I'm surprised to see Naruto and To-Love-Ru at such good positions. Nice to see that Claymore is doing good, too.

Just caught up to volume 43 of Naruto myself (well, technically not a volume yet, but 399 chapters in) and am not surprised to see volume 42 so high as the death of a major character features in that volume.

Oooh. So that what it is! I didn't know it happened in vol 42. This explains Naruto's rank definitely.
Thanks~

I'm not suprised to see Naruto so up high in the charts to be honest. Those chapters were really important for all Naruto fans ~

But I really would've like to see some Bleach in the Top 10 list >_>;

And now that Love-Ru is an anime ~ it'll probably drop some sales,lol.

Yippee! Kaichou wa Maid-sama and Faster than a Kiss got in the Top 10 this week! I saw them at Kinokuniya in NYC today, but I didn't bought them.... And I should check out Angel Heart, heard it's interesting.

yeah, not surprised at all to see Naruto at the top...incredibly pivotal point for the series.
Bleach probably won't be back on that list for another 1~3 weeks. the original OMGWTF shock wore off, so KT-sensei needs to give us more love.

Ah, Naruto is always popular...also, 42 includes a pretty huge event in the Narutoverse, so it's expected. Also, the cover is awesome.

Interestingly, Oricon's list with sales totals (tl blogged) has Worst in #2, Angel Heart in #3, and a few other series higher as well. Since Tohan is a retailer, maybe their rankings are only for their own sales?
