whoops Ajin has 17 volumes LOL why am i like this
It's an honest mistake since 17 came out so recently and it felt like forever since 16 came out.
Guide to collecting manga 101:
- Go out
- Get in the store
- Grab a manga
- Get your wallet and pay for it
- Get out the store
- Go home
The 6 G's of collecting manga.
I’ll fight you
@@jurmild953 Sure.
Got out but there’s no store😟
@@rochitgurung9090 one extra step for you:
Find store
More like go to RightStufAnime to avoid sales tax, shipping, and retail (assuming you live anywhere in the U.S. that isn’t Iowa)
Definitely wish I would have started picking up One Piece a few years ago when I originally started collecting. Then I would’ve been able to pick up those box sets for retail or less 😫
this is such an amazing and thorough guide!!! Your tips are so solid and I wish I knew more of these before collecting haha, thanks for an awesome video Boogie!
I knew I recognized that profile picture I took a second glance and I was like “Wait a minute…”
I really highly recommend everybody to get the fullmetal alchemist hardcover, they looks so beautiful on shelf and it’s the hardcovers arent that hard to find but just a bit pricey
Yuup
Ya they look great but I went the cheaper route collecting the 3in1 and I love them they look great on my shelf
great video!! i wish i watched videos like these when i started but this is actually very helpful
I love how you highlighted limiting yourself through your storage (or lack of it) so you don't amass a crazy collection that isn't as curated as you'd like. I'm trying to do the same thing and ooofff, it's hard not to want to fill it all up bc there's so many great series to collect. I may be getting close tho haha
Man I really enjoyed your content keep the good work my guy👍❤
Hey boogie love your content keep it up man and more vlogs! I wish i knew about GTO that manga is classic.
As someone who works for a library, I wanna mention regardless of your library’s collection you can always do an Interlibrary Loan which essentially grants you access to all libraries nationwide if you can’t find something in your system.
I thought interlibrary loans only worked between branches of the same library system?
Great video as always, love your content!
A few things I thought could be added:
Storage: the ikea ‘Hemnes’ bookcases are really good as well. Also the ‘skögsta’ wall shelves are great for manga and can be used in spaces that wouldn’t usually be used (because I’m tall my shelves are near the top of my wall, definitely a space saver)
Buying manga: I recommend getting a box set where possible to save money. However, people buying volumes as they come out support the manga industry and increase the likelihood of a series being continued through the sales of physical volumes.
Don’t forget the Billy bookcases
Either be patient or be on top of your preorder game
I have just recently gotten into manga and it might just be a phase but I don't really know. Been watching your content A TON recently. I don't know if it's just me, but I like to have everything in my native language (finnish) because I love my language and it's so much easier! It costs less because manga isn't that popular here and the translations are always funny or just awesome :)
I‘m from Austria/Europe - and damn it‘s very hard to find manga - even in vienna! Especially english deluxe editions 😩 But book depository and amazon are live savers 🤗
Sadly local book stores have very limited offers.
Love your videos and your positive vibes 😊
I feel your pain 😔🤚
Im from Bratislava loll
I would love a video about how to get rid of Yellowing!
I agree that collecting can be very addicting! As a manga tip, I would say read the manga digitally then purchase the physical copies if you enjoy the series. Also collect what you like and don’t feed into the hype. You don’t need to buy a series just because it’s hot even though you don’t like it personally.
Unfortunately you can't get rid of yellowing pages, as that's just something that will happen when paper ages regardless. However you can slow it down by keeping your books out of direct sunlight and controlling the humidity levels around them.
@@littofox Fine sandpaper can be used as a short term solution as while it does remove yellowing, it also removes a small amount of the paper as well
I started collecting in 2017 but I only got my first part time job last year, so for a long time I was only getting manga as gifts (only getting 3-6 volumes a year) and that really helped me see the value I guess? Now that I can buy whatever I want I still have the mindset of “how worth it is to buy this series?” I’d recommend starting off collecting small for that reason.
Yes
The manga I wish I knew about when I started collecting is Eyeshield 21. An American football series written by the creator of Dr. Stone and artwork done by the artist of One Punch Man??
Totally wish I knew about the series sooner.
My one piece box set 4 came in today and great video!
Man i live in Cyprus (Europe) and i can only get manga from online shops - the shipping is ridiculous.
Great video btw!
I've only been collecting for roughly a year, but i wish i knew about Osamu Tezuka's works when i started. They are good deals for their size, and are mostly one volume in total. great stuff to start a collection.
