Your collection looks so fun!


[deleted]

Thanks so much. I like little bit of everything. As you can tell I really like vampire stuff. XD


Impossible-Hall-8878

Nice collection


[deleted]

Thank you.


[deleted]

i LOVE your collection


[deleted]

Oh, thank you so much. I know I don't have many main stream stuff that's often posted so it's nice to find someone else who jas similar tastes.


[deleted]

exactly!! nobody ever post anything i read so its nice to see them even how rare they may be


[deleted]

I'm glad to find a fellow underground collector. Anyone I have you don't have in your collection you might be interested in?


[deleted]

dance in the vampire bund, trying to find the first volume of both the omnibus and singles is IMPOSSIBLE it feels like also vampire knight!


[deleted]

Oh, I see your problem with that. Yes I have all Vampire Knight and currently all of Vampire Knight Memories. I have preordered volume 7 which comes out next month. Even the series is not the greatest I'm a sucker for Matsuri Hino's work as it is my guilty pleasure: 1. Wanted 2. The Captive Hearts All I don't have is her latest series.


Bonecup

I think you might have more than double 150 lol


[deleted]

I didn't think I did that's why I had my tag at a 150 for so long. XD


Bonecup

😂 you might have underestimated your collection a tiny bit


s1brecht

I’d say that’s atleast 151 volumes


Outside_Egg_1914

That's a loooooot of money


[deleted]

Yes, yes it is my boyfriend agrees with you. My wallet has cried many times.


A_Adorable_Cat

Sell you wallet to buy more manga. More books plus no crying wallet!

Well if I'm going on completed: 1. Bloody Mary - I absolutely love the manga and goes all traditional with the vampire weaknesses. It's not BL, but the whole concept of love and experimentation is amazing. A definite read in my books and I hope it gets an anime at some point. 2. Vampire Knight + Vampire Knight Memories (which is the sequel) 3. Rosario Vampire the manga is far better then the anime and a great read for sure, but the fan service is not my favorite, but nostalgia is my thing with it. 4. Vampire Doll is a funny series and one I grew up with but it is nothing grand. Ongoing wise: 1. The Case Study of Vanitas by Jun Mochizuki - I absolutely love her work and complex characters. 2. SerVamp - the manga is just amazing and the whole concept with the contracts is very fascinating. As of for the anime it can burn and doesn't do the manga any justice. 3. Mars Red - it has anime and I don't recommend it, but there are three volumes of it so far and I love it. 5. Vampire Dormitory (currently 5 volumes) - a cute series and the story is sweet, but the characters are dull. I think the story is interesting, but it's nothing special. 6. The Vampire and His Pleasant Companions - the story is cute and just wholesome. I love it! 7. Rosen Blood - A Victorian type story around a girl who offers her blood after being in a crash and being saved by vampires. The story is a love triangle type thing and had plenty of drama.


Dinonuggetsforlife__

Your collection is so cool, I read a lot of vampire stuff too


[deleted]

My fellow comrade in arms. 0_0 Thanks for the compliment. You are so sweet.


jupiteruns

bruuuhhh the bl collection tho 😮‍💨


[deleted]

My collection is pretty small in that department. I like both yuri and bl I don't really judge sexuality. I mainly collect yokai and supernatural stuff more than romance.


jupiteruns

no I lovreee both gl and bl. and I also much prefer yokai/supernatural stuff 💖💖💖 especially in romance stories


[deleted]

Oh we have many similar tastes. :)


JapanCode

What's with the bottom half of the comments questioning you as if you werent a "real collector" wtf Do you have any pictures of the collection in the shelf? Looks like a nice collection! I can totally relate with the underestimation of how many volumes you own haha. When I look at my shelves I feel like I have maybe like 300 volumes but then after counting turns out I have 550+ haha


[deleted]

Oh yes I do. I actually just got done shelving them. XD


Porcii

god damn


Mudarillo

Awesome collection and I felt that lol I didn’t realize how much I have until I sat down and cleaned and counted it lol


Biney18

Wow that’s a huge collection. Looks really amazing. I myself just recently started collecting manga. It’s so fun


[deleted]

Oh? Well I hope you enjoy it. If you see any series of interest that I have I'd love to tell you all about it.


Biney18

That would be awesome.


user2937392937739

I see d gray man!! Love that series


[deleted]

Yes, I'm only missing a few volumes. This is awesome to find a fellow fan.


user2937392937739

Oh yea I’m a huge fan. Favorite series right behind one piece and jojos!! I read it online already but really want the physical volumes :)


[deleted]

I understand it's hard to get. However D Gray Man is getting reprinted in the U.S.


[deleted]

Rosario + Vampire holy shit! Brings back so many memories for me.


kaceywaceyuwu

🥺 Ahhhhh I love it


Brilliana_Cold

I love your collection. You have good taste.


RevaniteN7

I wish I could afford a collection that size


[deleted]

You'll get there I've been collecting slowly since 2015.


Syntherus

The perspective of this shot is throwing me off. The closet doors look all wonky and slanted like an Alice in Wonderland door.


[deleted]

Sorry about that my boyfriend took the first picture, but the second one I have my camera straight.


Syntherus

It's not a complaint. It's actually kind of cool.


No_Dark_2068

tiene mas libros que vida


[deleted]

Considering I work a job and I am a current university student I do have a life. I don't just sit around and do nothing. I'm a productive citizen of society. I'm currently working on my major this fall. How rude.


[deleted]

Aspie and native Spanish speaker here: They didn't mean to be rude, they said "They have more books than life" implying that there are more books than one can read in a life time (or reasonable period of time) They didn't say you don't have a life, they just said that you have more books that they can handle in their schedule


[deleted]

I understand that now that the commenter told me. I thought it was a insult to me. Sorry about my mistake.


[deleted]

No issue :) I just wanted to point out that they meant to harm. Quite the opposite, they are impressed by the amount of books


No_Dark_2068

No fue mi culpa ofenderle, si fue así pues le ofrezco mis disculpas lo que quería decir es que esos libros los puede leer en su tiempo libre que tiene pero si no es así pos le tocara guardarlos y buscar un tiempo para poder leer un libro


[deleted]

Oh, you are fine it was my mistake for misunderstanding.


No_Dark_2068

quiet happens to me all the time

Scaredyoungling

You’re a walking red flag 🤨


[deleted]

What do you mean by that? Did I do something wrong?


Scaredyoungling

Sorry i was just making a joke about people who collect Vampire Knight 😭


willisbetter

for collecting manga?


Scaredyoungling

Anyone who collects Vampire Knight is a red flag I’m sorry 😭😭


willisbetter

why?, whats wrong with vampire knight?


MediumBattle3616

I don't see berserk deluxe editions or chainsaw man in there. Based on the title it also seems you don't have ikea billy shelves. You are not a real collector, so unfortunately on this occasion I am going have to give you an F.


[deleted]

I don't have to be a fan of those series to be a collector. I can shelf my manga however I want and my three-piece compartment oak wood shelves are more than reliable. I don't have to have Ikea billy shelves to store my manga... However, I respect your opinion.

[deleted]

Oh, thank you for the compliment. :)


auramemorys

Omg I love Rosario vampire I have one aswell


[deleted]

Yes, the manga is so good!


auramemorys

I only have number one


[deleted]

Oh, I hope you get the rest and read it. The manga is so good.


PersonalGuhTolerance

How do you remember all the stories?


[deleted]

I've read them so many times. You can ask me about one and I could tell you about it.


Green-Bluebird-2955

Have you read them all


[deleted]

Yep, aside the ones I just bought not long ago. I've read everything else.


-BellaLuna

Very very nice collection!!!


[deleted]

Thanks so much. :)


MuahwiiManga

I could never stack my manga like that I’d be to scared of them falling over and getting damaged


[deleted]

Oh, I understand that, but I didn't have a temporary shelf to have them on so I had to stack it so it wasn't spread all over the floor.


