The company credited its overall revenue and profit increase to the immense popularity of works such as Naoki Hyakuta's Kaizoku to Yobareta Otoko novel and Hajime Isayama's Attack on Titan manga.


I was gonna say Attack on Titan had to have helped with its profit increase.

Not surprising. Besides manga, they publish a huge amount of regular books in Japan. It's kind of like Penguin Books... Except bigger.
