*4, 246,605 246,605 Kuroko no Basket, Vol. 18- Doing some insane sales- glad it's so popular :)

10, *96,890 *96,890 Kuroko no Basket, Official Fan Book - Characters Bible- Anyone know where I can get one ^^

17, *41,254 330,606 Uchuu Kyoudai, Vol. 18- Consistent Sale- I'm glad ^^

30, *24,418 *94,290 Fairy Tail, Vol. 33- Fairly low sales- but then again One Piece and Bleach are not on the charts this week.

Light Novels
12, 10,360 133,263 Kuroko no Basket, Vol. 2
14, 10,074 145,969 Kuroko no Basket, Vol. 1

Kuroko is selling in everything, Yay :D

That's because one piece and bleach don't have a new volume release yet. Naruto new volume will be release on 28th July.

OP and Bleach maybe next month.

For the character bible of Kuroko you can buy from CDJapan or Kinokuniya or amazon.

It's up to you. If you live in Japan then any book store has it. Though no stock, Niponbanshin stock arrive this afternoon so maybe you can go there and buy a copy.

Hope that's help. (^_^)

My rating those 2, in a scale of 10, would be:
Nisekoi: 7.4
Last Game: 8.1

I agree with this 100%. But our taste and Japan's taste are always different. :/ Last Game deserves so much more. Its not your cliche series. better than many shoujo which get more sales in Japan....sigh...

Jul 13, 2012 10:40 PM by phoenixalia

Wow SKET in top 10 makes me glad :)

I honestly believe Last Game deserves better compared to Nisekoi. Nisekoi's chapters are very consistent and always give the same feeling I have when I read them. I'm also reading Nisekoi, sometimes it's good, sometimes bad.

My rating those 2, in a scale of 10, would be:
Nisekoi: 7.4
Last Game: 8.1

Yay for Natsume Yuujinchou :)

Please post this list in the upcoming weeks as well! Thanks!
A lot Dengeki Daisy fans are always complaining about the sales but I think right now it is 1 of the better selling shoujo so I don't really get why people are complaIning about it...

because stuff like suki ii na yo, tonari no atashi and kaibutsu-kun(which are good by the way but don't hold a candle to Daisy) sell like 200-300k. :/

360degrees material and Last Game ^^
I like Last Game but I feel that the serialization drags the story and it is far from how good the mini series is...
So I'm happy with 20,000 :)

Sure no problem. I will post 31 to 50 every week. (^_^)

The reason why fans are complaining cuz compare to other Shoujo manga the sales of Dengeki Daisy is lower.

Anyway, I myself is a fan of this shoujo and praying for it to be animated soon. (^_^)
