You forgot Psyren...

I assume since it's never gotten total circulation numbers released.

But it has at least 1 million from the numbers we have.

Assuming KnY ever did beat out Naruto, it wouldn’t need worldwide sales to do it.

It beating Naruto in Japan with less than a third of the content is already insane in and of itself and that can happen in a month or two. Beating it completely is downright impossible as Naruto is a juggernaut no matter which country you go to, it's always a top lister and it has been for years, unless the entire maket gets quadrupled and everyone buys KnY

Kimetsu will most likely become the 2nd best selling series of all time in Japan from Jump. It'll probably beat Dragonball either this year or next year.

 

[Minsel]

I mean think about it we still have KNY season 2, KNY season 3, KNY whatever for the final arc?
Naruto might be getting beaten in the end is all im saying

Did I miss the press release saying KNY will be receiving multiple seasons to complete the story in full?

There’s zero reason for them not to, considering how popular the IP is in Japan.

After promised neverland and haikyuus nonexistent next season Im unsure if completed stories will continue to get full nontruncated adaptations

Do you recon it could get get super close to one piece after season 2?

Also, since everyone keeps asking for it, here's DELETE by Kentaro Fukuda.

Are those really the numbers for world trigger and Boruto?

Look at the dates, World Trigger's is from 2016 and Bort's is from 2018. They're very outdated figures by now.

World Trigger for example sells more than 400k per volume these days, and 23*400 000 would put it at at least 9 million. Add in digital sales and old backlog and it'll definitely be over 10 million at this point, possibly closer to 20 mil. But until we get new official total circulation numbers, the low 2016 number is all that can be kept track of.

None of them reached the level of popularity that KnY did. At this point there no way in hell they not gonna try to milk KnY.

I will wait for HQ!! at least until next month or the end of the year for an announcement, but Kimetsu is going to have a second season of probably 12-13 episodes by the end of the year and that will complete half the story. After that they will only have 2 arcs to tell in a 13 episode series and another 26 episode series. Neverland is really a sad case though.

Yes, Psyren has never gotten any officially announced figures. Neither Hinomaru Zumo, Samon-kun wa Summoner, Sesuji wo Pin!, and a large etcetera. That also includes other newer series. There's no point in adding estimations that are not officially confirmed when it all becomes relative and hypothetical, so that's why lots of series are missing.

As for if X number is real or not, every single one of them has a date attached to it, along with a source link for the number to see when was it announced in any article or website. That's the point of the sheet.

 

[Serinox]

THAT's the final volume cover for WNL??? Not a cover that shows all the girls?...

All the girls and side characters are shown in the combined covers of the special editions of Volume 20 and Volume 21

 

[SharkBait]

Wow just now realizing We Never Learn sold only a third of Nisekoi. I think I liked both equally but enjoyed We Never Learn anime a bit more.

Definitely enjoyed Nisekoi more. WNL was more chill and a fun ride though. Prefer Nisekoi cause it was more dramatic

Spine Update.

Spine Update.

surprised its already doubling up on series, I guess some wont get representation. I guess third One Piece will be Sanji and Todoroki for next HeroAca, Yami for next BLack Clover. Hm don't know who next Mashle would be...Lance? Megumi for next Jujutsu, unless Gojo is beloved? (i only see megumi x itadori content alot), and Chrome for Dr. Stone.

Characters I like are already used and not saying English or 中文 . Dissapointing.

Yes. Comparing Kimetsu's anime, where it's movie became the highest grossing japanese movie of all time WW, to other franchises is totally logical.
