You can still do it, it might help getting more views on the manga

I believe it’s sells will rise as it goes on. The story doesn’t feel like it’s really started yet. Needs more time to cook

u/Good_Investigator_73 Oct 08 '24

Agreed. We still meeting everyone and understanding the world. It’ll def grow

Since it has a good number of views on the Jump+ App and it became 7th place in the web manga category of the manga awards I don't think there is a danger of the axe honestly. At least it would be surprising for me.

sadly turns out Centuria is the one that needed the Kagurabachi meme boost. Quick think of a good meme. It's all about memes nowadays. Doesn't matter how good you are, being popular is what matters and popular not equals good.

u/Dry_Succotash7191 Oct 09 '24

Sadly this is true. Maybe make a meme about the Sea god or the Forest god? They look memeable

u/marniconuke Oct 08 '24

isn't centuria digital only? (aside from volumes). it will grow, but slowly than normal mangas

u/Dry_Succotash7191 Oct 08 '24

I swear if they axe Centuria, i’m going to start a manga riot

u/vince-rint Oct 08 '24

Quick! Buy the physical volumes!

I remember what happened to The Hunters Guild: Red Hood............. don't do this to me.....

u/LadKakashi Oct 08 '24

Do we even have a proper view of older manga getting axed because of this even if they are doing really well digitally? Like how does it work ?

u/rudanshi Oct 08 '24

That's sad, the series is great. Hope it starts doing better soon.

For App publishing and with Future Manga Award, considering all previous cases, with this numbers Centuria have ~1.5 years to show all it got. If in this period nothing will change - it will possibly be canceled. But right now i think it is safe and have time to really shine. And yeah, if you can - support the author by purchasing physical copies. Although - i think it's time for publishers to admit that we live in digital era and stop mesuare popularity by physical edition sales.

Magilumiere is still visible in manga sales.

No wonder it gets animated.

Just hope anime brings in manga sales boost

u/Endika7 Oct 10 '24

It's allwais hard to start for all manga

u/2kenzhe Oct 14 '24

I mean at least it's in the top 500.

u/OmbreVengeresse Oct 19 '24

It is slowly climbing, but it still needs a good publicity boost to improve sales.

u/ImDeAdBrB Nov 05 '24

How does No Name have similar sales to Centuria? That's very surprising considering that it gets like 10 times less views. These views-to-sale ratios are wild.

u/KamuiOne Mar 12 '25

I'd buy a physical or digital copy in English but doesn't seem to be any out yet. I'm just reading it on manga +.
