How is Karakuridōji Ultimo #1 previous rank #1, when GX #7 previous rank is #1?
Anyways, I'm really glad that people also enjoy Ultimo. It was a great series, but sadly was taken out of SJ Magazine. Hopefully I can one day just start buying the graphic novels for the series... |

Man, sales must be way low this week if Ultimo #1 can find a way to sneak on the chart.

An Excellent list outside of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX,K-ON and Negima! Magister Negi Magi which I'm not to fond of..those 3 in 1 editions are selling quite nicely for Viz no doubt.

I think it's more accurate to say that outside of 15-20 series, no one is buying manga, Ultimo was released a year ago. I would be shocked if it took more than a few hundred to make this list. |

So, K-On is selling that low? |

For all I know the 3-1 are selling really well, but the addition of a year old volume of Ultimo makes me doubt that. |

Maybe Ultimo is surging in popularity or something. A bunch of Black Butler volumes usually find their way onto the list whenever anything Black Butler-related happens (new volume, new Anime release, etc.), so maybe Ultimo was advertised heavily in SJ magazine or something. Or maybe people are buying it because they can't read it in SJ any more.

I wonder why old issues of naruto are selling better than the current one? And GX might lose it's #1 spot once Naruto 52 comes out

I don't know why everyone's getting so worked up. ULTIMO selling well is cool by me. Not the best series, but it presents some interesting ideas and I def wanna see it finished.

The problem is that we don't know if Ultimo is selling well, I question why Ultimo would all of a sudden sell a ton of copies. |

One word: Borders. |

I hope that wasn't an attack on Ultimo, but I do think it's funny/weird as well. And @ the Border comment: That's probably it considering my Borders had like 15 extra copies they were trying to sell yesterday. |
