My Hero Academia : 8 volumes : 4 200 000.

 

[SharkBait]

Ill predict the anime will cause a modest increase in heroaca volumes so I anticipate it to reach 7mln by EoY end of year.

 

[susanoo13]

So I will bet on 9M for 11 volumes at least. This really could turn up being the next 1M seller.

Lol no. The manga will sell more than 1mil per volume.

 

[SharkBait]

Lol no. The manga will sell more than 1mil per volume.

I think my prediction is realistic, in incorporates new volumes growing to about 600K and old ones increasing by at least 100K or so respectively. Expecting it to double this year is a bit too generous for me when it isnt as good as Haikyuu.

800k this year, at least 1 million next year, nichigo is too strong....

Problem is the short list of episodes..... I have a hard time seeing Bones not screw this up somehow. By this, I mean turning the property into Jump's new cash cow. I'm sure the higher-ups at Jump/Shueisha are putting some pressure on them. I don't think they'll settle for anything less than 750k or even worse a miilion.

I definitely think they're setting the bar very high.

Sorry man but you don't get it. The manga is selling way better than Haikyuu now. The anime will make it the biggest manga of 2016.

I don't know if you're talking of current Haikyuu vs current My Hero Academia or if you're talking of vol.8 My Hero Academia vs vol.8 Haikyuu.

If you're talking of currently, My Hero Academia is far away from haikyuu!! Haikyuu!! sells two times more.
If you're talking of vol.8, Haikyuu!! was definitely selling less. In terms of overall print numbers, Haikyuu!! reached 4 Million copies in volume 9 and in 10 it got 5.5 Million. For now My Hero Academia is winning the race with 4.2 Million in volume 8.

Note that just because My Hero Academia was doing better than Haikyuu!! by volume 8, it doesn't mean that the anime boost will be bigger, though it probably increases the odds. Assassination Classroom was in 7 Million copies overall in volume 7, while Haikyuu!! was at 2.5 Million. Still Haikyuu!! got a so much bigger anime boost, and now is close to it in copies printed.

So no one is talking about how amazing BnHA first episode? Based BONES delivers again, I've been listening to the OP on a loop for the past 24 hours
I'll take 13 episode of this over 60 or 70 episodes done by pierrot or toei any day

there's small jump in its old volumes sales from what i can see shoseki, Golden Kamui is getting a big increase tho, I guess that's the effect of word of mouth & Taisho awards

 

[vampire killer]

All the volumes of BHA are sold out. It`s the best manga for 2016.

Nice, I usually like Iwamoto's stuff. Think I even still have the NEXT issue with Section 459 lying around somewhere.
Also, he new NEXT issue's two posters are going to be the MHA anime and a Food Wars/Ghost Tits crossover.

 

[RafaFedKilla]

How in the world is Ghost Tits successful?

Have you read it yet ?

I've read up to 7 translated chapter ( in Vietnamese if anyone asks) plus chapter 8 and 9 in Japanese and I want to point out something ( based on observation and opinion) .

The manga is episodic just like To Love Ru. The rank will vary chapter by chapter . To Love Ru debut at rank #5 (source: http://pharaodopazoplus.blogspot.com/p/weekly-shonen-jump-pure-rankings-2006.html)
The first couple chapters of To Love Ru rank were : 5, color page, 7, 9 ,7 ,9 ,6, 6 ,7 , colour page, 11,9 , 12, 11...

The art is good, however the comedies are cliches. But since the main heroine is a ghost, it has some funny element ( he went on a date with her, but no one can see her...)

The casts are average.

The protagonist isn't like other harem protagonist, since he doesn't "like" anyone, and he isn't wimpy like Rito or Raku .

I think this series might be a high/okay sales low ranking series . This series might survive because diversity in the magazine .

It was actually a pretty unexciting and bad first episode. No excitement, bad op song (good ed song at least), however it did have Kaminari, a silly Todoroki moment that was meme'd for a bit, and lots of Kirishima upper body so it wasnt a total waste, but episode content wise, another bad bones production.I was hoping itd be as good as BLast of Tempest for Bones and at least Owari no Serafu adaptation visual quality.
