I knew I should have went for ranked poll
Can you do ranked piecharts?
If not I’m sending a Pull Request immediately.
Hm seems like we have a perfect tie, どうしようかなぁ ![]()
I guess the slowest pace should win.
I guess so! I’ll keep the poll open until next Friday.
I think if half at present are asking for a slower pace we should just go back to one chapter a week. The biggest con of reading quicker is that we might lose active readers - which is a shame this deep into a manga. Plus, the less active readers the more the conversation dries up.
Not sure about the week break though. I guess similar applies - if a good chunk of the readership wants the week break then we should go with that to keep the group together. Perhaps if we are back on one chapter a week people won’t feel the need for a break again at the end of volume 10.
Yes I think it makes sense to not make a break week if we go one chapter per week again. But we have left some people behind already so I understand that they want to catch up.
I just think poll results are so hard to read. Now the tie is broken, with the fastest pace being ahead, but still, if almost half of the people want a slower pace, probably still makes sense to go for that.
There will be a week break before starting Volume 10 ![]()
Still unsure about the pace but I guess we are going back to 1 chapter a week, to include as many people as possible, or let me know if I’m reading that wrong!
Maybe I’ll join the club when you all get to volume 13. I haven’t read the series in a while. I even own volume 13 already, but haven’t touched it.
I’ll see if I’m able to wait an extra week, now the plot is moving forward more!
The main reason I potentially will is that I’m falling behind on lots of other things currently.
That would be fun
are you following the thread or do you want me to ping you when we get there?
I’m following the thread, so all good. Thanks!
I have too many bookclubs going on, so 2 chapters a week made me rush the reading a bit more than I would’ve liked, I think I still prefer the 1 chapter a week.
I’m not in a particular hurry to reach the latest volume, and if it often goes into hiatus I honestly prefer not having as much of a window between releases (cause I end up forgetting everything by the time the next volume is out lol)
Hadn’t noticed it had gone on hiatus but indeed, no new volume in a year. Not too strange yet, it looks like the usual pace was 1/2 volumes a year, could be a single volume for 2025: とんがり帽子のアトリエ#書誌情報 on wiki
And just after I type that, I notice on the English wikipedia page that volume 14 is due to come out April 23, 2025 ![]()
It’s also this year that the anime is set to premiere.
@fyrember @Akashelia I believe volume 14 is the first volume to take this long, and I assume it’s due to the mangaka taking time for the anime. That said, even when it’s releasing consistently it still takes around 7 months between volumes on average. So catching up and waiting is inevitable.
Is that a challenge? Maybe I’ll have a poll to see if we should go 1 chapter per month, to never have to wait for a new volume ![]()
If the new releases are that slow anyway, I’ll definitely wait until the next really good sale to get volume 10.
Can I suggest you also buy volume 11 when that happens?? ![]()
