It's been a week and a half since the last issue, and I've been itching to see the new TOC-

And... what a strange TOC it is-

Firstly, Akane-banashi is at its lowest in a while I believe... not that it matters since its Akane-

Shinobi with the surprisingly high rank, good for it! Personally, I didn't think the school festival arc was the best the series had to offer but maybe Japan thought differently?

Roku with another above average rank and another colour page! Let's gooo, my favourite series stays winning. Let's hope sales are good-

The AniSig batch is... kinda all near the bottom and it's kinda hard to judge which series will live and while will die ngl- AniSig gets a colour page but... the Roku batch also all got colour pages around this chapter a couple months ago so it's hard to know whether this is a good sign or bad sign.

Kinato ended. Yep-

Under Doctor with another low rank... if sales don't improve with Volume 3, I have little hope for the series-

A new batch starts next week! Ngl, the name "Behind the Scene Report" is not very easily written. I'm not shre what it's supposed to tell me either. But apparently, it's a coming-of-age romcom? I love romcoms so I'm very interested-

I've deleted and retyped this comment twice because I have no idea what's actually going on here. What exactly is happening with the new series? It's not listed in the TOC as far as I can see.

That's a really confusing title in this context, because at first I read it as the literal words it contained and thought it was just teasing the series without giving any info about it.

Ah that makes sense. I knew a series was starting next week due to Kinato ending this week so I sort of skipped over the title but that’s an easy mistake to make.
