The volume 1 English-translated paperback manga currently ranks #1 in Amazon for science fiction and horror mangas while #2 in over-all graphic novel sales in the U.S. alone. The manga series has eight (8) entries in Amazon’s top 20 mangas and its popularity is continuing to rise. Its latest compilation volume, Volume 11 has sold about 23 million copies by the end of August 2013.
