Naruto Vol. 29 Hits USA Today Chart

imageThe 29th volume of Masashi Kishimoto's worldwide manga hit Naruto debuted on USA Today's bookselling chart at #57 this week. I think this should end all discussion over whether or not last year's crush of Naruto books under the "Naruto Nation" umbrella will have a negative effect on sales; any such sales discussion now will likely focus on the merits of the current volumes and the longevity of the series. Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid books continue to push into phenomenon status higher up in those same charts.
