Here in finland we usually have 5€ per manga! Its a bit more expensive but I think its duable. You can find manga at smaller convinience stores or even big shops :D
It's usually around 9€ in Hungary per manga as I've seen so far. Buying these in Hungarian is even cheaper than buying English ones online. Many of them cost 13€ or more. Also, our country's salaries are way lower compared to the Western European countries.
I remember asking a friend to buy back some manga from Japan so I could practice my reading. He brough back 6 volumes of a series I liked and I was prepared to pay out ~80 $ for all 6 (for refrence, my local comic shop charges 12 $ for popular series and 16/18 $ for less popular series). But a single volume was just a little under 5 $ each. They even came wtih a slip cover and a little "thanks for your purchase card" as a nice throw-in. Suffice to say, for a collector like me, I am insanely jealous.
Hey man I have a question about something. You said you were practicing Japanese so does that mean you learned or are learning it from scratch? I obviously speak English and am looking to speak Japanese, do you mind telling me what program or app you used to learn it?
@@andrerl1031 I am self taught, but I've stalled recently due to some professional issues, so I've fallen off the last year or so. Anyway, before you get too deep into learning a language, especially Japanese, which would be among the most difficult for someone who only speaks a Germanic (ie. English) language. Just start off memorizing Hiragana and Katakana to see if you like it. I personally used Tofugos Hiragana and Katakana mnomonics, and they've stuck with me since I learned them ~3 years ago. Try to remember a set of 5 characters at a time ie. A, I, U, E, O and then KA, KI, KU, KE, KO and (this is the important bit) WAIT 5-6 hours, and quiz them again. Neural paths in your brain strengthen a lot more when you try to remember something you are *just* about to forget, learning for 15 minutes over 8 days is waaaaay more effective than cramming for 2 hours in 1 day. Once you feel comfortable with the first set, add the next set to the quiz and continue until you have memorized both Kana. >Hiragana www.tofugu.com/japanese/learn-hiragana/ >Katakana www.tofugu.com/japanese/learn-katakana/ >Kana quiz kana-quiz.tofugu.com/ After that, well, Japanese becomes a lot more difficult, as there isn't any real good way to learn Kanji. The only thing you shouldn't do, is making the common mistake of waiting too long to learn Kanji. Start on it FIRST THING after you feel comfortable with both Hiragana and Katakna. It is by far the longest, most tedious part of learning Japanese (heck, Japanese school children spend damn near 10 years doing it) so just find out what works best for you. But, to give you some pointers, Anki is a decent start. You can find the free "core 2k/6k" deck which contains the 6000 most used Kanji, the first 2000 of which covers ~80 % of daily use. I've found Wanikani a lot better for me, the first 200 Kanji is free, but after that it does cost money, so see if you like it. Duolingo can be a bit of a trap, and it is, just don't use it by itself. It is decent for getting a daily rep in, somewhat like doing a pre-workout. But just like only doing pre-workout, if it is all you do you won't see any growth. All the same rules go for grammar, just find a source that works for you, a lot of people like Tae kims grammar guide. Aside from that, just try out a bit of everything and see what works out. Here is a couple of links and tips that worked for me: >jisho.org/ is a free Japanese dictionary, probably the best there is too >Yomichan is a free browser add-on for firefox/chrome that can be used to look up anything from Jisho by just dragging your mouse and holding control, takes a little effort to set up though >tadoku.org/japanese/free-books/ has tons of free beginner friendly books, and even a few pretty difficult ones too, highly reccoment this just to get started >corocoro.jp/ is the official site for the magazine CoroCoro comics which is aimed at elementery school children, but it is still somewhat difficult to read if you are new It is a marathon, not a race, so just do your best to stick with it!
at 1:11 those characters from the photo cards are from the game enstars!! its like project sekai but w a dif play style and all characters are guys bc idol groups etc!!
