Sankarea got a bit of a boost, didn't it? Chihayafuru kicking Fairy Tail's ass, it sure is popular. |
I wonder when that Nadeshiko manga is going to end.. if ever. |
jmal said: Fairy Tail still sells more overall. Latest numbers 9I think) for the previous volume: *8, *,*59,271 *,453,940 Fairy Tail vol.32 That's like 100-150k more than most Chihayafuru volumes do, if I remember correctly. I think this week was only just a partial week for FT or something. Sometimes titles have smaller first weeks and relatively large second weeks, an sometimes they do most of the sales in an extra big first week. I'm guessing there's some reason related to distribution schedules and release dates and whatever, but big sellers like Chihayafuru and Fairy Tail should only be compared after 2-3 weeks. I actually did think that it was quite weak for its first week and in the end it will sell more copies than Chihayafuru but hey, it did beat FT. |
Zhou said: Chihayafuru kicking Fairy Tail's ass, it sure is popular. I have about the same amount of respect for both series but I have to say it's a bit unfair since Chihayafuru's volume came out 2 days before FT (Ft came out on the 15th - so here are the sales it made in 3 days - and Ch came out on 13th - so here are the sales it made in 5 days) so it has 2 days of advantage which in the release week represents a lot of volumes. Besides even considering only the numbers here and not forgetting you should add the sales of the volume with the dvd for the comparison, since it's the same volume after all, FT would lose by something like 10k sales. That plus the 2 day thing makes the expression kicking ass a bit unfair. But, on the other hand... Chihayafuru is Josei, a genre that, on average, sells a lot less than shounen so considering it actually has these sales surpassing most shounen, it is more mention worthy than FT's sale. I just realized I wrote too much over such a trifle matter. I apologize for that. |
Grabbing Taiyou no Ie from that list. |

Are you taking this into consideration? *1, 222,909 *,222,909 Chihayafuru, Vol. 17 *2, 172,046 *,172,046 Fairy Tail, Vol. 33 16, *45,380 *,*45,380 Fairy Tail Special Edition with DVD, Vol. 33 Granted that only brings Fairy Tail to 217,426 copies to Chihayafuru's 222,909, but the measly 5,483 copy difference is easily made up in the long run. |
GrayArchon said: Are you taking this into consideration? Nope, it just looks nice for Chihayafuru to be ahead of Fairy Tail even if that is going to change next week. |
There are interesting titles on the list: kyou koi and fairy tail are two examples of goo mangas. |
222,909 sales in one week for Chihayafuru , that's impressive. Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
at least Claymore is there getting good sales |
Good to see Conan and Initial D. |
fairy tail doing good.. also.. gotta watch chihayafuru   |
Fairy tail,Bleach and Air gear doing good.Can't wait for the new work from Oh! Great  |
Fairy Tail and Air Gear(R.I.P) :( In the near future, Code:Breaker will also be appearing frequently on these rankings Modified by Gatchum_Bye-Bye, Jun 20, 2012 10:14 PM |
Incidentally, what's the best selling Josei manga ever and how close to the title is Chihayafuru? I know Sazae-san is listed as Josei, but that's well known for the anime, not the manga - which ended almost 40 years ago. Bestselling light novel volumes of the year/all time* (and more in the same club including weekly series ranks etc). <-- No longer being updated. Sorry. *that there is data for There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
kuuderes_shadow said: Incidentally, what's the best selling Josei manga ever and how close to the title is Chihayafuru? I have no idea about all time best sellers, but in recent years Nodame Cantabile was averaging over 1 million per volume. |
Icebreaker93 said: Can't wait for the new work from Oh! Great This. I just hope that when it's there it get's picked up by English publishers quick enough, I don't read scanlations.      |
Nice, Chihayafuru's sellings are very good. One piece volume 66 sold 3 million :D  |
Grats to Katekyo Hitman Reborn for getting into the rankings  |
w00t Chihayafuru on top. Plus, Kuroshitsuji :) sweet "To define is to limit." --Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray |
Oh noez.Bleach is not no.1 -sob- Well, 4 is still good <3 and FT 2#, yay.  |
kuuderes_shadow said: Incidentally, what's the best selling Josei manga ever and how close to the title is Chihayafuru? NANA. It sold as much as One Piece: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-12-19/2008-yearly-japanese-comic-ranking-no.1-25 |
...and now make a bloody season 2 for chihaya! |
Chihayafuru means business.  |
Chihayafuru show who's the boss this week... Super manga, good anime... and now we just need to wait for season 2... chi-chan i'll be waiting XD  Objective & Obviously Best Girl Association. |
Definitely going to move up Chihayafuru on my PTW list. Also good to see Claymore is selling decently. I'm seriously hoping they'll give it a FMA:Brotherhood treatment as it gets closer to ending.  |
