Kimetsu no Yaiba's 2020 sales: 38,191,494
>Kimetsu no Yaiba has officially surpassed One Piece to become the best-selling manga in Oricon within a fiscal year.
Based Kimetsu
Kimetsu is basically what you call a shonen protagonist. Came from the bottom and went to the top.
How are One Pissers taking it?
What's going on? Why the fuck is it getting so much sales? Can the mangaka even end the show if it's doing this well? Is there any benefit to continuing the anime if the manga ends soon?
and so I pray
Unlimited Sales Works

>he thinks there needs to be gay for fujos to flock to it
You poor newfag
>doesn't know what "fujo" is
>is the one who doesn't understand how fujos and shipping works
>no one bought the first volume
That's inspirational
The most popular ship is the two straightest characters so yeah
They're in mad denial right now. I don't read either manga but this fight is fun to watch.
KnY will probably sell 50million before the fiscal year ends. Fucking insane.
The fact that it managed to get to 100k with a slow growth (before the anime obviously) was also a good sign for KnY.
lmao what happened to all the wanpissers that argued that Kimetsu hadn't surpassed them in sales last year? Guess they'll have to pull out 34 million volumes out of their ass now.

OPfags btfo again
The reason why One Piece's sales are dwindling and Kimetsu's are rising is simple. Because One Piece has gone on for far too long with no ending in sight and people are getting discouraged from reading further and losing interest. Meanwhile, Kimetsu not only had an incredible anime adaptation with a movie looming on the horizon that adapts a canon part of the story, but Kimetsu is nearing its conclusion in the manga, with hype and anticipation at an all time high so people went and bought all the volumes to marathon read it and catch up quickly with the story rather than risk getting spoiled by waiting.
We are now seeing a paradigm shift in how Shueisha and Jump push new series. No longer are the days where they milk series endlessly or for more than a decade. Instead, we will now have more focus on series that last in Jump for around 2-5 years and are packed properly and cycled out accordingly for new content. This will end up resulting in a larger variety and stronger quality of content in Jump.
Pissbros h-how can we stop her she's too powerfull !
High-quality post. I agree with all your points.
Why does KnY sell so well? It's no different from any other shounen.
>Can the mangaka even end the show if it's doing this well?
Yeah, but Shueisha is probably begging for a continuation. Whether the mangaka wants to continue with it or not is their choice but it's not really a choice that will be made easy by Shueisha most likely lol. Although Nakano did say that AC taught him to let series end when they want, but this is probably a special case where it's just selling too much to not atleast press the author.
>Is there any benefit to continuing the anime if the manga ends soon?
The anime is profitable. The BD sales are very high, surprisingly so for a WSJ adaptation. The movie is going to be an event, nips speculate atleast 5billion yen box office for it (although corona might get in the way of that and force a delay).
Basically everything with the name on it is doing insane. WSJ's small gachashit game trended #1 on twitter just due to announcing a KnY character and when the event started today the servers were crashing left and right.

Oh dear, how embarrassing...
Well, look at the bright side though MHAfags. At least you're not Cloverfags.
>#10 My Hero Academia - 81,419
Fucking LOST
There will be a second season because the sales justify it but it will obviously take some time with the kung flu and movie releasing this year.
Has Demon Slayer already surpassed One Piece's sales during Marineford (30 million something?)
Ironically enough, ending the manga here and having the anime continue to fully adapt it might be MORE beneficial to volume sales in the long run. Because people will know they're getting a complete story, they'll be more likely to get interested in the anime, which will in turn bring in new audiences, which will keep the volume sales up even after the manga has concluded.
Am I the only one who thinks KNY is ass?
Yes fag, read the OP.
The breathing techniques are good, the art has imrpoved tremendously, and the story isn't too convoluted. That's my take on it.
Yeah, i can't see anyone can stomach another story that need a decade to finish. Sadly MHA seem to be chasing a dying trend.
yes.And we're not even 4 months in.
I think it's too early to tell whether KnY will be an outlier or not, but I hope your predictions are true. Jump is sure to try and copy its success in some way or another.
why do mods let these threads stay up? its just kny, bc, op and mha fans throwing shit at each other. you retards are the worst part of Yas Forums
How will Wanpissers cope?
That's true but volume sales are only a part of the picture - jump needs stuff that carry the magazine first and foremost.
Sales threads are a joy that's why, wanpisser.
