All in all, I found Dr. STONE Reboot: Byakuya to be a really good spin-off volume about a valuable character. Byakuya is an incredibly likable character, as are the crew members of the Soyuz. Rei is a cute addition to the wide, wide world of Dr. STONE, and honestly, is the star of this standalone volume. Definitely snag a copy of this if youre any level of Dr. STONE fan.

As I said, fans of Delicious in Dungeon will most likely really be charmed by this series. I also think fans of Sleepy Princess in Demon Castle will feel at home here as well. In fact, Hakabas antics frequently reminded me of Princess Syalis own in the demon keep.

Dont sleep on Heterogenia Linguistico Volume 2. Its a one-of-a-kind story thats got so much heart.Admittedly, Heterogenia Linguistico Volume 2, and the series overall, wont be for a lot of readers.

In the end, Inside Mari Volume 1 is a really strong first volume in a series thats haunting, discomforting, and curious all the same. I have no clue where this story will go, though Im eager to pick up volume 2 and get current with the series. Isao and Maris body switch, as well as the mystery of why it happened, is an intriguing hook that will keep fans of mystery and drama eagerly waiting to see how things unfold.

Fans of the monster girl genre will find a very genuine story between its covers. I highly recommend that fans of series like Burn the Witch, and even The Promised Neverland, pick up this first volume and give Sachis Monstrous Appetite a try. Hopefully, you'll find yourself feeling as stuffed as Sachi is!

Granted, this is a high school romance, so if youre a bit tired of teenage romances, this might not have too much appeal. That being said, I think theres something for every kind of Yuri fan in Strawberry Fields Once Again Volume 1. Give it a try, and see what you think!

Folks who are looking for a nice, short slice-of-life series will find themselves at home with matos hilarious series. Fans of series like Tamamo-chan is a Fox or even Komi Can't Communicate will find similar comedic beats, even if the premises are radically different.

Even if youve never engaged with either of those works, theres definitely something here for every kind of fan, especially those who really vibe with the shoujo genre in general.

The Witcher: Fading Memories is a lush start to a four-issue miniseries focused on Geralt in a world where monsters are almost gone.

Additionally, Witcher fans who are coming from the 2019 Netflix adaptation will still find themselves engrossed in Geralt's world as he tries to figure out where his path is taking him, as well as how to fit into a seemingly hopeless world. Overall, this first issue is worth picking up, whether physically or digitally.
