Congrats to SNK for reaching that milestone. Let's see how long will it stay in top 10.

Manga sales have slowed to a point where being in the top ten for 100 weeks still gets you < 125k sales. What's with the decrease in sales?

Two reasons:

Digital market- Some less conservative people/ non collectors would rather opt for the faster and cheaper digital distribution by viz causing a drop in the sales of physical copies. This didn't exist or wasn't prevalent back then.
Piracy- With the creation of sites like mangafox and whatnot, you can now read a chapter even before it is even released compared to before when you had to wait for like several days or weeks for a half decent translated scan.

Basically the answer is: The Internet.

Once SnK's Season 2 airs, most titles on the list will be wipe out and will be replace by SnK's volumes lol

Who buys that Zelda manga? It's too damn big, no normal manga collector would buy it. It just doesn't fit in with the rest, extremely tall and thin. Not to mention sloppy coloring and art, have no clue why it has been so successful. Zelda fanboys must be buying this shit by the dozen.

100 weeks of AOT, woohoo.

I don't know anything about Zelda, but seriously it's like the 4th time it's been 1st

Congrats on AoT. I may have complained about it before but i'm happy for the fans. Rosario Vampire continued inclusion aint surprising being its Final vol and all. Zelda hype train is also still rolling around, Nice. StudyXStudy~! Go DxD and do AssassClass..

Maybe you are talking about Novel vol1, which came out much earlier, if I'm not mistaken. This is Manga adaptation. :)

Oh, it's the manga version? No wonder then :D

Wait, DanMachi vol. 1 came out just last week? Hmm, that's strange. I got my own copy like almost 2 months ago... But it's really nice to see it selling so highly in America.

Attack on Titan Vol 1 100th week milestone.

DanMachi doing well apparently just like the LN.

Assassination Classroom has been in the bottom 5 for awhile in the last few weeks. I hope it can climb higher.
