I guess that preview in Jump was good for BC. But I never heard it being a weak-selling title, so I don't know why it was needed-unless news about To Love-Ru getting published is on the horizon?

Probably nowhere near the top 50 still. That list probably continues as Naruto, Fruits Basket, and Bleach for a while.

Same here. And I'm sure it will, hon. The last several have had some of the highest rankings of any manga. It stills holds the top spot from the 150 list, if I recall correctly. Something like #16.

Dern, Naruto's been on the list for a LONG time now, hasn't it? I wish One Piece would get on the list...

Indeed, at first I wasn't surprised by Viz' slow release of One Piece since it's not as popular in America compared to Naruto/Bleach, but I've been buying the Gintama volumes as they come out and realized Viz is releasing them every two months! Now, I'm happy with it being released like that because I love Gintama, but it's an ever more obscure series here than One Piece, so there shouldn't be anything stopping Viz from releasing the OP volumes at a faster rate.

The Naruto obsessers and Sasuke obsessers are what is keeping Naruto on the list... It takes up a 1/4 of Shonen Jump, and trhat's just the manga! The extras just take up more space. They never have specials for the One Piece video games, heck, they barely mention the anime! I don't despise Naruto, but I don't love it, either..

Just remember people, that this isn't the USA Booklist. I can tell that some of you are referencing it with your posts. Not to say that you're wrong or anything, but it may be good to clear up the confusion that way.
