ouran. :D and glass mask.

I bought over 50 volumes this week and not a single one made the list. :/ I guess only a fraction of them are new.

:3

LOL One Piece Completely OBLITERATED Full Metal Alchemist!!!!!!
:)

I'm happy for Vagabond.

Gintama... good...:)

One Piece overkilling yet again.

And... is that Junjo Romantica I see up there as well? Yaoi is serious business.

That's b/c that FMA volume has been out for a few weeks already.

But man, One Piece 55. In just one week, it's sales almost equals the total for all of the other big manga out there. :D Glad to see the respect in Japan.

one piece :D

and yes, Junjou <33 yaoi is serious business yes yes 8D
all the mangas i bought for this month didn't make it to the list xD

kaichou wa maid sama 8!!! sweet! 8D

Oh oh oh ... got a lot of ladie fans for Junjo Romantica to be very high.

Not my preference but grats to that.

I'm more of clover fan.

Wow. I've only seen 2 out of the 30 top anime ._. i'm falling behind...

I WANT Kemono novels NOW

\

damn straight :P i bought it hahha

This is manga, not anime.

You... You... You have a disease! T^T

*insert jealously*

Go, One Piece!!

Can't wait for the day that One Piece, Bleach and Naruto come out on the same month to see the difference on the same list...

At least one GREAT GREAT GREAT thing inside the top 9 full of shit. :<


Although it should have been one place higher.

^3^

YAY<3

Wait... One Piece beat second place by nearly over a million? Is this right...

Anyway... Vagabond, Gintama and Nodame Cantabile all in top ten. Woohoo.

I figured Gintama would be closer to 500,000 maybe One Piece hurt it.

Junjou in top 10. :D

Now I'm quite new noob to the subject of Manga sales, but what do the 2 numbers from the same entry indicate? For instance: 15, *,*39,098 1,176,688 Fullmetal Alchemist vol.23
On many entries the value in both numbers are the same.
Also, what's with the * (stars) and , (commas) ??

The first number indicates the number of sales that specific volume has accumulated for the week specified.
The second number indicates the number of sales that volume has garnered to date.

So if the two numbers are the same, it means that the specific manga volume was just released this week, as is the case with One Piece. In the case for FMA, it's already been out for a few weeks, thus the first number is drastically lower than the second number.

The *'s denote empty digit fields, from what I believe. And the commas are your typical separation of hundreds, thousands, millions, etc. Like one million is 1,000,000. And nine hundred thousand is *,900,000.

It's called.. manga-i-tis? This is why I'm not that kind of doctor. D:

Go Go Beelzebub!!!

Thanks for the thorough explanation mate. Helped me a bunch :)

More than 1million sells in a week.OMFG!

Those made me smile. :3

one piece got the 1st ??

hahah,,in your face naruto!!

yatta,,one piece is first..^^
