I knew the west would completely eat up Akame ga Kill... that's nice I guess.

Its also nice to see Assassination Classroom and Noragami as well.

Been wanting to check out Noragami for a while now.

Still can't really decide whether to try out assassination classroom.

Noragami was the best anime in Winter 2014 imo... It was a good shounen series with good comedy, character interaction and development. Although it had a lack luster final villain, and still had many questions left unanswered... basically a "Read the manga type ending."

Assassination Classroom is just pure fun... Koro-sensei basically steals the show but the premise may get repetitive overtime.

Congratulations for Akame ga Kill reaching the No. 1 slot! Smile
Here's hoping that many that are reading it will give the anime show a try (if it gets picked up).

I'm gonna wait and find out how the manga of Akame ga KILL ends...enjoyed the anime, but the ending is something that doesn't have me wanting to rewatch the series. And, if the manga ends in a similar fashion, wouldn't want to reread it.

Happy to see Noragami 1 in the top 10 again. Only 2 volumes are out, but have enjoyed it slightly more than the anime...and I loved the anime. Laughing

Oh, really? Had no idea. I pre-order all my stuff ahead of time, so I forget when stuff gets released...it just arrives at my house. Laughing

Akame is doing pretty well here, here's hoping Toonami airs the anime (we need some sentai filmworks shows on their)

Nice to see Akame ga Kill is on the list, a welcomed addition to the roster.

@theNightster

There is no English version of Akame ga Kill yet; thus, Toonami can't air it.
