Commentary: 

• The first Berserk Deluxe volume hops into the top spot this week, displacing The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse. Is this just a one-off quirk, or is The Boy losing some of its muscle?
• The top debut this week is an upcoming volume of the manga series Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter. It's joined later on down the chart by fellow Seven Seas manga Skeleton Knight in Another World.
• Plenty of Kindle single issues on the chart this week, including several pre-orders for various Boom! titles, making me think that subscription pre-orders may be playing a part in chart placement.
• The first volume of Heartstopper debuts on the chart this week for the first time (though the third volume charted a few months ago...), with demand no doubt driven by the Netflix series debuting next week. Similarly, the Anime series of Spy x Family debuts this weekend on Crunchyroll, driving up interes in that manga.  
• Rounding out this week's debuts is the collection of Ram V & Filipe Andrade's The Many Deaths of Laila Starr. 
• This weeks chart has spots for thirty manga titles (same as last week) and ten Kindle single issues (down two from last week).
• Sorry this chart is being posted so late, but rest assured the snapshot is from the morning on the 15th as per the timestamp.
