Fairy tail!

This is to those who thought a romance manga cannot get good rankings. KnT FTW.

But seriously, what happened to Bleach? I thought it was quite popular?


It becomes shittier and shittier every volume :/

Dec 6, 2010 9:08 AM by eddypc07

Wow...One Piece domination, clearly. Maybe I'll give it a try as well sometime.
As another thing, seems like Fairy Tail has overtaken Bleach.
And what the? Kimi ni Todoke between the firsts? Fascinating really...

Dec 5, 2010 11:55 AM by koleare

Wow, OP is in it's own universe! I mean of course it's not surprising but looking at those sales - it's extremely impressive, especially if you compare it to the last couple of years...epic :D

Good to see KnT up there too, my favourite shoujo

Dec 5, 2010 9:17 AM by onatu

katekyo hitman reborn at #8 !
good~

Dec 3, 2010 1:05 AM by roppuri

Good to see Gintama there, but goddamn Bleach.

One Piece differ from the other shounen
No.


Guess the whole adventure manga is just not your thing right? One Piece is like the logical continuation of Dragonball in many points for me, but early chapters can be a huge letdown for some.

Moshidora is not a light novel, is it?

Dec 1, 2010 8:56 PM by thirdlc

Top 5 = One Piece.. yeah!!
no suprised if OP on top chart/rank..

Dec 1, 2010 7:34 PM by Loneluff

^well yeah you are true, i should've told that its worth from the 'ongoing' ones.. not the ones that are finished or have around 100 chapters or so..
yeah after timeskip there were some ones, but you should've known this 'model' of this for every arc.. skypeia, arhipelago, water 7, arabasta all are having a slow start.. more like a 'discover/adventure' initial chapters.. then through the arc the chapters are getting crazy )

dude stop embarrassing yourself =)

while on other shounen there are 3-4 good chapters from 10, here instead every chapter has its charm..every chapter is worth reading.

mostly because its length ... 1 chapter has huge amount of material.

you will never see in OP threads someone tell - oh nothing happened in this chapter or there was no plot stuff..


Me embarrassing myself? I'm not the one saying that the only shounen worth investing time in is one piece, how narrow minded and wrong you are. There are plenty of shounen that aren't generic battle manga, and are very much worth reading and investing time in. Get a clue.
I also disagree, more recently; post time skip there were a lot of chapters that seemed to have very little progression and quite frankly, were boring as sin.

goodjob One Piece xD

and Durarara! for its light novel ,D

Dec 1, 2010 11:52 AM by sisore

Surprising how Berserk isn't even up there. I thought it was quite popular.


Yeah it is surprising, you'd think with HxH getting a spot up there that berserk would too.
Hell, even a one piece databook is up there, that's just depressing.

hunter x hunter i was gonna pick that up


Don't : o
It's called hiatus x hiatus for a good reason, notice only one volume there: that's because only one volume was released :(

I had no idea one piece would be at the top /sarcasm.
Hooray for Gintama, doesn't have a single best selling volume but is a great seller overall *proud*.

Yeah thanks for that advice
