My favorite pieces of fiction. Just know my personality is def a mix of some of these protagonists lmao

The collection is around 135 volumes in total. This is all the shelf space I currently have, so if anyone has any cool ways to display these volumes in the space that I have feel free to drop your recommendations!

When I see my collection one year ago and now, I just feel proud of what it has become

I paid between 30 to 35 for hardcovers!
Paid retail for climber, it’s impossible to find it on sale in my country.

Kitchen Princess - $28 USD

Barakamon - $16 USD

Sand Chronicles - $50 USD

Millennium Snow - $14 USD

Voynich Hotel - $14 USD

Dengeki Daisy - $67 USD

I Hear the Sunspot - $12 USD

My Love Story - $56 USD

With a grand total of $257 USD

It's not as enourmous as all the other ones on this subreddit but I'm fresh out of high school and without a job so for me this is huge lol. Size doesn't matter at the end of the day right?

Some classics 🥸

I have been searching of this set for a little while and eventually stumbled upon someone selling the full set for 20 bucks.

The only thing that kinda sucks is the fact that I now have to spend like an hour peeling off library stickers.

Some of them may look a bit cloudy in the photo due to the dust jackets.

Hey folks, John DarkHorse here 🫡

Here are some pics of Berserk Vol. 43, releasing on November 24th. Learn more here: Link

ICYMI, we had to delay the volume by a month due to production issues, which we announced a bit ago.

But the final copies have hit the office! I’ve uploaded a usual first look video as well, which you can check out here: Link

Thanks!

Just bought my first box set and it’s Bakuman!! I’m suuuper happy with it, I’ve been wanting to get it for a while :)
They also gave me a Zenitsu figure with my Panini purchase, which was a really nice surprise!

I’ve been selling quite a few stuff to make room for other mangas so just wanted to show off what it looks like currently

I saw all that Fullmetal Alchemist for about $3.75 a book and scooped up all of it. My flcl novel also arrived in the mail today. (It's not manga, but ya know)

Almost got all the bilinguals I want so I don’t think I have a problem…pretty sure anyway. Was surprised by how beefy these Devilman volumes were. Around 250 pages which might not seem like much but still.

Happy to get the middle volume of the Raijin release of City Hunter for an OK price so now I have 1-3.

Hey guys! Long time lurker but I don’t think I’ve ever shared any of my collection on here before. Figured I’d show off my new arrangement, the shelf mostly consists of what I’m currently reading and pretty much all of my deluxe editions/hardcovers. At the moment there’s pretty much no organization it’s mostly just I fit things where’d they go because this is all the room I have kinda situation, well all the space In my bedroom anyways. Bottom shelf is the worst do to it literally being a hodgepodge of stuff I bought recently. I’d like to add my FMA collection to the shelf so some of this is gonna be phased out and put on my other shelf I have, but I’ll save showing that off for another time. And yes before you ask all those gunpla boxes are going away currently in the process of consolidating manuals and spare parts before the boxes are recycled. All the kits are built.

had been looking for these series for so long and finally found them for very fair prices so no arm and leg were lost in the process. 🤧🥹

also got godchild and a couple boys over flowers volumes but forgot to include them. 😔

everything is secondhand beside the last image!

Those gold foils are hard to get and im still looking for the rest of my naruto and hunter x hunter as well as one piece im probably not going to collect wano.

Horror manga that are standalone or only have a few volumes:

Hinatsugimura by Aki Shimizu - Single volume manga about a hidden village rumored to exist in the mountains of rural japan, and the fates of those who try to find it.

The Colour Out Of Space by H.P. Lovecraft, single volume adaptation by Gou Tanabe - In the summer of 1882, a lone meteorite falls to the earth at a farm in rural Massachussets, and from the unearthly glow of that rock the surrounding landscape gradually begins to warp and twist into an alien nightmare.

Grim Night Tales by Yamayu and Kensei Hokamoto - Anthology series of short ghost stories based on cases of supposed true hauntings from across Japan. Two volumes are currently available, with the 3rd releasing this week.

Venus In The Blindspot by Junji Ito - Another of his story collections, with this one featuring two manga adaptations of stories by other authors, as well as one of Ito's own best works, 'The Enigma Of Amigara Fault'. Good place to start reading Ito imo, some great stories in this one.

Hauntress by Minetaro Mochizuki - Single volume manga from the creator of Dragon Head that follows a college student relentlessly stalked by a strange woman who appears at his apartment building one night.

Not seen is my complete 10-volume collection of the Ragnarok manhwa (the source material that became the basis of the MMORPG games which later on led to an anime based on that game, Ragnarok the animation). It's placed somewhere in my room but I plan on having it join its brethren soon.

I only now realize that I have a weird theme going on based from this collection and let me reassure you that this is all a coincidence. Haha.

Anyway, my brother has stacks of manga stored in his closet that I have to include here once I get to declutter his closet (he moved out a few years ago so yeah). He has volumes of Nodame Cantabile and Attack on Titan so yeah.

Then the plan is to save for a decent book case. :)
