      Okay so I've been reading the Light Novel for Demon Lord: Retry, and wanted to start on the Manga, when I went into there it shows Volume 1-5, then once again 1-5. After reading the description of the 2nd Volume 1 it says it is a revamp of the series, so I'm just wanting to double check and make sure before I buy, the original V1-5 and the newer 1-5 aren't the same ones, right? It doesn't seem like it, i just want to be 100% sure...

        @Cerickson25 Correct. The first set of vol 1-5 cover the start of the series until after resolving the monster attack in the city of Rookie. The second volume 1 starts when Hakuto summons Akane.

          The series' name for the first 5 volumes is Demon Lord, Retry! while the other 5 volumes are actually Demon Lord, Retry! R.

          They changed the name, but the story is ongoing. I guess JNC put them on the same series page for continuity, but they should have made it more clear that the new volumes' name is different.

              @Terabyte I figured they were different due to reading the descriptions. But wasn't 100% sure because some Manga/Anime gets a revamp and the whole series starts again.

              Though, I agree. Doing something more to help others know it's a continuation of the series would help, IDK what they could do though. Maybe a disclaimer at the top, right after the title? saying something like

              "Disclamer: No mistake on seeing Vol. 1-5 twice. After the First 1-5 volumes, the second set is under the new title "Demon Lord: Retry R", and is the continuation of the series."

              Thats about the only thing I can think of, cause some people might not read the descriptions of the Volume they buy, or miss rhe giant "R" next to Demon Lord:Retry (I did lol). Then just think the second 1-5 are just a remastered version of the older ones.
