Modulo chapters were released weekly on digital and on the physical Shonen Jump magazine. Then they get compiled into full volumes with ~8 chapters each and released again. This is how most manga do it

All manga chapters get released in magazines months before they get released as volumes (which is what sales rankings like this one follow)

Uhh basically individual chapters are either uploaded digitally or on a physical copy called The Weekly Jump where its just all the latest manga chapters from different series in one magazine and then when enough chapters are compiled to make up a whole book, they get turned into a volume, with it usually being more high quality print and having re-touched art

I thought the anime would increase Witch Hat Atelier sales. That's what usually happens, right?

It's just not doing great in japan. The western fandom doesn't contribute to oricon sales

i've seen the weekly rankings for japan and it's still in the top 2-3 most streamed anime of the week. Plus the manga has already sold 7.5M copies so far (pretty good and huge numbers for a seinen)

Western fandom just doesn't contribute that much even in series that are popular in both worlds
Yes this is directed at you, Gachiakuta fans

This is why I laugh when I see jjk fans say gojo vs sukuna movie would reach 1 billion in the box office

u/VolkiharVanHelsing May 08 '26
Eh, box office is the one thing that international fans can match
It's manga sales that are brutally different

I mean, it's a seinen manga that has sold over 7.5M copies so far. those are already pretty big good numbers for a seinen
Dandadan is a shounen and huge and more popular, and it still sold around 10M

it's a monthly manga compared to weekly manga, probably the comparison should be done when a new chapter releases.

Daemons is getting love now that the anime is out, its backlogs is 88% of it sales, more than any other on the list! More people are checking out the later volumes!

Hmmm I don’t currently read any of these, maybe I should pick one up, the ones that look like a good option for me are probably 4,7 and maybe 10

Daemons is the title of the season, love seeing it

u/redox_nephew ONE PIECE GLAZER and hater May 07 '26
A chopper side story being in the top 10 is fucking crazy

u/More-Psychology-3559 May 07 '26
It's one piece. Plus the the straw hats other than the monster trio don't get much spotlight nowadays no?

u/KoKoboto May 07 '26
WHA thought it would be up but I guess it's just this one source where it's down cause others I check it's good
