Anime Herald Magazine is getting a second issue.
So I just checked our sales - we're at 289 copies sold.
We need 11 more to reach 300, which is our internal threshold to go ahead and start planning Issue #2 - let's do this!
Please help. Please share. Please. I want to be safe and not so financially fucked I donβt know how Iβm gonna afford my medicine on top of food.

Streaming licenses are fairly short, all considered, and there's a chance that a show you love will never come back once it gets yanked
