Hajime Isayama ends his long-running series with a BANG as the final volume sold a cumulative (including the Special Edition) 897,677 copies. Previous volumes have averaged around 430,000 copies sold, therefore this is a massive jump in sales for the title, nearly 50% up from Volume 33 in its first week. If you go all the way to number 12, you will find the Character Book for the series selling at a good 52,036 copies. It also seems that the final volume has spurred sales of other volumes that came before, including Volume 33 which came in at 18th place for the week.

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 lots of love! Plus, all the data you find below is accessible via Oricon right here (Manga) and here (Series).
At number 6 is Arslan Senki‘s Volume 15 which experienced better sales debut-to-debut over Volume 13. Note that Volume 13 did have a poor turnout in its first week, but sales recovered the week after to see its two-week sales at 141,712 copies sold. Volume 15 is has its best debut sales so far among its latest four volumes selling 110,047 copies, compared to its second best seller, Volume 14 at 107,521 copies.

Kami-tachi ni Hirowareta Otoko‘s Volume 7 debuts with 79,328 copies in its first week, something that is much welcome after a hard time it experienced with Volume 6, which did not make onto Oricon’s Top 30 the year before. Do not forget the upcoming sequel to be released on an unannounced date if you are a fan of the series.
The other new release making onto the chart for the week is Mairimashita! Iruma-kun‘s Volume 22. Number of copies sold has improved debut-to-debut over sales of Volume 21, which sold 63,609 copies. Jumping 17.51%, in sales for its 22nd volume over its last, its 77,115 copies sold is only a shy away from hitting the highs of Volume 20 that sold 81,747 copies in its first week.

As for the rest, most new releases that made onto the chart the week before are down week-on-week with Jujutsu Kaisen‘s Volume 16 dropping two spots to number 3, allowing One Piece to retain its 2nd position. Two-week sales for the two are now at 1,519,819 copies and 1,418,152 copies respectively. Spy x Family Volume 7 saw number of copies sold falling 57.23% from last week’s 498,984 copies, however its two-week sales have now reached 712,393 copies! Impressive for a new series. Kaijuu 8-gou Volume 3 and Dr. Stone Volume 21 both stumbled modestly by 35.02% and 33.76% each. Without further ado, the full list is as follows:
