68
The Seven Deadly Sins itself is complete at 41 volumes; the additional volumes belong to the separate sequel Four Knights of the Apocalypse.
Full reasoning
Kodansha's official page for The Seven Deadly Sins labels the series complete and shows its final volume as volume 41, published on May 15, 2020.
Kodansha separately lists Four Knights of the Apocalypse as a different manga series, explicitly calling it the "official sequel" to The Seven Deadly Sins, with its own publication count. As of the current official series page, Four Knights of the Apocalypse has 28 volumes.
So listing The Seven Deadly Sins itself as having 68 collected volumes incorrectly merges a finished series (41 vols.) with its separate sequel series.

Shōnen
Minami no Teiō is not a shōnen manga; it ran in Weekly Manga Goraku, an adult men's/青年 comic magazine.
Full reasoning
This entry classifies Minami no Teiō as Shōnen, but the series ran in Weekly Manga Goraku, which is categorized as a male-oriented adult comic magazine rather than a boys' magazine.
Two sources support that:
- A 2026 Nihon Bungeisha press release says Minami no Teiō was published in Weekly Manga Goraku.
- Fujisan's listing for Weekly Manga Goraku describes the magazine as a "男性向け週刊漫画雑誌" and places it in "青年コミック・漫画".
Because shōnen refers to manga aimed at boys, while Weekly Manga Goraku is categorized for adult men/seinen, labeling Minami no Teiō as Shōnen is inaccurate.
