‘Jujutsu Kaisen’ Tops U.S. March Adult Graphic Novel List
Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen manga came to an end just recently. And while many fans found the final arc to be underwhelming and not in the spirit of the early volumes, Akutami finished the story as he itended to.
And while there is no more manga content, fans of the franchise can still look forward to new episodes of the anime, as there are still many important narrative moments that need to be adapted.
This fact is seemingly helping the manga, as Jujutsu Kaisen vol. 25 managed to become the best-selling adult graphic novel in the United States for the month of March, surpassing the seemingly untouchable Solo Leveling serijes.
Jujutsu Kaisen has also been one of the best-selling titles in recent year, and we cannot deny that despite all the controversies and whatnot, the series was a proper hit and will be remembered as one of the biggest shonen titles of its time.
This popularity has seemingly urged the fans to buy more, as the numbers we have for March confirm that Jujutsu Kaisen has been the best-selling title in the category of adult graphic novels, as per the following data:

To be clear, this is not a full list containing all the data, but if the manga managed to – now, after more than six months and despite the controversies – end up at the top, beating out even Western graphic novels, then that should be enough evidence that Akutami’s work is definitely popular, even now.
