The rebirth of the author Naoya Matsumoto took place on Shonen Jump + with the surprise monster # 8. The title, which was also published on MangaPlus in English and Spanish, has become increasingly popular after a bombshell and has now been consolidated in the Shueisha Home app. Last week though For Monster # 8, the challenge of the volumes has also begun.

To prove that you are a success Monster # 8 had solid numbers even in the Tankobon sales charts. Shueisha believed in this project so much that she printed 200,000 copies for Monster # 8 Volume 1. An edition that had not been seen for a first edition for a long time, especially for such an unnamed author.

The The first two weeks confirmed the success of Monster # 8 and the copies printed by Shueisha don’t seem enough. With the new release of the Oricon data, Monster # 8 Volume 1 has sold 160,235 copies. That number enabled him to overcome a title of nobility known as Dragon Ball Super, with Volume 14 of the manga Toyotaro and Toriyama, which sold 159,402 copies, about 1,000 fewer than then. A small difference, but still very significant taking into account the different histories of the two titles.

It therefore seems that Shonen Jump + hit the bull’s eye again with a manga that will be talked about for a long time.
