Huzzah and congrats to everyone! I'm so so SO happy to see Fruits Basket not only made the list--but ranked first! Anime hyper

Naruto is a given but I find it interesting to see that the most popular--in sales, at least--of the vols. isn't the most recent, as one might expect.

Vampire Knight and Bleach are also fairly easily guessed to place, but I was pleasantly surprised to see Negima! so high up on the list. Especially considering the number of juggernauts its up against (true enough furuba doesn't rank in the same league as Naruto & Bleach, but I've seen enough of an impact made by it to be worthy of mention).

Can anyone tell me if this is actually printed in the paper, or if it's solely an online thing? I'd like to take a look at the printed list, if it exists.

For two weeks running, actually. I'm glad to see that there is some variety on that list, although it is still dominated half-way by Naruto. Hopefully some other titles will make it on there, but Naruto won't go away anytime soon. And Fruits Basket only has so much more to go...

I just finished reading both Fruits Basket and Negima! this weekend. I am curious to see what comes in the final volume of Furuba, and look forward to more of the new story arc that was kicked off in Volume 21 of Negima!

i know its never going to happen... but it'd be nice of some of the more niche titles could beat the lowest common denominator monsters (Naruto, etc.)... *sigh* HidaSketch... Aria... you can do it, maybe~
