Love the manga, love the anime. Just come back already Togashi!! This current arc could easily become my favorite one. I just want my 10 more chapters, dammit
You should see my drawer full of vizbigs I've already replaced haha. I have like 6 on the shelf I need to replace and I have like 7 more in a drawer that I've already replaced. It's honestly god awful quality control on the glue binding. I promise I'm not man handling these books haha
@@konankid2340 well, yes, but american money is worth more. Anyways, I did the base math, as a Canadian. Here, manga are usually around $12 CAD, so at the very minimum, from the base line the creator of the video gave of 1250 manga, let's say it's 12 × 1250. That's equivalent to *$15,000 CAD. If I were to convert it, that would be roughly $11,000 USD.* I have a few dozen manga, and it does add up, but wow.

It’s coming out in about half a month anyway, though the Re:Zero anime still has a Long Long way to go before it’s done, even the web novel is just over half way complete and it’s on it’s 463rd ridiculously long chapter
Haha thank you! No promises, I don't really feel like much of a video maker. The only thing I have in mind is making an updated collection video every 6 months or so, so i can see how my collection changes and grows a
It really is. I've actually only watched the anime (oopsie), but Yona had some of the absolute best character development and progression I've seen. Not only that, but I remember absolutely loving the dynamic between Hak and Yona, and I absolutely love how Su-Won is seemingly the primary antagonist, but as the series progresses (at least to where i got)his actions can seem somewhat justified. Man, after talking about it I may just have to finally pick up the books and get past where the anime left off
Well, I promise I don't manhandle them haha. Maybe in recent time Viz has gotten better? Or maybe I just have terrible luck? Either way I'm glad you don't have to fork out a ridiculous amount of money all things considered just to get a volume that doesn't fall apart.
I'm a simple man. I hear a bunch of jojo praise, i collect the series. I really need to get around to like.... reading that series though. but its sooooo long
i love this collection! usually when i watch manga tours the women usually just have romance or slice of life with jjba for a little bit of spice and the guys don't have shoujo or anything like it with the exception of your name (which i can't really hate on because obviously they buy what they want to read) but you seem to have a good mix of everything!
@@Kymmru :O Yes! Yes! Yes! The series really gets better part after part in both art plot and stands hehe. Its nice seeing someone else w same intrests thats why i found this vid rlly cool :>
I have a big list but some of them include 20th Century Boys Berserk Hunter x Hunter Vagabond Monster One Piece Kaguya-sama: Love is War Attack on Titan Domestic Girlfriend Blue Spring Ride That list isn't really in any particular order but when I was thinking of favorite those are some series that come to mind.
Kymmru Man, I’ve read only four of those, but they are definitely among my all time favorites, so I’ll catch up on the rest as soon as I get a chance. Thanks for sharing this list!
Man this collection has me drooling! I only have 10 so far with very limited space so your collection is a dream! Love all the titles btw you have amazing taste 👌
I've been collecting for over 5 years now, probably even closer to 10 in all honesty. Its okay if a collection starts out small, everyone's does, and it doesnt grow overnight. As long as your passion for anime and manga stays with you over the years I'm sure your collection will look like mine half a decade from now
@@yum396 it's a good start, One Piece is a great series! However, if you want to collect all of One Piece in the long run, I'd highly recommend saving up the money for the box sets. I know it can be a lot of money at once, but if you plan to collect it all eventually it will save you money in the long run. Plus you get some neat bonuses
It would be great if you made a series of videos recommending manga, or just talking about it! In any case I'm excited to see how the collection evolves during time, great vid
I absolutely loved it. When I first got it, I bought the first 3 volumes and read them nonstop. I bought the rest immediately after, but couldn't wait for them to come in so I stayed up till like 4am to read the rest online which I hate doing.
Spoilers for those who didn't read it Firstly, I was interested in the anime, cause it looked very different. But never watched it. Then I came across the manga and said "heck, I'm gonna read this". The first half (his childhood revolving in that town) was pretty weird to me, like I was asking myself "wtf am I reading?" but the drama and all those cliffhangers at the end of every chapter made me go on. It was then that the second half (moving out of the town, high school) really did it for me. If it wasn't for that 2nd half, I've have considered that manga trash, but I'm so glad I kept reading it. That ending is sooo good.
bro the day kingdom gets published in english all of my savings are going down the drain lol. And I also partially agree with you on the berserk deluxe editions, I have 2 of them and compared to the normal volumes they just supersized it with good paper quality. I still think it's a good release though, seeing as they cost like the same as 3 normal volumes so the value is at least good.
Yeah with the Deluxe Editions I really wished for a new translation, better scan quality, some color pages. I feel as though Dark Horse is going to release Volumes 12,13,14 in the Deluxe Editions as is with their absolutely terrible way of translating SFX with the SFX literally covering some of the art. Just thinking about it peeves me so much. They are still the definitive way to collect Berserk now though without a doubt. And yeah, I really realllllly don't understand why English publishers are sleeping on Kingdom. It's constantly one of the highest-selling manga in Japan and I constantly see so much interest from English fans.
one of my favorite manga to read lately is called “Ryuko” it’s a 2 volume series meaning it’s short but I really enjoy it, I re read it a bunch of times, it’s very underrated I hope more people check it out
I went ahead and put it on my wishlist, no promises I will check it out though. Although given its only two volumes so I may be inclined to just buy them in next months haul and get around to it eventually.
This is the best organised manga/ln library I have ever seen. It just feels so pleasing to the eye, and not to be weird or anything, but paired with your soothing voice just makes this video extremely mesmerising.
I have a collection of about 50 books which costed me about 400 quid. So if I just use my stash as an example then it’d be 25 x 400= 10,000. All in all he’s probably spent about 10 grand on it, could be higher or lower, take my estimation with a pinch of salt. (Might I also add I calculated it in pound Sterling , and as I’ve recent found out manga is slightly cheap in the uk).
I feel the same exact way about Kingdom, it is my favorite, really wish they had it out in English. I've only read about 5-6 mangas. Currently reading Berserk now, I'm on the first deluxe edition.
