Oricon has released its weekly top Manga sales for the first week of August 2019 via their site. This time we see Deku and his friends topping this week’s list (Boku no Hero Academia) while One Piece 93 is still hanging in there in number 10. Its quite sad that Gintama is finally over, but I am glad that it’s still doing well in Japan. For the full list, do visit Oricon through the link attached.

As for what to get, many of the series in the list are actually pretty good in my opinion. But, I highly recommend Yakusoku no Neverland and Saint☆Oniisan for those of you who are interested in trying out something new. If you noticed anything off about the list, please do not hesitate to let me know.
