SEAN: It’s May, but the winds are blowing here like it’s March. What manga is blowing our way? Airship debuts The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes (Natsu e no Tonneru, Sayonara no Deguchi), the latest in a long line of “kind of depressing romance novels with a sci-fi bent” light novels that have been out here lately. For once it’s not based on a film, though one is coming soon. ASH: I’ll admit, it’s a subgenre I frequently enjoy. SEAN: Also in print: Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation 16 and Reincarnated as a Sword 10. We also get early digital volumes of Adachi and Shimamura 9 and She Professed Herself Pupil of the Wise Man 4. From Cross Infinite World we get The Dragon’s Soulmate is a Mushroom Princess!...