I haven't even read Kingdom yet cause I'm holding out on an English release. With how big it is, it really doesn't make sense why there's no English release yet.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I remember the first vizbig that fell apart on me. I think it was volume 2 of Vagabond. I was in the middle of reading it and it just collapsed in my hands.
I mean, yeah. I don't read or speak Japanese, but you don't have to in order to see some glaring issues with Dark Horse's release. www.skullknight.net/images/gambino-print.jpg I mean that is a pinnacle example of it. Dark Horse, a multimillion-dollar company failed to scan pages of comics correctly. And when they released it in a "deluxe" edition they leave the same glaring issues. A company as big as Dark Horse shouldn't be fucking up that bad where you lose that much detail in panels, it's laughable. And there are other issues too, like this: imgur.com/le8ZnWj Dark Horse implementing one of the worst ways I have ever seen a manga company translate SFXs- covering up Miura's art with giant boxes like that. And again when they had a chance to fix it in a "deluxe" edition they just leave it as is. And then when it comes to the translation, yeah some things haven't aged the best. I mean Band of the Hawk was always supposed to be Band of the Falcon. Griffith has always been symbolised as a Falcon, but the translation always leaned to Hawk. And then halfway through the series they start cherry-picking which stuff to translate to falcon, and which to hawk. I mean at the start of the 4th arc they were translating the title to Hawk of the Millenium Empire, and then after a few chapters, they started to translate it to Falcon of the Millenium Empire, leaving the inconsistencies in the manga. And then there are little things like leaving beherit in as " behelit." It's just the tiny things that add up over time and make me realize if they did even a little bit of research or cared a lot of my grievances wouldn't exist. Mind you though I don't think the translations are neccessarily bad, but almost every single "deluxe" edition in recent time has done updated translations but Dark Horse chooses the easy way out of throwing the pdfs of the series they already have into bigger format.
Kymmru I completely agree with you, berserk is my favorite series and while it doesn’t kill the story or anything and luckily they leave the art as is, it’s like hawk or falcon just pick one and stick to it it’s not that hard. I know it’s wrong and for the english audience but at least zoro is zolo the whole time in the english manga of one piece but yeah for such a great series berserk deserves better. Also thanks for the info because I own the whole berserk series too and I was about to pick up the deluxe’s.
@Midgetwithahacksaw good idea, I heard that miura’s preferred format for his manga is 8x10 so I think that’s the way to go but I already owned the series when the deluxe’s came out
@@jasonrinaldi1670 well, to be fair, all those issues exist in the singles too. In the end the deluxe edition is still a gorgeous hardcover and the two-page spreads have never looked better.
Wow I love to watch ppls manga sets It’s kinda cool idk y Idk if u have reviewed like ALL ur manga that would be cool to see ur POV on how much u like it and the plot(I’m trying to build my own manga collection but I’m still in skl and have little money) Anyways do u have any manga recommendations, things that stood out to u???
I think my top 5 manga always stays the same and I'd recommend to any and all readers. 1. 20th Century Boys 2. Berserk 3. Hunter x Hunter 4. Vagabond 5. Monster
Kymmru sorry this reply is late but hunter x Hunter is amazing as an anime and manga and I also can’t wait to get it. Can’t wait to get a collection like urs 1 day😄
@@lilzem I just can't wait for Togashi to release more chapters!! This current arc (I won't say much in case if you've only watched the anime) is so damn interesting! It has me so gripped and I count on 10 chapters a year at least and without it I feel like a junkie in a withdrawal lol
Kymmru I have almost caught up with the latest chapter. The arc doesn’t interest me that much to be honest however I am looking forward to see what happens next. Also recently I was reading AOT and I was so surprised at what Eren did so do u think it will end as a disaster for him? I am honestly so sad cause after all his hard work he just flushed it down the toilet as though it were 💩. It’s so sad!!!
@@lilzem Dang really!??? This has easily been my favorite arc in Hunter x Hunter history, it's just sad it has such a slow release. And I honestly feel AOT is going to end in tragedy of some sort at least. But I guess we will have to wait to find out
Wow... just wow. Awesome video. Just purchased my 100th manga into my own collection LoL gotta start somewhere. Half of the manga in my collection I've read online but as you quickly stated in your video: "I want to support the authors." Which is why I am purchasing alot of manga ive already finished in the past. Also I feel they're timeless relics and hopefully my future kids will get into it and maybe even add to the collection themselves
Sick collection, I've recently started collecting and your collection is an inspiration. Wish you would make more videos, maybe become a mangatuber. Anyway great video and collection and keep it up!
I'll definitely keep that in mind, thank you! I plan to do an update eventually. With a lot of comments like yours it really gives me the motivation to at least give it a shot, if only to discuss my hobby with a bunch of other people with the same hobby
Honestly, I think current Attack on Titan is a modern masterpiece. Maybe the first little bit is slightly overrated but I think it was neccessary to build the story that Isayama has created
i dont really understand. what do you mean "even tho" ? it's true that a lot of crap is popular but, most of the time, it's because something is good that it's popular isnt it ?
TG 125 6 chapters left, but I do think it will be a shocking, hopefully good finale. SPOILER👇🏻 I don’t care if everyone dies, I just want Levi to kill Zeke before it ends.
I have IKEA Billy Bookcases. Highly recommend. They are nice, expandable up to I think 6 or 7 shelves, are deep enough to double stack. Sturdy. I feel they are the best bookcases for collections. The other cheaper ones are cheap for a reason, everything else seems too expensive.
Yes! I actually tend to watch more anime than I read manga. I collect more manga than anime though. Usually, for me, it goes something like this 1. Watch a good anime 2. Find out its source material is a manga or a light novel 3. Collect that source material 4. No source material? Collect the anime 5. The anime improves upon the manga? (which i find to be exceedingly rare), collect the anime for it as well. I always hope anime get perfect adaptation (i.e. Kimetsu no Yaiba) because anime just ends up being more accessible and will usually bring a series to the popularity it deserves, or let the series die if it's done poorly.
i rather see a 1 hour video of you explaining every little detail, why you own it and why you like it of all manga that you own than a 10 min video just showing your collection
Thank you! And yeah one of my biggest peeves in manga collection videos are people going off-topic and taking forever to get to the point. I try to cut out all the BS and let the comments be the place to talk about series.
When did u begin collecting manga ? I would like to get into collecting LN/Manga too but they are damn expensive with shipping from Japan. I want the original pieces that's why from Japan.
I started to collect manga I believe 8 years ago? I started with Naruto 3in1s because that was nearly about the only anime I watched and I loved it, afterwards came Death Note 2in1s and everything came trickling in from there. Personally speaking I wouldn't recommend collecting Japanese volumes unless if you can read them just because unlike a lot of other collecting hobbies, manga typically doesn't grow in value although theres always exceptions. Then again that's just my opinion and you can do whatever you wish
Here's a tip from me: I personally never asked for permission - I bought mangas with my pocket money and put them in my desk drawer and later on a shelf. It took them a few years to find out that I had some mangas. Then I said I had gotten it from my friends over the years ;D
I'm just starting off my manga collection, I always just borrowed manga from a library before covid (for the most part) so now that I have to purchase it I am finding out it is actually really existing to own the books yourself, I hope one day I can have a awesome collection now so that's what made me click the video
When did you start collecting manga and stuff? I started pretty recently and every time I see another person’s collection I feel like I have shit taste lol 😂
It's been nearly a decade like I believe it's been 8 years? I collected before I got a job with the small amount of allowance I got and then I wanted to get a job specifically to collect more manga. And it's all right, everyone's tastes change and grow
@@Kymmru hi, i'm planning to start collecting manga, how do you recommend me ti start, collecting severa volumes of one particular series or a few volumes of multiple series?. Thank you in advance
The way he says that you have to read or watch Hunter x Hunter “if you haven’t experienced either the manga or the anime you’re doing yourself a disservice” It’s adorable
Dang fella, impressive collection. I find it funny whenever I go through these videos that I realize I’ve only read about 2%, so far I’ve only read from my personal best to least: Elfin Lied, Komi Can’t Communicate, Rent-A-Girlfriend, 5 centimeters per second, and Tomie.
I've been loving Rent-A-Girlfriend so much. I absolutely despised it at first, I actually dropped it which I almost never ever drop series. But then the anime came out and I gave it another chance and I fell in love and caught up to the manga within a couple of days.
coming from someone who also collects manga and anime you're collection good sir is incredible and it makes me want to work more hours so I can achieve something like this
Love Urusawa. One of my favorites, and so good at making you turn the page. His series manben is really fascinating if you want to see the process many creators take. Awesome collection!
Wow dude. That's the most impressive and best manga collection I have ever seen. I already have a little "collection" of idk like 150-200? But damn you really inspired me with that to start collecting for real now haha Thanks to you, I found out about box sets and went on to order the 2nd one for One Piece on Amazon, but unfortunately it's not German and the shipping would take for ever... Damnit. I'm still gonna start now, thanks for the inspiration and keep going, maybe a little update video at the end of the year or in a few months? Would be awesome. I subbed, great stuff man!
Thank you! And just take everything in stride, I collect what I can, but budgets are important to collecting too. I mean I've been steadily building this collection for nearly a decade now so it doesn't come overnight. Box sets are definitely a great way to collect long or completed series, but damn that sucks its not readily available, but hey if the shipping doesn't cost too much and you can read English fluently, I say why not just order it and itll come in when it comes in. And Right now I'm thinking about posting a video in June. I honestly don't know how much more manga I've gotten, but I've been thinking in my head doing a collection video every 6 months would be a good way for me to look back on my collection to see how it grows from here onwards.
@@Kymmru I can pretty much read English fluently yeah, but I'm not really sure if it would be the same feeling for me and be just as good. But I think I'll buy it even though they have a different Cover colour, just because I can save money through them and they are just the best way for series like one Piece like you said. And yeah, I would love that Idea of posting a progress video every few months, would be very interesting! Also I could see and compare how much my collection has grown in that time, I would really love it! And again, thanks for the inspiration, I now started to also focus on different series I normally wouldn't have picked up, 2 or 3 days ago I picked 2 Volumes for the price of one, it was a great deal and I was happy to save some money hahaa. It was the manga called "Arslan", it's from the same Mangaka that also made Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood. Have you probably read or heard about it and do you think it's good? I haven't read it yet I still have some other things like the last two Vinland Saga volumes that are out, but I will start reading that soon :D
Lol I know. I don't get why so many people take their time on manga vids. I just want to the COLLECTION, not the opinions. haha. I feel nearly alone in that
You are putting alot of us manga collectors to shame, but i can say i am proud of having read about all of the stuff shown in the video, except for Naruto and Dragon Ball that i have to get into sometime
here just to try to find manga unknown to me and check the different releases, liked the quickness and no bullshit waste of time, also never saw no one talking of those defects on hardcover like vagabond, nice to know, earned a sub.
"I treat them very nicely" *proceeds to flip and hold up the book in unusual manner, then drop it.* lol. But I agree the spine glue is bad. I had to reapply glue on a couple of them (Not as bad as yours mind you) and they still hold up. I see a lot of other paperback large omnibus / 3-1 having the same issue. Ideally this should be a hardcover similar to Berserk Deluxe Edition, It's too many pages for a paperback. It's a reason they are cheaper compared to single volumes (granted Vagabond and other VIZBIGs are OOP). I think 2-in-1 is the sweetspot for paperback with Monster / 20th Century Boys as examples. Great collection man!
@@Kymmru I understand. I just looked like you casually yeheeted it open like that. But it is wierd they break on ypu like that. I have 13 vizbigs and they are all great. Never heard of others that had that problem, at least to that exctent.
@@Yunhotrash Yeah, it sucks man. I just got 6 more VIzbigs yesterday and 2 of the 6 already tore at the spine. I was trying to replace 3 Vagabond volumes and 3 ruruoni kenshin volumes and 2 of the Kenshin volumes glue already separated from the spine almost like that Vagabond volume. Sigh, hopefully after i get these last two kenshin volumes replaced I don't have to bother with vizbigs for a long while cause this has been a terrible experience for me thus far.
Damn what a cool collection! I could only dream of having one like this! I stopped collecting like 12 years ago and am slowly back to it. The new SJ logo bothers me though because I have some older volumes from death note, naruto one piece etc that just look out of place with the newer prints.
Awesome collection and video. It was much better structured than my own haha. A couple of remarks: 1. There are a lot of series that you flew straight over, and I would love to hear a brief opinion on them. I know that it would increase the runtime, but a quick insight would help a lot. Especially since the few insights you gave, was very interesting. 2. You show some gripes with some of the series. Will you make separate videos on the matter? Eg Berserk? Otherwise, keep it up. A lot of your series, is something I'm planning on getting myself down the line, so I'm interested on all the info you give is appreciated :)
Thank you! 1. If you want to ask about any opinions or insights about any series I'll be happy to answer them here. 2. Idk if I'll make any separate videos like that. And just so I'm clear, I don't have any gripes with Berserk itself, its one of my favorite series of all time. I do however take extreme issue with how Dark Horse is treating its "Deluxe" editions.
@@Kymmru I'll have to watch the video again later to sum up the series. As for berserk, I kinda got the gist, that it was Dark Horses version of that you didn't like, not the series it self 😉 But specifically the deluxe edition. Could you elaborate on what grinds your gears with them?
@@Daidarius Sorry for the late reply, but most definitely! Now for most deluxe editions from what I've seen try to add something to the series that didn't exist before. New translations, new scans, color pages, high-quality paper. The Deluxe edition of Berserk gets none of that. Dark Horse just takes their original scans of Berserk and just slaps it in an oversized volume. Don't get me wrong, that is a nice hardcover edition, but as a "Deluxe" edition there is so much more that could have been done, ESPECIALLY for the price they are asking for. Battle Angel Alita costs roughly the same per page and it got new scans (I believe), it's printed on photocopy paper, new translations, color pages. There are some pretty poor scans in the early Berserk volumes ( www.skullknight.net/images/gambino-print.jpg ) which is a prime example (If youtube allows me to post links.) The paper quality in these releases is nothing to ride home about. I mean I think they are better than the original, but personally, I would have preferred a photocopy type paper like the Battle Angel Alita, Gundam the Origin, and Fullmetal Alchemist Fullmetal Editions. There are color pages that were originally released in the publication of Berserk that could have been included. In hindsight the translation could be updated, a prime example being behelit is actually Beherit, or that the translation is closer to a falcon of light instead of hawk of light. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE SOUND EFFECTS DURING VOLUMES 12-14. These volumes have LITERALLY the absolute WORST way of translation sound effects I have EVER seen in manga. They are giant blocks that get in the way of the artwork during one of the MOST important moments. in the bare minimum, they could have rescanned those THREE volumes in order to fix those terrible SFX, but instead, they leave it in. I'm sorry to post a wall of text, but Berserk is one of my favorite series in all mediums and I hate to see this "Deluxe" edition just be a cash grab

Man, after talking about it I may just have to finally pick up the books and get past where the anime left off
Damn I have 9 vagabond vizbigs and have never had any trouble like that.
Well, I promise I don't manhandle them haha. Maybe in recent time Viz has gotten better? Or maybe I just have terrible luck? Either way I'm glad you don't have to fork out a ridiculous amount of money all things considered just to get a volume that doesn't fall apart.
@@Kymmru lol no I just started collecting vagabond and the book quickly rots :/ love the artwork displayed when put together tho!
Oh man that Vagabond volume broke my heart 😔
Great collection. A lot of good stuff
It always breaks my heart when I'm reading a VizBig and feel the binding come undone. And thank you!
I'm a simple man: i see jojo, i click.
I'm a simple man. I hear a bunch of jojo praise, i collect the series. I really need to get around to like.... reading that series though. but its sooooo long

ehhh, I don't really like reading manga through a screen though. plus it doesn't have that same feel
@@Kymmru well I wish I could buy manga but they aren't sold in my country
And they're pretty expensive online (+ taxes as well)
@@Kymmru yeah it really hurts the eyes when on screen

Hey, if you do the IKEA Billy cases are real nice
he can’t get bored in quarantine, it’s not scientifically possible
Exact opposite Lmao. He doesn't have anything exciting anymore to read. He prolly read all of these already.
@@FaktusKaktus with the amount of books he probably forgot many series’s and re-reading would be fun

That seems to be a slight trend based on the comments haha
@@Kymmru u like it tho? Best part is 7 btw u should read it
Good video man, I am so glad you mentioned the berserk omnibus quality, it sucks ,I am glad I am not the only one who thinks that
Very nice manga collection I like how it's set up
Thank you! I try and keep everything organized
i love this collection! usually when i watch manga tours the women usually just have romance or slice of life with jjba for a little bit of spice and the guys don't have shoujo or anything like it with the exception of your name (which i can't really hate on because obviously they buy what they want to read) but you seem to have a good mix of everything!
4:00 i was waiting for this
He needs the other parts rn
@@nkyiem when they come out in english ill get them
@@Kymmru :O Yes! Yes! Yes!
The series really gets better part after part in both art plot and stands hehe. Its nice seeing someone else w same intrests thats why i found this vid rlly cool :>
I have vol 1 vagabond and now I'm scared to read it 😅 I'll have to gently read so it won't tear
I feel like I'm just unlucky, but yeah I'd still recommend reading vizbigs with extra caution
Same with my Naruto Volume 16
I got 1-5 and they are in perfect condition. He might’ve gotten unlucky
U should do a "favorite mangá" video, or just tell me right away
I have a big list but some of them include
20th Century Boys
Berserk
Hunter x Hunter
Vagabond
Monster
One Piece
Kaguya-sama: Love is War
Attack on Titan
Domestic Girlfriend
Blue Spring Ride
That list isn't really in any particular order but when I was thinking of favorite those are some series that come to mind.
@@Kymmru good taste 😌 people will say some of those titles were overrated... but they are overrated for a reason!
@@boshvasara Thank you! and I agree. I would also add Goodnight Punpun onto that list cause I recently read that and oh man what an experience.
Kymmru first time i see a list with kaguya sama. You’ve got my respect dude
Kymmru Man, I’ve read only four of those, but they are definitely among my all time favorites, so I’ll catch up on the rest as soon as I get a chance. Thanks for sharing this list!
Man this collection has me drooling! I only have 10 so far with very limited space so your collection is a dream! Love all the titles btw you have amazing taste 👌
Awesome collection i’m growing mine still hopefully it will get as big as yours one day
I've been collecting for over 5 years now, probably even closer to 10 in all honesty. Its okay if a collection starts out small, everyone's does, and it doesnt grow overnight. As long as your passion for anime and manga stays with you over the years I'm sure your collection will look like mine half a decade from now
My collection is One Piece 1-3
:/
@@yum396 it's a good start, One Piece is a great series! However, if you want to collect all of One Piece in the long run, I'd highly recommend saving up the money for the box sets. I know it can be a lot of money at once, but if you plan to collect it all eventually it will save you money in the long run. Plus you get some neat bonuses
Yep me too :)
we really need more manga friendly bookshelves. it pains me when you have to split a series and stack half of the books in a shelf below it
Ehhhh, I'm not allll that bothered by it. I definitely think as of now the Billy Bookcases from IKEA is the best we can get.
I've been collecting for a couple of years now and the fact that the bookshelf I chose is the one you're using gives me hope.
Also amazing collection!
You sir, have picked a good bookshelf. And thank you!
It would be great if you made a series of videos recommending manga, or just talking about it! In any case I'm excited to see how the collection evolves during time, great vid
You definitely should keep going in JoJo it gets really good especially in part 7
As long as they release the volumes in english, I will keep picking it up
@@Kymmru right now the part 4 official English manga is being released!
@@professoryeetus8955 yes it is that'd why I am collecting it
This is the best collection I’ve seen every manga series you have is on my list lol
5:00 when he said a silent voice, i started getting flashbacks of me crying in the bathroom for an hour after watching it.
Such a great story man
3:46 Flowers Of Evil
I absolutely loved it. When I first got it, I bought the first 3 volumes and read them nonstop. I bought the rest immediately after, but couldn't wait for them to come in so I stayed up till like 4am to read the rest online which I hate doing.
Spoilers for those who didn't read it
Firstly, I was interested in the anime, cause it looked very different. But never watched it. Then I came across the manga and said "heck, I'm gonna read this". The first half (his childhood revolving in that town) was pretty weird to me, like I was asking myself "wtf am I reading?" but the drama and all those cliffhangers at the end of every chapter made me go on. It was then that the second half (moving out of the town, high school) really did it for me. If it wasn't for that 2nd half, I've have considered that manga trash, but I'm so glad I kept reading it. That ending is sooo good.
bro the day kingdom gets published in english all of my savings are going down the drain lol. And I also partially agree with you on the berserk deluxe editions, I have 2 of them and compared to the normal volumes they just supersized it with good paper quality. I still think it's a good release though, seeing as they cost like the same as 3 normal volumes so the value is at least good.
Yeah with the Deluxe Editions I really wished for a new translation, better scan quality, some color pages. I feel as though Dark Horse is going to release Volumes 12,13,14 in the Deluxe Editions as is with their absolutely terrible way of translating SFX with the SFX literally covering some of the art. Just thinking about it peeves me so much. They are still the definitive way to collect Berserk now though without a doubt. And yeah, I really realllllly don't understand why English publishers are sleeping on Kingdom. It's constantly one of the highest-selling manga in Japan and I constantly see so much interest from English fans.
I liked that you were fast reviewing your collection
Thank you! I always prefer a faster pace collection video so I just took inspiration from that
one of my favorite manga to read lately is called “Ryuko” it’s a 2 volume series meaning it’s short but I really enjoy it, I re read it a bunch of times, it’s very underrated I hope more people check it out
I went ahead and put it on my wishlist, no promises I will check it out though. Although given its only two volumes so I may be inclined to just buy them in next months haul and get around to it eventually.
@Kymmru no worries, hopefully you’ll enjoy it
This is the best organised manga/ln library I have ever seen. It just feels so pleasing to the eye, and not to be weird or anything, but paired with your soothing voice just makes this video extremely mesmerising.
How much did that cost?! I really want to have such a collection too but it is just to damn expensive...
I haven't kept track. I know it adds up, but I've been collecting for nearly a decade now
I have a collection of about 50 books which costed me about 400 quid. So if I just use my stash as an example then it’d be 25 x 400= 10,000. All in all he’s probably spent about 10 grand on it, could be higher or lower, take my estimation with a pinch of salt. (Might I also add I calculated it in pound Sterling , and as I’ve recent found out manga is slightly cheap in the uk).
Kunio Saiki i have a collection of 120 volumes and it costed 85e
Wiley_79
I have no idea what 85e is, what currency is that?
Kunio Saiki oh sorry that's how we talk in finland, umm i meant €
This is what i call a real MAN OF CULTURE.
Didn't expect to see The Empty Box and Zeroth Maria, love that series
I feel the same exact way about Kingdom, it is my favorite, really wish they had it out in English. I've only read about 5-6 mangas. Currently reading Berserk now, I'm on the first deluxe edition.
I haven't even read Kingdom yet cause I'm holding out on an English release. With how big it is, it really doesn't make sense why there's no English release yet.
Dude, you’re right about the viz bigs. You can treat it so delicately to the point where you barely read it and it still breaks apart
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I remember the first vizbig that fell apart on me. I think it was volume 2 of Vagabond. I was in the middle of reading it and it just collapsed in my hands.
I can't wait to move out snd spend wll my money on manga and light novels
Shoot, I get to spend more of my money on manga and light novels living with my parents than on my own. Rent and bills are expensive lol
@@Kymmru My parents think I'm some sort of creep for reading manga, it's better if I move out 😂
That’s insane dude nice collection
Thank you!
This is a whole library of mangas😤❤
I'm speechless👏👏
Haha thank you! that's been my goal from the beginning of the collection
I loved No Longer Human (the book), and I love Junji Ito’s art. I didn’t know he did an adaptation. You made me happy today
I have yet to read Junji Ito's version of it, but I'm sure its great
Kymmru: “I don’t care about reading manga in japanese”
Also Kymmru: “the scans and translations were bad in berserk” 😂😂
I mean, yeah. I don't read or speak Japanese, but you don't have to in order to see some glaring issues with Dark Horse's release.
www.skullknight.net/images/gambino-print.jpg
I mean that is a pinnacle example of it. Dark Horse, a multimillion-dollar company failed to scan pages of comics correctly. And when they released it in a "deluxe" edition they leave the same glaring issues. A company as big as Dark Horse shouldn't be fucking up that bad where you lose that much detail in panels, it's laughable.
And there are other issues too, like this: imgur.com/le8ZnWj
Dark Horse implementing one of the worst ways I have ever seen a manga company translate SFXs- covering up Miura's art with giant boxes like that. And again when they had a chance to fix it in a "deluxe" edition they just leave it as is.
And then when it comes to the translation, yeah some things haven't aged the best. I mean Band of the Hawk was always supposed to be Band of the Falcon. Griffith has always been symbolised as a Falcon, but the translation always leaned to Hawk. And then halfway through the series they start cherry-picking which stuff to translate to falcon, and which to hawk. I mean at the start of the 4th arc they were translating the title to Hawk of the Millenium Empire, and then after a few chapters, they started to translate it to Falcon of the Millenium Empire, leaving the inconsistencies in the manga. And then there are little things like leaving beherit in as " behelit."
It's just the tiny things that add up over time and make me realize if they did even a little bit of research or cared a lot of my grievances wouldn't exist. Mind you though I don't think the translations are neccessarily bad, but almost every single "deluxe" edition in recent time has done updated translations but Dark Horse chooses the easy way out of throwing the pdfs of the series they already have into bigger format.
Kymmru I completely agree with you, berserk is my favorite series and while it doesn’t kill the story or anything and luckily they leave the art as is, it’s like hawk or falcon just pick one and stick to it it’s not that hard. I know it’s wrong and for the english audience but at least zoro is zolo the whole time in the english manga of one piece but yeah for such a great series berserk deserves better. Also thanks for the info because I own the whole berserk series too and I was about to pick up the deluxe’s.
@@jasonrinaldi1670 I don't own Berserk so I am collecting the deluxe editions. Plus, they are fairly nice in quality.
@Midgetwithahacksaw good idea, I heard that miura’s preferred format for his manga is 8x10 so I think that’s the way to go but I already owned the series when the deluxe’s came out
@@jasonrinaldi1670 well, to be fair, all those issues exist in the singles too. In the end the deluxe edition is still a gorgeous hardcover and the two-page spreads have never looked better.
Dude, you are an absolute madlad! i respecc your dedication for collecting mangas
thank you!
Wow I love to watch ppls manga sets
It’s kinda cool idk y
Idk if u have reviewed like ALL ur manga that would be cool to see ur POV on how much u like it and the plot(I’m trying to build my own manga collection but I’m still in skl and have little money)
Anyways do u have any manga recommendations, things that stood out to u???
I think my top 5 manga always stays the same and I'd recommend to any and all readers.
1. 20th Century Boys
2. Berserk
3. Hunter x Hunter
4. Vagabond
5. Monster
Kymmru sorry this reply is late but hunter x Hunter is amazing as an anime and manga and I also can’t wait to get it. Can’t wait to get a collection like urs 1 day😄
@@lilzem I just can't wait for Togashi to release more chapters!! This current arc (I won't say much in case if you've only watched the anime) is so damn interesting! It has me so gripped and I count on 10 chapters a year at least and without it I feel like a junkie in a withdrawal lol
Kymmru I have almost caught up with the latest chapter. The arc doesn’t interest me that much to be honest however I am looking forward to see what happens next. Also recently I was reading AOT and I was so surprised at what Eren did so do u think it will end as a disaster for him? I am honestly so sad cause after all his hard work he just flushed it down the toilet as though it were 💩. It’s so sad!!!
@@lilzem Dang really!??? This has easily been my favorite arc in Hunter x Hunter history, it's just sad it has such a slow release.
And I honestly feel AOT is going to end in tragedy of some sort at least. But I guess we will have to wait to find out
Wow... just wow. Awesome video. Just purchased my 100th manga into my own collection LoL gotta start somewhere. Half of the manga in my collection I've read online but as you quickly stated in your video: "I want to support the authors." Which is why I am purchasing alot of manga ive already finished in the past. Also I feel they're timeless relics and hopefully my future kids will get into it and maybe even add to the collection themselves
2:20 my heart went 📉
Sick collection, I've recently started collecting and your collection is an inspiration. Wish you would make more videos, maybe become a mangatuber. Anyway great video and collection and keep it up!
I'll definitely keep that in mind, thank you! I plan to do an update eventually. With a lot of comments like yours it really gives me the motivation to at least give it a shot, if only to discuss my hobby with a bunch of other people with the same hobby
I see JoJo I click
That has definitely been a trend I have noticed
Holy shit, awesome collection and good choices.
Thank you!
this guy is the definition of "read the manga it's better"
I meannnnnn, yeah. There are few exceptions where I think the anime exceeds the source material. Way too many anime cut out way too many scenes imo
It was straight forward to the content
Love it :)
I am sure that someone thought of removing the intestines to make an internal library to store their volumes of jojos
I swear by dio brando
I mean I am sure reading online would work for those people too, but hey to each their own
woah nice, i liked the demon slayer and berserk ones the most. Almost the first time i've seen someone have the claymore manga lol
What are your opinions on the attack on titan manga??
I personally think it’s amazing even tho it’s insanely popular.
Honestly, I think current Attack on Titan is a modern masterpiece. Maybe the first little bit is slightly overrated but I think it was neccessary to build the story that Isayama has created
i dont really understand. what do you mean "even tho" ? it's true that a lot of crap is popular but, most of the time, it's because something is good that it's popular isnt it ?
Attack on titan only needs to land its ending to soldify its masterpice status
TG 125 6 chapters left, but I do think it will be a shocking, hopefully good finale.
SPOILER👇🏻
I don’t care if everyone dies, I just want Levi to kill Zeke before it ends.
I went with your recommendation and read Quintessential Quintuplets. Thanks man, I loved it.
I'm really glad to hear it! It was insane reading it weekly for that last stretch of publication lol. So many people were upset during that time
What kind of bookcases did you have? I want to find one that’s tall and deep to double stack my manga into also nice collection
I have IKEA Billy Bookcases. Highly recommend. They are nice, expandable up to I think 6 or 7 shelves, are deep enough to double stack. Sturdy. I feel they are the best bookcases for collections. The other cheaper ones are cheap for a reason, everything else seems too expensive.
WOAH, that’s one of the best collections I’ve ever seen.
thank you!
So im just making an observation but, you like manga alot... But do you watch alot of anime too?
Yes! I actually tend to watch more anime than I read manga. I collect more manga than anime though. Usually, for me, it goes something like this
1. Watch a good anime
2. Find out its source material is a manga or a light novel
3. Collect that source material
4. No source material? Collect the anime
5. The anime improves upon the manga? (which i find to be exceedingly rare), collect the anime for it as well.
I always hope anime get perfect adaptation (i.e. Kimetsu no Yaiba) because anime just ends up being more accessible and will usually bring a series to the popularity it deserves, or let the series die if it's done poorly.
i rather see a 1 hour video of you explaining every little detail, why you own it and why you like it of all manga that you own than a 10 min video just showing your collection
Yeah, I can get that, but thats just my style. If you have any specific questions I'll be happy to try and respond though
damn I'm jealous. That's a sexy manga collection
haha thank you
I clicked because I knew I'd see some of Naoki Urasawa's works. He's my favorite. Also, your collection is awesome.
Did u read every single one of these?
I've read quite a lot of them, but I still have a lot more to go
Nice video man
Like how fast and right to the point you got in what you wanted to say/show
I'm now subscribed 🐔
Thank you! And yeah one of my biggest peeves in manga collection videos are people going off-topic and taking forever to get to the point. I try to cut out all the BS and let the comments be the place to talk about series.
When did u begin collecting manga ? I would like to get into collecting LN/Manga too but they are damn expensive with shipping from Japan. I want the original pieces that's why from Japan.
I started to collect manga I believe 8 years ago? I started with Naruto 3in1s because that was nearly about the only anime I watched and I loved it, afterwards came Death Note 2in1s and everything came trickling in from there.
Personally speaking I wouldn't recommend collecting Japanese volumes unless if you can read them just because unlike a lot of other collecting hobbies, manga typically doesn't grow in value although theres always exceptions. Then again that's just my opinion and you can do whatever you wish
I’m very impressed with your collection.
Thank you very much!
Bro....my dad doesn't lemme buy manga 😭😭, how to convince???
Welll, I never really had an issue with that. I'd just let him know how much you love manga
Here's a tip from me: I personally never asked for permission - I bought mangas with my pocket money and put them in my desk drawer and later on a shelf. It took them a few years to find out that I had some mangas. Then I said I had gotten it from my friends over the years ;D
Just tell him reading is educational unless he knows what manga really is 😂😂
@@Kymmru he knows!!
Get a job and but it with your own money :)
I'm just starting off my manga collection, I always just borrowed manga from a library before covid (for the most part) so now that I have to purchase it I am finding out it is actually really existing to own the books yourself, I hope one day I can have a awesome collection now so that's what made me click the video
When did you start collecting manga and stuff? I started pretty recently and every time I see another person’s collection I feel like I have shit taste lol 😂
It's been nearly a decade like I believe it's been 8 years? I collected before I got a job with the small amount of allowance I got and then I wanted to get a job specifically to collect more manga. And it's all right, everyone's tastes change and grow
@@Kymmru hi, i'm planning to start collecting manga, how do you recommend me ti start, collecting severa volumes of one particular series or a few volumes of multiple series?. Thank you in advance
You Sir, are truly a man of Culture!!!
Thank you!
The way he says that you have to read or watch Hunter x Hunter “if you haven’t experienced either the manga or the anime you’re doing yourself a disservice”
It’s adorable
Dang fella, impressive collection. I find it funny whenever I go through these videos that I realize I’ve only read about 2%, so far I’ve only read from my personal best to least: Elfin Lied, Komi Can’t Communicate, Rent-A-Girlfriend, 5 centimeters per second, and Tomie.
I've been loving Rent-A-Girlfriend so much. I absolutely despised it at first, I actually dropped it which I almost never ever drop series. But then the anime came out and I gave it another chance and I fell in love and caught up to the manga within a couple of days.
I like how your straight to the point but Alot of people (including me) watch these to get recommendations but I enjoy this just as much
coming from someone who also collects manga and anime you're collection good sir is incredible and it makes me want to work more hours so I can achieve something like this
Love Urusawa. One of my favorites, and so good at making you turn the page. His series manben is really fascinating if you want to see the process many creators take. Awesome collection!
I really wish one of his latest series, Billy Bat, would get translated in the west. I'd love to pick it up
Wow dude. That's the most impressive and best manga collection I have ever seen. I already have a little "collection" of idk like 150-200? But damn you really inspired me with that to start collecting for real now haha
Thanks to you, I found out about box sets and went on to order the 2nd one for One Piece on Amazon, but unfortunately it's not German and the shipping would take for ever...
Damnit.
I'm still gonna start now, thanks for the inspiration and keep going, maybe a little update video at the end of the year or in a few months? Would be awesome.
I subbed, great stuff man!
Thank you! And just take everything in stride, I collect what I can, but budgets are important to collecting too. I mean I've been steadily building this collection for nearly a decade now so it doesn't come overnight. Box sets are definitely a great way to collect long or completed series, but damn that sucks its not readily available, but hey if the shipping doesn't cost too much and you can read English fluently, I say why not just order it and itll come in when it comes in.
And Right now I'm thinking about posting a video in June. I honestly don't know how much more manga I've gotten, but I've been thinking in my head doing a collection video every 6 months would be a good way for me to look back on my collection to see how it grows from here onwards.
@@Kymmru I can pretty much read English fluently yeah, but I'm not really sure if it would be the same feeling for me and be just as good. But I think I'll buy it even though they have a different Cover colour, just because I can save money through them and they are just the best way for series like one Piece like you said. And yeah, I would love that Idea of posting a progress video every few months, would be very interesting! Also I could see and compare how much my collection has grown in that time, I would really love it! And again, thanks for the inspiration, I now started to also focus on different series I normally wouldn't have picked up, 2 or 3 days ago I picked 2 Volumes for the price of one, it was a great deal and I was happy to save some money hahaa.
It was the manga called "Arslan", it's from the same Mangaka that also made Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood. Have you probably read or heard about it and do you think it's good? I haven't read it yet I still have some other things like the last two Vinland Saga volumes that are out, but I will start reading that soon :D
Finally a short manga collection video
Lol I know. I don't get why so many people take their time on manga vids. I just want to the COLLECTION, not the opinions. haha. I feel nearly alone in that
You are putting alot of us manga collectors to shame, but i can say i am proud of having read about all of the stuff shown in the video, except for Naruto and Dragon Ball that i have to get into sometime
here just to try to find manga unknown to me and check the different releases, liked the quickness and no bullshit waste of time, also never saw no one talking of those defects on hardcover like vagabond, nice to know, earned a sub.
"I treat them very nicely" *proceeds to flip and hold up the book in unusual manner, then drop it.* lol. But I agree the spine glue is bad. I had to reapply glue on a couple of them (Not as bad as yours mind you) and they still hold up. I see a lot of other paperback large omnibus / 3-1 having the same issue. Ideally this should be a hardcover similar to Berserk Deluxe Edition, It's too many pages for a paperback. It's a reason they are cheaper compared to single volumes (granted Vagabond and other VIZBIGs are OOP). I think 2-in-1 is the sweetspot for paperback with Monster / 20th Century Boys as examples. Great collection man!
The way I died inside when the vizbig broke. I love my vizbigs but I treat them gently. The way you opend that big ass book, I could never.
I opened that big ass book like that cause it already broke on me while I was treating it gently lol
@@Kymmru I understand. I just looked like you casually yeheeted it open like that. But it is wierd they break on ypu like that. I have 13 vizbigs and they are all great. Never heard of others that had that problem, at least to that exctent.
@@Yunhotrash Yeah, it sucks man. I just got 6 more VIzbigs yesterday and 2 of the 6 already tore at the spine. I was trying to replace 3 Vagabond volumes and 3 ruruoni kenshin volumes and 2 of the Kenshin volumes glue already separated from the spine almost like that Vagabond volume. Sigh, hopefully after i get these last two kenshin volumes replaced I don't have to bother with vizbigs for a long while cause this has been a terrible experience for me thus far.
@@Kymmru damm I feel for you man. That sucks
can i just say that you sound and write like a really nice human being
Damn what a cool collection! I could only dream of having one like this! I stopped collecting like 12 years ago and am slowly back to it. The new SJ logo bothers me though because I have some older volumes from death note, naruto one piece etc that just look out of place with the newer prints.
This is super cool, you should do a video maybe talking about some of your favorites and even talk about differences between manga and anime
Awesome collection and video. It was much better structured than my own haha.
A couple of remarks:
1. There are a lot of series that you flew straight over, and I would love to hear a brief opinion on them. I know that it would increase the runtime, but a quick insight would help a lot. Especially since the few insights you gave, was very interesting.
2. You show some gripes with some of the series. Will you make separate videos on the matter? Eg Berserk?
Otherwise, keep it up. A lot of your series, is something I'm planning on getting myself down the line, so I'm interested on all the info you give is appreciated :)
Thank you!
1. If you want to ask about any opinions or insights about any series I'll be happy to answer them here.
2. Idk if I'll make any separate videos like that. And just so I'm clear, I don't have any gripes with Berserk itself, its one of my favorite series of all time. I do however take extreme issue with how Dark Horse is treating its "Deluxe" editions.
@@Kymmru I'll have to watch the video again later to sum up the series.
As for berserk, I kinda got the gist, that it was Dark Horses version of that you didn't like, not the series it self 😉
But specifically the deluxe edition. Could you elaborate on what grinds your gears with them?
@@Daidarius Sorry for the late reply, but most definitely! Now for most deluxe editions from what I've seen try to add something to the series that didn't exist before. New translations, new scans, color pages, high-quality paper. The Deluxe edition of Berserk gets none of that. Dark Horse just takes their original scans of Berserk and just slaps it in an oversized volume. Don't get me wrong, that is a nice hardcover edition, but as a "Deluxe" edition there is so much more that could have been done, ESPECIALLY for the price they are asking for. Battle Angel Alita costs roughly the same per page and it got new scans (I believe), it's printed on photocopy paper, new translations, color pages.
There are some pretty poor scans in the early Berserk volumes ( www.skullknight.net/images/gambino-print.jpg ) which is a prime example (If youtube allows me to post links.) The paper quality in these releases is nothing to ride home about. I mean I think they are better than the original, but personally, I would have preferred a photocopy type paper like the Battle Angel Alita, Gundam the Origin, and Fullmetal Alchemist Fullmetal Editions. There are color pages that were originally released in the publication of Berserk that could have been included. In hindsight the translation could be updated, a prime example being behelit is actually Beherit, or that the translation is closer to a falcon of light instead of hawk of light. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THE SOUND EFFECTS DURING VOLUMES 12-14. These volumes have LITERALLY the absolute WORST way of translation sound effects I have EVER seen in manga. They are giant blocks that get in the way of the artwork during one of the MOST important moments. in the bare minimum, they could have rescanned those THREE volumes in order to fix those terrible SFX, but instead, they leave it in.
I'm sorry to post a wall of text, but Berserk is one of my favorite series in all mediums and I hate to see this "Deluxe" edition just be a cash grab

Would love an extended version where you talk about favorite series, covers, etc
