Wow One Piece hanging in there really good. Also why is Toriko sales so low i know they are low but not THAT low . Is it because it had only 3 days or so counted.

I'm glad Extra Game sold decently.

5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Yea. Sales are droppingg.

The sales have fallen a bit. It usually gets like 130-140k during it's first week, not even the first week like in the first 3 days.

I really need to start reading To LOVE-Ru again, glad to see it selling well though. So far behind I'd may well not have even started.

Elsewhere shame that Shokugeki no Soma won't reach 500k before dropping off but the boost has been really fantastic. Likewise a great boost for Prison School.

21.　*27,803　*,*53,775　Mujaki no Rakuen Vol.8

Keep the greatness coming, fab volume as always.

Long running ? i wouldnt say its long running with only 14 volumes, Id say long running for me is like 20 volumes or more.

Darkness is a sequel. The original TLR had 18 volumes as well. So the franchise as a whole is at volume 32 and counting by now

It's stable? The last volumes sold 142 k, thats 30 k difference almost. And its rankings are pretty decent, rankings in WSJ dont mean that much anyway, just look at bleach its always bottom of the rankings but it sells much better than most of the higher ranked ones.

TLRD's sale is low comparing to previous year. Is it because only 3 volumes were released this year ? But the anime and figures are selling well lol .

2012 sales : 1,299,723
2013 sales : 1,558,973
2014 sales : 1,349,681
Currently : 574368 + 122,638 = 697,006
---------------------------------------------------------------

Is Owari no Seraph that bad ? I'm planning to buy the English volumes .

Hopefully vol 15 of Shokugeki will reach half a million .

Okay, I've just noticed that it's not just Toriko but also To love Ru and everything released this week which sold less than usual. The Summer break ended last week in two major Japanese regions (Shibuya and Shinagawa) so maybe that can explain this phenomenon, let's wait for next week.

Attack on Titan and One Piece's legs sure are something, no wonder they're the two biggest manga series right now. Also, is Extra Game not a mini series like those post ending Naruto chapters?

The big question for Kingdom is whether it can hold out until its next volume comes out, then it might get another mini boost. It still was the #2 best selling series of the week, though, it has consistently been a top seller weekly, which is quite impressive. You have to wonder if volume 40 will sell better than 39 did. But yeah, the boost has been dying pretty hard. It seems less and less likely it can surpass either SnK or AC.

Kuroko continues to be a big hit though There continues to be lots of love for the series.
