NOTES

Spoiler

-BEASTARS is showing better legs than Yowamushi, despite the latter being on track to sell more than its 67th volume but less than its 66th. BEASTARS itself is on track to beat Volume 18 but sell less than Volume 19.
-Appare! manages to survive long enough to post a second week on Shoseki. Still a 5% drop from Volume 6, though that might not be too terrible.
-TsugiManga 2020 boost is coming in rather clean for BokuYaba. Volume 4 will be very interesting to see when it comes out, likely next year. Wonder what other manga got boosts.

No, sometimes they give it away whilst other times they do not.

Kawaii Kouhai ni Iwasaretai Volume 2

What in the hell. Suiyou Dou Deshou is only just now releasing it's first volume. I went and checked back, and the manga was axed all the way back in Issue 17 near the end of March. If it took so damn long to release after the writing was already on the wall, then don't expect this to make the Daily Top 500, let alone the weekly one.
Very interesting month. I thought there would be an appearance of either Yowamushi or BEASTARS, but I feel as if things have changed. With Makai no Shuuyaku breaking out to become argubaly the magazine's best first-month seller currently running, perhaps the magazine's going with a Yowamushi/BEASTARS and Iruma/Makai pairing for the near future. Admittedly, the latter is far more likely than the former, but those four sell in a different league than the rest, anyways.

Oh, also adding this to the sales watch under "other manga I like", since I found out it's Akita Shoten:

Is Iruma still going to air in April? I know this issue was probably printed too early to reflect it but I've heard NHK-E only airs one anime a season and To Your Eternity got delayed from October to April so wouldn't that push Iruma back as well?

Pretty sure they air two, they were airing the Iruma rerun and Major 2nd at the same time.

 

[Ihore]

To Your Eternity was going to air on Mondays at 10:50. So its a different slot.

thanks. Saw some people on various other forums talking about Iruma being delayed because of it so thought I'd ask for clarification.

Iruma and Makai getting the cover but no Lead CP. This is odd. I wonder why this is the case. Is this to promote their newest volumes? Is there information pertaining to both series soon?

Interesting that Makai debuts higher but Iruma holds slightly better. Is this an improvement for Shy? Really want to see more growth.