The one where two boys on a bicycle - Migi and Dali- is a rlly good series that is and ongoing anime atm! It’s about two twin brothers where only one was adopted meaning they must live as one whilst finding the murderer of their mother! It’s got funny moments and I am not sure how the manga has progressed since the mangaka died r.i.p but I think it’s a pretty good series so far! >w
ahh thank you so so much!! I'm definitely going to have to check out this series~ the cover was so interesting, but your explanation made it even more enticing! but ahh yes rest in peace to the mangaka :((
@@sleepyheaaad07it is, but I also have a good lot of manga on my shelf that I wish I could’ve gotten it cheaper 😅and especially now cause my wallet is depressingly empty atm so… 😔
@@Reallich_Na it’s still weird considering that the German editions are also significantly cheaper than the English ones, even if they look the exact same.
Loved being able to see the pricing on these to get a sense of how affordable they are! So many lovely covers and series that looked adorable/wholesome
Nah these prices make me wish I could collect from Japan instead. Got me spending like 10+ on a volume and that's with me buying from Walmart which has them discounted 😭. And paying regular price at Barnes and Noble has me dead 💀.
The fact that you got out of there with NO manga's whatsoever proves to me that you have either the mind of steel cause I would have practically been robbed of millions if I was a millionaire 😭. It's such a rarity seeing cheap manga's. Thank you for blessing us with this sight lol
I recommend reading Hell's Paradise, the manga is so amazing especially the artwork. It has a perfect ending and it isn't that long anyway, perfectly paced.
@@Bush_bro14 well yea ofc its not gonna be in english; its just that for being able to pay less than here in the states most of us arent able to fully read it
@@_Peregrinus_fr like i have a one piece manga from volume 1 to 84 i know ITS A LOT and it takes. So much space from my room and most of it are in japanese i only know a little bit of japanese and that is the problem all tho the prices ar pretty good bc i bought it from japan and the quality is amazing
Seeing someone going through mangas ans them finding one thats underrated and complimenting them must be so heartwarming since the community is small ❤❤❤
Book off is my go to! Especially here in america, i have found figures, books and even video games at such a low price truly my favorite comfort place to go. ❤️
@@hannnza yes! Theres so many store around at least here in Cali, they have a section in English and original Japanese depending on which store you go to! :)
TH-cam recommended brought me here. I love browsing at Book Off even if I can't read Japanese (yet). Just flipping through some random manga and enjoying the art is a good way to spend a lot of time there. The one you browsed here was one of my favorites to visit. Very well organized store, and the aisles are slightly wider then other Book Off I visited.
I'm going to Japan next October and Book Off is on my list of places to go! 😁😁😁 (We'll be taking an extra suitcase inside our big suitcase just for manga/snacks/souvenirs 😅😁
That seems like both hell and paradise at the same time... like sure SO much manga and it's always exciting just being able to see series that you enjoy and be able to browse potential new series to read, but at the same time... unless you can read Japanese, it'd still be a "waste" of money unless it's something you're happy to just collect for the sake of collecting - which however cheap still costs money and space.
Ahh i love kono oto tomare too!! At 2:16! And also owari no seraph!! 6:29! And coffee and vanilla @ 9:33 too!! Woah i got so many new manga and anime recs from here! Thank you very much for the video!!💖✨
Vietnam also has really high quality yet cheap costing manga. When I visited there last year I bought tons of manga. Volumes were like 1-3 dollars Canadian each.
03:43 "Suki na ko ga megane o wasureta" is a very sweet romcom, I love it. The anime is.... okay, I guess? The voices, the OP and ED are all great, but the animation has some bizarre visuals sometime, especially in the first episode. My favourite anime romcom this year was definitely BokuYabai! By the way, "Tonari no onee-san" by Fujichika Koume is a cute manga too. I'm collecting the japanese volumes.
praying prices like these hit some of the stores near me I cant even buy 6 volumes without dishing out 50 but at least crunchyroll gives out a good discount for my subscription
I love the music of your videos. The music in this one is just what is needed for book shopping. I love your channel and I am looking forward to buy some manga in Japan on my next trip.
