Looks like Haikyuu!! went full throttle the week between August 3 to August 9. It not only topped the Manga sales chart, but is also number 1 for Light Novel according to Oricon here. Kimetsu no Yaiba Kaze no Michishirube’s sales is down 1% giving way to Haikyuu!! Shousetsu-ban!! and Ryuuou no Oshigoto! which comes in at number 2.
It is thanks to the awesome folks at Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so please be sure to head over to their site here and show them tonnes of love!
While most of Kimetsu no Yaiba’s novels have dropped in rank, sales have improved for Shiawase no Hana and Katabane no Chou. Hige wo Soru. Soshite Joshikousei wo Hirou. which was 2nd the prior week, fell four spots to number 6, however sales have climbed for the title by about 15%. There are several new titles making into the charts, most noticeably Hataraku Maou-sama! (No. 10) which Anime I enjoyed a lot. Though… it seems unlikely that a new season will follow. Let’s hope for the best. Anyways, full list is as follows:
