Milano12 said: 98,977 217,197 Kagerou Days Vol.5 (week 2) I wonder what happened?! The week 1 for this volume was just it getting a last-minute early release. The release date was originally listed as Monday of last week (ie the first day reported in the above sales), which was KCG Bunko's release day for April (yes I know it was in March - but that's the way these things work). It ended up getting released on the Saturday of the previous week instead but most people wouldn't have noticed this, particularly as it was still scheduled for the Monday release as of 4 days earlier - and most stores probably didn't have it in stock on the early date. On the other hand, volume 5 also got a 2 day first week, but that had always been the intention. Hence the difference beteen a 118k week 1 then and a 29k week 1 this time. |

I mean, I know the anime was fairly bad but the songs themselves are AMAZING (Outer science <3), but the series did better then I thought. Kagerou Days Vol.5 was the best selling light novel volume of 2014 (Biblia is not a light novel), but in terms of light novel series, it was the 3rd best selling behind Mahouka and SAO. |

I wouldn't be too surprised if Owari no Seraph hits top 5 later this year. If there is enough content to adapt from BnH manga then imagine the sales boost it will get given how popular it is right now without anime. I hope Owari no Seraph gets a good boost from the anime. If anything, the second cour will be much better than the mediocre first cour as the story gets better from chapter 12. |

| Owari no Seraph only 101,324 !! I did not read the manga, but 1st episode of the anime was masterpiece. Almost as good as Attack on titan 1st episode. It deserve to be in the top of list. |

tsudecimo said: iamagundam said: nonono, after volume 59 was out, overall sales was 82,070,000. We are talking about highest sales per volume, not total sales. look at it closely. 82070000/59=1391016,949152542 So, it means that vol.36 wasn't the best selling volume. |

| What you are referring to is an average, what I'm referring to, is the literal highest volume sale. For example, HxH average sale per volume is more than 2 million, but there is no volume, that sold 2 million in it's first print, or in one year of release. |

| I guess it would be 2004 or 2005, because of the anime boost, I thought the anime started in 2006, so that's why I claimed 2009. 2009 is the last recorded peak, then. |

Question was "How much did Bleach sell at its peak?", and averege proves that 2009 wasn't even close to its peak. Those figures you quoted, though, mostly consist of long tail data. The sales figures you quoted above for 2009 show that less than half of the sales in that year were for the volumes released that year. Furthermore, I assume your 82070k figure is number shipped, rather than number sold. Number shipped will always be higher than number sold (sometimes significantly so). Furthermore, number sold will always be higher than the number that Oricon reports as having been sold, given that Oricon doesn't include all retailers/sales methods. |

If it comes from the publisher (which just about all announcements of total sales figures for series do) it will be one of the following three things: - copies printed (unlikely - this is commonly used for individual volumes but for a series as a whole it's meaningless) - copies shipped - copies shipped minus copies returned |

| Hopefully Shokugeki no Souma's sales grow since the anime is airing now!~ |

Thanks. Searching around the linked sources it seems the 82070k figure comes from the Shueisha's Media Guide 2013, so yes it is from the publisher. Incidentally, that site lists figures which could provide a different way of measuring when the series was at its peak - the initial print run figures for individual volumes. Note that this one thus comes under the "copies printed" and is based entirely on how well Shueisha expected the volume to sell rather than how well it actually did sell, but these figures peaked in the mid 20s - early 30s in volume numbers, and were just starting their drop during 2009. |

kuuderes_shadow said: [ - copies printed (unlikely - this is commonly used for individual volumes but for a series as a whole it's meaningless) That gets used for sales outside of Japan though. For example, Naruto was announced to have 200 million prints worldwide. Announcement like this too. Also US manga sales, are prints, not the actual figures if I'm not mistaken. |

Dragon88 said: I am surprised by how well Assassination Classroom in doing. I think for the first half of 2015 it might actually be #3 in rankings in sales with OP being #1 and AOT being #2. The thing with Assassination Classroom is that old volumes are selling too. For some reason lot of people are buying the old volumes. I actually see a competition between Assassination classroom, Tokyo Ghoul and Nanatsu no Taizai for #3 spot for the first half of 2015. Tokyo ghoul and Tokyo ghoul:re's sales are counted separately so it won't chart near the top ten this time. |
| Here are the weekly manga series sales from Nov 17 to Apr 5 (as the 2014 yearlies was counted up to Nov 16, 2014). Oricon only counts sales up to rank 500 for manga individual volumes, so these series sales are the Top 10 combined sales from the Top 500 manga every week. This should somehow help in figuring out which manga series will be the top sellers for the 1st half of 2015 through a spreadsheet or whatever. Ignore the "weekly charted sales", as I only copied and pasted the data from the News Club, before we stopped updating it 2 months ago. Rank / Weekly Sales / Weekly Charted Sales / Series Title Nov 17~23 Nov 24~30 Dec 1~7 Dec 8~14 Dec 15~21 Dec 22~28 Dec 29~Jan 4 Jan 5~11 Jan 12~18 Jan 19~25 Jan 26~Feb 1 Feb 2~8 Feb 9~15 Feb 16~22 Feb 23~Mar 1 Mar 2~8 Mar 9~15 Mar 16~22 Mar 23~29 Mar 30~Apr 6 |

Why is there 2 numbers next to each other. But anyway I went back and looked at some data, any NNT really killed it. But not sure about the final numbers you guys showed. But it looks like NNT is in top 2 at least. First column is the weekly rank, second is the weekly sales from the Top 500 manga (as released by Oricon), third is the weekly sales that charted in the Top 50 manga (as released by Oricon, but I tallied this up). So the third column sales will be less than or equal to (if all the sales are in the Top 50 manga) the second column sales. I even provided a key there... so do I need to make it more explicit?

| @Dragon88 I made a spreadsheet with all the data, with total sales so far calculated: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10K_N1R6l8reAqL4mioBECSNIJ6iqDo2FcouN79dg0Vc/edit?pli=1#gid=956523096 Nanatsu no Taizai has charted every single week since November 17, 2014. Based on the data here, the most likely top 10 will be... *1 5,810,510 七つの大罪 *2 4,960,245 ONE PIECE *3 3,323,513 暗殺教室 *4 2,107,394 進撃の巨人 *5 1,752,514 ハイキュー!! *6 1,545,441 テラフォーマーズ *7 1,516,819 東京喰種:re [Corrected due to weekly sales falling under the thresholds] *8 1,497,860 アオハライド *9 1,341,461 東京喰種 10 1,272,507 NARUTO However, bear in mind we only get the Top 10 Manga Series each week. I have included the thresholds in the 2nd last column of the spreadsheet, so series that did not make the top 10 in a week did not necessarily sell 0 copies for that week. If a series had volumes in the top 500 manga, those are counted, but may not be enough to make the top 10. See ONE PIECE for example, it only has data there for 7/20 of the weeks so far in the first half of 2015. It could very well be beating Nanatsu by now due to the thresholds, but obviously it will be above it eventually due to how strong its sales are. |
