Sales are a little on a downside for Light Novels sold in Japan nationwide for the period between February 10 and February 16 according to Oricon here. It is thanks to Oricon that we are able to view some of the data for weekly charts for free, so please do pay them a visit!
The top 10 weekly Light Novels chart saw a few new titles breaching the list with Ryuo no Oshigoto! Vol. 12’s regular and limited edition at number 3 and 7 respectively. The latest volume of Goblin Slayer made a modest debut at number 6 while Isekai Tensei No Boken Sha occupies the number 10 spot. Unfortunately, Wotakoi: Love Is Hard for Otaku Novel Edition and Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e Ninensei-hen were ejected from the list. The week before, they were at number 7 and 8 respectively.
Although Kimetsu no Yaiba Shiawase no Hana and Kimetsu no Yaiba Katabane no Chou still occupy the number 1 and 2 spots, sales are down by almost 20% with the two managing a combined 53,176 copies sold for the week. For the full list, it is as follows:
