You know, I'm really surprised I haven't seen the last volume of Fruits Basket, which has been released recently, not make it on the top seller list >_> For being such a popular manga when it came out, you would at LEAST think that people would pick it up and see how it ended! Especially if the last volume of Black Cat randomly made an appearance on there...

Give it a couple more weeks, but notice the dates for this list. These sells rankings are two weeks old and Fruits Basket #23 was only released a couple of days ago.

They're all the same volumes as the week before. Is the much higher turnover rate for the Japanese charts simply a function of greater selection?

Probably that and the fact that manga just sells a lot more over there across all demographics.

Ah my bad, I forgot to look at the date Anime hyper I always forget that best-seller charts are always weeks behind.
