I don't find it predictable at all. I'm astonished the top papers are all Japanese, with Yomiuri Shimbun (14,246,000) and Asahi Shimbun (12,326,000) each having more than twice the circulation of the next highest (which is also Japanese); if you'd asked me "What's the paper with the highest circulation in the world?" I'd have guessed Renmin Ribao (People’s Daily) -- I mean, there are over a billion Chinese! But I guess literacy isn't as widespread as I thought, or people just aren't in the habit of reading newspapers. And the highest Chinese paper on the list is Canako Xiaoxi, which I've never heard of -- though by googling, I discover it's a typo for Cankao Xiaoxi (Reference News). Hmm, and this page says:
The party's newspapers Renmin Ribao (People's Daily) and Guangming Ribao (Enlightenment Daily), and the People's Liberation Army's Jiefangjun Bao (Liberation Army Daily) continued to have the largest circulation... Cankao Xiaoxi (Reference News), an official news organ that carried foreign news items in Chinese translation, was available to cadres and their families. In 1980 it enjoyed a circulation of 11 million, but, with the subsequent proliferation of other news sources, its circulation dropped to 4 million in 1985, causing the subscription policy to be changed to make it available to all Chinese.

According to the Guinness Book of Records, the daily circulation of the Soviet newspaper Trud exceeded 21,500,000 in 1990, while the Soviet weekly Argumenty i fakty boasted the circulation of 33,500,000 in 1991.
According to United Nations data from 1995 Japan has three daily papers - the Asahi Shimbun, Mainichi Shimbun and Yomiuri Shimbun - with circulations well above 4 million. Germany's Bild, with a circulation of 4.5 million, was the only other paper in that category.
In the United Kingdom The Sun is the top seller, with around 3.2 million copies distributed daily (late-2004).
In India, The Times of India is the largest English newspaper with 2.14 million copies daily.
In the U.S., USA Today has a daily circulation of approximately 2 million, making it the most widely distributed paper in the U. S.
A common measure of a newspaper's health is market penetration. Market penetration is expressed as a percentage of households that receive a copy of the newspaper against the total number of households in the paper's market area. In the 1920s, on a national basis in the U.S., daily newspapers achieved market penetration of 130 percent (meaning the average U.S. household received 1.3 newspapers). As other media, such as radio and television, began to compete with newspapers, and as printing became easier and less expensive giving rise to a greater diversity of publications, market penetration began to decline. It wasn't until the early 1970s, however, that market penetration dipped below 100 percent. By 2000 it was 53 percent
