HxH already sells more than Academia by a landslide but expecting it to come back without hiatus isn't happening. Academia doesn't even sell close to Haikyuu so keep dreaming of Academia being in the top 3. Academia hasn't surpassed OPM in volume sales too iirc.
Yea they are seinen but they can still be in the top 3.
Like I said My Hero Academia has everything to place it in a top 3 besides the recognition. Once more people pick it up and spread word about it, it'll pass a lot in sales. Kingdom's great but the bad anime hurts it's reputation. HxH sells more and people like it more but it's inability to produce content consistently should exclude it from any top list, especially a top list involving current selling manga.
its really hard for acaidama to get in top 3 tbh almost impossible seeing the first half sales of 2016
yeah it is
How much recognition is it going to need? It got quite a lot of push already and was aired in a popular time-slot. The anime sales were pretty good but nothing amazing. It may receive more of a boost with season 2 but I don't see it surpassing Haikyuu.

The highest selling volume of KnB was in the mid 800k's and for Haikyuu it was nearly 1M (991k to be exact). KnB's overall sales reached a peak in 2013 with 8.7M (it got #3 spot for that year) and atm Haikyuu's peak for overall sales in a year was in 2014, it got 8.2M sales.
What do you mean how much does it need it hardly has any recognition yet, it's only gotten one season that wasn't pushed or advertised overseas like Nanatsu no Taizai was, MHA's not on Hulu or Netflix which cuts down potential viewers a good bit. AoT took the first season and a few dozen chapters before it gained as much ground and the main reason it did so was people talking, barely anyone on here even reads MHA, how much recognition is there if barely anyone's trying it?
What does overseas recognition have to do about being in the top 3? I don't care about foreign market, just domestic sales (i.e sales in Japan). Maybe you misunderstood there.
That's a pretty big difference and Academia was released earlier. Haikyuu during it's first season release was already surpassing 800k sales with it's best selling volume of that year.
Top 3 isn't Japan stats only you can drop that nonsense at the door if it was Naruto(whose majority of popularity came from overseas) wouldn't be a top 3. Haikyuu's been around longer
Foreign market is very small, I think the biggest outside of Japan is France(?). It makes a small portion. So I don't care about the foreign market.
That's why I said a second season is needed but there's little chance for it to explode to the top 3. It already got promotion/push by Kishi and is getting multiple cover pages in magazine (more than Haikyuu was).
