Items with dollar signs ($) were part of a deeply discounted Kindle sale this week
N = New listing appearing on list for first time 
R = Item returning to the list after having been off for 1 or more weeks

Commentary:

  • No surprise for this week's new #1, as Umbrella Academy dominates the top of the chart this week, driven by the Netflix series. The first collection is currently #55 on the overall Amazon book chart, and all five extant versions of the collections land in the top ten.
  • The top debut this week is the pre-order for the third Umbrella Academy collection (not due out until August!) Other debuts this week include the first volume of the new edition of the classic manga Urusei Yatsura; a new volume of Tokyo Ghoul: re; the pre-order for the second defuse hardcover of Berserk; and Kindle editions of several volumes of Battle Angel Alita (the first three volumes are available through Kindle Unlimited and thus are removed from these chart summaries). So a lot of manga debuts this week!
