Jujutsu Kaisen volume 29 ranked at #6, followed by Gachiakuta volume 1 at #9, Jujutsu Kaisen volume 1 at #10, volume 28 at #11, and volume 26 at #15. The list also included the KPop Demon Hunters: The Movie comic adaptation at #4. Separately, Circana BookScan's Top 20 adult graphic novels list for April placed Jujutsu Kaisen volume 29 at #1. That list featured 16 manga volumes, with Gachiakuta volume 1 at #4, and other titles such as Dandadan, One Piece, Witch Hat Atelier, Chainsaw Man, Demon Slayer, The Summer Hikaru Died, and My Dress-Up Darling also appearing. The BookScan chart covers approximately 85% of the U.S. trade print book market and ranks by piece sales.","why_it_matters":"The dual chart placements show Jujutsu Kaisen maintaining strong U.S. print sales momentum with five volumes on the NYT list and a #1 BookScan finish, while Gachiakuta's debut volume enters both rankings, signaling growing mainstream readership for the newer series.","published_at":"2026-05-25T16:30:45.000Z","source_count":1,"sources":["Anime News Network"],"citations":[{"source":"Anime News Network","title":"Jujutsu Kaisen, Gachiakuta Manga Rank on NYT May Bestseller List","url":"https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily-briefs/2026-05-24/jujutsu-kaisen-gachiakuta-manga-rank-on-nyt-may-bestseller-list/.237760"},{"source":"Anime News Network","title":"Jujutsu Kaisen Ranks #1 on Bookscan's April Adult Graphic Novel List in U.S.","url":"https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-05-24/jujutsu-kaisen-ranks-no.1-on-bookscan-april-adult-graphic-novel-list-in-u.s/.237761"}],"license_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","entities":{"anime_titles":[],"manga_titles":["Jujutsu Kaisen","Gachiakuta"],"studios":[],"people":["Gege Akutami"],"type":"news","domain":"manga","is_roundup":true}}}
