"Thus Spoke Rohan is just a fun anthology of 'mystery' stories that are fun to read," shared one enthusiastic fan.

What Lies Ahead for Manga Sales?

As we move into 2026, thereโ€™s a strong chance that both established titles and new entries will continue to see fluctuations in sales. One Piece is likely to maintain its lead, but a solid performance from series like Spy x Family could indicate that audiences are craving innovative narratives that mix humor with action. Experts estimate around a 60% probability that newer titles like Kagurabachi will gain traction, especially if their stories resonate well with audiences. The buzz surrounding World Trigger suggests that its consistent content will keep dedicated fans engaged, presenting a 45% chance it remains a top contender in the rankings. Overall, the demand for relatable characters and engaging plots will likely shape industry trends in the coming months.

A Surprising Echo from the Past

In the world of literature, a curious parallel can be seen with the rise of science fiction in the early 20th century. Just as Kagurabachi has found its footing among die-hard manga fans, pioneering sci-fi authors like Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke began to capture hearts during a time when societal fears turned towards technology. Both genres faced skepticism but thrived as they confronted issues of identity and humanity. In the same way, the current manga landscape is revealing a strong appetite for stories that explore personal and societal complexities, suggesting that as manga evolves, it too may carve out new realms of popularity within culture.
