Oricon Weekly Manga Chart July 13: One Piece Vol. 115 Leads, Hunter x Hunter Vol. 39 Debuts at No. 2

One Piece Volume 115 claimed the top spot on the Oricon weekly manga chart for the week ending July 13, 2026, with an estimated 627,567 copies sold. Hunter x Hunter Volume 39 debuted at number two, moving 401,775 copies in its first tracking week.

One Piece Maintains Its Stranglehold on No. 1

Eiichiro Oda's One Piece continues to dominate the Japanese manga market with staggering consistency. Volume 115, which explores the backstory of the celebrated king Harald and his son Loki during the ongoing Elbaf arc, moved 627,567 copies during the tracking period. That total represents a commanding margin over every other title on the chart and reinforces the series' status as the best-selling manga franchise in history. With the Elbaf arc delivering revelations about the giants' kingdom and its royal lineage, reader interest remains at peak levels even as the series barrels toward its final saga.

Hunter x Hunter Volume 39 Arrives With Force

Yoshihiro Togashi's Hunter x Hunter Volume 39 debuted at number two with 401,775 copies - an exceptional first-week figure that reflects the massive anticipation surrounding every new installment. The volume continues the Succession Contest arc aboard the Black Whale, where tensions between the Phantom Troupe and the mafia are escalating. Key plot threads include the continuation of Kurapika's training sessions, a revelation from Longhi concerning Beyond that could reshape the contest's trajectory, and Bonolenov's pursuit of Hisoka. Given Togashi's famously irregular release schedule, each new volume is treated as an event by the manga community, and Volume 39's debut numbers confirm that perception.

One-Punch Man Secures Third as the Mid-Chart Gap Widens

One-Punch Man Volume 37, created by ONE with illustration by Yusuke Murata, landed at number three with 72,589 copies. The volume follows the Hero Association's intensified recruitment drive, features Tatsumaki in a promotional hero campaign, and hints at a darker agenda emerging within the organization. A new hero group is forming, and Genos receives an invitation to join - setup that suggests significant plot developments ahead.

The drop-off from second to third place is dramatic. One-Punch Man's 72,589 copies represent less than a fifth of Hunter x Hunter's debut figure, highlighting just how thoroughly Oda and Togashi dominate the manga sales landscape in a class of their own.

Fourth place went to From Old Country Bumpkin to Master Swordsman Volume 9, the popular isekai fantasy series, which sold 58,510 copies. Blue Giant Momentum Volume 8, the latest installment in Shinichi Ishizuka's acclaimed jazz manga saga, rounded out the top five with 51,326 copies.

Lower-Chart Highlights

The bottom half of the chart showcased a blend of established franchises and rising series building momentum. Ichi the Witch Volume 9 landed at number six with 40,583 copies, while Blue Box Volume 26 held at number seven with 38,268 copies. Both are serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump and continue to cultivate dedicated readerships.

Aoashi Brotherfoot Volume 2, a football manga spinoff, claimed number eight with 27,617 copies. Kinnikuman Volume 93, the long-running wrestling manga by Yudetamago, took the ninth spot with 27,036 copies, demonstrating that veteran series still command loyal audiences decades after their original debuts.

This week's chart reinforces a familiar pattern in the manga market: One Piece and Hunter x Hunter occupy a tier entirely their own, while the mid-chart remains a competitive arena where shonen action, sports manga, and genre fiction jostle for readership. With both the Elbaf arc and the Succession Contest in full swing, the grip these two titans hold on the chart's upper reaches shows no sign of loosening.
