Was there a reprint of MHA volumes lately?
In the last several days, all of the volumes of MHA are ranking way higher in the top 500 than they usually do.

12/20 - One volume is missing from the top 500
12/21 - Lowest position is 466
12/22 - Lowest is 376
12/23 - Lowest is 288

When volume 21 released 1-20 got a reprint, one week later volume 21 got a reprint which was high priority (not sure if top) and now you have the holiday seasons so it is expected to see more sales.
I never asked around here, but where do people get these rankings?

WT falling fast.

 

[CuriousReborn]

Is there any difference between Shoseki and Oricon?

 

[Tamil]

WT falling fast.

No its growing. I think those are record sales for WT. It's at 300k+ already.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Loving that Black Clover cover. Noelle deserves to be the main character of all covers.

WT falling fast.

I liked the concept, but the colors are just ugly to me. Not pleasing at all.

 

[supercow297]

Nah Black Clover vol. 19 has cover aesthetic. Looks super nice, esp. the colors.
New Gintama volume is looking hella solemn. First time a character's looked away from the "reader" methinks.

 

[crazymaya]

With Megaton Musashi still living, we already know at least two manga that will start their run in 2019.

 

[SharkBait]

Is there any difference between Shoseki and Oricon?

I dont think Shoseki ever clarified how it gets its ranks or what stores it counts and doesnt unlike oricon. Also shoseki doesnt show actual sales numbers, just its stratifications, unlike oricon.

I was sure we all said it was showing growth volume over volume last week, but doubt was expressed over how much further it would increase and how many more weeks it could keep charting, which this week suggests it's this volumes final appearance. Perhaps final volume total will meet or exceed 450k in the half year ranks, which would be a more than 20% growth over the previous volumes final yr end total.

The colors are cool bro, this concept I like too cause I've seen it before in anime key visuals and covers, characters falling backwards with an ulterior meaning in the backdrop. The problem is the face structures, way too pointy, faces don't look like that at all. Noelle is the only one that looks good on here.

Asta's appearance leading the vanguard of the contemporary jump characters appearing in jump force strongly suggests and highly implies that BLack Clovers sales remain extremely strong in measures such as digital volume sales that are not represented and not presently captured using legacy tracking methods. Using the rule of thumb previously established for digital manga sales of BLack clover, an additional 60% needs to be added to your total.

Thanks.

 

[TyVip]

Psi, medaka box and beelzebulb must also had strong sales for them to be in jump victory vs.

 

[Jovan]

Really worried for Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san now seeing the sales. The fact it was almost beaten by a special volume of Jujutsu Kaisen...eh. Still even if it gets axed in spring, it will still have around 16 volumes overall, which is a great run for a Shonen Jump manga. Shame it peaked so early.

But it is the style of drawing the characters ...

This is funny.
You're the gift that just keeps giving. Merry Christmas, Shark. Or Happy Holidays, whichever you prefer.

Happy Holidays, everyone.

The Level-5 game? The manga will be serialized on WSJ? Didn't know about this coming to the magazine.
