For #27, the title should be Ateya no Tsubaki.

Would really, really love to see an anime adaptation of Sangatsu no Lion green-lit.

This is a message for ANN staff: you've posted a wrong ranking for second week. This March 26 - April 1 ranking was published weeks ago, and this week the ranking that was due to come is April 30 - May 6.

Thanks

I think they are aware of that, but apparently have fallen behind on scraping and translating the data from the source. I imagine the number of Japanese translators on their staff is limited. I recall Justin said he could, not sure if the others can.

That's what I don't understand. Besides from the fact that it only takes the translation of titles that they already know, in worst case scenario they shouldn't publish any ranking, or just delay it, but why publish again a ranking they already published weeks ago? It makes no sense.

ANN have NEVER published the comic ranking for March 26 - April 1 before! this is the first time they are just behind so STOP WHINGING everytime they post the catch up ranking.

Thank you for pointing that out. The title in the article has been corrected.

Yes, we have fallen behind in these rankings and are working toward getting them back up to date.

First of all learn to write WHINE correctly, and second I wasn't whining, just asking politely and even saying "thanks".

Just FYI: Whinge is a very common synonym for moan/whine here in the UK, so Ushio is perfectly correct using it in this context Laughing Check dictionary.com if you don't believe me.