Ahh imagine working in a store like this >< In my country idk if there is any manga shop, but since I'm not close to a really big city, it's hard to find even asian snacks like pocky or Samyang noodles. So I got so happy when I saw these in a store today. It was quite far away but I will defintely go back to try more.
1:40 my school library has a bunch of series of that manga/comic, and they also have haikyuu books :3 (Books are free to read we just have to hand them back in after a few weeks.
Wow Japan has Bookoff!! I never knew that! I've been to two Bookoffs in California. One in Torrance California in the Del Amo mall and another in Compton. I miss going to that place. I would buy cds and movies over there.
Veryyyy cozy video😊 thats a insane amount of manga lol the reason why im thinking they have that many is because they know they'll sell in japan, in the states its a hit or miss, but its a growing trend to get manga so maybe theyll start expanding for us too
This video was so nice to watch! Also, I have no idea as to how you managed not to leave all your money at that shop, I wouldn't have had the self control to keep myself from buying absolutely everything I see (-v-). Where I live, I always have to pay at least $15 for a single volume TT!!
haha yes!! I definitely got so lost, I was even lost when I was editing the footage like where am I haha!! It was definitely so fun seeing all of the series I've never seen before
😮🤤🤤 I could get lost in there for weeks, this video was awesome also I’m a new subscriber to this channel, I look forward to seeing more, I also like the music you put with the video because it’s just relaxing and chill music to listen to while watching you go through manga.
Just got my first few manga recently. Had a £200 book voucher and brought around £130 of manga with it. Manga here is between £8-£16 a volume depending on the series, popularity and age. Would really be amazing to see cheaper manga here but it will probably never happen, still it's cheaper than when I tried to collect marvel comics and the covers look better
ohhh book off!! there’s some here in the U.S. - not as big of a collection/variety, but it’s where I get my cheap pins/badges. it does suck since it’s rare I find something in a fandom im in 😭 the manga collection is decent tho!!
I should state that if you want to be happy while trying different mangas all time - try to learn basic Japanese to the level you can / try to read from ground up
it's been a while since i've watched your videos!! i'm so sorry :( i hope you are doing well!! i wanted to ask what place in japan you recommend going to? me and my friend are planning a trip to asia. originally we were gonna go to the philippines and vietnam since i'm viet and he filipino. although we want to go to japan along with that! we're still having a bit of a hard time trying to find out a place to go to!!
1:10 These are Characters from Enstars! - A few things I have gethered when I used to play it: I think it started as a game (It's one of those Idol games where you have to tap to the rhythm) but it also has a Anime adaption (not sure how many episodes though) When I looked up If it has manga it says there is Manga that follows the main story but from what I have heard from other players, is that there is actually a lot of plot behind this game so not sure what it's actually about and where the plot actually starts. +THIS PLACE IS SO WOW😭 A few weeks ago I was thinking about buying Manga but I didn't know what and since it's not cheap here where I live I was scared I'm gonna buy something that I don't really end up liking, I started to look at other websites even in Japanese/like original without translation but unfortunately there wasn't a difference in the prices😭😭
THAILAND ALSO HAS JAPANESE MANGAS FOR 80 BAHT (which are TWO euros and slightly more than 2 american dollars ). I bought several jujutsu kaisen mangas in my thailand trip last month. But still bad for english readers, as those mangas are obviously in this case written in Thai characters. Btw it depends on WHERE you buy them in thailand. In bangkok they are a bit more expensive but where i was (northeast thailand in khon kaen at a big mall) they all were 80 baht.
Omg they're so cheap and there are so many! Where I live it's impossible to find manga. I have to go all the way to town and even then they have nothing most of the time. It's supper expensive too😭 At the price you get the bundles I can't even buy 2 volumes😭😭 I'm 100% convinced the shop ur in is heaven
in sweden most volumes cost somewhere between 15-20 dollars...... and thats if u buy them online..... if i go to a shop and theres is like only 2-3 shops all over sweden which actually sells manga the prices are even higher and sometimes double the ''regular'' price

Man, the quality of the books regardless of their price point is amazing. I feel like that's almost impossible to see that in the US.
