The 2nd season will ensure another boost. The trailer looks amazing:

Wow. This now makes it the 8th best selling manga of all time, surpassing the lifetime sales of the Bleach manga and the Slam Dunk manga.

just because you don't like it doesn't mean that others can't like it too. let people have their own tastes

Well, even the prestigious Time Magazine acknowledges Gotouge's achievement by listing the author in Time 100 Next of 2021 under the Phenoms Category. https://twitter.com/VIZMedia/status/1362024216321785865?s=20

Therefore, I believe the series is not as terrible as some readers complain. Like the story or not is personal choice, but in the end, a worldwide nomination from critics like this certainly puts more weight in the cultural value of a series.

By the way, Viz just announces that KNY has 1 million copy in print in the regions Viz publishes.

not really. a lot of people consider it to be a very good manga and the massive boom in volume sales and box office numbers in japan just shows it

The amount of sales and numbers it does doesn’t dictate quality. Naruto has sold 250 million worldwide but it’s still dogshit.

Umm what??? What's next? "Kimetsu no Yaiba" is going to surpass "Naruto" in total manga sales?? Oh wait it's going to happen isn't it? Lmao I don't even know what the proper reaction to this is. Congrats to the author though. They probably can't believe it themselves lol
JJK fans are toxic.

Have u ever considered that maybe your tastes are bad. I don’t even want to go there since everyone has their unique tastes, but if you’re gonna diss everyone else’s taste, especially for something this popular. U should look at yourself first because you’re probably in the minority on this one.
