Got some great finds at the local Half-Prices, plus a few new drops in a frenzy of holiday shopping. Closed up some gaps in my Ranma collection and made huge progress on Excel Saga ($4-5 each except for 17 at $25, missing 7 and 18+ now), an actual factual volume of B. Ichi, and an elder CMX Emma release, Madoka in single volumes, nearly caught up on Yotsuba&!, and Vagabond's actually just me slowly working on a VIZBIG set to go with my singles.

My girlfriend got me Claymore and Vagabond!🏆

I mean all of this was expensive asf but most of them r one of my favorite mangas. Homunculus is my favorite manga so id say that it was worth it

I have several series that are still ongoing that I brought with the hype for them and like how do you keep track of them? I’m so behind on Sakamoto days, Dandadan and Mashle magic and muscle, it feels like they are releasing tons of volumes in a short time. How do you keep track? I have the bookshelf app to track what I have but this tracking what I need.

Also unrelated do you think they will release a second MHA box set now that there are 40 volumes? I have been putting off collecting after buying the first box set kind of anticipating a second.

had a barnes n nobles gift card and got some jjk! also finally starting hunter x hunter AND nana after years of wondering if i should, wish me luck fr 😭

Had to move all my manga to the home office. I never noticed how much there was until I put it all in one room.

I want just the boxes of box sets because I love the art and the look and have read them from my local library or online.

Some I'm looking for:

Tokyo Ghoul

Naruto

My Hero Academia

Chainsaw Man

Jujutsu Kaisen

Death Note

Akame Ga Kill

Yuri On Ice

I would love to pay a small fee to get them too me or meet up in person

How did everyone else do with their month

Photo doesn’t do justice 😍

Went to HPB today to get the coupon calendar for 2025. Was all too easy to spend $30 to get it (I could have easily spent $200, but I have some self control, lol).

On a side note, does anyone know why Servamp vol. 3 is so expensive? I feel like all other volumes are normal price, but volume 3 goes for like $30.

Switched from a black shelf (gave it to my lady being it matches her shelves she already had and I prefer white. This billy shelf also allows me to double stack which I love!

Collections complete:

• dragon ball z
• Demon Slayer
• Solo Leveling (up to date)
• Naruto (first box set is coming for Christmas)

The middle shelf is a little bit of a mess with my figures. Have to figure it out later :D

My friend and I checked out this nerd store that recently opened up. Manga shelf was filled with older manga like these!!! (& each volume in the selection was $5!)

Air Gear is practically brand new but Zetsubou-sensei has some damage/yellowing on the volumes…The SJ magazine was only 2 bucks I believe. All in all, 80$ for all of them is amazing imo!!!

I'm moving soon and i want to have a huge manga bookshelf and i'm wondering what is the best color for it? Now I have a dark brown bookshelf and I don't like it but this might be caused by it's weird design and the weird colour of my walls (some shelfs don't have back so i can see them and they are blue) I'm sure I don't want a white one What is your experience guys? I also want my figures to look well (Part of my aot collection in the picture)

man this was a good find
