I was expecting sales for Jujutsu Kaisen to drop the previous week seeing how it was fluctuating the weeks between January 11 to February 14, however it managed to drive sales up for the week between February 15 to February 21. Total sold for Volume 1 to Volume 14 were 1,420,893 copies that week, up 0.26% from the week before, and now sales for all of its volumes have calmed down to settle the week at 1,046,781 copies sold.
It is thanks to the wonderful 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 some love! Plus, all the data you find below can be found via Oricon right here (Series) and here (Manga).
The two-week sales for Kaguya-sama‘s Volume 21 are down from copies sold achieved by Volume 20, though the stronger second week sales for Volume 21 helped to narrow the difference between the two. The two-weeks sales for Volume 20 and Volume 21 are 243,878 copies and 230,551 copies respectively with Volume 18 remaining as the weakest performer thus far among the seven latest volumes.
The Top 10 chart features three new release, all occupying the Top 3 spots with Yotsuba to! leading the list with 194,159 copies. A fine performance considering the last appearance it made was back in 2018 with the release of Volume 14. At second place is the 10th volume of Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii which debuted at a welcoming 143,357 copies, but debut sales for Volume 10 is much lower than sales posted by Volume 9 in its first week. Volume 9 debuted with 215,828 copies sold, while Volume 8 debuted with 178,357 copies.
Nevertheless, it is good news for Uchuu Kyoudai which trails the two at number 3 for the week. Sales are strong for Volume 39 in its first week as it posted the strongest debut sales so far of all the latest four volumes. Volume 38 sold 109,625 copies in its first week, thus putting Volume 39 23.05% higher. We will probably have to wait till the second week to have a better grasp on the performance, till then, this trend is much appreciated.
Without further ado, the full list is as follows:
