One Piece continues to command the Japanese print market, with the 115th volume securing the #1 spot on Oricon’s monthly comic ranking for July 2026. Released on July 3, the volume moved 1,020,422 copies during the tracking period. This performance follows the series reaching a massive 600 million copies in print worldwide as of earlier this year, bolstered further by the current momentum of the Elbaph arc in the anime adaptation.
The most notable movement on the chart involves Yoshihiro Togashi’s Hunter x Hunter. Volume 39 landed at #2 with 661,825 copies sold. This release represents the series' first new volume in 22 months, directly following the manga's return to serialization on June 29. The sales figures confirm that reader demand remains exceptionally strong for Togashi’s work despite the lengthy gap between volumes.
Rounding out the top three is the 17th volume of the The Apothecary Diaries manga adaptation. Illustrated by Nekokurage, the series continues to hold its ground against industry giants, recording 254,908 copies sold in July. The rest of the top five is completed by Hiromu Arakawa’s Daemons of the Shadow Realm at #4 and the 37th volume of One-Punch Man at #5, reflecting a month dominated by long-running, high-profile franchises.
