| Nisekoi at 9th is not surprising.. but wow for STB. Not that the anime is good, but it's doing a good job promoting the LN huh? |
| lol wait mahou shoujo of the end charts? well thats good to see even though we havent gotten an English update in fucking forever |

Snow said: 40. *15,350 *,*15,350 Hitoribocchi no Chikyuu Shinryaku Vol.5 I am very happy to see that this sells decently well (relatively speaking). It definitely isn't the type of series that appeals to many people, it's a bit of a cult title, so these sales are actually quite the good sign. Might mean it has managed to find its "niche market" thereby lowering the chances of early cancellation. |
| I'm happy to see Nisekoi selling well :) when the new volume of fairy tail will be out? |
 |
| gin no saji is good. I'm pretty disappointed that the romance in nisekoi went nowhere...could've been a good manga/anime. harem can really kill any kind of plot... |

Houreki said: when the new volume of fairy tail will be out? According to Amazon it came out on the 17th. It will be on next week's chart. |
| Wow, I hope Strike the Blood gets a second season in the future considering its good sales. I've enjoyed the anime plenty so far. Shueisha dominating again, not surprising. One Piece is too OP. Nisekoi still selling very well, dat anime boost. I approve. Nice to see New Prince of Tennis selling well. Monster Musume! Nice! Kangoku Gakuen is awesome. Shingeki no Kyojin still charting. I guess the time hasn't come. We'll see what happens when Volume 13 comes out. |

The publisher delayed it (and a few other light novels like No Game No Life, Henneko, Dragonar), probably because their release schedule for April was too weak or something like that. |

What the fuck Light Novels? When will this stupid super long name trend end? It's still nothing, I've seen worse in JAVs. They tend to have paragraph long titles that act as complete descriptors for the content within, like: or Those aren't blurbs on the back, they're the title on the covers. I guess like JAVs, these LNs are just mostly mass-produced "junk food" and they use these titles to help differentiate and stand-out by letting you the premise right off the bat instead of having to actually open one and guess what happens. |

Yes, if Togashi would have been a responsible person and constantly worked on his manga instead of playing Dragon Quest, Hunter x Hunter may have been a strong opponent for One Piece in the yearly rankings. But Togashi is a troll, so he didn't do that. Now, even if HxH came back regularly, it doesn't represent absolutely any competition for OP. Don't get me wrong. i know that HxH is huge in Japan. More huge than Shingeki no Kyojin, obviously. Nobody cuetions that. But it could have been bigger, if it wasn't by Togashi's laziness. |

But Togashi is a troll, so he didn't do that. Yes you are right, thats why we HxH Fans lament the situation and wish it were different, but alas Togashi gives us almost no hope for a recovery. Andan210 said: Now, even if HxH came back regularly, it doesn't represent absolutely any competition for OP. If togashi came back immediately and consistently released volumes at a similar rate to OP (this is roughly equivalent to lotto percentages), it still wouldnt be a threat in the short term. However this would have a ripple effect of extending the anime indefinitely and putting it back in an ideal spot to hit up the top 10 rankings every week like it used to back in 2011/2012 when the manga was ongoing. Eventually after a year or two of consistency the gap would be narrowed, and HxH would be 2nd to OP. It would atleast be able to reclaim its 700k first weeks, if not even beat its own numbers, and would present some kind of challenge at the top of the Shonen Battle Manga War. Andan210 said: i know that HxH is huge in Japan. More huge than Shingeki no Kyojin, obviously. Nobody cuetions that. But it could have been bigger, if it wasn't by Togashi's laziness. Yes most of us who have been following anime/manga since last millenium realize in the grand scheme of things how HxH is much bigger than Snk. However you would be surprised how many ignorant SnK fans think they are in the same league. They are blinded by it having reached its Peak and the huge anime boost it got, and think that a good year or two puts it in the same discussion as the 2 last remaining Powerhouses from last Millenium. There is no reasoning with them, they will have to learn the hardway in a couple years when SnK meets its demise. Ultimately 10 years down the line when Op and HxH are still around and Dominating, and SnK is just a fleeting memory, they will realize the folly of their ways. Ofcourse Togashi is the biggest threat to HxH, he has done everything to suppress its potential which was much greater if he would have been half the Mangaka Eiichiro Oda is in terms of consistent releases and work ethic. If by some miracle he can get his act together then HxH has a chance to be the threatening competition to OP that it should have been. |

It would atleast be able to reclaim its 700k first weeks, if not even beat its own numbers, and would present some kind of challenge at the top of the Shonen Battle Manga War. Well from my point of view, if Togashi went back to his work ethic form 1998-2002 (that is, when he actually worked) and started releasing at least 3 or 4 volumes per year, it obviously would increase the total manga sales. Right now is Shueisha's eighth best-selling manga series, but if Togashi actually cared for the fans and worked his ass off for the next 10 years or so, it could easily enter in the Top 5. However, even if Togashi would did this right now, the anime is still going to end in August-September of this year, because is simply to close to the manga and consumes too many chapter with each episode (approximately 3 chapters of the manga for every episode of the anime). So, that will eliminate the anime boost for a at least 3 or more years. I still think it lost his chance to be a real threat to One Piece supremacy, but it will definitely be one to Naruto for example. Or every other series that is not OP, really.

If by some miracle he can get his act together then HxH has a chance to be the threatening competition to OP that it should have been. I really don't think SnK is gonna have a very dramatic drop in sales in the recent years. After all remenber that is monthly manga, so is only able to publish 2 or maybe 3 volumes per year, at most. So, all the fans ,in Jpan and worldwide, will focus in those few volumes per year, and the sales will be stable. I agree in that it has reached his peek in sales, and that people that put it in the same league as long-runners like OP, HxH or Naruto are in heavy drugs. It belongs in the same category as Berserk for example. It will have steady year sales, helped out by the fact that the second season of the anime is most probably going to come out in 2015-2016. But it will never in this universe reach the numbers of Shueisha's biggest hits, like some delusional fans says. Besides, it has been confirmed that it's going to end in volume 20, so that leaves 4 years at most of life to the manga. Like i said, heavy drugs. And yeah, fuck Togashi. |

| The only True Ending is the Harem Ending. |
| Ok, One piece at #1 Naruto surprisingly in second, and silver spool in third. Now what was shocking to me is that attack on titan didn't even make the top 25 list. I really thought It would have at least make it in the top 10, but I guess not. Maybe because of the anime ending? or because the last few chapters are slow paced? Anyways I hope attack on titan can get some sales to try and get a top 10 spot. My prediction is one piece getting first spot this year. I don't think naruto will hold second spot though.... I'm not a naruto hater btw. here's the link http://www.saiyanisland.com/2014/03/one-piece-naruto-led-the-way-in-manga-sales-bleach-6/ Mod Note: Separate thread on manga sales merged with the official news thread, discussion from merged thread follows. |
