JJK after 16 episodes: 601,031 members
AOT S4 after 7 episodes: 601,051 members

Holy shit. I've never watched a sequel catch up to a new rapidly expanding show. AOT is just on whole another level bruh. 😂😂😂




Edit:I meant that AOT S4 has surpassed the number of members on MAL compared to JJK, not overall popularity lmao. The overall popularity of solely S4 compared to JJK is questionable. But still, I believe since it's AOT we are talking about, it won't take much time for it to catch up to JJK.

Well, I meant only the last season. I do realize that the hype has been since 2013, but man, the rate of growth of members for S4 at MAL has been just insane.

more hyped ? lmaoo, 3 episode of this season achieved a 9.9 rating on imdb, became the 2nd most popular show on MAL, episode 5 broke karma records on r/anime , and every episode got 150k+ tweets. Even with an average adaptation aot is literally shitting on jujutsu in term of hype/popularity ( worldwide).

Jujutsu Kaisen Manga sales a lot more than Shingeki no Kyojin Manga.

For me Jujutsu Kaisen is another bland overhyped & overrated generic shounen show.

I didn't found anything unique or interesting unlike other shounens.

Have to agree on this. Even if JJK's manga sales have boosted a lot due to anime, that's more or less it. AOT S4 has boosted manga sales, as well as is breaking records like hell in all places: Twitter, MAL, IMDB and even Reddit.

Attack on Titan is currently the most popular anime on the planet. I don't think that's ever been in doubt.

How do I know? It trends on social media worldwide every week with over 200k tweets. It trended last week with over 300k tweets. Even Demon Slayer Episode 19 (supposedly one of the biggest hype moments ever) couldn't manage that (275k tweets). It's even out-trending WandaVision when it airs, which is one of the most popular western TV shows at the moment.

It's Google Trends statistics are as high as they've ever been.

It destroys records on every single forum online.

I've never seen a single JJK episode trend worldwide.

However, JJK is undoubtedly more popular in Japan with manga sales, blu-ray sales and TV ratings. It's also only 16 episodes into it's anime run, whereas Attack on Titan is on it's 68th episode.

Globally though, it's a no-brainer.

New series generally has more members than sequel especially a series that is at essentially it's 4th season which is snk. Demon Slayer for example has more members then season 3 part 2 which is understandable because it's a fresh new series that is really popular. So it will easily get more members.

But I never expected the final season to have more members already against a brand new popular series.

That's the impressive thing here.

Op is talking about members not ratings, read what I wrote to the other person's for clarity.

@Okeanix

That's nothing new, it's a brand new series and it's getting an anime so it will have a big boost, snk already got it's big boost years ago.

@xenosys

What you are saying is correct, but a bit misleading as snk overall has more manga sales and even Blu Ray sales than jjk, it's a new series so it's currently doing better than snk in Japan and it's the new trend right now.

But what you say about the manga sales would be the same as saying jjk is more popular than one piece.

Right now, at this moment, Attack on Titan CERTAINLY has more hype than Demon Slayer, I'm not talking about Japan but WORLDWIDE. If AoT had a movie, it would've broken records FOR SURE.

Yesterday my English teacher asked if I heard of an anime called Attack on Titan, I asked him where did he hear about AoT from and he said that it's all over Facebook, and he doesn't even follow anime.

I'll say it again for you folks, CURRENTLY, Attack on Titan is the MOST popular anime, Jujutsu Kaisen is a small fry compared to it's growing popularity.

Attack on Titan popularity has surpassed Death Note highest popularity ever was, we're all agreed that Attack on Titan is more popular outside anime community itself(eventhough it's one of the most popular in the anime community) and that's the reason why on these kind of things AoT always won.

JJK is only ahead of AOT in terms of the manga sales (Good job MAPPA and Gege Akutami👏) , but that's literally it. AOT is leaps and bounds ahead in almost everything. And even if what you say is correct, that there are a lot of bot accounts, I don't think that it's so much as you are making it out to be. And even if still JJK is ahead of AOT if we remove bot accounts, the current momentum of AOT's hype will still surpass JJK in no time. It's just a matter of waiting. No offense intended.

the international market is irrelevant, except for the streaming licenses which are paid in advance so it is irrelevant. SnK in japan is doing decently but nothing exceptional JJK (although I don't like it that much) is making numbers like Demon Slayer, the comparison with SnK is ridiculous except for the fanboys who think that reddit counts for something (in japan they don't even know what it is LOL). I think the self-love of Westerners in thinking the world revolves around them is ridiculous.

I don't want to say this but everytime I see how much more MAPPA has invested in jujutsu in terms of sakuga and colouring( sadly, more than AOT) , it always reminds me of all the corners they had to cut in AOT in terms of sakuga.. Maybe I am absolutely in the wrong here and it maybe due to the time constraints bit still.. Who knows.. Lol

the world revolves around the world lol. AOT is the number 1 most popular anime in the world by fare. Most popular on any platform, and as a consequence people from all around the world will be buying the manga. Starting with me and 4 people i know, who haven't watched a single anime in their entire life. They will buy 33 volumes of AOT. It is simple stuff

all the people in the world who follow anime and manga do not even make up half of the Japanese audience so it is irrelevant at a numerical level JJK is bigger than SnK, look at the American sales charts and compare them with the Japanese ones, the Japanese market is 50 times bigger.

Attack on Titan is currently the most popular anime on the planet. I don't think that's ever been in doubt.

How do I know? It trends on social media worldwide every week with over 200k tweets. It trended last week with over 300k tweets. Even Demon Slayer Episode 19 (supposedly one of the biggest hype moments ever) couldn't manage that (275k tweets). It's even out-trending WandaVision when it airs, which is one of the most popular western TV shows at the moment.

It's Google Trends statistics are as high as they've ever been.

It destroys records on every single forum online.

I've never seen a single JJK episode trend worldwide.

However, JJK is undoubtedly more popular in Japan with manga sales, blu-ray sales and TV ratings. It's also only 16 episodes into it's anime run, whereas Attack on Titan is on it's 68th episode.

Globally though, it's a no-brainer.

the international market is irrelevant, except for the streaming licenses which are paid in advance so it is irrelevant. SnK in japan is doing decently but nothing exceptional JJK (although I don't like it that much) is making numbers like Demon Slayer, the comparison with SnK is ridiculous except for the fanboys who think that reddit counts for something (in japan they don't even know what it is LOL). I think the egotism of Westerners in thinking the world revolves around them is ridiculous.


At which point have I ever implied the world revolves around westerners? I've already pointed out that JJK is more popular than SnK in Japan right now through manga sales, BD-sales, merchandising etc. Demon Slayer is obviously the same, if not more so.

SnK is the biggest anime in the world right now. I've already provided evidence to support this. What evidence do you have to support your claim otherwise? Or are you just going to launch more ad-hominems?

Quoting statistics in Japan doesn't prove your point. The world is a big place.

tbh, jjk is mediocre at best, it's just good shounen, but nothing special, at least for now. AOT is just on another level
