Fans are in love with Keep Your Hands off Eizouken!, this season's series about a trio of high school girls striving to make their own anime. As a result, the manga is getting more love, too!

The manga series, written by Sumito Owara, has been running in Monthly Big Comic Spirits since summer of 2016. Volume 5 is out in Japan starting today, and the new release has put cumulative sales of the series over 500,000 books.

Sales of the manga have increased since the anime began its run on NHK this month, with emergency reprints even being necessary.

Expect the popularity to continue, as the Eizouken is preparing to storm the world of live-action film later this year.
