Manga Sweeps NYT Bestseller List, Jujutsu Kaisen at #1
Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 30 absolutely obliterated the competition, seizing the #1 spot on The New York Times' June Graphic Books and Manga bestseller list. But Gege Akutami's blockbuster wasn't alone. Manga unleashed a full-scale takeover: new releases claimed every single position in the top ten. Black Butler Volume 34 and My Hero Academia Volume 39 landed at #2 and #3. Fan favorites like Chainsaw Man and SPY x FAMILY also dominated. Even critical darlings such as Witch Hat Atelier and the heartwarming Frieren: Beyond Journey's End made significant waves. This stunning sweep highlights manga's unwavering grip on American readers and the massive appetite for fresh volumes.
