The Manga 500, week 51 and Volume 1 (2008) Final.
While there is in fact one week left in the calendar year, for reasons of my own I have chosen to follow an astronomical calendar; so with the day arbitrarily called ’21 December’ coinciding with the solstice (and with a whole lot of errors, missing data, and a late start to begin with) let’s close the book on this first year of the Manga 500 and start fresh next week.
And yes, with the first day of Winter now just passed, the combined Autumn quarterly charts in all their messy, bloated, more-data-than-you-can-stand glory are following as soon as I compile the nine weeks of data that I did collect this Autumn into a single spreadsheet and hit the frappé button.
Volume Two (2009), Week One posts—at least in part—on Monday 29 December. New year, new start (…&just a shade early).

Originally compiled by Matt Blind for the benefit of the Manga Community and posted in the rankings category at RocketBomber.com. Derived from publicly available information; if you feel your intellectual property has been infringed upon then I’d advise you to chill, consult your lawyers again, maybe grow a thicker skin, and then also recognise that you’re getting a free, weekly link directly to your manga offerings [right at the top of the post, in case you missed it] on a blog that specifically caters to fans of the medium. Maybe you should be sending me money, or free manga, as opposed to getting your boxers/panties in a bunch over imaginary copyrights.
All data as posted released back into the public domain (be free, little numbers, go frolic and prosper) with merely a humble request that you link rather than steal, and that any derivative works include an attribution and also remain free to all.

Additional information on sources, methodology, bad habits, wastes of time, trivia, what is and isn’t manga, how alcoholism and OCD directly contribute to the compilation of the rankings, the thaumaturgical formulas used in the spreadsheet, answers to readers’ questions (if you ever get around to actually asking me anything) and other similar esoterica can be found in the Charts’ FAQ.

* a single site check for these sources was counted multiple times; this retains the previously established balance amongst source charts, while saving me substantial chunks of time. It’s a shortcut I’ve used before and will resort to again.
