Mangas that I like and they're on the list: kyou koi and Kimi ni todoke.

Really happy to see Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaetemo Omaera ga Warui! doing quite well. It was surprising since I don't remember seeing its 1st volume in the ranks.

May 31, 2012 2:42 AM by kurosaki_kabuto

I wonder if Kimi no Todoke volume sales are record for a shoujo manga? or is there other shoujo series with sales higher than this for a single volume?

May 30, 2012 10:53 PM by Han-yuu
