1. Naruto Vol.45
2. Fruits Basket Vol.23
3. NEGIMA! Magister Negi Magi Vol.23
4. The Dark-Hunters Vol.1
5. Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle Vol.22
6. Junjou Romantica Vol.10
7. Kitchen Princess Vol. 10
8. Naruto Vol.43
9. Bleach Vol.27
10. Captive Hearts Vol.5

As usual, Naruto is on the list. BUT, seeing Junjou Romantica is a huge surprise. Also Captive Hearts and Kitchen Princess also seem to be unexpected on the list. This list was released July 17, 2009.

Because I find it funny, here’s the NY Times’ definition of Junjou:

Our manga list had an amazing amount of turn over this week, adding five new titles including “Jungo Romantica” Vol. 10, about a gay relationship. This seems to be an example of “shonen-ai,” a genre of manga aimed at teenage girls who enjoy gay romances.

lol. They thinks it’s “shonen-ai.”
