And you can't really compare Horizon and Hako Mari....Hako Mari is more similar to Biblia Koshoten....Horizon is far, far more complex.
Wait, what? In what way is Hakomari similar to Koshoten?

If anything, I'd compare it to other supernatural brick-shitage-inducing novels, though I can't name any right now. But if memory serves me right, Biblio Koshoten had no supernatural elements or particularly confusing elements, in the first volume at least, nor does it sell as bad as Hakomari. Or Mikage in general. I was shocked when I ordered his 2006 release of Kamisu Rena and it was still the first press release... despite its awesomeness.

That being said, I'm hyped for volume 5.
