And here are the full sales. Vol 20 cratered, that's well known. The depressing turns of events obviously played a part.

He probably thought it was a good idea and then never checked to see if it was.

Looks like Yoshida posters are the only thing keeping this dead manga off of suicide watch.

Kinda what I expected. I'm sorry Fujimoto's such a hack, I really am, but I'm still holding out hope that the manga will improve at some point on it's own merit without any movie boosts nor nothing. I predict #22 will flop for around 40-50k, meaning more than this one, more akin to #19, because in this volume there's no other characters nor parallel side plots, meaning it's just Yoru, Denji and Asa doing noting, repeating the same dialogues we already heard and being boring and unlikable. The scene of Denji crying, screaming and jobbing won't help the sales either, and neither will the nuke asspull.
