Bookscan’s number for November came out this week, and manga went up by one title to six total. Attack on Titan: No Regrets stand as the top manga, but just shy of taking the whole list. Naruto doesn’t change much, only dropping two spots, while Attack on Titan Vol 1 takes the highest tumble, 13 spots to come just short of dropping off. The bigger they are, right? Seven Seas has another solid title with No Game, No Life making the top 20, as well as hanging near the middle. Here too though, Kodansha dominates, while the other publishers have to suffice with one spot each.
