So there's no Black Clover announcement? They gave it consecutive covers with no strings attached? I figure they'd at least do a popularity poll or something.

 

[Ihore]

Amalgam is high this week surprising.

Past X Present. Nice!

 

[Nakura]

Not exactly connected covers, but they are nice nonetheless. Minus points for no Luck on the cover though.

Which reminds me of that 2nd WT popularity poll which still hasn't come out yet. Starting to think, it will never come out this year...

My Hero Academia is doing the same as Haikyuu!! and Bakuman 1st volume after the Anime started, and Bleach a little less than 1 year before its anime.

I really wish they would have waited to make an anime for MHA. It's potential sales might have been way higher that way. I see it peaking at around 600K per volume. Possibly 700K, who knows.

 

[vampire killer]

The new volume of BHA should sell 700k at least.

 

[dark123]

I am not buying it.
The problem is that there is not official announcement in TOC that next week is last chapter of Toriko.
it can be also the beginning of new arc or whatever else. We have to wait at least 1 week more.

What are you talking about? The ToC calls it the climax, that's WSJ speak for "it's ending".
That's the closest to an "official announcement" we usually get for Jump series.

It only has at max a 500k 1st print. Oricon also only shows the volumes reaching around 450k sales.

Is hard to believe that right now the series would get a 200k copies boost.

Chapter has been released by kewl so http://bato.to/reader#eba2c6f635c9daab read it. There is nothing about ending. Even WHITE says that it is not the end. So we still can not be sure.

 

[Ihore]

At MHA pace its will probably reach 10M by volume 16 or 17.

 

[savethecat]

Here come the Jump conspiracy theories on why Toriko is ending on social media

 

[Nakura]

I'm not even going to bother with that. I'm still tired from the constant 'fuck jump' and 'screw Shueisha' from when Bleach ended.

Nope men. Volume 1 sold 621k for 560 days, volume 10 sold 456k for 24 days. You can see that the newest volume will sell even better.
And World trigger look very bad only 3.5mil after the anime. I dont won't it to end but 2017 don't look very good for it.

 

[Varus]

Nice to see Neverland ranking consistently, volume 1 is coming out December right?
I have a lot of faith in this series but I do not want to be too optimistic so I'll say I am expecting it to hit 65k first week.

You're confusing Backlog sales with current sales. If what you say worked like that, given the fact that One Piece Volume 1 is around the 6-8 Million copies sold, than Volume 83 should sell even better.
Though that isn't how things work.

World Trigger always sold, and still does, less than My Hero Academia. And before the anime it was doing even less(around 100-150k). Right now, it sells around 300k copies per volume and 3.5 Million copies in 11 volumes is an average of 318k per volume. So to me it seems pretty good.
