Analysis
Although there are no direct comparisons to “Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go de Dereru Tonari no Aalya-san Volume 6,” the volume’s sales in its first two days may have surpassed the sales of Volume 2, 4, and 4.5 in their first three days. If the volume continues to sell at an average rate of 5,000 copies per day or more, it may produce similar or even greater sales than Volume 3 and 5 in their first four and five days, respectively.
Additional Comments
The series has a Manga adaptation by artist Saho Tanamachi, serialized in Kodansha’s Magazine pocket. Some of its chapters can be read for free in Japanese on the magazine’s website. Additionally, a TV Anime adaptation of the series has been announced, but its broadcast date has not yet been confirmed.

Volume Information
Release Date: March 29, 2023
Days of Sales: 5
Price: 660 yen
Publisher: KADOKAWA
Estimated number of copies sold: 14,207
Link (JPN): Vol. 33

Analysis
Compared to the sales of Volume 22, “Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu Volume 33” has sold 42.85% fewer copies. Additionally, it has sold less than Volumes 23 to 27, all of which had similar sales figures after 4 or 3 days of sales. If Volume 33 had been sold for fewer days, its sales would have been lower than Volumes 28 to 31. However, the number of copies sold is still relatively stable when compared to Volume 32’s sales of 9,632 copies in its first 3 days. It’s worth noting that as of Quarter 3 of FY2023, “Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu” is ranked 6th among KADOKAWA’s best publishing titles. It’s important to always keep in mind that Oricon may not capture the full sales potential of a given series.
