This took awhile, Publishers Weekly skipped the October series to provide us with data for sales of Manga for the month of November, most likely due to volatility of sales data. I will still be doing the month of October, but it will contain only ICv2’s chart. Anyways the data you find below is all thanks to the amazing guys over at ICv2 and Publishers Weekly. You can subscribe to their services through the links here (ICv2) and here (Publishers Weekly) for more complete data. As a disclaimer, I am not affiliated with any of the two, the links are placed for those who may be interested.
Sales of My Hero Academia volumes continue to be strong in both charts with seven of its volumes listed on ICv2’s. With the Manga coming to an end, it seems that sales of Haikyu! volumes have started to pick up. Seeing how popular Jujutsu Kaisen these days, it will be interesting to see how the title will do in the US. In the month of November, Volume 2 is the only one to make into ICv2’s chart. You can find the chart below here through ICv2.

Note that, My Hero Academia‘s Volume 1, which topped the chart at the time only sold an estimated 8,788 copies (the number tends to be higher). The growth in the amount of copies sold in November could be driven due to Black Friday, and with Christmas fast approaching, the numbers may climb for December as well.
