Japan Top 10 Weekly Light Novel Ranking: April 13, 2020 ~ April 19, 2020

 

The names of those involved in Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru anthologies are giving me a heart attack. I apologize if there are any mistakes. Please do let me know if I got any of the names wrong and I’ll fix them up right away!

The week between April 13 and April 19 saw Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei still retaining its top spot, but sales have gone down by about 37%. Likewise, the two novels of Kimetsu no Yaiba which are trailing closely behind Mahouka also faced a decline despite the slight positive increment they experienced the week before. Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken and ONE PIECE novel LAW are still hanging in to the top 10 although sales have plummeted quite considerably. As a result, they occupy the 9th and 10th spot respectively. The 10th volume of Sword Art Online Alternative is another novel that saw a drop in sales, yet it is able to maintain its 5th spot (the same as the week before).

The chart saw a handful of new titles making into the list including Otonari no Tenshi-sama ni Itsu no Ma ni ka Dame Ningen ni Sareteita Ken (No. 4), the two anthologies of SNAFU (No. 6 and 7) and Otogibanashi no Tsuzuki, Hajimemashita. (No. 8). The information are accesible here. It is thanks to Oricon that we are able to see these charts on a weekly basis, so why not head over to Oricon here and show them your support!
