Compared to its past volumes with 5 days of sales, Mairimashita! Iruma-kun Volume 31 sold 112.72% and 21.65% more than Volume 16 and 27, respectively. Additionally, it has sold more than Volumes 17 to 20, 22, and 24, all of which had longer days of sales than Volume 31. For example, Volume 17, 20, and 24 had 7 days of sales, while Volumes 18, 19, and 22 had 6 days of sales. Had it been charted for two more days, Volume 31 would have sold more than 100,000 copies, surpassing the 96,061 copies sold by Volume 28 in its first 7 days. As such, this could very well be the best-performing volume to date since Volume 16.

The first season aired from October 2019 to March 2020, while the second season aired from April to September 2021.

Makai no Shuyaku wa Wareware da! Volume 13 does not have any direct comparisons in its first 5 days. However, if the volume had charted for two more days, it would have seen a stronger outcome than Volumes 7 and 10, both of which had their first 7 days of sales counted. Nevertheless, it may not be able to surpass Volumes 2 to 4, which had better performances in their first 6 and 7 days (for Volume 4). Despite this, the latest performance is still higher than Volume 1, which sold 65,196 copies in its first 7 days.

Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! Volume 10 has sold 28.69% fewer copies against Volume 7’s 52,756 copies, both in their first 4 days. This latest performance for the series in Japan (in terms of physical copies sold tracked by Oricon) is also less than Volume 2’s 38,622 copies in its first 3 days and only represents a small improvement over Volume 9’s 37,427 copies sold, also in its first 3 days. This marks the weakest turnout the series has ever seen since Volume 2.

Volume 11 sold slightly less than Volume 10’s 39,339 copies in its first 7 days, and even if it were to have an extra day of sales, it is unlikely to surpass the sales of Volume 10.

Please note that the Special Edition of Volume 19 did not appear on either the Oricon Top 30 or Top 50 Manga sales chart for the week. When compared to Volume 18, which also did not include a Special Edition, the latest volume sold 5.15% less. If the Special Edition had made it onto the lower ranking of 51 to 100 (the cutoff point on the Top 50 chart for the week being 12,809 copies), it may have sold approximately 10,000 copies, which would put the total number of copies sold higher than Volume 16 in its first 3 days.

It’s worth noting that the Special Edition did not make it onto either the Top 30 or Top 50 Manga sales charts for the week. Even if it had sold in the lower 51 to 100 range, it would have likely sold around 10,000 copies, which is still less than the other volumes in terms of copies sold. However, the Special Edition may have generated more revenue compared to other volumes.
