    General & Others OP Manga Sales Declining

    A lot of OP volume purchases are front loaded. It's weird. Volume 101 has 1.5 million copies sold which is higher than most manga volumes in December save for Jujutsu Kaisen, but it sells very little beyond that point and it drops. Seriously go check oricon weekly. OP is sells extremely well...

    It's also expectations. People thought they'd get more of Amazon Lily/Impel Down/Marineford, not Pre-TS type arcs, which is exactly what we've gotten since post-TS.

    Yes...it literally did.... Volume 52 is when Zoro disappears that is literally the volume where things go to shit for the crew. How can you say that had no effect on sales lmao? 2009 sales, which were post sabaody and pre-marineford (which SETUP Marineford), are nearly double 2008's. I can...

    I really don't think it's the formulaic set up for arcs. For sure, execution may be a part of the problem, but I think people are exaggerating when they talk about OPS decline. Look at @DarkWitch 's graph. Then look at the number of volumes released per year. Then recall that One Piece is a...

    Edit: sorry this is a good representation. Take note of the volume count people.

    Volume 49 and 50 are thriller bark mostly lol. And there is a significant plottwist in 2009 where they all split up on sabaody. It's 1 major plotline that ties to Ace. If you count Marineford, you need to count what came before it that set it up because 2009 is when everything changed for the...

    Yes that's what I said. And no, check 2008. It was selling 5 million at 4 volumes per year pre-marineford. 2009 was basically Marineford (them losing at Sabaody, Impel Down etc; the "plot twist" of everyone being split up). It's selling 2 million more on less volumes still

    Funny thing is this sales chart came out before volume 101 released in a week. The #4 and 5 spots above one piece (Attack on Titan and MHA) are barely above it with 4 volumes released already for MHA this year and AoT ended. People shat on OPs sales last year when it once again had only 3...

    7 million copies still sold this year for a series with over 100 volumes that barely outputs 3 volumes yearly. "Destroyed" he says lmao. You guys are ridiculous, young kids these days have far easier investments to make with manga. One Piece is a huge ass commitment for anyone now. I've...