Wonderful and perfect tutorial how to video Boogie patience is not my cup of tea and to your point I would love to collect Slam Dunk but there’s too many counterfeit sets from Malaysia on eBay and on principal I’m not being held hostage for $200 for say , an ex library volume 17 no way no how .
The original Dororo was my entry into manga. I know its not the best out there but its definitely a good read!
Omg for a sec I thought this was a manga haul lol. I was bouta be like boogie you cashed out 😂
I wish I found Seraph of the end and the king's beast sooner. I love both of them so far, but barely can find any seraph volumes in my country atm which is sad.
I'm from Greece and unfortunately there are no barnes n nobles ,kinokuniya etc here. My only option besides online shopping is a local shop ,which I found recently:/.
I think i'd have liked to have read Gantz much earlier. I've just started Gantz omni vol.1 and it's a beautiful page turner. Awesome stuff.
It really is
Within 2 weeks I’m now on Omnibus Vol 5. It’s the Manga equivalent of binge watching TV seasons. Love it
i live in london and there is a shop which many comic/ manga/ anime / movie fans know and come to london to shop too. That being forrbiden planet it sells figures manga comics toys and all sorts of weeby stuff
I've been reading digital for 5 years and now moved to physical as I got some more money. I noticed that series I enjoyed digitally I did not enjoy physically and vice versa. Digital I prefer romance and action series but for physical I only like comedy and slice of life. Best advice, don't think about getting manga for "Collecting". Just get stuff you enjoy reading without caring about others. I regret getting so much One punch man just because I liked it digitally or wanted a more common series. I would of much preferred to spend that money elsewhere on some lesser known comedy manga.
The advice of not filling a gap is good for all aspects of life. All people do it. You see a space and on impulse you buy something to fill it. Yeah, just try not to do this. That space will fill naturally over time with stuff you generally enjoy. Great video and some great advice
I live in norway and started reading dragon ball earlier this year as my first manga. The shop where i buy it has a ton of manga, but i rarely see series with all volumes on shelf.
you heard it here first from Boogie. “Size does matter”😂😂😂😂
I wish I was collecting manga when Fist of the North Star was going, I missed out on those master editions. Been collecting comics for 3 decades and never gave manga a second thought until I read vampire hunter d.
Ajin is a definite must read.
A piece of advice if there is something that you want from Viz’s Shonen jump line that is currently hard to find just wait there is often 20+ reprints for certain popular volumes and new editions are released for older series quite often
My library is pretty small but has a surprisingly big manga selection. Ppl keep stealing stuff tho. We used to have a bunch of the Fruits Basket singles but people stole a lot of them
I'm right there with you with series size, the only series i collect that is 20+ volumes is golden kamuy, everything else especially shounen i just read on the app since i usually want to binge it and theres no way im gonna buy every volume. usually the physical volumes i buy are either not available online or very old or not many volumes. right now im collecting sayonara zetsubou sensei and its definitely out of print but its readily available second hand for like 9$ after shipping. books a million also tends to say they have out of print books in stock that they don't actually have nor will get, i ran into that problem with fire punch so def be careful with them.
so true like im collecting one punch man ( im up to date ) but the onle volume im missing is volume 4
I'll add to, dont be afraid to return manga you don't click with. Especially big box bookstores. Its not often i pick up a series and its not what i like but every so often i do and it doesnt have to stay in your collection if youd rather have that money go to a series ur working on completing or maybe you've been waiting on. Just take it back.
I’d love to see a video about reversing yellowing pages!
Fine sandpaper can be used as a short term solution as while it does remove yellowing, it also removes a small amount of the paper as well
I live in canada. most of my manga is bought online from chapters although amazon has waaaaaay better deals on box sets, I got one piece box set 4 for 50% off when the pre-order went live.
i wish i started collecting since 90s i regret ignoring them and focusing dc marvel,thanks for this i started collecting but still its hard to collect in chronological order and also its tough to find time to read due to depending on technology
Before I spend my money on demon slayer manga,I wish I had knew about Komi Cant Communicate. KCC was one of the mangas that has a simple comic panel. Did not go through pages,and not that many boxes in one page. This is because its easier to understand how to read manga properly. I got (kinda) confused reading demon slayer and Splatoon.
Finally you back huh? Well it’s good Ig
My friend who I call bob gets his manga from the school library, we have all of one piece
Ik I'm like 9 months late but 💀 I wish I found out abt yellowing pages earlier. I got my first 7 volumes of Tokyo Ghoul around 2 years ago but at the time I still wasn't into manga. I recently got into it and have put the volumes next to my new ones but since I didn't take care of Tokyo Ghoul properly the first 7 volumes are yellow while my 3 new ones are white. It doesn't bother me too much but once I collect more i might replace those 7.
