Things I did not expect:

- Me getting approximate Iruma numbers for somewhere other than Japan.
- Iruma being the second best selling manga of its publisher. I mean, from the listings I saw, I knew it’d be relatively popular but damn.

Horimiya taking off is fantastic though. First 9 volumes are genuinely some of the best romance I’ve read in manga.

Iruma feels like a sleeper hit. Author is dropping nuggets in the story that it can pull a Dragon Ball and go full battle shounen and it could easily be off to the races after that.

It has an viewing audience in Japan of about 600k and it ranks well in the Crunchyroll top shows charts.

Sleeper hit sounds about the right word for it. It took three anime seasons for this thing to get an official English release and a nendoroid. Meanwhile some others are getting nendos before the anime even airs. This series has 10 million copies in circulation, a rare feat when it comes to manga, and even rarer when it comes to WSC manga.

Though I will say, Iruma already kind of had it's breakout moment sales-wise when the first season aired. It's done a real good job maintaining it's sales since with timely subsequent seasons. There is a stage play adaptation coming, and I have a feeling there might be a movie following this current season too, so we'll see if that does anything.

I'm curious as to where you got or extrapolated the 600k number from. And yeah, like you said, I think it does fairly well on Crunchyroll, too. More popular than one might think. (Notably I believe Jazz is the first dub role for Ryan Colt Levy, who is now voicing pretty major characters, so that's cool to see.)

I got it from a combination of it's TV ratings(it normally never ranks but did during a holiday week where some bigger shows took a week off) and an article that attached a number to the ratings points.


Always like new year reports where the big hitters take a break and let you see where lesser shows stand.

Iruma-kun is pulling a decent audience. I did some spitball math back 10 years ago to try and guess to a figure the points represented based on the number of households in Japan and average number of occupants. Came to 1.0 = 500,000.

Turns out I wasn't far off!


1.0 = 600,000.

But that is only 1 region tracked.
 
Attaching numbers to ratings is usually a pretty rough estimation (since only Kanto gets tracked for ratings iirc so full numbers can definitely vary depending on how your product performs outside of it, and there can definitely be some wild swings on that front), 600k on 1.0 sounds pretty low to me but I don't really remember enough about ratings to go against it since I don't actively pay much attention to the metric.
 
“Slam Dunk” has sold over 1 million copies in South Korea since 4 Jan when The First Slam Dunk movie released. Korean Publisher, Daiwon C.I said total copies likely to go over 1.4 million by April.

That's pretty insane honestly. It already had 14 million in circulation. The movie is doing insane numbers and way beyond my expectations. Considering the IP been dead for a while and the movie had somewhat negative image before release.

Even other hit recent manga don't come close to that level, maybe Kimetsu has did it in terms of recent sales but JJK has sold only 1 million in 18 volumes there as of June 2022. Slam dunk will probably do 2 million this year, pushing it to ~16-17 million.

I hope shueisha updates Slam Dunk (and many other manga that ended but continued selling) soon.

SD is going to be the biggest japanese film in SK, can cross 4M admits imho. Current record holder for that is 3.7M admits by your name if memory serves (4M admits isn't insane or anything in SK in a vacuum, not even after the massive hit the market took post-covid, but it is very good, and for a jp film it is obviously fantastic). Incredibly leggy, currently at 2.9m, held pretty well against ant-man, will probably retake #1 next week since AM got poor ratings by SK audiences and will collapse after a poor OW.

On another note, with the trailer announcing Kusuriya for fall, I think that's basically a lock for the top10 this year. Am curious in how things will work out with it having 2 separate series in terms of boost. Technically speaking it has a ton of volumes since both series get added up by oricon (which is rather silly imho but alas).

Has a non WSJ manga ever been the best selling in a year? Blue Lock looks like it might be the first
Not in the Oricon era and blue lock will most likely be the first. It will also be the lowest selling (per volume) series to ever win a year, probably even lowest among series that only ranked #2 or #3.

Damn I was kinda hoping that the Demon Slayer boom in the manga industry would hold for a while but I feel like it's already slipped. CSM didn't really blow up the way I wanted (my personal favorite manga) but I hope there are new hits soon in the industry
 
Is there any data for The Promised Neverland WW sales? Seems high from the circulation but the major markets don't show it.
 
Is there any data for The Promised Neverland WW sales? Seems high from the circulation but the major markets don't show it.
In the US, Kaiu Shirai (TPN writer) was the 7th best-selling mangaka of 2019, with 124,093 units sold, 5th of 2020 with 243,894 units and 8th of 2021 with 603,276 units.

In France, at the time it had the biggest first print yet for a first volume (100k units). Its first year (2018) was very comparable to Jujutsu Kaisen's (2020) despite that one having an anime, and being in a post-covid market. It was the 5th best-selling manga series in 2019, 4th in 2020, 8th in 2021 and 16th in 2022. It has (most likely) sold over 4 million units as of 2022.

In Germany, it was 6th in 2019, 10th in 2020, 8th in 2021 and 15th in 2022. It's probably in the 500k-1M range total.
 
Manga is growing here in the UK but I know it's not huge. How much smaller is it compared to France/Germany/Spain/Italy?

I can only compare with France since we kinda lack precise numbers for these other EU market.

Nielsen BookScan tracked the following number of manga sales for the 2005-2010 period in the UK
2005: 157,920 units
2006: 351,301 units
2007: 547,946 units
2008: 685,099 units
2009: 606,756 units
2010: 398,158 units

This has to be smaller than Spain, Germany or Italy.
For France, between 13 and 15 million manga volumes were sold yearly during that period, per Gfk data. So something like 20 times bigger than the UK market
 
That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime reached 40 million copies in circulation (35m in Japan, 5m overseas)
Finally, an update.
Now Tensura is best selling series based on a light novel. By next year it will cross 50 million mark and will become the first series based on light novel to cross 50 million mark.
Manga sales of tensura are just phenomenal for it's kind.

