WOW!! Seven Deadly Sins! The anime boost is enormous!! I guess that BOOST is one of the main reason that makes second season a reality.


Also, it's worth to note that as a monthly series, Attack on Titan manga is becoming vulnerable against popular weekly series.

Bleach and Nisekoi barely had changes.

One Piece actually sold more this year than the last.


Food Wars is a questionable increase (+2mln from last year), I dont think the anime had much effect on it.

Haikyuu!! is please since it is still selling super high >800K each volume now.

Magi crashed hard.

One Piece sold more because it had 4 instead of 3 volumes out this year and Food Wars had a very good anime boost.

I think it is the first time that all the non finished mangas on this list have or will have an anime adaption. No doubt the light novel top 30 will be the same (maybe one title will still not have an anime adaption). 2016 and beyond will see some real soul searching by anime production committees.

I dont think Food Wars had good anime boost, selling 2 mln more than last year when the series was still growing in popularity and has more volumes now isnt as impressive as it sounds.

On the per volume chart, no food wars volume was in the top 50, no old volumes before this year are up there either (only v13 - 15)...

It is imoressive because you only look at super polar boosts but 2 million is a boost that 95 percent of the manga will never get..

A shame for Kekkai Sensen (did they move to another magazine?) and Gintama, but I'm glad Seraph of the End made it.

I would have thought Academia would have had a higher amount sold for some reason. Oh well, least it's doing fine in the magazine maybe this time next year it'll get the boost I'm hoping it gets.

Sad that noragami is not on the list although the anime only started 2 months ago, nice to see Kingdom doing really well, sad about magi dropping every year and haikyuu doing well is awesome

AoT is suffering from the lull where the anime is not in session, so not a lot of people are going to pay as much attention to it. One Piece though is business as usual.

Doesn't Kingdom have/had an anime recently/is really good? It's been selling well since basically its beginning, hasn't it? I admit to haven't seeing it yet.
