Hey everyone!
I’m going to keep posting updates whenever I have them even if they’re tiny. So here’s the latest breakdown for both the COLOR EDITION and MIDNIGHT EDITION.
First off: we’re answering roughly 500 emails a day…and then wake up to another 500 the next morning. A lot of these are address updates, which is totally fine we’re working through them and figuring it all out. It’s just clogging our inbox, but we expected this to happen which is why we had as many people as possible do it three months ago.
COLOR EDITION
We’re now in the later part of Batch 2.
The timing got a little weird because of Memorial Day weekend, so MacMillian was closed Monday (though we did get a jump on Midnight Editions that day).
About 400 international orders are going out tomorrow on top of USA, Canada.
We’re also having a meeting Monday to figure out how to speed this process up even more.
The biggest bottleneck right now is honestly just data. The process goes:
Nashville exports batches → MacMillian imports them → UPS imports them
There’s a small data conformity issue happening between systems, mostly with certain UK addresses. Some UK addresses work perfectly, others have unusual formatting where there’s no street name and only numbers or district identifiers. Different systems want address information formatted differently, so we’ve had to manually verify some of these orders.
USA, Canada, and most international orders are moving smoothly and at a nice pace. This is still moving around 40x faster than I could have done this by myself. Thousands of books have been shipped out and it is getting faster
MIDNIGHT EDITION
We’ve been packing roughly 200-ish books per day. We have around 400 books hitting the post office tomorrow.
We already have another 100 packed and we’re continuing to pack through today and tomorrow.
MIDNIGHT SHIP DAYS ARE: TUESDAYS & FRIDAYS
(The post office hates us.)
But we are moving. We’re working long hours and moving about as fast as we can.
One final thing:
You may notice some big jumps in batch numbers. That’s because batch numbers include ALL orders not just graphic novels.
More tomorrow! -Olan
Controversial topic: AI.
I think most artists despise AI. This is pretty much clear. But we shouldn’t treat the people who USE AI like they are also slop. They might just be uneducated on how much trouble AI causes.
Can we try something like this next time, artists?
A new potential Rice Pokémon in Pokémon Winds & Waves? 🌾
I came up with this idea after seeing a location from the Teraleak called Terraced Rice Fields.
Since rice is such an important part of many Asian cultures, I thought it would make sense for Game Freak to create a Pokémon based on a rice grain — similar to how they created Smoliv for Paldea, inspired by the importance of olives in Spain.
We may have even already seen this supposed location in the trailer 👀
Would you like to see a Rice Pokémon in the game?

@KossKelir If I did more things and we were closer, you and I would most for sure be hanging out a lot together
I liked the time we spent. You're awesome <3
