Here, in alphabetical order and without any real comment, are ten series that continued through 2008 that I really enjoyed:
Okay, so it looks an awful lot like what last year’s list would have been, but some good books just stay good, you know?

I like the way you’ve organized your lists. That way, you get to include lots more!

Your list looks exactly like my list except I’d swap Gon (I’m so not the target audience for this book) with Ouran High School Host Club, and Kitchen Princess (how have I managed to not read this yet?) for Fullmetal Alchemist. They’re guilty pleasures, but I love them so.

Oh, I’m a big fan of Fullmetal. It would probably have been #11 on the list; I don’t think 2008 was its best year, though. And sometime I really need to buckle down and check out Ouran. Maybe there will be a VizBig edition.

I need to read more of Nana and Fruits Basket to get a better fele for them.

I haven’t read Kitchen Princess yet, either, but since it recently finished, I’ll probably wait until the final volume (10) comes out so I can read it in a big chunk.
