5-toubun no Hanayome and Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai remain steady as they head into their second week while maintaining their presence in the top 10 ranking according to the latest Manga sales chart accessible via Oricon here. Better, 5-toubun no Hanayome’s Standard Edition climbed a spot to occupy the 2nd position while Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai jumped the biggest of the two, going up 3 spots from 6th the previous week to 3rd. Sales have declined for the two titles with the Special Edition of 5-toubun no Hanayome’s 14th volume falling the largest. Cumulatively, 5-toubun no Hanayome Volume 14 has sold 413,875 copies as of April 26. At the same time, Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai has sold 195,182 copies.

It is thanks to Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis, so be sure to head over to their site and show them your support here!

Taking the top spot for the period between April 20 to April 26 is Shuumatsu no Walküre selling 105,090 copies for the week. The Manga entails a story, a battle between the Gods and humans. More info can be obtained here and here about the title. However, Shuumatsu no Walküre is not alone for the week as it is accompanied by another new title which sits at number 4. The 32nd volume of Akatsuki no Yona which sold 81,000 copies for the week.

All volumes of Kimetsu no Yaiba are accounted for the week as it sees a fair rise in sales. The 20th volume of the title is expected to release this coming 13th of May, we can expect some build up in terms of sales till the week. Unfortunately, Detective Conan, Shingeki no Kyojin, Diamond no Ace Act II and ONE PIECE could not retain their positions after stumbling considerably out of the top 10 to number 11, 14, 15 and 29 respectively.
