Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I saw a article saying digital sales has surpass manga sales overall?


Searching around and found this: https://www.huffingtonpost.jp/2018/02/26/comic-paper_a_23370852/
So yes, indeed. I had come across that story before so I should have known - it just slipped my mind.

The point on light novels still holds true for those, of course.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

One Piece #1 even without the 1.5 million so far of volume 91 counted. With the events of the 14th movie and the current arc I can the popularity growing even more.

Congrats to Slam Dunk for making a comeback.

Manga Sales by Series
*1. 8,113,317 One Piece
*2. 6,718,185 Boku no Hero Academia
*3. 5,235,963 Shingeki no Kyojin
*7. 4,867,680 Nanatsu no Taizai


All hail the Pirate King!

This is the 11th year in a row that One Piece has topped the annual manga ranking chart. Simply amazing. Has any other manga done that before?

Awesome numbers for Boku no Herir Academia, Shingeki no Kyojin and Nanatsu no Taizai too. And also Hunter x Hunter and Kuroshitsuji in the lista of manga sales by volumes.

Light Novel Sales by Series
*7. *,426,794 Sword Art Online: Progressive
*9. *,371,626 Sword Art Online
10. *,350,960 No Game No Life


Great sales for Sword Art Online and No Game No Life, like always. If you combine the numbers of Progressive and the "normal" series, SAO ends up as the number #2 in total yearly sales for Light Novels.

The novels of One Piece and Boku no Hero Academia did very well.

And come on, you know how all of yours have a shit load of plot holes.
Maybe that's your thing and I don't mind it.

lmao did you just say "people like different things" when you were the one to trash him for his favorites in the first place..?

I didn't mean to but he provoked me.
