Naruto: Hot!

Posted on August 30, 2006 by Brigid Alverson

The latest USA Today Booklist is up, and Naruto rises from 33 to 21 this week, nudging just a bit closer to that top ten and beating out Fruits Basket, which peaked at number 24. Speaking of Furuba, it’s hanging in for its fourth week on the chart but slips from 59 to 110. And what’s this? Volume 7 of Death Note at number 114. Apparently the manga-pimping is starting to pay off. Keep it up, Team Comix!
