I am so glad that Daiya has been constantly charting for Act 2 every time a new volume is released. This is what happens when the focus is on Eijun though I'm not particularly enjoying the current arc, hoping it gets resolved soon.

Also, that SNK volume is really good too so very much deserved. <3

Looks like Takagi-san's sales went up because of the anime adaptation.
Those who can't do what they have to when the time comes for action will find their presence fading in our classroom. An assassin who neglects to sharpen his blade is no assassin at all. He's just a boastful brat swinging around a rusty sword.

Arifureta/Death March sales are very high, if they have a big anime boost they could get at Konosuba/ReZero sales level. And Isekai Smartphone is selling twice as much as before the adaptation.

Sales are only from 4-25 December, so no anime boost for now.

A novel which is written to be a novel (as opposed to novelisations) will always be (far) better than a manga adaptation of said novel. That should go without saying.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

I've never read a Japanese novel so I wouldn't know.
