Oricon Comic Ranking Summary

3rd place: Playing Death Games to Put Food on the Table Vol. 10

Yuki’s ninety-third game, “Jamboree Ship,” is the largest event ever run by the organizers, set aboard a cruise ship and inviting nearly every active player. Struggling with an unfamiliar body, Yuki finds herself facing the members of her longtime enemy group, Mikkai, as well as the least welcome pair imaginable: Airi and Maguma. Surrounded by more than three hundred enemies, Yuki confronts the death game with a heart gone frighteningly cold.

2nd place: Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Vol. 45

With Philore, the “Saint” of the Divine Dragon Church, joining the royal selection as a new candidate, events begin to accelerate in earnest. Subaru Natsuki, trying to uncover her true intentions, witnesses Crusch Karsten turn her blade on a major figure of the kingdom. Unable to abandon Crusch as she is branded a traitor, Subaru follows her, only to be accused of rebellion himself. Soon, Emilia, their companions, and the Kingdom of Lugnica are drawn into a sinister upheaval.
