Oh awesome, Assassination Classroom at top 5. Curious to see how the anime adaptation will affect this later this month.

I'd like to get into Assassination Classroom. I might read the manga simultaneously with the anime when it starts.

Still a shame that Titan continues to take up spots.

Kingdom Hearts II selling well. I guess they are looking forward to Kingdom Hearts 3 coming out late this year.

Somebody tell these buyers that AOT becomes a political series later on, and to run for their lives while they can.

It doesn't matter if KH or other manga/light novels outsold SnK or not. vol.1 is 81 weeks and there's always SnK on this list every week. Also, I don't think ranks are important here. I think its how long the manga/light novel is on this list every week

Hmmm....I'm surprised KH is still so popular. Other than that, can't wait for Assassination Classroom's adaptation.

I gotta feeling Naruto will stay up there for awhile, since it ended.

I love how everyone is called 'hipsters' just because they don't like SnK. OK.

If it was any other manga, I'm sure it would be bashed as well. Just watch: once Naruto gets up there for a few weeks, people will be saying, "Ugh, god, Naruto needs to get off the list already"

Just because someone doesn't like a mainstream show/book, doesn't make them a hipster, nor do they deserve hate for not liking it. Damn.

Fanboys are as annoying as haters. Can't deny that. However I think haters aren't as bad. They usually don't shank you when you say their favorite show doesn't appeal to them.

How popular it has become to bash SnK here. I agree, it isn't second coming of Christ but come on, its better, than 80% manga out there (worse shonens, romcoms, harems) Yet somehow, it gets more rage than Infinite Stratos or Love Live which sell DVD and other sh_t like madmen. I am not really a fanboy of SnK, but this continous hipstery circlejerk of hatred is getting on my nerves.

And AoT isn't number one anymore, really happy for Assassination classroom ;)
What is the most cowardly and shameful thing in human conduct? It's when people with power and people who flatter them hide in safe places and extol war, force patriotism and self-sacrifice on others, then send them to the battlefield to die. For the sake of peace in the universe, before we continue this fruitless war with the Empire, mustn't we first start by exterminating such evil parasites? - Yang Wenli

Nice to see He's My Only Vampire make the list; quite impressive for a shoujo without an anime. Also nice to see Assassination Classroom #1s continued success.

I think Kingdom Hearts II's #1 status is because this is the first volume that hadn't been released in English yet? Although I may be wrong.

Nice work Spice & Wolf.
Btw since when did these topics became so hostile ?
Sure there were always some tension between the fans of AOT and the ones that wanted it off the list, but these last weeks it feels stronger.

Anyway, anime boost incoming for Ass Clasd.

Click on the news link, Aot vol 01 has made 81 appearences on the NY Times list so far.
So while i cant say for sure that it made 81 appearances in a row its still a number you can take home with ya.

No Food Wars again. Hoping it makes the list next month when the new volume is released, and the anime is gonna start soon too, so that should be a boost. o/

It's actually not any different than any other week. People/fans are just commenting: "lol AoT haters u mad" a lot more than usual. I love AoT but I do think there are other series more deserving of the spots it takes up.

I don't see how SnK is any more or less deserving than any other manga that might appear on the list. It keeps ranking because people keep buying it every week. It's a simple as that.

Must mean most of his volumes aren't sub-par enough to reach the list ;D
