Amazon has two debut titles as well. One-Punch Man Vol 4‘s pre-order shoots it up the list, but not quite close enough to join Vols 1-3, who continue to reign over the top three spots. Tokyo Ghoul lines up nicely after One-Punch Man Vol 1-3, though there is some back and forth between the volumes. The only non-Viz Media title is also the other debut title. Yen Press’ Sword Art Online Phantom Bullet Novel Vol 6 just squeaks in at #10.
