.
Will the success convince TV Tokyo to make a third season?
