According to the American music chart on Sunday, the soundtrack claimed the top spot on the Billboard 200, overtaking American singer Sabrina Carpenter's "Man's Best Friend."
After debuting at No. 8 on June 20, the album remained at No. 2 for seven nonconsecutive weeks before reaching the top.
"Golden," one of the main theme songs from the anime, has also held the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for a cumulative four weeks, simultaneously dominating both of Billboard's main charts.
Billboard said, "'KPop Demon Hunters' rise to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 was preceded by four top 10-charted hits on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart – the most from a soundtrack in nearly 30 years, with the soundtrack the first ever with four simultaneous top 10s."
It attributed the soundtrack's success to the huge popularity of the anime's "sing-along" screenings in the U.S., which led to the upcoming release of additional versions including instrumental and acappella tracks, slated for next month.
