Best Selling Manga One Piece #108, Sales Notably Down From Last Year?

The Biggest Selling manga of 2024, One Piece #108, has sold over one-and-a-half million copies in Japan but down from last year.

Oricon is the head of a Japanese corporate group established in 1967 that supplies statistics and information on music and the music industry in Japan. It stands for Original Confidence. The group also records manga sales in Japan and provides rankings across entertainment. So far, it has released estimated sales figures for collected manga volumes in 2024.

One Piece #108 was the highest-selling collected manga in 2024, selling over one and a half million copies in 2024. This marks the 14th time in total that One Piece has taken the top spot, breaking the all-time record for "the most number of times the same series has taken the top spot in the annual comic rankings." While that is massive, it is still significantly down on last year's chart-topping volume, #105, which sold just shy of two million copies. You can see the downward trend for the biggest-selling manga, down to Vol #110, which only has one and an eighth million copies. Jujutsu Kaisen is the main challenger, with the two series taking seven of the top ten between them, Spy x Family taking two and a tenth place for Hunter x Hunter. All four were published by Shueisha's Jump Comics. The chart covers the period from the 4th of December, 2023, to the 25th of November 2024.
