I have to admit, I am really surprised that Udon decided to release Rose of Versailles volume 3 on schedule, especially when volume 2 got delayed quite a while because of COVID. I thought they'd delay volume 3 as well to space things out.

Man, my wallet's going to hurt once I get my paycheck this Friday. So many manga, but not enough shelf space!

Is Sentai planning to roll out steelbook editions of the full KyoAni oeuvre (or as much as they can license)? Beyond the Boundary is surprising as a stand-alone release – I don’t remember it being all that popular in its time.

In my opinion they will probably try.

Didn't know Bottom Tier Character Tomozaki-Kun vol. 4 was coming out. Have to pick that up. That's easily becoming one of my favorite LNs right now. STRONG Oregairu feels with that one.

Erik from UDON here. To answer your question about ROV 2's delay, it is because we cannot ship the book out from our printer when COVID happens back at the end of January in China. The book got printed, but is stuck in the printer's warehouse until we got cleared to ship them over to the US. In the meantime, we get ROV 3 done and also sent to print, and have everything ready to go too, so eventually, ROV 2 & 3 got shipped at the same time when things are rolling again. Thus, only ROV 2 got delayed and not 3.

Thank you once again for your support!! Hope you enjoyed the books!
