Good to see Saint Young Men doing so well, its definitely one of the better manga serializations geared towards humor. On the surface, it doesn't necessarily seem like a title the majority of the manga reading populous would indulge wholeheartedly, though the title's premise seems to be the essential selling point of the series as a whole; as in, the premise at face value does seem intriguing and thought provoking.

There may very well be a sense of ambiguity among the comedic puns set throughout this title that inevitably becomes obscure in correlation to its religious aspect and implication. Nonetheless Saint Young Men remains wonderfully enticing, so much so; that I try to invest as much time in said series as I can.

I was worried I wasn't on an anime forum until this post.

Also, I oddly have never cared for Gintama, despite the fact that it pretty much is the perfect manga for me.

Gintama, Beelzebub, and Jojo getting in the top 10, with Sket Dance at 11?

I must be in heaven.

WOOT! New prince of tennis made 25!

Dragon Ball Z has some really violent scene, I don't think it's aimed to the same public as Pokemon. But I wouldn't say it's a seinen though.

You like Bleach, One Piece, Digimon, Pokémon, Prince of Tennis, Cardcaptors Sakura, Dragon Ball Z, Inuyasha, and Tenchi, all aimed at the same target audience of Naruto. I'm sorry don't complain about kids, when you like Digimon.

As for the list no big surprises.

Hell yeah, Naruto first!

Nov 12, 2009 10:08 AM by HooHiraiBunny

Gintama and Bakuman ftw!!!

Nov 12, 2009 9:36 AM by yarvenclog

Heh, idk how Naruto got back to the top but eh. Recent chapters have been doing better.

I love the fact JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is 100+ volumes long and it's still getting into top5 of best selling titles.
