Series producer shares sales numbers on Twitter.

Total worldwide sales for the Senran Kagura series have exceeded 1.65 million, series producer Kenichiro Takaki said on Twitter.

“I forgot to mention it at the event the other day,” Takaki said, referring the the Senran Kagura New Title Presentation on August 1 that saw several Senran Kagura related announcements, “but the Senran Kagura series, which at the beginning they said would be amazing if it even sold 30,000 units, has sold over 1,650,000 copies worldwide in five years. Sales aren’t everything, but I’ll be happy if it sells more… It would be nice to get some pocket money, wouldn’t it?”

The original Senran Kagura first launched for 3DS in Japan in 2011. It has since seen several sequels and spin-offs across 3DS, PS Vita, PlayStation 4, PC, and smartphones.
