TSUTAYA and COMIC ZIN Weekly Tankoubon Sales Ranking via Natalie: August 9, 2021 to August 15, 2021

We are back to a very slow week for TSUTAYA sales chart as only one new release has made onto its chart at Number 2 with the release of Tensei Kenja no Isekai Life: Dai-2 no Shokugyou wo Ete, Sekai Saikyou ni Narimashita Volume 13. The Manga adaptation of the Light Novel of the same name has remained somewhat steady with debut sales of its past titles seeing numbers pushing above the 40,000 copies mark, though the same cannot be said for Volume 10 which failed to rank on Oricon’s weekly chart back between November 2 and November 8 in 2020. The volume however, managed to chart the following week, rising all the way to Number 9 on the list with 51,392 copies sold. It can be assumed, based on performance of Volume 11 and 12 that sales as of Week 2 tends to stick around 80,000 copies to 90,000 copies sold. It will most likely do the same with its 13th volume. In addition, if you are not aware, the title is set to receive an Anime adaptation on an unannounced date.

As for the rest on the list, Boku no Hero Academia Volume 31 maintains its Number 1 spot for the second week, and based on its recent trend, we can expect another strong week for the volume. Tokyo Revengers volumes on the other hand, dominate the remaining spots on the list. There are two titles to look out for that are not on the week’s list, but are strong contenders with high likelihood of appearing on Oricon’s weekly chart this coming Friday. These titles include: Chihayafuru Volume 47 and Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun Volume 13. Without further ado, the full list is as follows:
