TSUTAYA Weekly Tankoubon Sales Ranking: June 20, 2022 to June 26, 2022

Manga sales via TSUTAYA stores see many titles that made their debuts the week before steadfast in their positions, but the Spy x Family series has completely retreated from the Top 20 after weeks of dominance. Nevertheless, there are still many new releases to be found for the week between June 20 and June 29, starting with Shuumatsu no Walküre Volume 15 at Number 3 at 7 days of sales. The series has been consistently charting since its 6th volume on Oricon Top 30 sales charts and the last time it had a full week of sales was for Volumes 6 and 13 which copies sold were at 105,090 copies and 180,787 copies sold respectively back in April 2020 and December 2021. Serialization began for the title in November 2017 through Comic Zenon with some of its chapters available for reading right here in Japanese for free. The work was also adapted into a 12-episode Anime series by studio Graphinica which aired on June 17 last year. A sequel was also announced in August the same year bound for 2023.

Kusuriya no Hitorigoto which comes in 4th on the list is certainly a title to keep a close eye on considering its stellar performance as of its past four volumes. Prior to this, its 6-day sales for Volume 8 hit 225,257 copies sold back in May last year, slightly less than the 214,896 copies it had for Volume 7 at 5 days of sales, nevertheless still a welcoming turnout.

Skip Beat! is 9th on the list with its 48th volume at 7 days of sales as well. Its sales performance had seen a consistent placement of its 44th, 45th and 46th volume, but Volume 47 missed out on the Top 30 in its first 3 days of release, only to appear the week after at 51,469 copies sold. With a full week of sales, the number of copies sold is expected to achieve around 100,000. Skip Beat! is a long-running series published by Hakusensha that has been ongoing since February 2002.
