I missed this one out a while ago. The other chart details the rankings according to series, but at the same time, I believe many people are curious about the individual sales or performance of titles within the half-year. Therefore, I decided to have this one up as well.
It is without a doubt that Kimetsu no Yaiba’s titles trail way up ahead the rest in the chart, dominating the top 2 spots. The sibling titles are followed by OVERLORD which did quite well during the half year, bringing in 207,298 copies sold for its fourteenth volume alone. The rest are all familiar faces, and have all been turned into Anime before. Hopefully, sequels soon for some of the titles. Anyways, below is the full list:
