16. Kajiya de Hajimeru Isekai Slow Life Vol. 7 (NEW)
by (Author) Tamamaru and (Illustration) Kinta
Volume Information
Release Date: December 9, 2022
Days of Sales: 3
Price: 1,300 yen
Publisher: KADOKAWA
Estimated number of copies sold: 3,350
Link (JPN): Vol. 7

Analysis
Kajiya de Hajimeru Isekai Slow Life was last seen with Volumes 5 and 6 at 8,608 copies and 6,833 copies sold in their first 5 days and 7 days. Because the 7th volume had produced quite a low average per day outcome, it would be hard for the volume to overtake the past two volumes even if it were to go 2 to 4 days longer.
Additional Comments
A Manga adaptation of the Light Novel by artist Tamamaru is also available through Dengeki Comic Regulus of which several of its chapters are available for free right here in Japanese.
