And every time a new One Piece volume outsells everything else by millions I will lose repect for Japan's taste.


This has got to be the most ignorant statement on Japanese manga taste I have ever heard. Do you not realize that manga originated in Japan, and that the Japanese have had just as long to be critical of their own manga? One Piece is the best selling manga series constantly, month by month, year by year for a VERY GOOD REASON. It is no fluke, believe me. The Japanese knows what makes an amazing series. I will always trust the taste of the Japanese when it comes to manga. They know what's up.


I didn't say that!! Wtf?!

This list is different than the usual ones. Nice to see SZS, GTO and Mardock Scramble on there. I'm also happy that Sailor Moon is still in the top 10, and Naruto will most likely always be on these lists due to it's huge fanbase.

how many times do i have to mention on each time a thread like this is made that most people buy yugioh manga for the card that is in there

not to mention that yugioh has the guinnes world record for the most cards sold, making it the most popular card game. which the general public doesnt realize how popular the game actually is.

If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card).

Alexia Tarabotti is laboring under a great many social tribulations. First, she has no soul. Second, she's a spinster whose father is both Italian and dead. Third, she was rudely attacked by a vampire, breaking all standards of social etiquette.
Where to go from there? From bad to worse apparently, for Alexia accidentally kills the vampire -- and then the appalling Lord Maccon (loud, messy, gorgeous, and werewolf) is sent by Queen Victoria to investigate. With unexpected vampires appearing and expected vampires disappearing, everyone seems to believe Alexia responsible. Can she figure out what is actually happening to London's high society? Or will her soulless ability to negate supernatural powers prove useful or just plain embarrassing? Finally, who is the real enemy, and do they have treacle tart?


Basically a manga about Vampires and Werewolves and the Undead..

Sadly one of the greatest series ever - One Piece - got stained heavily in America because of its 4kids dub and thus tainted many who gave the series a chance. It's since been redubbed by funimation but the 4 kids really killed it. Animes a lot more accessible than manga over here so kinda watch anime to get into manga first =P.
