CATDOLL: The cumulative circulation of the comic "Azure Blue" has exceeded 650,000

The manga "GRANDBLUE" (GRANDBLUE), which was serialized in the 42nd issue of the monthly magazine "Good! Afternoon" published on April 7, 2014, is written by Kenji Inoue and Kimioka Yoshioka. Recently, good news came that the cumulative circulation of the manga has exceeded 650,000, but we still need to wait patiently for news about the animation.

"Azure no Mare" is the first original manga written by Japanese light novelist Kenji Inoue after "Baka and Test: Summon the Beasts". He is responsible for the original script of the manga, and Yoshioka Kimitake is in charge of the painting. The theme of the story is "diving", but the manga mainly depicts the free and easy college life of a group of young men, such as drinking, club activities, socializing, etc., and adds various comedy elements and hilarious scenes.

To put it simply, it is the college version of "Baka and Test - Summon the Beasts". This work has accumulated considerable popularity. In various senses, it covers both comedy and welfare. It is a rare masterpiece in recent years. It has the potential to be adapted into an animation, but due to the current progress of the manga (there are only 22 chapters now...), unless the author works very hard, it is basically hopeless to be adapted into an animation within 1-2 years.
