It is possible for it to surpass Hero, but only if it gets a great anime adaptation and if they handle the adaptation properly. Where they air the anime will also be crucial.

I think it could pass it before it ever gets an anime.

....its a bit too late for that in case you've been under a rock for two years.

I'm with Scruffy on this one. RxL has dropped off hard and while I was initially interested in the professional direction Fujimaki was taking the story, I lost interest pretty fast. I don't care about the Bigfoot guy at all.

About Kimetsu, does anyone know what the Japs reception was to the recent chapter?

A lot of shock a depression on twitter (and lot of speculation on 2ch), but it was generally well received.

Tanjirou getting up and moving still bothers me and it happens again in this chapter.

Spoiler

Look at the way hes breathing and the way he's pressing the wound with his hand after waking up, he clearly used the recovery breath he learned from Rengoku to close it and regain stamina, and just as he said in recent chapters he's able to fight using the breath of water since it doesn't take a toll on his body and he can't use breath of The Sun at the moment because of his injuries.

I don't get how there are complains about Tanjirou still fighting when it has been explained before that with mastering your breath you can boosts your stamina and
physical strength

Given how much space and visibility is giving you the Jump you are amazed at the increase in sales of Promised Neverland?

That sells more than Black Clover does not surprise me, it's been a month since the 14th and this month came out on the 7th, put us all the people who pushed by word of mouth recovers the manga ....

Let's see in two months if the anime will give another boost to Black Clover.

This is seriously getting repetitive.

Everyone here said and hoped a lot for a boost with Boku no Hero's second season (and the boost was real), why we can't do the same with Black Clover...?

Not sure why this is being said so much. Let's stop going off what we "feel" and what the numbers tell us lol. It's already been shown that even with that much TV advertisement TPN still isn't selling close to MHA. And even then MHA is still constantly growing and not stagnating. TPN is a really cool series but I'm not sure why some ppl try to deny or forget what a hit success MHA is and was

The numbers tell us Promised Neverland is selling at a faster pace than the pace HeroAca is selling, suggesting that if all things remain the same, Promised Neverland will outsell HeroAca at some point in time. Just plot the numbers for yourself and you'll see Promised Neverland has a greater slope than HeroAca.

Let me see these numbers

Currently TPN's latest volume (seventh) is doing better than what MHA's seventh volume did at its first week
My Hero Academia Vol.7: 149,444 (5 days)
The Promised Neverland Vol.7: 164,072 (4 days)

For me Black Clover this year is top 10 sure, While sales of old volumes continue the boost will come.

I hope. BLack Clover can still reach Naruto level. Its already surpassed Boruto Naruto Next Generations so there is still a chance out there.

That's 3 days worth of sales not 5. It missed the oricon cut off. There was also a special edition included with a drama cd that you forgot to include. Which is a combine total of 168k.

The difference is that there were people saying that MHA wouldn't get a second boost while nobody is denying that Black Clover didn't get a boost yet its still lagging behind in spite of it.

 

[Franz]

Black Clover didn't get a boost yet

LOL

 

[Halloween]

If BC is going to receive a big anime boost, it's going to happen in the current arc that's airing.

 

[TyVip]

So if bozebeat sell a million copies we can stop talking about MHA and it will be the new bench mark right, right??

I always find it funny how almost all successful new series in the last 2-3 years got compare to MHA. So 2 years from now all new series will be conpare to TPN in sales?
