Good to see Konosuba doing well, but see Re:Zero almost sales as much without new seasons is insane (a little bit salty, since Im a big Konosuba LN fan). Then again, as long as Konosuba still selling OK, I am happy XD

Re:Zero released 2 volumes then Konosuba released only 1 volume during this period. You have to look at volume sales rather than total sales.
Kimi no Na wa is not far from becoming the best selling LN volume of all time with 1,882,747 copies sold.
It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.
Hero Academia almost cracked the Top 5, but this is still a victory nonetheless :D....Happy for Re:Zero, KonoSuba and most of all Youjo Senki too (Nice to see Akashtic Records getting some love as well)
Not surprised to see One Piece and SAO taking the top spots though xD
It's unusual to see that several titles from less famous publishers have bypassed or leveled off with one of Dengeki's top hits. I'm glad that ReZero is still selling well without a boost and is amazed that Rokudenashi eventually even went around Eromanga.

great sales hoping for more anime sequels
and i wonder when will the manga industry report on digital sales too because i heard news that print manga are declining in sales while digital manga sales are rising
Overall, manga sales have a little fallen compared to the first half of 2016. Hierarchy has no major upheaval compared a year ago: some series that had benefited from a boost (anime or live) disappear logically, leaving their place to Other series.
My Hero Academia did not move in global sales but at the volume level yes (effect season 2 limited), while NNT lowed as there was a one month lag in its releases due to Suzuki's hospitalization in December (we see that if Volume 26 was released in April as usually, NTT could have climbed to sixth place).
Blue Exorcist, March Comes in a Lion and Yowamushi Pedal enjoy a "anime boost". Days (Magazine), Diamond no Ace Act II (Magazine) and Black Clover (Jump) appear this year in the top because in the end there is weak "anime effect" on this first half compared to last year: series between 700 000 and 900 000 have thus returned this year in the top mechanically: this year the #30 is at 752 854 whereas last year the #30 was at 920 185.
In general, these sales in the first half 2017 are therefore little affected by "anime boost".
The ranking according to the maximum sale of one volume (in brackets the best selling of a volume):
01. One Piece (2,605,418)
02. Shingeki no Kyojin (1,576,240)
03. Tokyo Ghoul:re (868,244)
04. Haikyuu !! (867,000)
05. One Punch-Man (848,678)
06. Kingdom (782,182)
07. Nanatsu no Taizai (663,665)
08. Detective Conan (624,558)
09. Kuroshitsuji (620,152)
10. Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii (610,792)
11. My Hero Academia (563,907)
12. Dungeon Meshi (561,908)
13. Blue Exorcist (543,929)
14. Kimi ni Todoke (529,726)
15. Cardcaptor Sakura: Clear Card-hen (493,613)
Now I'm super satisfied to see P to JK, Kingdom, Wotaku, Boku no Hero doing so well. Also glad for One Piece, but that always does well. Tokyo Tarareba Musume has caught my interest, but sadly no translations or rips from Kodansha are out yet.

Eh, I don't think that's not quite accurate, IIRC Konosuba released a spin-off novel in the same period too. Since this this counting total series sales by that period and not just main volumes that would be included in this number. It's a good showing for both of them though, but this definite shows the strength of Re:Zero's staying power long after the anime has ended.
EDIT: Whoops, looking at the list again the spin-off is counted separately. Weird.

That consistency though.
Yep. Regardless of where it ends up on chart, it is still maintaining it's base. That's excellent sign for longevity.

According to someanithing (http://www.someanithing.com/7331) Moshidora is the best selling LN that ever appeared on MAL with 2,323,668 sales.
I can see Kimi no Na wa reach 2M by the end of the year without a problem but 2,3M+ might be a bit hard.
And it's interesting to see SAO sold around 23,454 copies for each volume outside of volume 19.
Guess it's the boost of the movie, that alone should already already fund a good chunk of it.
And some numbers don't add up.
94,469 No Game No Life: Practical War Game
92,710 No Game No Life: Practical War Game
Shouldn't these be the same?
And Accel World barely sold anything outside the new volume.
93,118 Accel World
91,034 Accel World Vol.21

NGNL Practical war game had two different editions.

while I can't say for certain since I just don't have the information on hand, but iirc this is at least wrong for the monthly reports:
The KonoSuba (main) series as well as the spin-off series are treated as different series in the cumulated series report. I'm fairly sure I have seen both in the list at the same time before as well. So unless for some reason the yearly report treats this differently than the monthly report the number up there should not include the spinoff sales
//edit Oh just doublechecked, it's even in this one lol. KonoSuba at 578,811, spinoff at 168,725
And saw your edit, my bad :P
It kinda feels like Oricon rankings are losing their luster with the prevalence of digital manga now. I really wish we could get rankings that include digital manga, or at the very least a separate ranking for digital manga where we can add up both to see how things go, and to see how different sales are from series to series when comparing physical to digital.
