This year’s June issue of Akita Shoten’s Bessatsu Shōnen Champion magazine announced on Friday that Wataru Watanabe’s Yowamushi Pedal manga has 17 million copies in print.
The 43rd compiled volume revealed in January 2016 that the manga had 15 million copies in print at the time.
The Yowamushi Pedal: Spare Bike spinoff manga also received an anime adaptation with a two-week run in theaters last September.
The first anime seasons inspired two compilation films, and a feature film sequel opened in August 2015.
