As with the anime, there's plenty going on with Re:Zero in print. There's Daichi Matsuse's Truth of Zero manga adaptation in Comic Alive. There's Makoto Fūgetsu's adaptation of the series in Big Gangan. And, maybe the real noteworthly release of the month, series author Tappei Nagatsuki is doing new short stories, with one focusing on memorable villain Elsa Granhirte, "The Bowel Hunter."
