You're right. I've read somewhere that One piece sold even better than DBZ back when it was THE manga to read. I guess you al have a point. In terms of poupularity, all the other anime together can't touch One piece at the moment and epxecting a bigger boost was not really justified based on the data we have about each franchise's popularity and releases.

It is THE manga to read in Japan... it never lost the first place (well few times due Nana).

I said the difference in popularity in Japan is abyssal.

Thanks, Ethomaz. That was very informative. Quite a few manga surprised me (didn't expect a basketball manga to be above Naruto).
