On the Billboard JAPAN anime chart “JAPAN Hot Animation” released on July 24, 2024 (collection period: July 15-21, 2024), Mrs. GREEN APPLE’s “Lilac,” the opening theme for the TV anime “Wakyo Battery,” won first place.
It maintained its No. 1 spot in streaming and No. 2 spot in video playback and karaoke. It dropped from 5th to 6th place on the radio but rose from 5th to 4th in downloads, maintaining its No. 1 spot in anime this week.
Although the number of points earned, which had been rising, decreased this week, it still has a significant lead over second place and below, mainly in streaming indicators. Creepy Nuts’ ” Bling-Bang-Bang-Born ” ( the opening theme for the second season of the TV anime “Mashle” “Divine Awakening Candidate Selection Exam”), which was held at Dodger Stadium in LA on July 21 (Japan time) and became a hot topic for its first performance in the US, remained almost the same in both ranking and points as the previous week.
In addition, GEMN’s “Fatale,” the opening theme for the second season of the TV anime “Oshi no Ko,” improved its ranking in streaming and radio (both 4th to 3rd place), moving from 4th place last week in the anime chart to 3rd place.
It has made it into the top 3 in its third week since its appearance. This week’s first song is “Bloom the smile, Bloom the dream!” by Hasunozora Girls’ Academy School Idol Club from the app “Link! Like! Love Live! “, which debuted at 8th place. It recorded 1st place in CD sales and 17th place in downloads. ‘JAPAN Hot Animation’ Top 10 1st place: “Lilac” Mrs. GREEN APPLE 2nd place: “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born” Creepy Nuts 3rd place: “Fatale” GEMN 4th place: “Dream Fantasy” MY FIRST STORY × HYDE 5th place: “Idol” YOASOBI 6th place: “UNDEAD” YOASOBI 7th place: “Time Paradox” Vaundy 8th place: “Bloom the smile, Bloom the dream!” Hasunozora Girls’ Academy School Idol Club 9th place: “Orange” SPYAIR 10th place: “Inferno” Mrs. GREEN APPLE
