Oricon Comic Ranking Summary

3rd place: Detective Conan: Fallen Angel of the Highway

The 2026 Conan movie gets a lightning-fast novelization.

The Wind Goddess vs. the Black Fallen Angel!
A high-speed battle mystery roars to life.

On their way to a bike festival in Yokohama, Conan and his friends are caught up in an accident caused by a black motorcycle racing recklessly down the road. Chasing it is Chihaya Hagiwara of the Kanagawa Prefectural Police—the “Wind Goddess” Ran once saw before. Despite her incredible riding skills, Chihaya narrowly fails to catch the bike.
At the festival, a new white police motorcycle called Angel is unveiled. But then reports come in that a black bike resembling Angel—called Lucifer—has been tearing through Tokyo and evading the police. Who is riding Lucifer, and what is their goal?

2nd place: No Game No Life Vol. 13

In Disboard, a world where everything is decided by games, Sora and his party of heroes have reached the top floor of the Demon King’s tower, armed only with the “hope” rising from the country of the Demonia. They are finally closing in on the Demon King—but in the middle of the decisive battle, Sora is swallowed by a black pillar of light and collapses.

As everyone struggles to believe what has happened, Sora alone smiles faintly as his consciousness fades: “Now the pieces for victory are finally in place.”

Meanwhile, outside the tower, a crimson moon begins to fall. A third party’s shadow creeps closer in the thirteenth volume of the hit isekai fantasy series.

1st place: Cosmic Princess Kaguya!

An overworked, high-spec high school girl × a high-energy Princess Kaguya × a virtual idol!?

A little way into the future.
Iroha Sakayori, an overworked, ultra-capable high school girl living alone to focus on getting into the University of Tokyo, is on her way home one day when she finds a mysterious baby—emerging from a rainbow-glowing “gaming utility pole”!

But that baby rapidly grows up right before her eyes, turning into a spoiled girl who absolutely adores Iroha!
Claiming she came from the moon, the girl is named “Kaguya” by Iroha.
However, once Kaguya learns how The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter ends, she makes a bold declaration—

“I’m going to make it a happy ending. No matter what!”

And then, for some reason, she sets her sights on becoming a top idol in Japan’s largest virtual world, “Tsukuyomi”…!?
