67 Volumes is ridiculous. Detective Conan is really being dragged out for a long time... But I guess that's the norm for Sunday series. Inuyasha was 56 volumes, and that's just off the top of my head.

Good to see that the new volume of Negima is number 3 on the charts.

Now if only I could get a copy of that drama CD

Crying or Very sad Aww man, Skip Beat needs to slow down or something. I'm never going to catch up in collecting it at this rate, even if a chapter only comes out every two weeks or so.

... Wait no, I take it back. If Skip Beat's updates go any slower I make go crazy in waiting for the next chapter.

Yay for Zettai Karen Children ! Laughing
... though for a shonen manga with good comedy, nice action scenes, great, no... gorgeous art , a bit (Razz ) of fan-service and a 51 eps long anime just that aired on Tv Tokyo 70~80K copies in the first week is not that much .
If only Shiina tuned down the lolicon, began the "junior high" arc a bit sooner instead of waiting 15 volumes , used the current art style since the beginning and the anime didn't ruined everything with that first episode (search in ANN or the web for the reactions to that ep Mad ) ZKC would be a hit, even outside japan and on the web. Not huge, but something rilevant.


oh, and Negima moved about 180K (140 + 40) this time .

The fast it goes, the higher the chances we have for a second season! Glad to see that it sells quite well.

Indeed. It's absolutely crazy imo. I'm happy Naruto is into its final arc, at the very least.

The fact that both Alive and Negima! are up there on the chart this time makes me so happy!

Last I heard. I'm strictly following it legally, so the last word I remember atm about it nearing its end was in vol. 43, the Sasuke vs. Itachi battle.

btw, if you've read past the official tankoban release, if you could be so kind as to not divulge spoilers, I would very much appreciate it. Anime catgrin

Eh, it's not just Sunday, Jump has pretty much the same tradition and may even be a worse. The big difference is that we actually do get Detective Conan and Inu Yasha while Kochikame and JoJo are barely/not available in English.
