My Hero Academia beats One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen in one category Kohei Horikoshi\/BonesThe sales record of August 2024 proves that My Hero Academia has had the upper hand on other Shonen giants like One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen this past month. Oricon has recently released Japan\u2019s manga sales records from August 5 to September 1, and the results are pretty surprising. Kohei Horikoshi\u2019s My Hero Academia has left behind every other manga out there and sold a whopping 678,672 physical copies. That\u2019s a 68% growth from previous month\u2019s sales. Following it is Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yuusuke Nomura\u2019s popular sports manga Blue Lock, which has had a shocking growth in numbers since July 2024. With a 110% increase, the manga has sold 346,039 physical copies, though it\u2019s significantly lower than its predecessor. Gege Akutami\u2019s sensational Jujutsu Kaisen tags behind, with 246,550 copies sold and a 78% decrease in sales. It\u2019s pretty shocking for the manga since it\u2019s been on an all-time high for some time now. One Piece\u2019s position on this list is even more shocking. Despite providing one of the best arcs in its nearly three-decade-long journey, Eiichiro Oda\u2019s masterpiece faced a significant decline in sales number, with only 186,113 physical copies purchased by fans. But while fan favorites like One Piece and Jujutsu Kaisen experienced steep declines, few others saw incredible success in August 2024. Chainsaw Man got a re-entry in the top 10 with 190,822 copies sold. Katainaka no Ossan, Jojo\u2019s Bizarre Adventure, and Sakamoto Days faced a similar situation. Incidentally, My Hero Academia is also leading the sales charts when it comes to manga volumes. The series\u2019 Volume 41 sold a startling 339,959 physical copies, way more than Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 27\u2019s 105,227 and One Piece Volume 109\u2019s 89,991 sales. A reason behind My Hero Academia\u2019s massive sales success probably is the manga\u2019s ending in August. Jujutsu Kaisen is going down a similar road, with the series concluding on September 30, 2024. So, the series may be facing a steady rise in sales in the future. As for One Piece, readers have a lot to look forward to in the following months as the manga is finally entering the much-anticipated Elbaf Arc.
