Creator: Yoshitoki Oima Publisher: Kodansha

Short answer

The quick answer

A Silent Voice by Yoshitoki Oima has 7 volumes in English from Kodansha. The Complete Series Box Set includes all seven volumes plus a double-sided 10-by-15-inch poster and a replica of Shoko’s communication notebook (Penguin Random House). The Complete Collector’s Edition is a separate two-book hardcover version of the same story, with about 700 pages of manga per book and more than fifty pages of new content (Penguin Random House). Its two books do not line up one-to-one with the seven regular volumes.

What each edition covers

Numbering: A Silent Voice English single-volume numbering. It describes mapped story units only; separately documented extras remain separate. 4a is the earlier part of original volume 4; 4b is the later part. They are symbolic story segments, not chapter/page counts or mathematically equal halves.

Each record retains its own source-check date. A missing ISBN is reported as not verified; unknown extras are never inferred.

Your shelf

Calculate overlap and new coverage

Select the numbered units and editions you already own, then choose candidate editions to compare. The result uses only this series' numbering system.

Which edition should you check against? The Complete Collector’s Edition’s second book begins in the second half of original volume 4 and runs to the end of the series, so the two books do not line up one-to-one with the seven regular volumes (Penguin Random House, Collector’s Edition).

Work out what you would read for the first time

If you own regular volumes 1–3, the box set adds 4–7 and repeats three: four new volumes. If you own 1–3 and 6–7, your missing volumes are 4 and 5. Marking through your highest number would hide that gap.

The notebook and poster are extras rather than additional manga volumes. Someone with all seven volumes has the whole story even without the replica notebook. The tool does not treat a full repeat purchase as necessary to keep reading.

Choose the right numbering before using the tool

This map splits original volume 4 into story segments 4a and 4b at the point where Collector’s Edition book 2 begins, so it counts eight segments for a seven-volume series. The box set and both Collector’s Edition books are mapped from the publisher records in the table. For why the split exists, read why the Collector’s Edition splits volume 4; for the general method, read how to switch formats without guessing. We make no physical paper, binding or reading-comfort claims.
