Bandai Entertainment Cancels Lucky Star Volume 6 Limited Edition

Humberto Saabedra

lucky star v6 LE Bandai representative Robert Napton has confirmed that the Limited Edition version of Lucky Star Volume 6 has been canceled due to poor sales performance compounding the problem of low sales volume for a show that was never expected to do well outside of the core fanbase.

This follows up the “indefinite suspension” given last month when the volume was originally solicited to retailers without the limited edition, with many wondering why the limited edition wasn’t being made available and many others correctly speculating that it was canceled due to low sales.
