Despite ranking #1 for most of its volumes in Animate's BL section for like all week, Love Stage!! still does not get a good enough boost to rank. Though three other BL series ranked! That's pretty cool.

Still sucks though. I want Love Stage!! to do well.

Hey, Say I Love You is number 2, nice! Happy to see the last volume of Inu x Boku SS stayed in the top 5 in its 2nd week. Nozaki-kun 1 and 5 still in the top 50, with 2-4 all dropping out.

Hooray for Vagabond and Junjou Romantica 3th and 4th! I am in love with Takehiko Inoue and Nakamura Shungiku both and this makes me extremely happy.

@ Rivailloli: Where's the BL section on Animate? All I found is the popular comics page http://www.animate-onlineshop.jp/products/?category_id=166&order=popular and the only BL there are JR and SL.

Naruto 70 only sold 30,000 copies? That's a misprint surely? I mean, I know the story has gone to pot but 30,000 is insanely low...

It's a pre-sale.

http://www.animatebookstore.com/?store=bl Go to the side, it's ranking is there. They have a top 50 too, just click the second link from the left on the top row under the search bar.

Ah, thanks. That's odd though, I can't find either Junjou Romantica, Sekaiichi Hatsukoi or Super Lovers in that section. I guess they do so well they get counted among mainstream manga.

I'm not sure because the ranking in the general area of the bookstore is different than the general ranking you posted. It may just be that they're separate rankings or something for different sections? If that made sense? There's a general for the tore then a general for the bookstore? Those works are definitely BL, so it'd be weird to not class them as such, but eh. Just a theory I guess.
