Wow, where!?

Well, they also said something about being "enthused". It should have been enthusiastic.

I think thier will always been room for classics such as Superman and spiderman. They won't be going any where any time soon. However, they will have to learn to live with the manga in the comic book world.

^__^ Yay for the RK manga! I read an article about manga in one of my mom's magazines not too long ago as well. It was all about shojo manga.
Heehee...before I discovered Kenshin I was a total literature dork.
Me: Psh. You won't catch me reading no comic books!
Two months later: Must buy next Mars manga!

The success of mangas is surprising since they mainly refer to Japanese culture and are created for Japanese readers.

=o=/ They didn't mention Sakura Kinoshita either. *hands Ingemar another $5 before her head explodes again*

:waah!:

scary! Notice they are mention yugioh, kenshin, pokemon, all that overly known stuff. Glad they mentioned fruits baskets though. Would be cool if they mentioned other stuff better than pokemon and yugioh. I mean, come on! Nobody buys pokemon and yugioh manga!

I do! Yugioh is one of Viz's most popular series now. If no one was buying it then I don't think they would have switched to releasing one volume of the manga every month like they are doing now. But it's true about pokemon :(. The sales were low so Viz cancelled both Pokemon Special and Magical Pokemon Journey! *evily glares at them* DIE Viz DIE!!! *hugs importaded Pokemon Special graphic novels*
