Analysis

Detective Conan Volume 103 has had a slow start in sales, ranking as the second worst performing volume in the series when considering the first 5 days of sales since Volume 97. The volume sold 234,758 copies, which represents a decline of 8.60%, 18.62%, and 7.54% compared to Volume 97, 99, and 101, respectively. However, it did outpace Volume 98, which sold 204,698 copies, by 14.69%. Despite this slow start, the series as a whole has remained fairly stable in terms of sales. For instance, Volume 100 sold 288,562 copies in 7 days, and Volume 102 sold 197,629 copies in its first 4 days, suggesting that the overall performance of the series has not been significantly affected.

Gokurakugai Volume 2 has sold 50,312 copies in its first 13 days.


According to the weekly series Oricon sales chart, the Ultraman Series has taken the top spot, generating sales worth 267.21 million yen (≈1.20 million USD). The series’ discs were the main driver of sales, with a total of 41,748 copies sold within the first five days of release. The Blu-ray editions accounted for 33,544 of the total copies sold, while the DVDs made up the remaining 8,204 copies. Apart from the Video segment, other factors such as Music, Books, Novels, and Manga also contributed to the sales.

At second place is Detective Conan, which is not surprising given its strong performance in the Manga Top 30 sales chart for the week. The sales of Volume 103 propelled the series to a total of 243.72 million yen (≈1.82 million USD) for the week, with the Manga segment being the biggest contributor to sales. Along with Manga, Detective Conan also saw sales in Video, Music, Books, and Novels.
