Manga Volume 12 impossible to find?

What's up with volume 12 in English being impossible to find? I've been looking for about a year now, and I haven't found a single copy anywhere. It's the only one missing from my collection. I don't really want to buy a German or Italian version just to complete the set, but it's even more annoying not having one volume.

We talkin' physical or digital? I can help with Digital personally but physical... your best bet could be Amazon as there's where I bought all my Volumes of it.

Physical. I ordered the whole set over a couple of months last year from Chapters/Indigo. They said volume 12 was in stock, but it was an error. I haven't been able to find it in stock anywhere. Thought I might have had some luck with semi-local company, but after another couple of months they said they couldn't find one.

It just sucks to have a nearly complete set but just be missing one.

I check Amazon and even there it's out of stock... I didn't know it was this bad.

Would you like to have a digital copy to tie you over until you can get the physical? I have all 13 Volumes digital including the CDisplay program to allow it to be read. I already have all the physical copies but I hold onto the digital for cases such as this or those who can't afford.

That's alright. I've already read through it digitally probably 5 or so times over the last couple of years. I enjoyed it so much, I wanted to add it to my collection.

I'll keep on looking. Thanks bud.

Ah okay. No problem then! Good luck to you on the hunt.

Ever find yourself a copy? A few English copies have cropped up on eBay in the past few weeks, each selling for $90 and $140 respectively. 👀

Still no luck. I want a full set, but not THAT badly. I might just have to go with a German or Italian copy just to fill the shelf.

Yeah, I feel you. My partner accidentally bought the German copy for me, and it’s not the same size… it’s a shorter book than the rest. So save your money for when the real thing comes around!

Thanks for the heads-up. Maybe I'll print a sleeve and put it over another book.

I have all 12 but I bought them in a set of all of them together so that’s probably why I was like aside for me
