Kodoani.com – Last Friday marked the premiere of the anime Sousou after freezing with a two-hour special consisting of the first four episodes airing consecutively. The anime series made an impact on the audience, making them buy the manga.
When looking at the “Best Sellers” rankings of Shonen manga (yes, Sousou no Frieren is a Shonen), you will see a number of Frieren volumes in the top 10.
As of this publication, the ranking of best-selling manga is as follows:
The Apothecary Diary Volume 12 Sousou no Frieren Volume 11 Jujutsu Kaisen Volume 24 Sousou no Frieren Volume 10 Sousou no Frieren Volume 9 Sousou no Frieren Volume 8 Sousou no Frieren Volume 7 Sousou no Frieren Volume 6 Sousou no Frieren Volume 5 Sousou no Frieren Volume 3 Sousou no Frieren episode 4 Isekai Izakaya “Nobu” episode 17 SPY x Family episode 12 The Apothecary Diary episode 1 Sousou no Freeze episode 1
Perhaps the reason episode 1 ranked relatively low (even though it still sold well) is because the first 4 episodes have completely adapted episode 1!
Taking into account the overall manga rankings across all categories, Sousou no Frieren also holds a solid position with the most sales in the following positions:
Sousou no Frieren Vol 11 in 2nd place Sousou no Frieren Vol 10 in 11th place Sousou no Frieren Vol 9 in 14th place Sousou no Frieren Vol 8 in 15th place Sousou no Frieren Vol 7 in 16th place Sousou no Frieren Vol 6 at No. 17 Sousou no Frieren Vol 5 at No. 18 Sousou no Frieren Vol 3 at No. 19 Sousou no Frieren Vol 4 at No. 20
There are nine volumes of Sousou no Frieren in the top 20 best-selling manga volumes on Amazon Japan. Frieren’s Twitter tweeted congratulations on this achievement:
Volumes 1 to 11 are all ranked in the top 16 of Amazon’s best-selling rankings????
