Just in case you missed it, Tatsuki Fujimoto’s Chainsaw Man is officially back! The first chapter of Part 2 launched yesterday, so now is a great time to continue celebrating the series’ success. The latest update from NPD BookScan’s monthly top 20 for adult graphic novels has the 11th volume of the manga in the top spot, followed by a ton of SPY x FAMILY, JUJUTSU KAISEN and more.
Yep, it’s manga all the way down for June’s list, with all 20 spots claimed. All but two of the releases are from VIZ Media—Kodansha Comics and Yen Press made two of the spots—and you can see the full top 20 for June below.

As ICv2 notes, all of the titles on here other than Chainsaw Man—which has an anime on the way this October—and Deadpool: Samurai, have anime adaptations driving sales. Considering how well it’s done pre-anime, it should be interesting to see how Chainsaw Man performs once MAPPA’s adaptation premieres.
