A recent Biglobe Anime Ranking poll, asking Japanese fans to name their favorite anime inspired by Shonen Jump manga says something about recency bias, but it always says something about the evolution of what was once the quintessential boys manga magazine. The top spot didn't go to one of "big three" (Naruto, Bleach, One Piece). It went to a series with heaps of cross-over appeal and remarkable female readership.
