I don't really think Naruto is at the top.

Realistically, I believe Dragonball is waay up there, true, they don't have any new
episodes, but that is one of the animes that made a difference and there's still quite a lot
of loyalists out there.. And Pokemon, especially with their TCG. And also, I'm pretty sure
Bleach is still more prevalent than Naruto. You should see the number of people
torrenting Bleach episodes. @_@

I don't think Naruto has been out long enough to be Number 1 all time.

Number 10: Daa! Daa! Daa! (UFO Baby) (Anime)

Number 11: Super Gals! Kotobuki Ran (Anime)


:blink: :blink: Never in my life heard of this 2 anime... and they rank both at 10 and 11...

Number 1: Inuyasha (Anime)

I doubt that.... It maybe at a high position but not number 1... definitely not...

And what's with Hunter X Hunter with "The Incredible" picture on it :blink:

I don't think I will believe in the webbie ranking... + they don't even have Bleach nor Naruto in it... Bleach and Naruto are like going crazy in every fansub webbie...

In my opinion... the top 20 anime in the world should at least include...

Gundam (it's a must as I consider this is one of the revolution in anime/manga industry)
Dragon Ball (another revolution of anime/manga industry)
Bleach
Naruto
One Piece (maybe I put OP here because I'm a huge fan... forgive me but I can't resist it :P)
Cowboy Beebop (I never watch this but I believe a lot of people from all the world aware the presence of this anime)

Look in Wikipedia for animeand manga ... You will get some idea about the ranking...

Anime-Source Has a ranking page, and a lot of people visit the site. It had different types of ranking, by hits, by rating, by genre, etc.

Number 1: Inuyasha (Anime)
For this anime make the #1 is not out of the sky.
The Auther of this comic is very well know
Her name is Rumiko Takahashi, she had been drawing for atlease 20 years.


here is the link of info http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Dojo/7739/rumiko.html

Rumiko Takahashi was born in 1957 in Niigata, Japan. She had a deep love for manga her entire life, and when she attended Niigata Chuo High School she was the founder of the school's manga appreciation society. In her junior year of high school she had decided to make manga her profession and made her debut two years later with the story Katte Na Yatsura (Overbearing People) in the magazine that she would call home for the rest of her career, Shonen Sunday. She studied comics at a Japanese college with Kazuo Koike, the author of Crying Freeman and also worked as an assistant to Kazuo Umezu of Makoto-chan.

In 1978 Urusei Yatsura was released, which ran until 1987. Urusei Yatsura is the story of a young man named Ataru Moroboshi that is chosen to play a game of tag with an alien Oni named Lum with the fate of the world at stake. Ataru manages to win, but inadvertently asks Lum to marry him in the process.

Following Urusei Yatsura was another very successful manga, Maison Ikkoku. Maison Ikkoku was written with a young adult audience in mind, and was therefore puplished in Big Comic Spirits, rather than Shonen Sunday. This series began in 1982 and ran parallel to Urusei Yatsura. Maison Ikkoku focuses on a young student, Yusaku Godai, who has fallen for his apartment mangager, Kyoko Otonashi while trying to fend her other suitor, Shun Mitaka a man that can offer everything Godai can not.

1987 was a big year in Takahashi's career because it saw the beginning and ending of her three most well known stories. Urusei Yatsura and Maison Ikkoku both bid their final farewells after 34 volumes and 15 volumes respectively. Both series did very well and saw Takahashi's writing and artistic abilities improve over the years.

As both series wrapped Takahashi began work on Ranma 1/2 a series about a teenaged martial artist named Ranma Saotome that has become cursed and transforms into a girl whenever he is splashed with cold water. Ranma 1/2 ran the longest of all of her series, 38 volumes, and came to an end early in 1996.

As she had previously done, Takahashi quickly began her next series, Inu-Yasha Sengoku Otogi Zoushi (Inu-Yasha A Feudal Fairytale) only a few months after the end of Ranma 1/2. The story focuses on a young girl named Kagome Higurashi who falls down a well and ends up in feudal Japan. There she meets a half-demon half-human named Inu-Yasha and they begin a quest for pieces of the missing Shikon Jewel.

Takahashi has also had quite a few short stories over the years such as One or W, Maris the Chojo, and Firetripper (which have been collected in Rumic World and Rumic Theater) along with the more lengthy short works of the Mermaid Saga which deals with elements of immortality and One-Pound Gospel a love story focusing on a Catholic nun and a young boxer.

Shonen Sunday, the manga magazine of which Ms. Takahashi's work is almost exclusively featured, usually includes comments from the author each week. Ms. Takahashi often talks about her favorite baseball team (the Hanshin Tigers), discusses her favorite music group (Shazna), or recounts childhood memories.

Over Takahashi's 20+ year career she has been considered the first major female to do work on boys comics, and has earned the title "The Princess of Manga". She won the Shogakukan sponsered "New Comic Artist Award" in 1978 and won the 1994 Inkpot Award in America.
