Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Volume 17, the latest volume of the manga series, was released to Japanese book stores on October 4 and, like the demons from the series, the bookstores are losing their heads.
Because of this, some stores are reporting that volumes of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba are taking up every spot on their Top 10 best selling manga, with only the final volume of Mika Yamamori’s Tsubaki-chou Lonely Planet – which was released on September 25 – able to crack the Demon Slayer wall.
So much so, that when the 17th volume of the manga series was released – alongside two companion books based off Demon Slayer – book stores all over Japan sold out, with them having to put up handwritten notes telling customers the bad news.
