It is also worth noting that the data presented on both ICv2 and Publishers Weekly come from The NPD Group, more specifically through their subsidiary, Circana BookScan. The entity uses point of sale (POS) to track sales of products, but it does not cover the entirety of the US market since some stores do not participate in Circana’s daily reporting. As of the time of writing, according to NPD’s webpage, the Circana BookScan only covers approximately 85% of the total trade print books sold in the country.

Additional Comments
The last time any of One Piece’s recent volumes were featured within the Top 10 list of comics sold in the US as tracked via Publishers Weekly was for Volume 100 back in August 2022. Since 2020, this would be the first time One Piece has clinched the Number 1 spot and considering the shorter days of sales that Volume 102 has here which is 26 days over Volume 100’s 33 days, this could be the series’ best turnout so far since the Blog began tracking in 2020.

Analysis
When compared to its previous three volumes which were also at 19 days of sales when they were charted on their own respective monthly charts, Volume 6 has sold 27.20%, 7.88% and 2.16% fewer copies than Volume 3 to Volume 5. Prior to that, the work was seen with Volume 2 at 23,793 copies sold in its first 26 days back in April 2022. The latest performance further fortifies the fact that the series is in a slight downtrend in the US in terms of physical sales.

Additional Comments
The last time My Dress-Up Darling sits within Publishers Weekly’s most upper ranks was for Volume 7 back in February 2023. At the time, the volume sold 14,777 copies within its first 33 days. Therefore, Volume 8’s 9,931 copies sold is not too bad at all considering its 19 days of sales here, in fact, it may have very likely surpassed the previous volume’s sales as of the 33rd day.
