Yuhiro Tsujitsugu announced on X that Snowball Earth has passed 1 million copies in circulation and is beginning its final arc, with a celebratory illustration. The series launched in Shogakukan's Monthly Spirits in 2021; the 12th compiled volume arrives September 30, Viz Media publishes the 10th English volume December 15, and the anime's second season is coming.
Tsujitsugu drew a celebration illustration for the circulation milestone. The manga has run in Shogakukan's Monthly Spirits since 2021, and volume 12 lands on September 30. On the English side, Viz Media releases volume 10 on December 15, meaning the print editions sit well behind the Japanese run with the story now heading into its final arc. The anime premiered April 3 on NTV's extended Friday night block, streamed on Hulu, and a second season is in the works.