There have been some discussions I've seen about circulation.

Apparently, publishers include these two things, which can artificially pad out the numbers.

First, it includes every spin-off and novel unless stated otherwise. Second, it includes free Kindle and free distribution copies overall as part of circulation. One example is "Left-Handed Ellen."

January 20, 2021 Cumulative total of 1,000,000 copies in the series
April 1, 2022: Total of 1.4 million copies sold in the series
April 9, 2022 Free distribution of the original version begins
April 12, 2022 Cumulative total of 1.8 million copies in series
April 22, 2022 Cumulative total of 2 million copies sold
May 17, 2022 Cumulative total of 2.4 million copies in the series

I'm so happy to see Sasaki and Miyano do so well! Is Akata the French publisher of the series? I couldn't find much info.

The movie, which follows on from the first season of the anime, just released in Japan but us fans in the West will probably have to wait months to see it. 🥲

Yeah, they are. They are the French pub that focuses the most on Shojo/Josei manga and they also tend to prefer series with LGBTQ+ characters.
And yes, the movie has little chances of being released in theaters in the west, so it will take a while to be released there in any form.

Thanks for the answer!

Do you think the movie will have a positive effect on sales of the manga in Japan?

It's not having any effect on the daily top 500 so far, so no, it won't. Any boost would have appeared last week-end already.

I don't think the movie is a very wide release, @Turkey knows more about that than I though.
 
Looks like limited ~100 theaters release with pretty poor sales on those as well to me (2k sold out of 10k total seats at 7PM on mimorin which is ~45-50% of market, though likely higher share for this kind of film that most rural locations probably aren't interested in playing, and this is a semi-holiday since a good amount of people took the day off after thursday holiday), wouldn't expect anything at all for manga since I doubt anyone besides existing fanbase is showing up here

Aw man that's disappointing but thanks a lot for the info.

I dunno why they chose to release a movie and not just a regular second season. Of course no one would go to see it unless they had seen season 1.
The show was already green lit for a second season so I dunno if this replaces that and they'll cut it up and release it as season 2?

Japan Manga Market 2022 Update

Physical has dropped a lot, most likely due to Kimetsu readers dispersing. Despite the huge drop in Physical Volumes, the Digital Market made up for it entirely. Physical Magazine market is pretty much dead. I see it completely being phased out in the future. I wonder what 2023 will look like, but I see there being an overall decrease. Also wish they would separate Digital Comic as its own category.

*The market estimate for digital is an "estimate of the amount paid by readers," including unlimited reading, & does not include advertising revenue or digital libraries.
Digital revenue is great especially considering it does not include advertising and the fact that piracy was rampant. I had no idea.
 
There have been some discussions I've seen about circulation.

Apparently, publishers include these two things, which can artificially pad out the numbers.

First, it includes every spin-off and novel unless stated otherwise. Second, it includes free Kindle and free distribution copies overall as part of circulation. One example is "Left-Handed Ellen."

January 20, 2021 Cumulative total of 1,000,000 copies in the series
April 1, 2022: Total of 1.4 million copies sold in the series
April 9, 2022 Free distribution of the original version begins
April 12, 2022 Cumulative total of 1.8 million copies in series
April 22, 2022 Cumulative total of 2 million copies sold
May 17, 2022 Cumulative total of 2.4 million copies in the series
Another one is "Anata ga Shite Kurenakutemo" which announced over 7 million copies in 7 volumes. The announcement clarifies electronic sales as not being the same as paper.

DeepL translation
"Oh, the total for electronic + paper is 7 million copies!
By the way, although it is often misunderstood, we do not use the conversion of "one electronic copy = one copy", but rather "the sales amount of one paper comic book = one copy"!"

which I assume means they count either views or individual chapter sales as one copy. If Shonen Jump had done this, Kochikame would have sold 6 billion copies (compared to 3 billion for One Piece, 2.9 billion for Dragon Ball, 2.2 billion for Naruto, and so on). I don't think it actually got 7 million buyers; I know that digital is big, but the discrepancy is way too massive here.

So I'm personally going to take most circulations with a grain of salt; I don't think the big publishers have started doing this kind of data manipulation yet. But even so, there are many ways to pad the numbers that big publishers can do and often do as well. Oricon isn't perfect, but it's the least biased and most accurate source we have.

Yeah some pubs have tried doing this sort of foul play to inflate the numbers. It looks especially weird when it's some obscure series that's nearly nonexistent physically so you think it must be huge in digital but then you check the big digital stores (which don't have numbers per se but have ranks and whatnot) and it's not impressing anyone even there. Just another reason to want oricon to pick up digital tracking before this becomes common practice so it can atleast be called out easily.

Oricon should have picked up digital years ago. Now it's taking over the market and we have no real grasp on what the numbers actually are. The whole "counting views/individual chapter sales in circulation figures" is very reminiscent of the music industry when streaming started taking over. We definitely need Oricon to craft the guidelines as to what you can count as a single sale, and to make their own charts. They already do this for streaming (300 streams = 1 sale). Manga "streaming" is the future and will take over, so I think it's only fair for things like digital views/chapter sales to count for something. Jigokuraku passed 200m views on Jump+ last I remember, but only has 4m in circulation. Yet 200 million views equate to... 0 in circulation? But yeah they definitely have to pick up digital. At least a chart for pure digital sales lol.
