[@justarandomweebyay5372]

@@hakobo2744 you don't need to learn Japanese to have fun in Japan. it depends on where u go but almost all places that people typically visit are very english-friendly (not sure if that's a word), just pick up some words that might come in handy during travel and you'll be good to go But yeah I'd definitely recommend learning a new language (it doesn't necessarily have to be Japanese, just go with what u like) As for "was English hard to learn", yeah it was pretty tough in the beginning but watching cartoons and slowly transitioning into books and movies helped a lot. Personally I think it's harder for Japanese to learn English than for English speakers to learn jp (the amount of grammatical verb forms are insane and I think it'll take you a very long time until u pick up the basic kanjis, unless your Chinese, Japanese is very "anti-phonetic", if you don't know how to read the word, u just don't, it's not like other latin based languages that u can just guess the sound)

I loved that you mentioned Facebook Marketplace. That place and Kijiji are my go-to for manga. (Please note that I’m Canadian so the price for a normal size manga is 13$ here) I found in a span of a month I found for 10$ I got 21 volumes and for 80$ I got 100 volumes. Of course I had no idea what the series were and the 10$ ones smelled like weed for a few months, but I managed to find so many Tokyo Pop manga it was great.

I have a Facebook account but it doesn’t let me use it . Do you know how to fix it?

[@tsukiakari3493]

Tip 1.. If only I could buy from Right Stuff. There are a few online shops in my country that bring manga and it's usually market place or higher. Volumes that are $13 being sold for $18. Sales do come and some are below market price without a sale, too. But I do get discount codes often, like 25% off so that's good. So I tend to put aside the more expensive volumes for once a discount code comes.

[@SeyidAr]

I don't read a lot of manga but when i do, i read them online. Then i got the idea to order some manga books and compare the reading experience and i have to admit that reading them physically is completely different from reading them on a screen. On paper you get almost captivated by the artwork. I started with the first 6 volumes of "Vagabond" in the Vizbig format and the whole "Pluto" series. I also bought "Uzumaki" which is a very interesting and different read. I think, instead of throwing out my money every month for useless junk that holds no value, i will invest about 50-100 dollars in mangas each month.

My favorite manga is GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka, and that's been out of print for a looong time (even though the sequel manga is on going in Japan.) So it being out of print doesn't mean it ain't good.

I wanna start a Manga collection, but I'm not sure if I am doing it because I want to read them cuz I like them, or cuz I like the idea of having them on my shelf. I watch anime already so I'm thinking of getting Manga that are animes I've watched, but I can't tell if I'm actually excited to read it or not. I feel like I just don't actually feel excited enough to read it and that I just want the collection.

[@becc8617]

I will admit, I read a LOT of manga online. I feel pretty guilty about not supporting the mangakas but if I LOVE it - I buy it. Right now I'm buying Dorohedoro, only have 5 more to go!

when he brought up yona of the dawn being i good manga, i knew i was watching the right video. Yona of the dawn is so underrated but so good.

[@Scarred_Hero15]

@@FlipOtaku It's hard to say they are all really good. Black Clover is probably my favorite though by a very small margin.

[@chimckenshrimp9414]

A personal tip it would be to buy the editions that contain 2 or 3 volumes in one single book, its the cheaper way if you are a budget manga reader like me

[@gojo6418]

That's what I would do too but there's no 2 in 1 here so I buy them individually yeah it's expensive when you buy individually

[@chimckenshrimp9414]

@@gojo6418 there are some mangas that have the 2 in 1 edition too, like deathnote black edition, or kuroko no basket, but yeah, some cool mangas like opm for example have no 3in1 or 2in1 editions so its expensive

[@Oceaniac]

My manga collection so far: Death note 1-12 + vol 13 Death Note L Change the World Death Note LA BB Murder Case Monster perfect edition: 1-6 Attack on Titan: 1-32 AOT Before the Fall: 1-9 AOT No Regrets: 1-2 AOT No Regrets: Colour edition AOT Lost Girls: 1-2 Black Butler: 1-3 Ajin: 1-3 Yona of The Dawn: 1-6 The Way of the Househusband: 1-4 Dragonball: 1-15 (3-in-1 editions) I started collecting 20th century boys a few years ago but never got round to properly reading it so I sold what I had to my friend and I’m planning to buy the perfect edition to go along with my Monster perfect edition. I also read digitally. Out of my major digital reads (so not including shorts or one shots) I’m caught up with Kaguya Sama, I read all of Chainsaw Man and Inside Mari. I’m currently reading Tokyo Ghoul. I’ve been reading a lot of webtoons since summer last year, some of the prominent ones include: Bastard (my first webtoon), Sweet Home, True Beauty, Remarried Empress, Your Throne and White Blood. I read season 1 of Noblesse but dropped it since. I’m planning to read Tower of God once I catch up on collecting Yona, finish Tokyo Ghoul and I’m planning on starting some other manga like Dr Stone, BNHA, Oyasumi Punpun and possibly Vinland Saga since I recently finished the anime and would like to see where it goes next.

There's a place here in London called Forbidden Planet that has 3 for 2 on pretty much all Viz Media manga and light novels, it's amazing. It's a shame that covid decimated their stock though, went in the other week and they didn't have any serieses I was reading ;-;

I thought bloom into you volume 8 released a while ago? Well im currently in the process of buying all of the citrus manga (rip the rushed ending :/). Im also really thinking about picking up bloom into you manga but I think I will have to decide against it. Ive already read all of it, and I think I prefer citrus but only by a little!

[@ashlymatio]

@@winstonsuni1346 I think it's coming out somewhere in August(at least the English release :) )and personally I love Citrus but prefer Bloom Into You by a lot because it was really well-written in my opinion. And yee i love how the citrus manga looks and it's true that the ending did feel rushed :( but at least we got Citrus+ right lol And I suggest picking up the bloom into you manga!! Bloom into you is my favorite series of all time so I think that's why I'm encouraging it- Then there's also the bloom into you Sayaka light novel spin-off which is really good :D

I really need to start ordering manga I just buy it usually at Barnes and Nobel or any nearby bookstores and I do like supporting those stores but my wallet 😭

[@velocityturtle7237]

The bad thing about collecting, is when you first start its. Go GO GO GOGOGO. Then you have hundreds of volumes and you have read maybe 50 volumes and you dont have any money to buy the series you actually like so then you get bored of the hobby or maybe stressed because you feel something will go out of stock so you stop collecting all together. Comic books was that for me so im trying to take manga slow and steady.

[@sgtOOX]

Good vid man. I'm just starting out collecting, great advice both for buying and keeping it in moderation. Have Blame! Ghost in the Shell, Yotsuba, Alita, Goodnight PunPun and Akira. I have a metric ton of actual books as well, and I've been collecting and reading those in nice bindings such as Easton Press and Folio Society. Trying to limit and be real picky about the manga I get. But damn some of it is so expensive as you mention. Been trying to swipe Sandman Absolutes and can't find them anywhere under hundreds and hundreds of dollars for the set. JoJos, 20th Century Boys, and Drohedoro are a few more I'm keeping eyes out for.