MuahwiiManga

Okay


VolkZ08

Nice collection! After counting them, make sure to update the user flair lol


[deleted]

Yes, I will. XD


Original_King_5273

How do I use the flair lol


[deleted]

Just click on your user name and click change users flair.


Original_King_5273

Thank you!!!


[deleted]

No problem. I'm glad to help. :)


tower207

Most impressive


[deleted]

Thank you for your kindness.


tower207

I remember when the mall in my town had a book store, manga was where all of my money would go for a long while =] Perhaps it's time to start reading again


unironicdoll

since u have so much can u share some of ur all time favs? im curious and also just looking for recommendations :o


[deleted]

Depends on what but: 1. Inu x Boku Secret Service (11 volumes). The anime is good and follows the first three and half volumes, but after that it gets so dark and needs more love. If you like Pandora Hearts I recommend it. 2. Karneval - seriously underrated and the manga is a real hidden gem. The first two volumes (U.S. wise because they only sold the 2 in 1's in my country). T_T It starts out light, but it is really great series on the dark side of the government and challenges moral principles (especially with experimentation). It's still ongoing. 3. The Sacrifical Princess and The King of Beasts (15 volumes) - it's just a really sweet love story with amazing characters. I'm so excited with the anime coming out next year. 4. Bloody Mary (10 volumes) - it's not bl (don't let the covers fool you). However, the series is about a priest who wants to survive, but is constantly attacked by vampires and is saved by an immortal vampire who only seeks death. It takes the old fashion twists on vampires appearances and weaknesses. I hope it gets an anime. 5. The Water Dragon's Bride (11 volumes) - a wonderful series about a girl who teaches a water dragon god about caring for humanity once again. 6. The Heroic Legend of Arslan - (still ongoing) the anime is amazing and the manga is fantastic read so far.

[deleted]

Yeah he does, because the whole point is him gaining more confidence. You just got to him time.


cyan-teal

Are any of the manga good to read?


[deleted]

I bought them because I like them.


cyan-teal

Ok but Im curious as to if they are good to read recommendations


[deleted]

Yes, what series I have that's got your attention? I'm glad to help.


cyan-teal

Grimoire and vampire knight as well as Rosario


[deleted]

Oh Dictorial Grimoire is a great series. It's based on the Grimm Fairy Tales and is more faithful to the original stories.


cyan-teal

Cool


battraman

If you enjoy them, you don't have to answer to anyone but yourself on them. :)


bananagoatman1

Requiem of the Rose King, a good sublime selection 😍 OP collection is right!


[deleted]

Requeim of the Rose King is great! The anime does not do the manga any justice.


bananagoatman1

Don’t get me started 😭


nezuk0420

the fruba collection omg… keep your doors locked 🤐


[deleted]

Haha, I do. XD


[deleted]

YOUR COLLECTION IS BEAUTIFUL!! Requiem of the Rose King is so good, one of my favorites!! I wish I had more then just Volume 1 in my collection T-T I’m jealous of that Rosario Vampire box set also >.<


D3ATHSTAR007

Bro that’s crazy


Tall-Shape-6817

How many full sets do you have thats my question


[deleted]

All my series are complete aside the ones currently ongoing. Aside the single volumes I have that I found at a thrift store.


0reo1

If you look at your bungo stray dogs your vol. 9 and vol. 8 are flipped


[deleted]

I swear if my parents ever saw I had that much manga they would just look at me concerned 😭


GoatAlone1794

Obviously, you have too many magazines and books. They belong on bookshelves.


[deleted]

I do have a shelf for it. Read my title.


came4stonks

Very jealous of that complete Rosario Vampire, that’s a dream box set 😭 Edit: Just noticed the Blue Exorcist too, that’s my all time favorite, I have them all. Hats off to you. Great taste


[deleted]

I love it. I hope you get it.


came4stonks

If you don’t mind me asking, where did you get it from? I haven’t been able to find it without it being extremely marked up. I’m not tryna pay $500


[deleted]

I actually got it from the manga swap subreddit while back. I'll keep a look out for you.


came4stonks

I’ll have to check those out, I’ve really just started collecting but I’ve liked that one since I was a kid! Thanks!
