Chainsaw Man made some really great stride — largely thanks to its Anime — as it headed into the month of November with nearly all volumes (those available) up from the month before as its 1st volume tops the Publishers Weekly’s list at 40,453 copies, 56.86% more than what it did in October. The month witnessed only one new release on the list that being Hayao Miyazaki’s Shuna’s Journey at Number 4 with 25,449 copies sold in its first 33 days. Oddly enough, I do not recall seeing the volume between October 30 and November 5, where I may have missed it.

Please note that Publishers Weekly tracked one week longer than ICv2, therefore the positions will be slightly different than the above.
