The results for what’s been selling in Japan for the final week of May 2015 has arrived and the book that dominated it was the final volume of Ao Haru Ride, which had a great looking cover. Clocking in at just under 600,000 copies, it’s a good way to bring things to a close before Io Sakisaka’s next work. The week also performed well for Black Butler with its latest installment and the newest volume of Horimiya is definitely strong right out of the gate, which means it’s on our watch of a series that we’ll likely be seeing some anime adaptation chatter about later this year. The release list has a good mix of books that are new and some that are just adding more to the numbers, including seeing the first volume of Kingdom of all series pop into the top 50 again as it added another 18,000 copies.
