23m+ - series overall latest reported printed copies
(probably higher already)

One Piece and Shingeki weekly sales ratios have been so similar that for now, I think that Shingeki's announced 1.85 million first print run for volume 11 is just regular edition.

If we include the 275066 special edition copies for Shingeki volume 11, the Shingeki sold ratio would jump to 1533229 82.28%. That's why for now, I think the 1.85m is just regular edition.

One Piece 71 doesn't seem to have a special edition and 4 million is assumed to be its first print run.

Yes, Chihayafuru! I picked up the manga recently and been enjoying it so I'm happy to see that one the list. That same goes for L-Dk.

Indeed, very happy! And happy that farther down the list, the LE version with OAD DVD sold 22130 copies! Season 3 please!!!!

Glad to see BTOOOM! 12 sold over 80K copies as well. Glad the manga bump is continuing almost 10 months after the anime ended. Still needs years of material to go and the anime sold like garbage so I am probably dreaming but I'd watch season 2 of BTOOOM! too.

BTOOOM!! Manga already ended! So they don't need years of material or anything!

Are you sure about that? Unless BTOOOM! ended in this month's issue of Bunch I think it is still ongoing. Article? Source?

Would be shocking if it ended now as it just started a new arc so unless the publisher is pulling the plug on something that's selling 80K per issue which I doubt... I think you must have it mixed up with something else (which is easy to understand as a zillion titles have ended this year).

Yep I'm wrong I read an article saying that the author was beginning writing a new manga in Shueisha and that he had run Btooom! in Shinchosha, so I interpreted as if it had ended. In reality it had run and still runs in it. So basically it means he now is making two manga at the same time.(Note: the other manga is called "La Vie en Doll")