Yes I agree!! Even though they’re much smaller, they still hold up so well~ and there’s some with gorgeous quality!! the prices are actually insane
or in Italy :(
It’s a different culture. Reading manga is not necessarily a kids thing.
But I do wonder if the digitized books affected manga in Japan?
Yeah
Omg I would love to shop for the bl manga US is slowly growing but still not enough compared to that section
Cheap manga or as I like to call it "Going broke simulator". Seriously thoses prices are crazy wish they had something like that in my country.
omg that’s to good, going broke simulator !!! 😭😭😭 I really wish these prices for manga were worldwide!!!
Yeah
It’s only 5 dollars in my country! So cheap
The manga in the country I live in is so fcking expensive. It's like 45-70 aed
One manga in my country Costs 27 !! How bad 😭😭
THE PRICES ARE SO GOOD
I KNOW RIGHTTT
@@mangatamano translation price and export are added to the original
I think princess also.....😊@@mangatama
It's a shame they (probably) don't sell English versions only Japanese as for around $2+ per manga compared to $8-15+ per manga here is incredible
here mangas cost like R$36/40 and sometimes R$80 and im not even talking about the shipment fees, y'all are living on a dream :")
@@noeyesalwaysw4tching different currencies though so $15 for him could be more for you.

@@mangatama Yes you should those Bookoffs are starting to show up in a lot of places in Cali. There might be one or two in your part of California.
Veryyyy cozy video😊 thats a insane amount of manga lol the reason why im thinking they have that many is because they know they'll sell in japan, in the states its a hit or miss, but its a growing trend to get manga so maybe theyll start expanding for us too
Thank you so so much!! Definitely an insane amount of manga haha~ yess hoping manga gets even more popular in america soon!
This video was so nice to watch! Also, I have no idea as to how you managed not to leave all your money at that shop, I wouldn't have had the self control to keep myself from buying absolutely everything I see (-v-). Where I live, I always have to pay at least $15 for a single volume TT!!
It's seriously the cheapest with unbelievably good quality
3:43 hmm it's really good!! I really like the series so much ❤❤
I feel like I would get lost and spend literal hours searching through the shelves!! So many interesting series not published in English! •A•)
haha yes!! I definitely got so lost, I was even lost when I was editing the footage like where am I haha!! It was definitely so fun seeing all of the series I've never seen before
😮🤤🤤 I could get lost in there for weeks, this video was awesome also I’m a new subscriber to this channel, I look forward to seeing more, I also like the music you put with the video because it’s just relaxing and chill music to listen to while watching you go through manga.
6:37 does anyone know the name of this one?
Just got my first few manga recently. Had a £200 book voucher and brought around £130 of manga with it. Manga here is between £8-£16 a volume depending on the series, popularity and age. Would really be amazing to see cheaper manga here but it will probably never happen, still it's cheaper than when I tried to collect marvel comics and the covers look better
i wonder if in the long run it’s cheaper to just learn japanese to be able to read the original versions than buy the english translated ones..
ohhh book off!! there’s some here in the U.S. - not as big of a collection/variety, but it’s where I get my cheap pins/badges. it does suck since it’s rare I find something in a fandom im in 😭 the manga collection is decent tho!!
Wowwww I’m so jealous! I wish we had a store like this in New York 😭💜 I would buy everything 😂
I wish something like this shows up in the U.S. soon too!! >< cheap prices are soo nice haha
horimiya and bungo stray dogs! two of my favs 🫶
Oh em gee I wanna visit Japan so bad. The U.S. has absolutely crazy prices for manga. Like $14+ for one volume!
😮omg.... really?? 10dollor.... ....
OMG
that looks fantastic. There are nowhere near stores in Germany with such a large selection of manga❤❤
thank you for writing the prices. it's crazy, how cheap these mangas are in Japan!😄
Congratulations on 100k!
You are on of my favourite youtbers❤
Thank you so so much!! I truly appreciate it so much
There were so many mangas!
