WORLD TRIGGER AND IRUMA-KUN SECURE TOP THREE POSITIONS
World Trigger Volume 30 finished in second place with 103,759 estimated copies sold. Although its weekly sales fell 9.5% from the previous period’s 114,666 copies, the volume’s estimated cumulative sales reached 218,425 copies across the reported tracking periods.
