no. it has enough chapters for a volume right now. November is the month of new volume.

Just because a series has enough chapters for a new volume doesn't mean a volume will get released. However, you may be right that it gets a volume in early to mid November, looking at its release schedule for the last little while, however, it may only get a week or two on the rankings list, if that.

yh u dont know what ur talking about. look at last year?. toriko volume 32 came out in november and and volume 31 came out in september. The mangaka of toriko doesnt take breaks so it will happen and the series will make top 30

deal with it

There is basically no chance for Toriko to make the Top 30 this year, new volume or not. Its sales have decreased while the sales of other series increased or remained stable.

But what if a cooking show that discusses Toriko's recipes gets made and the manga receives a boost as large as Kingdom's? No even bigger, closer to the one One Piece got in 2010. You will all then eat crows and Ichii will be the one laughing at the end.

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...

Hey you never know if that TV show will do another anime/manga segment :)
I'm sure they have gotten offers to advertise some series.

Oh and I think that sales chart is missing toriko's November sales of last year, since it released a volume close to the cutoff date.

I'm positive that if that happens, the show will choose Bambino or Soma over Toriko

LMAO. If Toriko ever gets a boost of any sort, then Ichii's enthusiasm might reach... um unhealthy levels.

@Ichii Just to mentally prepare you, this might be the last year with Bleach in Top 30 as well.

Tokyo Ghoul is love. Tokyo Ghoul: re is life. ;-)

"I'm just your typical human being who commit sins just like you. But the difference is that I never lied and tell anyone that what I did was right. I regret and ask for forgiveness from Him."

Why is my signature not anime-related? It's because who gives a fuck? Anyway I'd like to advertise to you this:

SHINGEKI NO KYOJIN IS FOLLOWING A SIMPLE FLOW OF THE STORYLINE. AND IT GETS REPETETIVE IF YOU VIEW IT ON ITS BIGGER PICTURE. WITH A LITTLE PLOT TWIST AND NEW IDEAS, YOU FORGOT THAT IT HAD ALREADY HAPPENED BEFORE.

Also, Tokyo Ghoul is AWESOME. Especially :re.

One Piece, Haikyuu, and Assassination Classroom all released on the 3rd. All are going to sell a buttload of volumes.

We all know One Piece will be in 1st, that's how it always is and always will be. However, the AC/Haikyuu race will be interesting. However, it's very hard to not give the nod to Haikyuu, as their new anime season literally started right as their new volume came out, and AC's anime is long since done. According to the blog that counts daily sales, Haikyuu was indeed ranked above AC. I'm more curious how much each will sell. But it's indeed interesting.

No way, it hasn't been nor will it ever be as popular as Slam Dunk. KnB was FAR more popular when it was running. Haikyuu is good and is the most popular ongoing sports series, but it's no Slam Dunk.

a KnB volume never sold 900k in a year, Haikyuu did it in 6 months....Haikyuu is probably selling better than 2009 Bleach at this point....

Eh, Haikyuu is no Slam Dunk but it is definitely more popular than KnB, both the anime and the manga.

I feel like OP is always number 1 both in the first and second week of release. Has One Piece ever failed to be #1 on the second week?

Uhh yes of course. It all depends on the competition it receives on its second week.

This question is kinda late but was there any promotion for Mahou Tsukai no Yome ? Was it a cd drama ?

A drama CD was announced last month.
I think it was voted on as one of the best new series by by different stores/polls at the start of the year, so that's probably it.

Probably not for several more years. If someone like Madhouse can somehow take it up, I think it can explode. A big issue with not just the Kingdom anime, but the Toriko anime among others is the studios do a crap job at adapting the series. I look at the Toriko anime and it was so totally different from the manga. They tried to force certain elements, and it didn't fit at all. When it comes to the Kingdom anime, it was treated as a generic shonen rather than a seinen or even a more dark shonen. I look at Hunter x Hunter and Madhouse's adaptation with that, and I feel like they were able ot capture the manga so well, which is why it is so beloved and such an amazing series.

The good news is Kingdom is getting major attention, and being #5 for a year is pretty frekaing impressive, so I still feel that at the very least, there will be a season 3. However, so much of the success were due to that one TV show, so next year it may drop way down again, who knows. I just hope that the success it's had in the second half of the year might've encouraged new production for an anime. At least it has that, where Toriko can't even crack top 30, which means the likelihood it gets another anime or a continuation is very low. But if Kingdom got a legit good anime, it can really grow in popularity in the west.

Bad news to you. The Hunter x Hunter 2011 adaptation isn't as beloved as you think. Also if you're talking of capturing the manga, Nippon Animation did way better, and also was way, but way way more popular than this new adaptation.

About Toriko, I totally disagree. Also Toriko anime was more popular than Hunter x Hunter 2011, so ...

And before you come and say that HunterxHunter 2011 wasn't more popular because it was a remake, look at Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood and how even not being as popular as the first anime in proportion did way better.

every toriko maga readers know that toriko has countles moments that can be the hype moment of the year like adult gon transformation.

and the thing is it seems that toriko is being rushed atm but idk that for certain

I'm going to give toriko a good binge read just to see what all the hype is about. The good thing is that I've already read 3 chapters of the manga and it wasn't as painful to read as boku no hero academia. That series was just too hard to stomach.

Hunter x Hunter gets stupidly praise but I disagree with you. More scenes are censored in the 1999 version than the 2011 anime. Narrations didnt exsit in the 1999 ver. and the 2011 did everything mostly panel by panel. (yh i know that 2011 skipped out on some stuff in the start but overall 2011 was a better adaptation)

the toriko anime is for kids/ there is a reason why they censor everything. It is not as intense as the manga

Comparing TV ratings now to back then isn't fair either, since TV isn't as big anymore, getting 148 episodes is a sign of a big success.
And wasn't there something about the publisher not wanting to fund it anymore but other people did cause I remember something like that :(
The problem is togashi and his hiatuses which is why the anime 2011 didn't get it's full potential in sales.

It's an adventure/action/fantasy series, just don't go into it with false expectations.

Bad news to you. The Hunter x Hunter 2011 adaptation isn't as beloved as you think. Also if you're talking of capturing the manga, Nippon Animation did way better, and also was way, but way way more popular than this new adaptation.

About Toriko, I totally disagree. Also Toriko anime was more popular than Hunter x Hunter 2011, so ...

And before you come and say that HunterxHunter 2011 wasn't more popular because it was a remake, look at Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood and how even not being as popular as the first anime in proportion did way better.

I think HxH 11 was moderately popular, given it recieved 2 movies & madhouse/ntv continued the series even when shuiesha stopped funding. Tho I have nothing to compare it with toriko

also I disagree with the adaptation part. Both nippon/MH did a good job and both had their downs. HxH11 got better with each arc (adaption wise)

Imagine a berserk anime by Yoshiaki kawajiri at Madhouse.

Now take a look at Berserk (2016).

YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO CRY.

Didn't Madhouse almost go bankrupt due to the HxH anime? I feel like I read that somewhere.

No, it was just after them being saved by NTV that they started doing HxH.

I would guess that when NTV bought Madhouse forced them to do a long running mainstream anime in their channel. Before that Madhouse didn't had a long running series in ages, and right now HxH is the longest continuous series Madhouse made.

I don't know, but I would assume that wouldn't make sense to continue due to the stagnation of the volume sales. Basically at that point the series continuing or not wouldn't mean much for the company.

What? You know that Shueisha stopped funding the anime during the Chimera Ant Arc right? It was the time where they had to change timeslots. At that time the manga didn't even have returned from hiatus, even less getting back to it again.

How does that change the fact they didn't want to fund it cause of the hiatus?
togashi was releasing chapters when it started but not even them expected this level of hiatus again.
Every time I look at this chart it disgusts me :(

They were already funding the anime for the first 2 years while the manga was still in hiatus!

If by "didn't want to fund it cause of the hiatus" you're in reality are saying "there is no more new volumes coming and the backlog already got every boost the anime could give" than I would say yes.
Indirectly the reason for that state was the prolonged hiatus, but they didn't stopped because of the hiatus, but of the state the hiatus put them in.
