Field notes
The site organizes the manga as a year-by-year archive, with individual links for each listed issue and a selector for older publication years. Its visible index contains 198 back issues, beginning with issue 123 in January 2010 and continuing through issue 321 in August 2026. A character profile adds local context: Bonchi-kun is a second-grade Miyakonojo resident whose dialogue uses the area’s dialect, and the page attributes the work to Miyako no Joe.
