And that would be a point if

and
>OP wasn't still in Oricon top 10 every year.
Again, if OP was failing, the 3M prints would stop. Publishers aren’t stupid. Warehousing is expensive. And the only reason you keep high volume print numbers is if
- retailers are still ordering
- older volumes still move (Netflix bump, Gear 5 bump, Film Red bump)
- you have consistent long-tail data across multiple markets
>One Piece continues to sell less and less yet they do not reduce its initial print further, almost like they want to keep the value of Oda's salary which is decided based on printed units, or maybe to reach milestones faster
More tinfoil hat cope. You're now arguing Shueisha is fudging print numbers, wasting money on unused inventory, risking overstock losses just to protect Oda's salary and their legacy metrics. Are you fucking stupid, bro? If OP needed print inflation to survive, its numbers would've dropped hard in 2022-2023. Instead
>oricon rankings (2022–2024)
>still top 5 every year
>still pushing ~5–7 million annually
>still massive merch, anime, film, collabs, etc.
And this isn’t propped up by a one-hit movie or an anime peak, it's sustained, multichannel, legacy-driven. That's the kind of performance that earns confidence in 3M print runs.
>I have provided enough evidence while you keep resorting to appeal to authority fallacy.
No nigga, I'm appealing to industry reality. It's not an 'appeal to authority' to say 'the people who have the actual numbers, logistics, and decades of experience know how to forecast print runs better than Twitter.' That's just common sense.
You're so deep into your own cope you built a circular argument ecosystem
>shueisha sabotaged DS!!
>why didn't they do that? because they’re biased for oda!
>what’s the evidence? the public felt it!
>why is that proof? cause shueisha never denied it!
>some volumes were probably already recycled.

Still mindbroken after you got your ass handed to you that you're now blending cherry-picked facts, unverified rumors, and complete tinfoil bullshit into one salty cope-smoothie, huh you little cuck?
>Demon Slayer broke the record for the most selling manga in a single year.
True. And no one denies that. But here's the problem: it did that for one year only, off the back of an anime adaptation so polished it practically saved that series from fading off into obscurity. That's not long-term dominance, that's a perfect storm. Meanwhile, OP held that record for 10 straight years. DS broke a record for a single year then dipped out before it could defend its throne. OP defined the metric for a decade.
>Demon Slayer has the highest performing movie in the box office and consistently well performing recap movies
Also true. But again, Mugen Train was a perfect freak storm of
>peak covid lockdowns
>no hollywood releases
>no competition
>massive anime hype carryover
Since then?
>Swordsmith Village recap made ~$8.8M
>Hashira Training recap made ¥500M (~$3.2M)
And got out-earned by Bocchi the Rock.
>Demon Slayer episodes had high tv ratings that other late nights shows can only dream of
True, and they've been declining every season:
>Mugen Train TV cut: 21%
>Entertainment District: 9%
>Swordsmith: 8% (premiere), 6-7%
>Hashira Training: 6.4% and got a slight bump to 6.9%
You know what that is, Paco? Not consistency, decline. Meanwhile, OP consistently pulls 3-5% every week in a tougher timeslot for over 20 years.
>Meanwhile One Piece is most promoted manga and is still failing to catch on
Lmao. OP has sold over 516 million copies globally. That's more than DS, Naruto, Bleach, and JJK combined. And it has one of the most expensive TV shows ever made, with a budget higher than GoT that broke records. You're holding your favorite FoTM up against the biggest-selling manga in human history and unironically calling it a failure? That's a mental breakdown in real time.
