What's so good about Bleach... It sucks now...and almost all the fans agree but still reads if because they've come this far reading it...

I'm surprised to see that something like Death Note isn't on the list since that's really popular in the US I think?
Glad xxxholic is up there though.

If someone organized a (large) group of people to purchase a specific book during a specific week, it would be interesting to see what sort of effect that would have on the rankings.
I agree. If one could get enough cooperation they could really shift the market in their favor. That would be pretty cool.
