@TheNextChamp thnx.

@agafin. Basically I mean this. Snk vol 16 sold1.5 mil, the last time we saw vol 16 limited edition it Sold like 200k. But oricon doesn't count them together which would bring snk vol 16 to 1.7 mill. They separate them. But in the end they are all counted together.

I think they separate the limited edition from the normal edition just for them too see how much the limited edition sold by itself.

Toriko isn't entering it's final arc, it's always fast paced, most arc are barely 30 chapters.

@kera, I'm still confused. In short, are the 7 million I see for NNT everything it sold (including LE) or are the LE not included?

Btw, I'm surprised that Haikyu's volume sold that much more than KnB's.

And Parasyte actually had a boost, whether from the anime or the movie.

He's not nitpicking. Both of those volumes listed by Agafin were released on 5th of January while the volume one of BNHA which you listed came out last year on 4th of November. A much fairer comparison would be Toriko's volume 32 which also came out on 4th of November. And now if you look at the list Toriko's volume 32 didn't even chart in the Top 100.

Actually no, BnHA is increasing the gap. That volume had higher sales than Toriko when they both left the list.

I'm comparing volumes having similar release dates. Like Z4K posted, BnHA vol 3 sold more than Toriko vol 34. As for vol 1, part of its sales are in 2014 so these are essentially backlog sales.

@Syndiciate. That's the power of anime boost my friend. I'm happy for snk sales, I knew it would be tough to best out series that are currently getting anime /live action movie boost But I can see snk getting the #3 spot by the end of the year from assclass.

That´s not the only reason.
Ass classroom is besides the Anime going through it´s ending currently, the Anime certainly does something. But the volumes that are getting sold are at the peak of it´s Manga.

Any question that came up during the first chapters is answered in a matter of 1-2 volumes. It´s written pretty climactic and fast paced.
My assumption is that rather then the new fans through the Anime it´s more the old fans who kept reading it who are boosting the sales. The Anime should be more like a second wind, boosting the sales even more

I agree it's kinda lame. I think there's a bigger reason for this than merely

I mean I'll be the first to admit it's far from perfect but I find that it's one of the most enjoyable new series out right now.

smh :( this just shows the importance of advertisement and color pages.
Toriko hasn't gotten ANY advertisement since the anime ended, this is a test for Toriko to stand on it's own, and it'll sell at least 1.5 million by the full list so I consider it a success, it's like a house trained cat being thrown into the amazon jungle.

The manga is pretty great, has everything you could ever ask for in an action Shonen series and the Zatch/Kiyo relationship was written pretty well. The artstyle makes the comedy a lot better, too.

I don't know about that. All of my male friends don't like FT. They said it was too cheesy.

On the other hand, I have a lot of female friends who like FT. Probably because of strong women.

I don't know why people keep bringing up fairy tale as a replacement for any of the big 3. The series is a long runner just like the big 3, but still a lot of people don't give too shits about it.

Fairy tale is a semi popular series. Nothing else nothing more, the end!

Hmm. If I were to compare FT's popularity then I guess I'd compare it to Yu-Gi-Oh. Long runners that aren't too popular.

Madman Entertainment uploaded the trailer for One Piece season 7 before FUNi did, surprise surprise. I'm not really fond of how anyone sounded, though, hopefully they clean it up before the official release.

It's pretty popular in the US at least. The anime sells very well and FUNimation promotes it just as much as they do One Piece and FMA