I live in Parma Ohio and there is only one Walmart that has like 3 mangas at a time or there is a book store called walls of books near me and they have a few newer stuff but that’s it have to rely on Amazon basically
The funny thing is my local library has more manga than my local bookshop.
I am a big fan of isekai/fantasy series. Some of my all time faves are "final fantasy lost stranger" and "the rising of the shield hero".
Arifureta and infinite dendrogram light novels are good
Good video!
One piece is the 1st series that I wish I could've collected but amazon is always out of stock or selling the boxsets 3x-4x the retail price.
To keep my manga in great condition I keep it away from sunlight as in the the pains will be the only visible thing as it’s kept I. My cupboard so their is shade
Well I’m from India and it’s hard for me to get my manga cz Amazon doesn’t handle the manga well and sites like bookswagon has the issue of stock with some manga’s
HINAMATSURI FTW. I need the rest in English asap 🙏🏼
yes
Someone short and great series which have some action
Wish i knew about my interest in collecting manga and got FMA! The manga is so good and even better than the anime in terms of having a complete story
I wish I started reading Vinland saga earlier it’s so fire
I usually read on the Shonen jump app but I buy physically for the ones that are not there on the app .
Im from finland and a shop close by has like 4 volumes of different manga
I’d recommend anyone new to manga to read Astra Lost in Space. It’s a wonderful sci-fi series about a group of kids that are stranded in space visiting different planets trying to make their way home. It’s full of adventure, mystery, comedy, and hard hitting moments with wonderful and memorable characters. And it’s complete with only 5 volumes so it’s easy to collect.
I loved Astra! I loved how short it was yet all the characters had their own individual arcs and it had a nice happy ending
I wish I had started collecting Fairy Tail from when it was first released, it's such a pain now cause they are slowly going out of stock/out of print (spanish vers.)
Just get the 6 box sets
Join a community like takara cafe and finding out of stock manga becomes waaaaaaaaaayyyy easier
the flowers of evil and beck
I’ve learned quite quickly that everything gets re-printed…
I'm from India and its damn hard to find manga offline in this vast country
i wish i would’ve kept collecting when i first started in 2015 but the series i wish i kept collecting was one punch man
you guys don't want to get manga in Saudi arabia it's super hard to get something cheap since everything is 3 times pricer
I wish i couldve started collecting manga before the series got so popular when i first started i bought volumes 6 and 7 of my hero academia then i started watching the anime totally forgot collecting the rest of the series now it has 34 volumes damn my advice buy a newer series that is shorter chainsawman is the easiest to get trust me.
my library has no manga :(
Time to move
Ajin & horimiya & grand blue
I was really intimidated by One Piece when I first started due to its length and put it off forever. I really wish I had just jumped right in. The length is more manageable than it appears. Now collecting all of those is a different thing. My poor wallet...
Save money by getting the box sets
DARK HORSE STUFF GOES OUT OF PRINT. That is my big warning
Same with Seven Seas and Yen Press
Oh too late, started in late October and I have a decent haul....
Then again my first manga I got was in my first year in middle school which was in 2012, Naruto volume 55(still have it)
No library
Collecting? Just read what you feel you will enjoy. Don't buy the whole collection of a certain manga, be it One Piece because of the covers or colorful spines or Death Note for the attractiveness in it's box. I do like Dead Dead Demon. I saved 9 of 10 volumes. I did not like where the series was going with Vol 10 so I donated to library. I have about 7 of One Piece because of the art work. I am rereadiing Bakuman. If I like it, I'll buy the indvl. volumes. I bailed out on Hunter x Hunter after vol. 2. Advice: Don't be a completist. Many viewers get "bookshelf envy" when watching youtube influencers. When you or daddy has to put together a bookshelf or run out of room in the childs bedroom then that will tell you where to begin and stop.
Collected all 74 volumes of bleach. Wallet go brr
Box sets don’t hurt the wallet as much
My hero academia its soo good
def dororhedoro
Aot or demon slayer
Libya
Tokyo Revengers, cuz it’s so damn good
Us
First step- Move to US
To anyone who's collecting Manga, I wish you all best of luck collecting one piece haha.
p.s: It's not sarcastic at all I promise.
As a Californian, all I have to do is place a backorder for any of the box sets and wait
😊😅😮😢🎉😂❤
“sees digital manga”
*laughs in mangadex*
