Manga rankings

How English manga editions compare with Japan — built from the release dates of every series we track, updated daily.

Each ranking uses the same data as our series pages: English release dates announced by publishers, and Japanese release dates from Rui. Only series still getting new English volumes are counted where it matters (behind, caught up, pace and wait), so finished or dropped series don't crowd the lists.
