i don't think Blue Exorcist, Bakuman, naruto, bleach, FMA are bad. Other than One piece, Don't know what else out there that are better. Viz has all the top manga, nobody can beat them.

I will let you name a few manga that are better.

This is the list of manga that are keeping Viz Media alive. Without them, 3/4 of the manga industry would be gone.

You, good sir, are an idiot.

Now, moving on. I was completely taken aback by Bakuman vol. 6. I've been on the fence about whether I would buy it or not because some of the plot devices and their accompanying characters just drove me up a wall. I was tremendously surprised to see much of those woes addressed in this one vol. and can say that if nothing else, I'll surely own vol. 6.

Yes, because nothing says healthy manga sales like three manga getting on the list with 3 in 1 editions, with Fullmetal Alchemist 3 in 1 being on the list for 3 weeks.
