Top selling anime DVDs; bad reviews can't stop Yu-Gi-Oh

Courtesy Nielsen's VideoScan, via Video Store Magazine:

Top selling anime DVDs
1. Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Movie
2. Spirited Away
3. Inuyasha: Affections Touching Across Time
4. DBGT: Baby....Conversion Vol. 14
5. Princess Mononoke
6. Cowboy Beebop: The Movie
7. DBGT: Baby....Revelations
8. DBGT: Baby....Calculations
9. Ghost in the Shell TV Vol. 1
10. Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound

That's year to date, and Yu-Gi-Oh has only been on the streets for a couple weeks! Spirited Away was tops for months....

I'm surprised none of the Pokemon movies are on that list. The first one was a big seller.

Nope, but a few evergreens are in the top 20: Ninja Scroll 10th Anniversary edition, GITS movie, and Animatrix.

You have to keep in mind that everything on the top 10 list has some sort of TV or Theatrical exposure. Without it, they wouldn't be that high.
