[SpookyShadow]

First place well deserved, though Haikyuu deserves even more sales

 

[Deleted member 2530]

BnHA dropped down

 

[Ionliosite]

The fact One Piece isn't #1 makes me really sad. While I have trouble with the list because of the names used here forced to google most of them to even know what they are, the list looks ok-ish and consistent with the previous years.

 

[Purgy]

Pretty sad to see how much Manga has died in general.

 

[Ionliosite]

Hey, at least their sales are on the millions, American comic books can only dream to sell that well.

 

[Purgy]

True, but Manga is definitely going down in popularity unfortunately.

 

[GLHF22]

Hahaha slime on the top 10 again, the first and only isekai manga ever got top 10 each year.

 

[YungManzi]

Despite how popular Kingdom is, we don't seem to have many supporters of the verse.

Maybe it's because it's not anywhere near as popular outside of Japan?

But One Piece is similarly not as popular in the west as Japan.

 

[Ionliosite]

Despite how popular Kingdom is, we don't seem to have many supporters of the verse.

We have that verse on the wiki?

 

[YungManzi]

I don't think there's even a verse page.

But we do have a profile for Shin (Kingdom)

 

[NeoSuperior]

Hahaha slime on the top 10 again, the first and only isekai manga ever got top 10 each year.

You got that wrong. Not the "only isekai manga ever to reach top 10 of a year", but rather the "only manga adaptation of a Light Novel ever to reach top 10 of a year". That's a much greater achievement.

 

[Sheska444]

Not Bad

 

[ChocomilkAlex]

I wish One Piece was still at the top. Demon Slayer is disgustingly overrated in my opinion.

 

[Ionliosite]

Kimetsu no Yaiba is pretty good, but not the Death Note level masterpiece some people make it out to be.

 

[ChocomilkAlex]

No bias here, One Piece is the most well written Shonen of all time. Death Note is in a close second.

 

[Newendigo]

Kaguya-Sama managed to get in top 9, awesome.

I should start reading TQQ, heard that is really good.

 

[Ionliosite]

I personally think Death Note is by far the best written manga ever published by the Shounen Jump, but I can see why you like One Piece better.

 

[RotofBots]

No bias here, One Piece is the most well written Shonen of all time. Death Note is in a close second.

Hunter x Hunter is better written imo. Along with shonen like Ashita no Joe and Yu Yu Hakusho but thats just me

 

[Newendigo]

Naruto.

 

[Milly_Rocking_Bandit]

Nice to see Slime holding to torch of isekai amongst these other shounen.

 

[Ionliosite]

amongst these other shounen.

Actually, Kaguya-sama and TenSura are the only non-shounen rated manga on this list, and they are 9 and 10 respectively LOL.

 

[Milly_Rocking_Bandit]

Oh, what genre is it?

 

[Ionliosite]

Oh, what genre is it?

What do you mean by what genre? Both Kaguya-sama and TenSure are rated seinen, unlike everything else, which are rated shounen. Genre has nothing to do here, given the Top 8, despite all being rated shounen, are of many different genres.

 

[Newendigo]

Ion@ Haykuu, Quintuplets and Promised neverland are shonens?

 

[Ionliosite]

Haykuu, Quintuplets and Promised neverland are shonens?

Yes, and Neverland is even published on the Shounen Jump.

 

[NeoSuperior]

shounen is a demographic, not a genre.

 

[NeoSuperior]

What do you mean by what genre? Both Kaguya-sama and TenSure are rated seinen, unlike everything else, which are rated shounen. Genre has nothing to do here, given the Top 8, despite all being rated shounen, are of many different genres.

Technically TenSura is shounen since it's released in Monthly Shounen Sirius, but since it's just an adaptation and seems appeal to, and I quote, "geezers", I don't think the official demographic has much meaning.

Kingdom on the other hand is an actual seinen that's released in a seinen magazine. Kaguya is also seinen, as you already mentioned.

 

[Milly_Rocking_Bandit]

Huh, something new learned every day.

 

[Ionliosite]

Technically TenSura is shounen since it's released in Monthly Shounen Sirius

Kingdom on the other hand is an actual seinen that's released in a seinen magazine.

Oh, I totally mixed up those then, I remembered reading Kingdom was the one on the Shounen Sirius XD. My bad then.

 

[Newendigo]

The numbers take into account the sells from other contries?

I seriously doubt it, but I could be wrong.
