In a way, the january volume covers are kinda like Hima-ten itself. Everyone puts forth their absolute best effort, only for Kanna to blow them all out of the water by simply taking her shirt off.

The fact that Togo Goto's author avatar is exactly the same as the egg in Gonron Egg throw me off. I really thought it was the Gonron Egg author comment at the end LOL

While the Hertz position is the most surprising, there’s a couple other surprises in here, like Nue beating a lot of it’s older siblings like Sakamoto, Akane, Ruri, Black Clover, and even Witch Watch beating Sakamoto and Black Clover. Not to mention the 1-y trio (Kiyoshi/Hima/Shinobi) beating some older ones like Elusam and Akane. Again, not that this is any critical metric, but still interesting to see.

I spoiler tagged all my salt this week and didn't elaborate further. Things are bad on JP twitter though, this break will be the worst. Maybe I should try to enjoy the holidays. lol

Going off of last volume sales Akane and Hima’s 4-week were about 40k and 15k respectively. Given that this Hima volume is almost guaranteed to sell more, it’s very possible we’re looking at Hertz’s first volume being at least 20k, if not close to 30k, which would be a pretty great debut compared to how most releases have gone the past few years. Arguably comparable to Ichi if you account for the genre diff between action-fantasy and rom-com, and pre-orders seem to forshadow it might also have a stocking issue similar to Ichi’s first volume.

Okay, maybe the Ichi parallel is a stretch, but it’s looking to be the best volume 1 since Ichi, barring Modulo’s inevitable explosion. and potentially might outpace all the 2023 series’ start besides Bachi.
