Tell Us About Your Anime/Manga Collections!

[Candy]

I want to see pictures of this impressive-sounding collection!

You'll have to be patient then. I just moved to a new place so my collection is everywhere right now. But good news anyway, I have a new shelve up so expect some pretty pictures. P:

Also, I can't defeat your collection anyway

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

Ah. Which seasons does that run comprise of? All of the manga tie-ins or is it just a 7 volume set like the one for the first season is?

The 7 volume set of the first season.

 

[Yuoaman]

I only own Akira and volume 1 of Attack on Titan on Blu-ray. I have pre-ordered volume 1 of Kill la Kill, however, and will be adding that to my collection as it releases. I also may release the Satsuki statue released by Good Smile (and probably anything else Satsuki-related, shut up).

I also have volume 1 of an Inuyasha laying around somewhere, though it isn't a very good set so I don't really count it.

 

[sh1nyzorua]

I have almost every volume of Fruits Basket and the Banquet book, I'm only missing five or so, volumes 1 and 2 of Durarara!!, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya novel, Sword Art online button and a sticker of Asuna, and a Durarara!! bracelet I made myself. Does Pokemon count? Cause if it does I have a binder full of cards, an Arceus poster, a metal Lucario tin, a bunch of the DS/3DS games, a sticker book, and twelve plushies (three I made myself). Not very much because I focus mainly on getting those last volumes of Fruits Basket. Nothing else anime/manga-related matters until I complete the series ;D

I told my friend I wanted the Fruits Basket DVD set for my birthday, and she keeps hinting that I'll get it, but we'll have to wait until next month to know (:

 

[Yuoaman]

Oh, earlier today I also preordered the 1/8 scale figure of Satsuki from Kill la Kill (Link here [possibly NSFW?]), but that won't be out until December.

They brought over one of the novels?! WANT WANT WANT WANT WANT

I know the feeling of putting all other series on hold to try to completely collect one, haha. I had a series like that myself, at least until it ended in English 2 years ago.

It's awesome that your friends will gift you things like that! :D

Holy crap that one's expensive, haha.

Nothing new here for me. Well, yet, anyway. I haven't been to Barnes & Noble in about a month. They're bound to have something new by this point.

The novel looked waaaaay different than the mangas, the covers I mean. The book I have has a red cover with Haruhi's silhouette instead of manga artwork. It was also in the teen books sections, I don't know if that was on purpose or on accident. I've never seen another novel from the series in person but there are other books in the series apparently.

Which bookseller did you find it in? Barnes & Noble? I might have a new place to look next time I'm there.


Anyway, I went to Barnes & Noble today and got these 4 books:

There was quite a bit more I wanted, but I kinda had to stop myself there since there's a lot of series that I'm already reading that will have new volumes coming out soon.

So, yes, that massive manga collection from the first post is expanding even further.

I'm pretty sure the light novels have been out officially in English for a few years now, actually. I really want to get my hands on them, also.

Yeah, it is, haha, but I've been waiting months for Satsuki merchandise of any sort, so I had to jump on it.

I bought it used at Half Price Books.

 

[Alfieri]

I don't buy any of the manga volumes and dvd box sets (saving money on student loan and video games).
However I do have a lot of merchandise such as a One Piece wall scroll, DBZ VHS tapes from when I was a kid, DBZ Wall Scroll, anime video games like Tenkaichi Budokai 3 and Ninja Storm Full Burst, etc.

I know where I'm going next weekend!

That stuff sounds even more expensive than the DVDs. :o






Anyway, I ordered a bunch of Miku crap last night off of Amazon, because why not? I'll be getting pictures up of that stuff when it arrives, though I won't see the Miku wallet I ordered until the end of the month.

Well it's more content for my buck. I don't want to pay 40-60 for a Blue Ray or DVD set of a show I'll only watch one time.
I'd rather spend my 30-60 dollars on a video game that I will replay for decades.

I was talking about the merch, not the video games, haha. I know you get more hours of entertainment from a video game as opposed to a box set, as I have a substantial amount more video games than I do DVD box sets of any media myself. For comparison of merch versus DVD box sets, I was able to get a season of DBZ at Target for $20 a couple weeks ago, and I have a Haruhi wall scroll that cost me $15 (or was it $40? - I don't remember).

Oh well with the merch, it's not like I bought them all at once. I got each merch in small increments over the past decade.
And 40 seems like a lot for a wall scroll. :o

It is most definitely a lot, haha.

Anyway, I got some things in the mail yesterday. They were Black Cat Volume 5, The Hatsune Miku Project Diva F accessories pack, and a Hatsune Miku messenger bag!

Album of these can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/40iAa

I'm pretty sure I still crave more merch, haha.

 

[«Chuckles»]

250 gigs worht of Anima and Manga, most of the manga i haven't even touched on because A) it doesnt interest me B) havent got to it yet and C) its a raw. Anime however, I have a lot of first episodes that I decided to give a go but never got into.

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

250 gigs worht of Anima

YOU HAVE 250GBs OF SOULS?!
Sir, you are awesome!

C) its a raw.

Why do you even download it when it's RAW? :D

 

[«Chuckles»]

Most of its Tezuka's work and its a real shame that no scanlation teams want to translate his work. And because those RAWs are rare especially 400 volumes worth of the godfathers manga. I'm still looking for the other 300 :(
