🥳 Demon Slayer Hits 220 Million Copies – 7th Best-Selling Manga Ever!
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba has officially crossed 220 million copies in circulation worldwide! This massive achievement makes it the 7th best-selling manga series in history – and all within just 23 volumes. 📚🔥
📈 How Did It Get Here So Fast?
Created by Koyoharu Gotouge, the manga ran from 2016 to 2020 in Weekly Shonen Jump. While it began with moderate success, the anime adaptation by Ufotable changed everything. The explosive popularity of the Mugen Train movie and subsequent anime seasons pushed its sales to historic levels.
- 100M copies by October 2020
- 150M by February 2021
- 220M by July 2025 (164M Japan + 56M Overseas)
