Question, did Act-Age Vol 1 get reprints or no?

 

[MangAniMY]

Question, did Act-Age Vol 1 get reprints or no?

mid june 2018

 

[Rain Spectre]

mid june 2018

....Huh, that's over a month after Vol 1 came out.

Guess that really does seem to imply that Yozakura/Undead/Agravity really are being printed low, for whatever reason.

Odd.

Aaaaaaand it did it.

Kimetsu has beaten One Piece's record.

It's not there yet, it's missing like 800k

Also jesus, not even the epidemic stops kimetsu...

 

[kakilangit]

I found a website listing DVD/BD sales for anime that have over 10,000 copies sold across all volumes from 2000 to March 2020.

Sales figures

The highest from WSJ seems to be S1 of Haikyuu with 25470 copies. Others like Gintama, Kuroku basketball, Jojo bizarre adventure, Death Note, Kimetsu, To love ru darkness are scattered through out. What is surprising to me is the lack of long runners like naruto, bleach, one piece etc. I guess having 300+ episodes reduces the incentive to buy dvds or they weren't just added to the list because they are so long.

Edit: There was a correction I just found out. Can someone explain it?

Removed the three Bleach seasons; just tracking three seasons as normal shows and the rest as long-running was a weird distinction to make purely on the basis of the first three hitting 10k.

and bleach fan always bring this up.. muh BD DVD sales... its laughable..


and happy for dr. stone for holding in top 5...
and there is webcomic comic, croc, in top 10 is weird,,

 

[Thehoennhippo]

Comment on Kimetsu sales feels to old at this point lol, happy to see Stone though, glad it's been doing so well lately.

Off-topic, but, cool, the croc manga sold pretty well. Happy for it, it was an interesting experience.

Kimetsu didn't seem to be affected, but maybe it would have sold even more without the pandemic. Curious to see the specific numbers.

 

[pamuchi]

Next week it will pretty much sell what it needs.

Now, I wonder if vol 1 is about to cross the 3M line.

 

[MangAniMY]

Statistically speaking read: Statistically

more people went out to buy OP or AoT that week than Kimetsu





side note:

depending on distribution, all but 17 should be above 95 known , with at least 1 (being 1) to be above 95 actual after we got number end of this week

unless this week is is too lopsided, should still take a few more weeks

 

[kevinpr9]

I think it will surpass the record in the next 1-2 wks.

EDIT: Sorry for my misunderstanding. It's about how many wks the Vol.1 can reach 3m copies, not the whole 2020 KnY sales.

 

[Neala897]

Aaaaaaand it did it.

Kimetsu has beaten One Piece's record.

The bigger they are the harder they fall

 

[kevinpr9]

think he's talking about vol 1 reaching 3 million tho

Whoops! I'm misunderstood.

I just edited my comment above.

Wew, I expect kny will definitely take over one piece 2011 by the time vol 20 is out.

 

[MangAniMY]

almost time to change gear and look at a hopefully more interesting battle

side note: possibly interesting battle with a subjectively very boring outcome

These numbers strike me as...rather low. Is there a Top 20? I’m interested in seeing the full Top 50 for the week for each volume.

I get Japan’s in a state of emergency now, so it’s to be expected, but... still, I honestly thought some volumes would’ve sold more.

 

[MangAniMY]

it exist, publicly, but not yet, and no numbers.


top 50 volume is later in the week as usual

 

[Blink22]

Bears repeating what a legendary boost this is. Kimetsu will have ended before volume sales peak and can show a decline ffs.
