Japan Top Weekly Manga Ranking: August 24, 2020 ~ August 30, 2020

A rather slow week, sales of titles making the chart the week before are all pretty much down for the week between August 24 to August 30. Kimetsu no Yaiba for instance, is showing signs of calm. While it still remains a heavyweight title as ever, sales as of late have not been as strong. Yet, it remains the top in terms of sales generated during the week. As such, we get to see new titles up in the chart with Honey Lemon Soda at number 1. It sold 73,216 copies that week. The series is followed by Isekai Meikyuu de Harem o at number 2 while Kinou Nani Tabeta? dropped a spot to number 3 for the week.

It is thanks to the amazing folks over at Oricon that we get to see these charts on a weekly basis! So please be sure to head over to their site here, and show them lots of love. The week’s data can be found here for your perusal.

For the period between August 31 to September 6, you may want to keep a look out for Spy x Family’s fifth volume and Boku no Hero Academia’s twenty eighth volume, the two will be releasing on the 4th of September (today!).
