10. Kingdom Heats II Vol.3


I assume this is supposed to read "Kingdom Hearts II" rather than "Kingdom Heats II."

So much good titles here...

SnK dominating as always, vol 1 will never fall from the list, that is certain.
Nice to see SAO manga doing well there. Also S&W

What is this "Attack on Titan" thing? Is it some kind of North Korean subliminal message at overthrowing the Titan of the world, America?

Also, it is great to see the Yen-Press Spice and Wolf novels on that list. They do such an amazing job with the translations imo.

EDIT: Whoops. It's the Spice & Wolf manga. It's probably still good.

Serious question here. Does this list include light novels? On amazon the SAO and S&W novels always outsell their manga counterparts by far but I've never seen them on the bestsellers. If it does include light novels maybe LNs really do have no chance in the west.

*1.Attack on Titan Vol.1



It's like Frozen. The next thing I see that is Frozen or AoT, I'm punching off the rack.

Freaking Hot Topic had more AoT stuff than they did Supernatural, which is crazy.

Like, the foundation of knowledge you'd need to impart to this person before you could even begin to drag them out of their sinkhole of ignorance would cost thousands of dollars, if it were coming from a University?" -MAL in a nutshell.

That's exactly what I was gonna write lol. AoT is definitely one of the more annoying titles now, I'm kinda of tired of seeing it everywhere.

But dang, no Food Wars this week. I was hoping it'd sell more with the anime coming soon, but I guess I was wrong.

For some odd reason the negative comments about snk puts a smile on my face. Their annoyance towards snk is my enjoyment. I pray that snk continues to be on this list so I can see more comments of people bitching and
crying like little children over some sales. Lol keep them coming folks I look forward to next weeks rants, and the week after, and the next week, and the week after. Basically I look forward every week with your displeasure towards snk. Cheer up guys at least you have something to focus your anger on. ;)

Man still volume 1 in fist place? I mean AoT is super good, but this is jusy unreal...
What is the most cowardly and shameful thing in human conduct? It's when people with power and people who flatter them hide in safe places and extol war, force patriotism and self-sacrifice on others, then send them to the battlefield to die. For the sake of peace in the universe, before we continue this fruitless war with the Empire, mustn't we first start by exterminating such evil parasites? - Yang Wenli

Waste your life in hate and whining.



People should be happy that a series keep selling good in a non-domestic market, but apparently the end of the world came instead ^^

It's good the SnK franchise supports its sales, 'cause the Aria's adventure was no good. The OVA fixes it, though.

I don't understand why you can never take any sort of not-positive comments about Attack on Titan. Like srs. Not everyone is going to like your favorite series.

And it's not bitching and whining; it's more like we're saying, "AoT on the list again? Damn!" I love the series, and the manga is phenomenal, but it's pretty bizarre to see it on the charts for nearly two years in a row. If it were any other series it would've fallen off the top ten many many times since it's release.

P.S. Which one is SnK?

It has nothing to do with being hipster, in fact there are dozens of hipsters watchingg mainstream 'anime' like SnK and SOA claiming that are the best, I hate those so called 'hipsters'.

Oh and don't use the word 'hipster' too fast, it's not the word for someone who's pointing out their hate.[/quote]

[/quote]Wait so you are immediately a hipster for finding Sao and AOT or I take it we might as well add the shounen kings, Vampire knight and everything that has been released in America that became way too popular for its own good the best ? isn't that a ''hipster'' way of approaching things ?

Also dont airqoute anime like that, it makes you look pretentious and thanks to you now I look pretentious for using the word pretentious.
Just because you don't like something doesn't mean you can lower its merit by doing this ''anime''.

Anyway I agree AOT vol 1 HAS TO GO! but that's it for me.
Just that blasted volume 1 that has been on the list for years now, still not getting it why it keeps selling so much.
I mean sure the anime was fantastic in almost every possible way from art direction to OST but its the first time I have seen an anime boost work so great.

That's why I made a question and not an affirmation!
And please explain me why it makes you hate the manga being popular
