Re: Chapter release!!

Single chapters are published in WSJ weekly. A volume is different. As others said the volume contain a number of chapters of a single manga in one book. Volume 70 was released last August 4.



If you want to buy Naruto you will be buying it in volumes.

Is the number of chapters that combined is in same amount for every volume

What about other manga

What I know they are controlled by publisher

Is publisher given them the authors a guide of how many chapters it needed to make a one volume and applied to all or it author own decision?

No.

Some volumes have 8 manga chapters.Other volumes have 10 manga chapters.
It is not always the same.

It is also different for other manga
some manga 1 chapter have 20 pages, in other manga 1 chapter have 50 pages
So if a chapter has alot more pages in 1 manga than the other it also means that some manga have less chapters contained in 1 volume
compri?

I think the editor decides when a volume is made as the mangaka is busy enough with drawing already
