Yu-Gi-Oh! GX confirmed for better than Madoka.

More like fanboys buying it for the card, then chucking the book.

I'd have to disagree, because at least where I'm from the fanboys just take the card out of the book at the store and don't buy the book.

And, imo the madoka manga is trash. Don't get me wrong, the anime was amazing.

GX was a decent series, not very impressed with vol 9, you can tell they didn't give him much time to finish up. And, obviously a YGO manga is gonna be more popular in America than a Magical girl manga...

Yes, the ending of GX was very rushed. The anime was tons better, anyway.

Kind of true for the entire franchise, but the manga can be cool reads at times.

Yea, don't get me wrong, I loved the GX manga up until the introduced Aster and his gang of American DA students.

I did like Reggie and David, but that final arc was pretty lame and way too rushed.

But, the rest was great!
