And people still claim Naruto is better.

One Piece is the king of manga

Basically, One Piece unsurprisingly keeps its distance towards all others.

Naruto keeps its second place nonetheless unsurprisingly but still OP sells like 6 times more. The distance between Naruto and others keeps decreasing though. This is dangerous. It's vice-champion place is in quite a peril. Especially if FT's level keeps its lineant increase.

Blue Exorcist really increased heavily. The Jump was already seen in the last report but a 3rd place is definitely convincing. Too bad, it's only a monthly release otherwise, the popularity increased through the anime and its catchy story definitely could have made it a more serious contender to Naruto atleast.

My favorite part remains the duel between Bleach and Fairy Tail. While in every terms, the progress was inverse for these two manga (Bleach keep going downhill and FT keeps getting better...), I was damn happy to see FT getting the upper hand in the last sales.

And even more happy that this progress was very positive. I'm repeating it; Bleach is over-stretching its story way too much. Kubo should stop thinking of money just because Bleach became a successful franchise. It's time that the story stops.

Congrats to a very great 4th place to Hiro. Very happy especially because Hiro's trolling chapters were getting really good recently and this is deserving.

Wow! One piece is in a league of its own, naruto is in danger if it doesn´t go up soon.
Bleach sucks ass and Kubo should just quit, dammit the fans are telling you to quit, they feel sorry for your manga, don´t let us remember this manga as any worse then it already is!
Ao no exorsist seems to be a good series for it to have more sales then fairy tail, naruto is in a pinch, i hope it keeps its 2nd spot.

What do you think guys? Is Ao no exorcist worth getting into?

Wow One Piece smashed it. I recently just started watching OP, so hopefully I won't be disappointed :) seems alright at the moment though.

It's always been like this.
For the past few years, One Piece has had more sales than the 2nd to 5th place combined. (Atleast).

Last year or something, it had more sales than top 8 combined.
