I guess not only sales of Manga are experiencing a slowdown, the same can be said about sales of Light Novels for the week between July 27 to August 2 according to Oricon’s latest chart here. All of Kimetsu no Yaiba’s titles have faced a decline with Kyoudai no Kizuna to Oni Korosetai hen dropping the biggest. Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou which was at number 2 the week before, dropped 3 spots to number 5 after experiencing a 63% drop in sales.
It is thanks to Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so be sure to head over to Oricon here and shower those wonderful folks with lots of love!
