Kimi ni Todoke Manga Still Well Received
Kimi ni Todoke has been doing really well and the reception is very good. And you know what? It continues to get better.
On Oricon’s weekly chart of the top 100 manga in Japan, all 12 volumes of the Kimi ni Todoke manga are on the chart with the recently released 12th volume in the #1 spot. It has already sold 570,979 copies in its first week sales which is the highest that the series has seen.
Since Oricon began publishing its book sales charts in 2008, every Kimi ni Todoke volume from the 6th one onward has ranked #1 during its first week of sales. The last seven volumes have collectively sold over 1 million copies.
I watched the anime last year and did not miss a single episode every week. After it ended this year, I could not wait for the second season to come so I went on to read the manga. I rarely read mangas because I prefer watching videos than frames of still pictures, so for me it says a lot about the series.

KnT was cute initially, but I somehow lost interest a dozen chapters in. I thought I’d love it, since I know girls like them and they seemed to be fairly realistic for a shoujo, but after a while I just lost interest. It just plodded along and eventually felt artificially lengthened. That same perception made the anime plain tedious for me. I can read a chapter or two of the manga in the same time, and not feel like I’m watching paint dry. I guess when the cuteness and novelty wore off for me, there wasn’t much else about KnT. I’ll have to catch up with the manga and see whether they successfully kiss before they graduate from high school.
