About this chart

Eiichiro Oda's One Piece (1997 to present) stands alone at 600 million copies in circulation, per its publisher Shueisha. Doraemon (1969 to 1996) and Golgo 13 (1968 to present) are tied at 300 million, then Case Closed / Detective Conan at 270 million, Dragon Ball at 260 million and Naruto at 250 million. Demon Slayer reached 220 million in just 23 volumes between 2016 and 2020.

The figures count collected tankobon volumes, not magazine sales. For most recent series the number is copies in circulation or in print as announced by publishers, not verified sales, and some include digital. Slam Dunk is at 185 million, Jujutsu Kaisen at 150 million, Attack on Titan at 140 million and Bleach at 130 million. The ranking is a single snapshot, so there is no year-by-year history.
