I wonder how close Blue Box and Himaten are to ending, I'm seeing that the BB color page is for the "conclusion" of what I think is the match? It would be odder if it ended in 2 chapters, so I'm going to assume that. But like, I feel like it can realistically end within 3 chapters of the match itself concluding, so maybe we are wrapping up.

Roku, WOW. That's a good start. 6th last week, I believe? Now 3rd. Nice.

Surprisingly good start for DttF too. Pretty surprised lol.

They sure look like cover designers were having fun
Oh also, Bleach still got the best covers in the WSJ game imo. So so good. No wonder there was a trend a while back to give other series Bleach-like volume covers.

Drawn to the Fire chapter 1 was pretty good so fair enough.

Is this the first time Blue Box has hit bottom 3?

pain continues to visit me with every kagurabachi absence each week


I'm curious to see how these next batch of manga turn out....I'm probably the most curious for Animal Signal it just seems like the most likely to survive based on talent and the minimal premise I have so far.

Love how colorful all the Animal Signal art is and it seems like Tstsui is really good at drawing animals as well. Most exciting debut this year for me, please be good.

SakaDays feels like it’s got a volume left at most.

Haruhara Robinson & Tsutsui Taishi comments for the 1st chapter of Animal Signal:

"I look forward to be working with you. I hope everyone enjoy it"

"This is Tsutsui! I’ll do my best to fully immerse myself in Haruhara's fun animal world and convey it with all my heart & soul!"

Animal sign looks so interesting. It reminnds me of Seton academy.
About hal formula... I think it's too much a niche genre... we will seee

Anyway... roku is 3rd and Drawn to the fire is 5th and Nue returned to the top, while Blue box is in the bottom. What a week!

Roku hitting 3rd on it's second placement is a fantastic start, certainly a very different initial reception to Agravity Boys which hit bottom 5 with its first ranking and almost never left it. I hope it keeps up because I really want to see where the series goes with the curses, if the author will try serious arcs (which they never did in Agravity Boys).

A strong start for Drawn to the Fire as well, if Class 2B ends up with the worst first placement of the trio it'd be rather ironic considering the hype (but well deserved, it's not good at all).