I can spend all day in that place😍
Really enjoyed your video
Thank you for taking us to such an amazing place with you❤️✨
Thank you so much!! So happy to hear you enjoyed it :))
3:07 magi is so so good !! it’s def one of my favorites/my all time favorite ! i highly recommend it 🫶🫶
I should state that if you want to be happy while trying different mangas all time - try to learn basic Japanese to the level you can / try to read from ground up
it's been a while since i've watched your videos!! i'm so sorry :( i hope you are doing well!!
i wanted to ask what place in japan you recommend going to? me and my friend are planning a trip to asia. originally we were gonna go to the philippines and vietnam since i'm viet and he filipino. although we want to go to japan along with that! we're still having a bit of a hard time trying to find out a place to go to!!
omg don't be sorry at all, thank you for watching again!!
1:10 They're characters from a Rhythm game called 'Ensemble Stars'! :D
Thanks for the video! I totally relate to your decision paralysis 😂
thank you so much for watching!! haha if the store wasn't closing yet, I'd be there for hours!!
I’m guilty of that 🤣I’m picky with my manga
1:10 These are Characters from Enstars! - A few things I have gethered when I used to play it: I think it started as a game (It's one of those Idol games where you have to tap to the rhythm) but it also has a Anime adaption (not sure how many episodes though) When I looked up If it has manga it says there is Manga that follows the main story but from what I have heard from other players, is that there is actually a lot of plot behind this game so not sure what it's actually about and where the plot actually starts.
+THIS PLACE IS SO WOW😭 A few weeks ago I was thinking about buying Manga but I didn't know what and since it's not cheap here where I live I was scared I'm gonna buy something that I don't really end up liking, I started to look at other websites even in Japanese/like original without translation but unfortunately there wasn't a difference in the prices😭😭
Muchas gracias por el gran video 100%
0:48 not even lying, in my country that would cost 40-50
Me wanting to buy them! 😊😊😊 *me realizing that manga is in Japanese * I don’t speak Japanese
haha that's ok!! before I could read, I just collected them for fun XD
Everything she does is crazy cute!! Teach me how to do stuff like this!
POV: you can’t read Japanese 😭😭😭
3:50 so happy that this is popular ❤ i wish more fans were in canada
1:12 I think they are from ensemble stars, it’s a mobile rhythm game if you’re curious!
ooo thanks so much!! i’ll definitely check it out hehe
THAILAND ALSO HAS JAPANESE MANGAS FOR 80 BAHT (which are TWO euros and slightly more than 2 american dollars ). I bought several jujutsu kaisen mangas in my thailand trip last month.
But still bad for english readers, as those mangas are obviously in this case written in Thai characters.
Btw it depends on WHERE you buy them in thailand. In bangkok they are a bit more expensive but where i was (northeast thailand in khon kaen at a big mall) they all were 80 baht.
3:47 is a really good manga about twins (that get adopted) who want to avenge their mothers death.
Omg they're so cheap and there are so many! Where I live it's impossible to find manga. I have to go all the way to town and even then they have nothing most of the time. It's supper expensive too😭 At the price you get the bundles I can't even buy 2 volumes😭😭
I'm 100% convinced the shop ur in is heaven
Oh woww.. Love it. I want the fruits basket series and spy family :)
6:54 watch the anime/read the manga!! it's a great storyline. i recomend the anime cuz the music is so beautiful
1:12 Those characters are from the idol raising/rhythm game ensemble stars!!
in sweden most volumes cost somewhere between 15-20 dollars...... and thats if u buy them online..... if i go to a shop and theres is like only 2-3 shops all over sweden which actually sells manga the prices are even higher and sometimes double the ''regular'' price
THAT TOMATO JUICE IN THE START WAS MY CHILDHOOD! OMGGGG
At barnes and noble there was a 3 in 1 manga of "a sign of affection" and it was significantly cheap for the size! it was $23 !!
The god keeps dropping fire. Mangatama is a legend!
haha you’re the legend!! Thank you so much
at 1:11 those are ensemble stars characters!! It's from a game
