When was the last time we saw a series on a sales streak as consistent as Kimetsu no Yaiba? Other than this week’s crown that is One Piece. Kimetsu no Yaiba has been selling really well across all of its volumes with all of them making into this week’s list. Despite not being able to sell as many as One Piece could, every week, the series has shown enough vigour to say that it is not backing down from a fight. It is not just the fame series that is selling like hot cakes but, the success of Kimetsu no Yaiba has rippled over onto the other works related or done by Koyoharu Gotouge causing success in sales such as in this week’s ranking, Gotouge Koyoharu Tanpenshuu (No. 5) a collection of short stories done by Gotouge. It is interesting to see nevertheless, if Kimetsu no Yaiba may be the one to break One Piece’s record one day. For the complete list, please visit Oricon here.
