>Which is more than enough to prove that even the public caught on.
You cited opinions, not evidence. You're confusing speculation with verification. Just because people guessed 'm-maybe they capped it to protect OP' doesn't make it true. The same people online also think Saitama would solo Goku and that's not Oricon canon either. Shut the fuck up, nigga.
>Yet they are only 100k less than the record number set by One Piece, even though multiple of the previous Kimetsu no Yaiba volumes sold more than 4.5 million units in the year before.
And those sales happened after release and post-anime. That's called sell-through. But first prints are based on pre-orders, retailer demand, and forecasted velocity, not what volumes sold months ago. That's why the final DS volume had a cautious but massive 3.95M first print with a pre-announced reprint.

Eat shit and die, retard.
