It has only been a few months since Kagurabachi began its serialization. Within a short time, it managed to climb up to the top ten most-read manga, according to Shueisha. It is quite rare to see a manga becoming so popular without the release of its first volume. Fans are expecting the manga to continue its unique plot so that more people tune in to its worlds.
The anime and manga industry becoming mainstream has helped the manga reach every corner of the world, creating a fanbase of millions. Even though it is still early, many fans want to see the manga adapted into an anime soon. But the fans will be shocked to know that Kagurabachi is not at the top of AnimeJapan’s ten manga that the fans want to see get an anime adaptation.
Kagurabachi Has A Long Way To Go To Reach The Top
The anime and manga industry is one of the most loved industries in the world, with millions of fans always on the lookout to locate the top manga and anime. As a result, there is a particular list dedicated to the manga that the fans want to see adapted into an anime. AnimeJapan hosted a poll to determine the top ten manga that the fans preferred to watch as an anime.
The ‘Manga We Want to See Animated Ranking’ poll took place on March 22, 2024, and helped determine the seventh edition of AnimeJapan’s esteemed list. After breaking the top ten of most-read manga, Kagurabachi broke into the top ten manga list from AnimeJapan. Even though Kagurabachi has massive popularity, it only managed to grab the seventh position. There were a total of 103,473 votes cast to determine the list.
Kagurabachi is only the seventh, and there are several manga that are more popular than the action-adventure one. Kagurabachi has come a long way since its inception, but it has still a long way to go. Fans are hopeful that they might soon hear the creators announcing its anime adaptation. The manga that topped the list is Hami Nakasora’s Shinanonchi no Ikuru.
AnimeJapan’s List Has Several Hidden Gems
AnimeJapan’s top ten list has nine other manga apart from Kagurabachi. All of them are hidden gems, and the manga readers could give them a try. Apart from Shinanonchi no Ikuru, there is Shogakusei Emamoto Emumi no Katte Kimama Life, which revolves around a kid. RAB no Nichijo Egaitemita by Maron is also a popular manga that might soon get an anime adaptation.
The mangaka conveyed their heartfelt gratitude through messages and mentioned doing better in the future. The voting lines were open from February 1, 2024, to March 4, 2024. Kagurabachi had to face 49 other manga to make its place on the prestigious list. There were no particular genres, so the poll proved quite well-competed.
But after determining the votes, Takeru Hokazono’s magnum opus maintained its status as one of the most fan-favorite anime. Not only Kagurabachi fans, but others are also excited and eagerly waiting for all the manga on the list. So, the animation studios might soon become busy with too much work.
