The chart between September 28 to October 4 really packs a punch with Shueisha leading in the Top 10. Titles from the publishing company occupy nine out of ten of the spots with of course, the highly anticipated Kimetsu no Yaiba taking the crown. Both the Regular and Standard Editions of the title’s 22nd volume sold 2,204,279 copies in its first week, which is a lot better than volume 21’s performance back in July. As a result, Kimetsu no Yaiba brought home 2,630.1 million yen worth of sales that week (inclusive of tax).
It is thanks to the amazing 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! The week’s data is available through the links here (Manga) and here (Series).
A rather exciting week indeed, other than Kimetsu no Yaiba, a slew of new volumes of series many people know of are in the Top 10, this includes Yakusoku no Neverland’s 20th volume which debuted at 265,198 copies sold. Note that, this is the final volume, and would be a good chance for those who intend to pick up the title for reading. Burn the Witch which Anime was recently aired via Crunchyroll fell short of the 100,000 copies sold mark to settle for the 5th place, selling 86,066 copies in its first week.
