Guess that's true.. Though Arakawa Under the Bridge I end up forgetting easily, so I call it the latter, though I had no idea that it was a popular manga. Sue me.
But Midori was one of those that had a spike of popularity the first run (in japan obviously), then died down later on. Western popularity is what I meant too. Also, I don't read manga that much, so I don't know about the anime I watch and where it came from.
I guess the reason why most anime are not very popular in the west is due to the very diffrent tastes in culture. For Example: Suicide is legal in japan as Seppoku, but it's illegal in most other countries. But when it comes to animation, it's an entirely diffrent beast.
And Battle Spirits was one anime I watched up to Ep.30, but I didin't tell anyone about it's existance until now because of it's genre that most of us won't agree upon.
