Anxiously, after who knew how long, Cangyang Zhiyi watched the people ahead of him leave with carefully wrapped weekly magazines in hand.
They all seemed to be buying the shoujo-oriented Hana to Yume rather than Weekly Shonen.
That only made him more worried. After waiting in line for so long, what if he could not buy one when his turn came?
Normally, weren't there more people buying Weekly Shonen?
Before this, he had felt a little embarrassed about buying a shoujo-oriented manga magazine like Hana to Yume as a man.
But seeing so many other men buying it, he no longer felt much of anything.
Cangyang Zhiyi was not the only one. Many others in line were deeply worried as well, especially when they noticed some people buying several copies at once. That immediately stirred dissatisfaction among those still waiting.
Hana to Yume was nothing like Weekly Shonen. Many bookstores did not stock many copies. If the people ahead bought them all, what were those behind supposed to do?
Had they lined up for so long for nothing?
The bookstore owner seemed to notice the crowd's dissatisfaction and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Don't worry, everyone. There are still plenty of Hana to Yume magazines in the store. I stocked a lot! Everyone will be able to buy one."
The owner's face broke into a grin. Last time, he had ordered too few copies of the magazine serializing Stars's manga and missed out on quite a bit of revenue.
This time, he had learned his lesson. Once he noticed that it was serializing Stars's manga and that it had become incredibly popular online, he had directly ordered several thousand copies.
Still, he had been a little worried when making that decision.
If they did not sell, he would be stuck with them.
