Sales of Kimetsu no Yaiba related products have risen here as well with the novelization of its theatrical film leading the way, recording above 40% increase in the number of copies sold week-to-week. Titles of the series which were not present in the Top 10 chart the week before have also crawled their way back up occupying spots 7 and 8 (Shiawase no Hana and Katabane no Chou). The other title, Michishirube, which has been on the chart for awhile now saw sales improved by 41.90%, allowing it to take the 5th spot.
It is thanks to the amazing folks over at Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so be sure to head over to their site here and show them lots of love! The data you see below is accessible via Oricon right here.
Apart from that, at number 2, you will find Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e: 2-nensei-hen which latest volume sold 41,997 copies in its first week. Note that, this is lesser than the sales of volume 2 back in June. It is unsure whether the drop could be as a result of Kimetsu no Yaiba, but that could be a potential cause. Volume two sold 61,872 copies in its first week. On the other hand, the 22nd volume of Isekai wa Smartphone to Tomo ni. (No. 9) performed a lot better than its previous volume which sold 4,814 copies during its debut week, the 22nd sold 9,267 copies, a considerable improvement. At number 10 is Tsuki ga Michibiku Isekai Douchuu. Overall, sales of Light Novels in the Top 10 are markedly better week-on-week. For the full list, refer below:
