Top 10 first printings for 2017 have been posted . According to this source, OP stays at 3.6 million, HxH drops 100k down to 1.5 million. Haikyuu drops a pretty big 80k, from 740k to 660k while Heroaca grows 90k up from 560k to 650k. You can see the trends in first printings as well.

Huh, so by next year MHA should surpass Haikyuu, at least in print numbers. I wonder at what number it'll stabilize. I'm expecting another boost from the third season and maybe the movie as well, but I'm not expecting it to be big.

 

[DyanSon]

Season 3 and Movie please make HeroAca a million sell or at least 800k seller.

So, uh, myanimelist opened their own manga store in partnership with VIZ and Kodansha Comics. I didn't know that they're owned by DeNa. lol

Today we should be getting some minor info about Ziga plot in next Jump issue preview.

 

[Halloween]

But what about the studio handling it?

 

[MangAniMY]

another week until the studio revelation...

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

At least we are finally getting the key visual, which means anime will be airing for sure in Summer

The Enigma vibes just got stronger.

Some people believe Rokurou Sano is actually Yoko using a new pen name

this is because the resemblance of Ziga's designs to the Kaijuu miniseries Yoko wrote a while back

it's worth mentioning that Yoko shilled Ziga on his twitter a couple of days ago


hmmmm....

 

[Heiji]

Hidano its old assistant of Yoko.

Needs to past haikyuu peak print run which I guess is unknown.

I know, this just makes the odds of them working together even greater imo

If true, and this is a success, this man is a legend

 

[Scruffy8642]

That would be interesting because Yoko just/is about to start a follow up/prequel to one of his older series in Young Magazine as the artist. Dude seems to have an incredible work ethic with how hes done 3 serialisations almost in succession, so it wouldn’t surprise me if he was doing the story here.

 

[Mankichi Togawa]

Question from an ignorant: who is Yoko and what titles has he created?
