To provide continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic pellets having a good dispersion property of a reinforcing fiber bundle in injection molded articles and capable of achieving a satisfactory outward appearance of the injection molded articles and satisfying a mechanical strength of the injection molded articles by fully exerting the reinforcing effect, and a manufacturing method of the same. In continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin pellets manufactured by letting a long reinforcing fiber bundle be impregnated with molten thermoplastic resin and pultruding the resin-impregnated reinforcing fiber bundle with twisting, followed by the cutting of a rod-shaped composition formed of the twisted resin-impregnated reinforcing fiber bundle into pellets, a volume filling ratio Vf, which is a proportion of a cross section area of the reinforcing fiber bundle in a cross section area of a pellet cross section in a direction perpendicular to a pellet longitudinal direction, is in a range of 70% to 20%, and a twisting pitch P given by P=L/d (where L is a traveling length of a twist in a rod-shaped composition longitudinal direction per rotation of the rod-shaped composition, and d is a diameter of a circle comparable to an area of a rod-shaped composition cross section) is in a range of 2.5 to 36 (m/rev·m).
