*9. *88,355 *,454,548 Ao no Exorcist Vol.16 Ao no Exorcist needs s2 badly man.....AMEN!!! |
| Boku dake ga Inai Machi getting a boost, happy to see that. Fairy Tail still hanging in there, and Chihayafuru number 1, happy for that, *prays that Chihayafuru gets licensed in english*. |
| Good post anime boost for Gakkougurashi! v6 did 89K in 2 weeks, v7 has already beaten it in wk1 with almost 93K. Volumes prior to v6 and the anime announcement never ranked at all by the look of it. |

| *2. 170,389 *,170,389 Sakamoto desu ga? Vol.4 final volume of swagamoto sales nice. that's good to hear. 13. *65,371 *,*65,371 Baby Steps Vol.38 well, i don't think there will be season 3, but looking good sales is stll good. 20. *45,520 *,271,965 Gintama Vol.62 ehh... gintama sales is still there. not bad, but not great either looking at number. 50. *19,606 *,*91,961 Saiki Kusuo no Ψ Nan Vol.16 just give us anime adaptation already. i don't even care if it picked up by pierrot or toei. as long as it can be long run and can keep the comedy, i am fine. |

| Yay, It's nice to see Chihayafuru at #1!! Not the biggest sales tho. |
 |
| I'm glad to see Erased doing well. Hopefully the boost gets bigger as the anime continues. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |

That was fast. I wonder if the live action movie that's coming this march will boost it even further like the Orange live action movie. 33. *26,149 *,789,531 Tokyo Ghoul:re Vol.5 Consistent sales so far but I'm more curious to see volume 6's sales since it had some of the best moments in the series. |
| Wow, I'm surprised to see Gakkou Gurashi! that high! I'm very happy about it. |
 *1. 195,065 *,195,065 Chihayafuru Vol.30Absolutely adore it. Chihayafuru is probably the most popular Josei manga ever created; popularity doesn't always mean quality but it is a quality manga. We hardly ever see 5+ volumes for manga dedicated to the said demography, 10+ is even rarer, but to reach 30 volumes and still going so strong, it's an amazing feat. I hope MADHOUSE animates a third season, which is even rarer! |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Happy to see ERASED is getting a nice boost. |
 |
| Seeing Chihayafuru on top is SO SO SO GREAT <3 |

 |
| Snk doing its thing as usual. BTW nanatsu no taizai seems to be having a slow start. *22,751 *,637,665 Nanatsu no Taizai Vol.18 I personally, have lost some interest in this series. |
| Nice to see some manga with currently airing anime already getting a boost. Is that Shinobu with Chihaya on the cover of Chihayafuru? |
| *7. *92,808 *,*92,808 Gakkougurashi! Vol.7 Awesome, wish we could get a second season. Happy to see Fairy Tail, Kekkai Sensen and Gekkan Shoujo still on the list |
 |
| Happy for that Erased boost. Well deserved. I'm loving the anime and am planning to pick up the manga shortly. Now if only Showa could get a big boost. That would really make me happy. |

| Chihayafuru season 3 needed so badly. Great to see Boke dake ga Inai Machi there. Loving the anime a lot so far. |

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 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. |
MichaelMyers100 said: 33. *26,149 *,789,531 Tokyo Ghoul:re Vol.5 I wonder if can make it to next week's list... It all depends on what will be the threshold next week. Each TG;re volume since the second one has sold approximately the same number of copies in its fifth week (26 - 27k) but none of them made a sixth (straight) week on the list. |
| Chihayafuru at #1, nice. Still waiting for chihaya s3 & orange anime, come on ntv/madhouse, you can do it. |
| Imagine a berserk anime by Yoshiaki kawajiri at Madhouse. Now take a look at Berserk (2016). YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO CRY. |

| I dont get this mind set that if there is a super great chapter in a volume then the sales will be greater. I don't know how many buyers follow one piece weekly, but I'm pretty sure its in the minorty, for eg. The average buyers that buys the monthly magazine for snk is like 80k a month. While the majority follows it by buying the tankabon version which is over 2 million. So how the hell would the people that buys only the tankabon volume for one piece would know that luffy would turn into gear 4 in this volume? I can only understand if the buyers were all hype after reading the previous volume, that when the new volume came out they would go and buy it immediately. In most cases these stuff does little effect tbh. I also find it funny how people casually talk about luffy gear 4 in this thread as if everyone is caught up to the manga or anime. I got spoiled about gear 4th along time ago, but you guys should be respectfully and spoiler tag those stuff. |

G4 was a big hype, and OP fanbase is large in Japan, there's no way those tankobon only buyers never heard about it before the volume release. They also could read it from friends who buys weekly magazine. Just because you didn't buy the weekly magazine, doesn't mean you remain unaware about the latest event that happened in weekly magazine. And you could predict which chapter would included in the upcoming volume by counting from the latest volume. And If I'm not mistaken, the publisher give information to the buyers beforehand about which chapter would included in the volume, even OP wikia listed which chapter would included before volume release. |

Weekly shonen jump sells around 2.5 million weekly so 2.5 million people See the new chapter. One Piece volumes sell around 3.2 million by volume so most readers are reading it weekly. Also G 4 was also gea sei in the last chapter of the previous volume 78, so many people were hype for it. |

One Piece magazine has 2.6 Million buyers and is estimated that 10 Million read the magazine every week. Is normal for one magazine to pass by many hands, specially the most popular manga magazine. Also this magazines are placed all over coffee shops and other places where you can go and read, for free!. Here the official info given by the publisher itself: http://adnavi.shueisha.co.jp/mediaguide/2015/pdf/boys.pdf This comment in Weekly Shounen Jump section : "わが国が誇る圧倒的な人気と面白さのコミック誌。 常に超人気作品を生みだし続けて、小、中、高、大 学生、社会人まで含め約1,000万人が読んでいる超 強力メディアです。" Translate to something like this "Comic magazine of overwhelming popularity and fun that our country is proud of. Since ever continues to create super-popular works to elementary, middle, high and college school Students, and even workers making about 10 million people that are reading this Powerful media." Note that Attack on Titan is a niche magazine. So niche that it even his called "Bessatsu" that means "Supplementary". Still just 1 chapter doesn't have that much influence in the numbers. What is most important is the hype/word of mouth around the series at that moment. |

bigivelfhq said: keragamming said: I dont get this mind set that if there is a super great chapter in a volume then the sales will be greater. I don't know how many buyers follow one piece weekly, but I'm pretty sure its in the minorty, for eg. The average buyers that buys the monthly magazine for snk is like 80k a month. While the majority follows it by buying the tankabon version which is over 2 million. So how the hell would the people that buys only the tankabon volume for one piece would know that luffy would turn into gear 4 in this volume? I can only understand if the buyers were all hype after reading the previous volume, that when the new volume came out they would go and buy it immediately. In most cases these stuff does little effect tbh. I also find it funny how people casually talk about luffy gear 4 in this thread as if everyone is caught up to the manga or anime. I got spoiled about gear 4th along time ago, but you guys should be respectfully and spoiler tag those stuff. Attack on Titan and its magazine situation is in no way related with One Piece.

That's why I assume it would be the same for all series. Thank you for clearing that up. |
