Reporting from 1 source: ASCII.jp.
Amazon's Kindle Manga Weekend Festival is pairing with a 50% off sale on Yokoyama Mitsuteru's sci-fi series including 'Tetsujin 28-go,' 'Mars,' and 'Babel II' to make them effectively 75% off. Historical works like 'Sangokushi' and 'Suikoden' are also discounted through 50% points back. The sale runs through July 20.
The sale is part of Amazon's "Series Reading Start Support Sale," which the article notes mostly features short recent series, making the inclusion of Yokoyama's longer works unusual. The sci-fi titles "Tetsujin 28-go," "Mars," and "Babel II" are all 50% off; with the weekend's 50% points back, they become effectively 75% off. Historical works "Sangokushi" and "Suikoden" remain at list price but also earn 50% points back. The article also notes that the Kindle edition of the "Yokoyama Mitsuteru 90th Birthday Commemorative Digital Publication Selected Works" does not include "Giant Robo," and the author hopes publisher Hikari Productions will add it. The sale ends July 20.
