There are not that many new releases making their way onto the Top 20 TSUTAYA chart for the week between February 21 and February 27 as compared to the one before amid the lack of new notable releases. The Top 3 for instance remain unmoved from the week before with Tokyo Revengers holding onto its Number 1 spot. Then, at Number 4 is the debut of Giant Killing Volume 60 which will see 6 days of sales in the upcoming Oricon sales chart. Note that the title last made its appearance for Volume 59 at 70,566 copies sold in its first 5 days, not its best and certainly not its worst either. It failed to chart for Volume 57 due to strong competition from Kimetsu no Yaiba. In 2010, it received an Anime adaptation by Studio Deen and has up to twenty nine volumes published in English by Kodansha.
Skip over to Number 6, and you will find Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun’s 17th volume. The series has been making a more frequent appearance on Oricon’s charts ever since the release of its Anime. Copies sold were strong for Volume 14 after the conclusion of its Anime broadcast to see 77,859 copies sold in just 3 days. Sales settled down a little with Volume 15 at 99,736 copies sold in its first 6 days, but noted a slight climb for Volume 16, which 7-day sales brought in 126,099 copies sold. There are now up to thirteen volumes (including Volume 0) up for grabs in English, so do check it out!
All of the data you find below is all thanks to TSUTAYA, one of Japan’s largest bookstores chain which has around 1,200 stores in its local market. You can check out their website here and show them lots of love! Plus, for the week’s chart, you can find it through the link right here. If Google charts are what you are more comfortable with, feel free to visit the respective chart via the link right at the bottom of the post.
Then, at Number 20 is the 20th volume of Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari, the Manga adaptation of the Light Novel of the same name. Its appearance however, is not as usual having placed recently for its 18th volume at 37,401 copies sold in its first 6 days. Prior to that, it sold 34,633 copies for Volume 15 between February 24 and March 1 in 7 days (it missed out on the chart the week before). In 2019, the title received an Anime adaptation spanning 25 episodes by Kinema Citrus. Then, it was announced that the title is to receive a split cour sequel Anime TV series beginning Spring 2022 for the first part whereas the other is set to commence on an unannounced date. If you missed out on it latest promotional video, do check it out below!
Ashi-Girl which comes in at 12th place is its final volume. The Manga was first serialized via Cocohana magazine back in November 2011 and its final chapter was released in December 2021. You can check out more information about the title right here via its official page and read its first chapter in Japanese right here. A spot below is Coffee & Vanilla Volume 19, a title that has made consistent appearances on Oricon sales charts. Copies sold were on a downtrend from Volume 13 to Volume 17, but managed to recover for Volume 18 as copies sold hit 46,516 copies in its first 4 days, up from Volume 16’s 43,232 copies, but down from Volume 13’s 66,083 copies.
Hakozume: Koban Joshi no Gyakushuu, a title you may be familiar with, is 15th with its 20th volume. The title was last seen with its 19th volume at 31,447 copies sold in its first 7 days. Currently, its Anime TV series adaptation is ongoing, set to end its 13th episode the following month. Finally, at Number 20 is Isekai no Shuyaku wa Wareware da! Volume 10, a series by Gruppen Führer and Yuuji Kamo which is serializing in Comic Flapper. You can check out some of its chapters through Comic Walker right here.
