Nice to see some variety on the list. The absence of Naruto is a surprise. Of that list I bought Hetalia, Bund, Berserk and Deadman Wonderland. It's nice to see Seven Seas and Dark Horse make the list once and awhile too.

Glad to see Deadman Wonderland on the list. It makes me more optamistic that an R1 company(Funimation), will license the anime right off the bat.

Same here. I've gotta track down vol. 1 and buy it.
Granted, I was pretty miffed that TP translated Yoh's name as "Yo" but I suppose even that is acceptable over time, given that the rest of the translation is handled very well.
After all, I've grown fond of far stranger names... (Light, Backyard Bottomslash, Nice Holystone, Jacuzzi Splot, Allelujah Haptism, etc.)

Thirded. I'm really happy to see it on the list. If it was doing this well then I am guess the gap between the release of volume 3 and volume 4(Febuary) isn't due to poor sales, but probably to the whole Kadokawa deal. Man they just had to ruin nice release sheduele.
And the 6 titles are all from different companies. Nice. And only one Viz title on the list.

I cried in jubilation that Naruto isn't on it this week, probably because its the week before the release of the newest one, but still.
I'm also proud to say I helped propel DitVB to the #2 spot! Seven Seas FTW!

Seven Seas is damn lucky to have Vampire Bund, seems like that's the only thing keeping them afloat. Not that I'm upset or anything; on the contrary, I'm ecstatic and looking forward to their release of the Toradora! manga.

We also publish a popular juvenile fiction series called Avalon: Web of Magic, and we have a solid backlist of titles that we're constantly reprinting.
Re: Toradora! -- Just finished proofing the script for that on Monday and passed it off to the letterer. So book 1 is starting to take shape.

So when does NY actually get in the new volumes? Because the new Naruto and One Piece is out and it's nowhere be seen on here. Not that I care...

Haa, nice to see Hetalia at #1 (no shocker there). But am quite pleasantly surprised to see Maid Sama up there once again. Guess this series has really gained momentum. ^^

Those were released this week, and this is last week's bestsellers, hence why they're not here. I'm sure they'll both be on it next week, Naruto will probably be #1 for the next month or 2, so...

It wouldn't surprise me if this will be the only time we see one Viz title on the list.
