Hetalia at #1. No surprise there. Very Happy

I am surprised that Maximum Ride's hung in there so nice and high. O_O I'm a fan of the original novels, but I didn't know that that manga was so popular.

And welcome back Black Butler. Anime hyper

I should've guessed Hetalia at #1. I bought the thing when the day it came out Anime hyper

Anyways, it looks like Naruto is never going down, and Shana and Bakuman are holding on for dear life.

I bought Hetalia, Alice in the Country of Hearts and Dogs. I'm happy to see Tokyopop getting a couple of hits with Hetalia and Alice. Maybe then they can afford to go back and continue more of those poor sellers they put on hiatus a couple of years ago.

Also, it's nice to see some Seinen manga sell well. Maybe it'll prompt Viz to get some more. Heck, bring us more manga for older readers in general.

Yeah, I'm beginning to think that there will always at least be 1 Naruto volume in the Top 10 for the rest of its existence. Especially since next (technically this) week is the next volumes release.

Honestly, that's a very fair assessment.

Wow Shakugan no Shana. Call me surprised.

Dont get me wrong. I am a HUGE Shana fan. But the manga is definatly the weak link between the novels (which I think they should re-release the ones that are already out and then continue releasing them.) and the anime. But Congratz Shana, I still buy all your stuff!

Wow, I'm actually a bit surprised that Twilight fell off the list. But it had a very long, solid run - hopefully Yen Press gained a large boost in sales from it.

Also a little bit surprised (but not by too much) by Hetalia being #1. I know it's extremely popular, but didn't expect it to be ranked up at the highest spot. But hey, more power to Tokyopop and the series for it then!

I'm actually looking forward to next week's list to see if Hetalia will sell enough in it's 2nd week to outdo the brand new Naruto volume that will be coming out this week.

Yeah I was shocked as well. It's too bad the series isn't all that popular as it should be. If only I had a job, then I could buy all the volumes for this great series.
